问题     It was reported in the press some time ago that a few second- and third-year students in a provincial university decided to try their hand at business in order to get prepared for the future. They opened six small shops near their university. Their teachers and classmates had different opinions about this phenomenon. Some thought that the students’ business experience would help them adapt better to society after graduation, while others held a negative view, saying that running shops might occupy too much of the students’ time and energy which should otherwise be devoted to their academic study.

答案                                Should University Students Go in for Business?
    It is an old topic of debate whether college students should take part—time jobs. Before the issue is settled, a more controversial problem has arisen. In a recent report, some second-and third-year university students opened small shops near their university. This has provoked quite a bit of discussion among their teachers and classmates. Some sided with the student businessmen, while others took the opposite stand. Personally, I disapprove such practice.
    To begin with, doing business while studying in university is often at odds with the principal goal of receiving higher education. Admittedly, we need university students who are well prepared for their social roles when they enter society upon graduation, but this does not mean they must obtain such preparation at the cost of their academic study. Doing business entails the investment of a lot of time and energy. As a consequence, there is no guarantee for the students involved to attend to lessons and assignments the way they are supposed to. This has been proved by a considerable amount of complaints from some teachers who are annoyed by frequent absences in their class.
    Moreover, doing business is not the sole path to social experience. As we know, the strong argument for business practice is that the university students can have direct contact with society and get to know social needs and expectations so as to improve their social adaptability. To them, the social knowledge they may acquire in the course of business practice, which is not provided by college education, is supposedly most invaluable after they graduate. However, it is by no means sufficient to ascribe the plausibility of business practice to the availability of social contact. There are other ways by means of which they can come by the much—valued social knowledge. For instance, they can take part in some extracurricular programs and social practices in vacations. The majority of students who have had such experience are said to benefit a lot from those forms of short—term social contact.
    For the above reasons and those not mentioned here, I insist that university students should not go in for business. Primarily, it is not that doing business is wrong or useless, but that it may spoil one’s university education due to its huge demand for time and energy.
