   2) make clear your own viewpoint, and 3) justify your stand.
   In your essay, make full use of the information provided in the text. If you use more than three consecutive words from the text, use quotation marks (" ").
   You should write 160 -200 words on the ANSWER SHEET.
   An invisible border divides those arguing for computers in the classroom on the behalf of students, career prospects and those arguing for computers in the classroom for broader reasons of radical educational reform.
   There are some good arguments for a technical education given the right kind of student. Many European schools introduce the concept of professional training early in order to make sure children are properly equipped for the professions they want to join. It is, however, presumptuous to insist that there will only be so many jobs for so many scientists, so many businessmen, so many accountants. Besides, this is unlikely to produce the needed number of every kind of professional in a country as large as ours and where the economy is spread over so many states and involves so many international corporations.
   But, for a small group of students, professional training might be the way to go since well-developed skills, all other factors being equal, can be the difference between having a job and not. Of course, the basics of using any computer these days are very simple. It does not take a lifelong acquaintance to pick up various software programs. If one wanted to become a computer engineer, that is, of course, an entirely different story. Basic computer skills take—at the very longest—a couple of months to learn. In any case, basic computer skills are only complementary to the host of real skills that are necessary to becoming any kind of professional. It should be observed, of course, that no school, vocational or not, is helped by a confusion over its purpose.

答案 The debate in the article focuses on why schools try to equip their students with computer-related skills. Some believe schools conducting such professional training can help students gain an edge in the job market, while others argue that computer education is merely complementary to other real skills. In my opinion, computer training can help us keep up with the ever-changing world, but we shall not rely too much on it to find a better job. On one hand, computer skills are essential for young people to learn new things and follow the latest trend. Our efficiency can be greatly improved by utilizing computer technologies. On the other hand, basic computer skills can be easily mastered by almost every young man, so job seekers with no profound and professional skills like computer engineers won’t enjoy any competitive edge. From what I discussed above, we can draw the conclusion that computer education is more to let us know the world better than to help us find a good job.
