专八题目：

Money First or Knowledge First？

专八范文：

Everyone knows the importance of money and knowledge．Everyone must have money to fulfill their necessities and knowledge to make them respectful and help them gain money． But which one should be put in the first place in the particular college time? Some college students set up their own business, some speculate inthe stock market, and some start their own studios．

每个人都知道知识和金钱的重要性%TBXmMd-E-D-F*L|b.T。人们必须用金钱来满足自己的生活必须，知识能够让人们受人尊敬，并获得财富pJ!qxDvGw.。但是，在大学期间，哪一个应该排在首位呢？许多大学生建立了自己的企业，许多还投机了股票市场，许多开设了自己的工作室[MW+kZi5%qT(jR7xu。

Undoubtedly, those students will not only earn enough money to fend for themselves, but also become fledged in the real world．However, I think college students should always concentrate on acquiring knowledge instead of seeking fortune in the particular state of our lives．

毫无疑问，学生不仅能够通过挣钱来养活自己，他们还会变得更加成熟.&^ok!69g3r5J|U3=l#。但是，我认为大学生应该专注于学业，而不是挣钱qzQ3EY~5%[oPj。

Firstly, though knowledge can help you gain money, money can not buy you knowledge． For the majority of us, college time is a golden time for acquiring knowledge． Once we miss the golden time, we will not be compensated in the future．In this particular episode of our lives, we receive allowance from our parents, are not disturbed by the chores of housework, and are assisted by experienced teachers and classmates．And I can not imagine which stage of our lives is more favorable than this episode．The golden time for studies can be best illustrated by a conversation with an elder friend． He established a training school years ago and did make a fortune． But he always takes me into confidence that he wants to tear himself from thebusiness and further studies in graduate school．He also admonishes me that I should work harder and harder, otherwise I will regret one day．

首先，尽管知识能够帮助我们获得财富，但是，金钱却买不来知识l_]uJ-vV_|~0A。对于绝大多数人来说，大学时光是获得知识的黄金时期YS47~[=oRQc.B7^t9s。我们一旦失去了这一时期，我们将无法偿还*TsVx!uID~]d。在我们人生的特定阶段，我们从家长那里得到了许可，我们不需要做家务，我们有资深老师和同学的帮助Bh1r,u5By.t。我无法想象，人生中还有比这更珍贵的日子吗-z*U;)=|k[hTd=%bmCM=。学习的黄金时间能够从一位年长者的对话中体现]=E+n3C7dMxW%2]。几年前他建立了一家培训学校，挣了大钱)Wk)KKHuhKNFx。但是，他总是让我相信他希望能够从经商和学习中分离出来+xNxc7y~,,wsj。他还教导我要努力学习，否则将来后悔D@[Jfm]lw3Cj)|VjTO。

Secondly, while college students can make some money in college time, they can not absorb themselves in their business wholeheartedly, which means that they are less likely to succeed in the corporate world than those who need not worry about studies．According to college curricula, students have to finish some compulsory courses and selective courses．They have to pass all required courses before getting diplomas． For some students from particular departments, they have to make more efforts than students pursuing other degrees．Accordingly, if college students run business, they will not only bear pressures imposed by studies,but also face the fierce competition in the market． Besides, college students are unfledged in comparisonwith other seasoned businessmen．Is it wise to take the risk of running business in college?

第二，大学生可以在大学期间挣钱，他们无法全身心地投入到商业当中，这就意味着，比起那些不用学习的人士来说，他们成功的几率很小Mcj5B,]oD^xo。根据学校的课程安排，学生需要完成必修课和选修课的内容atlhMMiW!PMRIwyYR。在毕业之前，他们需要通过所有要求的考试+JlJ0PK(t,I*Rz&Zl。对于那些特殊专业的学生来说，他们要比那些只为拿证书的学生更要努力Y=V4FgTHYM_&bmy[H~t。如果大学生经商，他们不仅要承受学习的压力，还要适应激烈的市场竞争f)!]F.IS7Y!-g*;M%。此外，比起那些商人来说，大学生还不成熟e#)HC]pf20EG3。大学生经商是否明智呢？

In sum, college years is the golden period for studies in one’s life, and no one can afford to miss it． While college students have to make efforts to earn credits, and turn out to be unfledged, they had betterconcentrate on studies．

总结，大学是学习的黄金时间，人们不应该浪费它m-^VLCqB~[t。大学生应该努力学习，赚取学分，大学生还不够成熟，他们最好应该把精力集中在学习上Bb%jpBeAmCI。
