　　1 .Graduate Study or a Job

　　To land a decent job, or to pursue graduate study? It is really a dilemma when the alternatives are presented in front of us.

　　It is beyond doubt that some active and ambitious students will not hesitate a moment to choose the former .They are eager to demonstrate their abilities and value . They assert that a college education is enough. Think of Bill Gates, the Microsoft Chairman, whose success raises doubts about the worth of a MBA degree.

　　As far as I'm concerned ,I believe that we have every reason to prefer the latter choice in such an era when knowledge is expanding at an astonishing speed .The demands for us to promote both our knowledge and skills are becoming increasingly urgent . So we should keep exploring in the treasure house of knowledge to enrich ourselves and make us more adapted to the competitive society . Needless to say ,a graduate study is a wise choice . If we hurry into the society before we get well prepared , we will only find that our knowledge is so limited in this increasingly competitive society.

　　Keep on learning and you will never regret!

　　2. Advantages and Disadvantages of the Mobile Phone

　　With the rapid economic development, the mobile phone has found its way to campuses and a host of students take advantage of this wonderful gadget to communicate with each other. This phenomenon gives rise to this question: What are the advantages and disadvantages of the mobile phone?

　　It is widely believed that it greatly facilitates students' campus life. Many instances could be found to support this type of opinion. A graduating student in our university bought a mobile phone in the course of hunting for his job. He told me that with the mobile phone he could easily keep in touch with the employer of the company he intends to work with and would not miss any opportunities.

　　The mobile phone , however, also has many disadvantages. For instance, the ringing of the mobile phone often disturbs the teacher's teaching and other students' learning.

　　Personally, the advantages of the mobile phone outweigh the disadvantages of it as long as we don't interfere with others while using it.

　　3. Salary or Interest

　　Upon graduation, many college students are confronted with the problem of the career choice. It is truly a tough choice. Students' opinions differ greatly in this issue. Some hold that priority should be given to the interest in one's job, while others take the opposing view and they claim that salary is the most critical factor influencing their career choices.

　　As to myself, I prefer the latter view. A well-paid job exerts a tremendous fascination on a great number of people, with no exception to me. Although it might be impossible to measure the value of one’s job in terms of money, salary counts most when I choose my future career. In my belief, our career choices largely depend on how and where we have been brought up. I come from a poor urban family and my parents were both laid-off workers. In order to finance my tuition, they have been working hard for the past four years. As the only son in my family, I have to shoulder the burden of supporting my family.

　　In short, salary is the first and only consideration in my choice of career.
