问题     Some people who have been successful in the society don’t attribute their success to the theoretical knowledge they learned from their university. Do you agree that theoretical knowledge is not as valuable as expected?
选项
答案 It is understandable that some young people today drop out of college, because there are successful entrepreneurs or business leaders who did not complete a university degree. In my view, what students have learnt at university is vitally important to a fulfilling career. By learning theories at university, people can gain a full understanding of concepts and principles of different subjects, so they can build expertise in their professions. Many theories have developed on the basis of empirical knowledge, so these theories have practical implications and people who are familiar with theories can deal with practical problems at work. For example, a psychiatrist cannot identify effective therapies, unless he or she attends some university courses to gain an insight into all theories about the causes of different mental health problems. Academic study can also improve the problem-solving abilities of learners and empower them to exercise creative potential. University students need to collect information on different subject matters to finish essays and reports, so they gain experience in analysing different unfamiliar matters and tackling these problems effectively. When they embark on their careers, they will show confidence in doing research when problems surface, and come up with corresponding solutions. In contrast, those people who did not go to university may receive some practical training to deal with some general tasks, but they may be helpless in the face of unusual problems. Meanwhile, we must recognise the fact that theoretical knowledge is not the only determinant of success. Many successful people have some personality traits in common. An optimistic, hardworking and sociable person is able to overcome difficulties and cooperate with others to achieve success. Another factor might be the social network, by which people can draw upon ideas of experts, investors and business managers, such as those managers who understand how to maintain a good relationship with clients, suppliers and government officials. This kind of knowledge may not be available in textbooks. In a word, higher education has been undervalued, and people can handle many problems effectively and creatively with knowledge they have acquired at university. On the other hand, we need to admit that personality and social relationships are also essential to success.
