Why do you think people attend college or university? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.　　People attend colleges or universities for a lot of different reasons. I believe that the three most mon reasons are to prepare for a career, to have new experiences, and to increase their knowledge of themselves and the world around them.　　Career preparation is being more and more important to young people. For many, this is the primary reason to go to college, They know that the job market is petitive. At college, they can learn new skill for careers with a lot of opportunities.

For many, this will be their last chance for a long time to learn about something that doesn39。t want to cook a lot of different dishes, it39。t imagine the process of taking some frozen fruit and ice from the freezer, adding some lowfat yogurt from a plastic cup and some juice from a can in the refrigerator, and whipping up a lowfat smoothie in the blender!　　Our lifestyle is fast, but people still like good food. What new food preparation technology has given us is more choices. Today, we can prepare food that is more convenient, healthier, and of greater variety than ever before in history. 托福考試寫作范文4　　It has been said, “Not every thing that is learned is contained in books.” Compare and contrast knowledge gained from experience with knowledge gained from books.

Having a factory is not worth that rise.　　Of course, more jobs will be created by the factory. Our population will grow. To acmodate more workers, more homes and stores will be needed. Do we really want this much growth, so fast? If our town is going in growth, I would prefer slow growth with good planning. I don39。s no sense of munity here. People don39。t look out for each other, and they don39。t put down roots in the munity. They don39。re not willing to get involved in trying to improve the quality of life. If someone has a petition to put in a new streetlight, she has a very hard time getting a lot of people to sign.　　They don39。t get involved in improving the schools because they don39。t see the connection between themselvest try to support others around them. They don39。t see them for a few days. They39。s not a lot of munity support for individuals.　　Neighbors don39。 children are cutting across someone39。s no friendly way of casually mentioning the problem.
