问题     Major choice has long been a hot issue for university students. Some people believe that it is not proper to ask students to choose a major right before they go to university and they should be given at least one year to try different courses so as to find their field of interest. Others, however, do not think so. What’s your opinion?
    Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:
    Should Students Decide on a Major before University Studies?
选项
答案 Should Students Decide on a Major before University Studies? Chinese students have to choose a major when applying for universities and most of them have no opportunity to change that decision. Many people, however, begin to question whether this is the best practice. I would argue that students should be allowed at least a year to find the major they are really fond of. For one thing, high school students have little knowledge of majors at universities, since they only learn fundamental knowledge of basic subjects. They may choose astronautics just because of the Shenzhou VII, only to find that the basic skills involved in this major are just what they are not good at. If they are allowed to make that decision in the second year of university, they can get more advice from professors and those juniors and seniors. For another, the choice of high school students may be largely swayed by their parents, who tend to choose those so-called lucrative majors in the hope that their children can get a job with a decent salary, disregarding whether they are interested in it or not. In the meantime, during the first year, they can develop varieties of skills by learning different disciplines. The problem-solving skill and analytical skill acquired in this process will prove invaluable in their future learning. In conclusion, students should be given chances to make a wise decision on their major, which may determine their careers in the future.
解析     本题是一个对比选择型题目，提出了两种观点：学生应该在上大学前选定专业和学生应该在入学后用一定的时间考虑选什么专业。要求考生用自己的想法或经历对此问题进行分析比较，然后选择其中一个观点，给出理由进行论证。
    思路1：学生应该在入学前选定专业。
    首先，这样可以让学生一入学就有一个明确的目标，不至于漫无目的地学习，浪费时间。其次，如果给学生一学期或一年的时间随意选课，然后考虑专业的话，可能会给教学管理带来很大麻烦。
    思路2：学生应该在入学后有一定时间考虑选什么专业。
    首先，高中生学习的只是基础学科的基础知识，对大学的专业并无了解，因此选择专业的时候没有很好的依据，可能所选的专业并不适合自己。其次，学生的专业选择也常受到父母的左右，所选专业往往并不是自己喜欢的。最后，花一些时间学习各门学科而非主攻一门，能拓展思路，培养各种能力。
    范文选取思路2，在解释原因的同时提出一些具体可行的解决方案。
