历年GRE考试Issue题库分析与提纲三十八
34. "Instead of requiring students to take courses in a variety of disciplines--that is, courses ranging from the arts and the humanities to the physical and biological sciences--colleges and universities should allow students to enroll only in those courses that will help prepare them for jobs in their chosen fields. Such concentration is necessary in today’s increasingly work-oriented society."与其要求学生们选修各种各样的学科----从艺术和人文科学到物理和生物科学----大学还不如允许学生们仅仅去选择那些有助于他们今后工作的学科。这种集中在当今这个工作至上的社会是必要的。
1. To begin with, schools should attach enough importance to courses that can help students prepare for jobs in their chosen fields.
2. However, work-oriented courses is never incompatible with other courses such as arts, humanities and the like, which also play an important role in one career success.
3. Inter-disciplinary study is crucial for the improvement of either discipline.
4. Though courses of a wide range of disciplines should be made compulsory, sufficient freedom should be granted to students.
学科

39. "The intellectual benefits of attending a university or college are vastly overrated: most people could learn more by studying and reading on their own for four years than by pursuing a university or college degree."
大学学习的好处被过分的高估了：大多数人如果通过研究和阅读的方式自学四年的话，会比追求一个大学学位学到的更多。
Disagree
1. Schools offer systematical curriculum, qualified staff, libraries, facilities and so on, which are not available to individuals who study on their own.
2. Studying with peers arouses competition and cooperation. Compulsory studies avoids laziness.
3. Qualified degrees help get a job offer more easily.
4. However, degree does not mean everything. It is just a symbol. Even if you have a college degree, you still have to work hard in order achieve career success.
