There is a new buzzword among college graduates: Fleeing Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou—the three largest cities in China where they once planned to find a niche. Is it better to flee the big cities? Supporters and objectors’ points of view are as like as an apple to an oyster. The following are opinions from both sides. Read the excerpts carefully and write your response in about 300 words, in which you should:
1. summarize briefly the opinions from both sides:
2. give your comment.

Supporters:
Big cities like Beijing and Shanghai used to be alluring to college graduates. Today, although many graduates still find them irresistible, an increasing number of students choose to go back to their second- and third-tiered hometowns. The high cost of living, including high house prices as well as a shortage of educational and medical resources, is driving some college graduates out of big cities like Beijing and Shanghai. To some extent, young people’s aspiration to flee is delivering a signal to the government: more efforts should be made to create jobs and improve the business environment.
Air pollution is also one of the important reasons. In one of the recent fleeing accounts, an editor and blogger named Wang Jing said, "It’s almost cliche to complain about the air quality in big cities such as Beijing: it’s terrible and everyone knows it. People here just deal as best they can. " And as bad as that is on the bad days, it’s worth noting that average life expectancy in Beijing last year stood at 81.12 years. That compares admirably with 80.6 years in New York City, and 84.4 years for men in the nicer parts of London. Bad air is bad, but it seems that people do, as Wang Jing writes, "deal".
Recently, Beijing is experiencing its worst air pollution on record. The municipal government has maintained its orange pollution alert, the second-highest alert level, for the seventh consecutive day as severe smog strikes China’s capital. Many college graduates are also starting to get worried that the air is affecting their health and are considering relocating to cleaner cities.
Objectors:
The population in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou continues to rise rapidly, and this fact may counter the argument that the so-called fleeing big city phenomenon is not something that is happening, but that it is rather a symptom people’s aspiration to flee from pressures of living.
However, despite the high cost of living and heavy pressure, many people still try to rush into big cities. What is behind this paradox? The major reason is that big cities offer more opportunities for work and career development for young people. At least at the present stage of the country’s development, big cities seem more attractive in many aspects than second- and third-tiered cities.
One of China’s human resources service companies recently issued general statistics on online recruitment, which revealed that 61 percent of college graduates who were born since the 1990s choose to leave first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou for second- or third-tier cities when it comes to working and living. However, an online survey alone is not enough to prove that 61 percent of college graduates are really fleeing or are ready to flee from big cities.
There is a line between the real action of fleeing and the wish to flee. Obviously, there is no such distinction between action and aspiration in the survey. Many students are actually expressing their dissatisfaction with their current situation in these big cities by saying that they want to leave. If it is true that 61 percent of college graduates are fleeing these cities, it would be impossible to see an ever swelling population in these cities.

答案
Is It Better to Flee the Big Cities? To stay and fight for a brighter future in larger cities, or to stay in smaller cities for a relatively comfortable life? This question plagues many of young students who are struggling to seek a successful life through self-diligence. The risk is that fighting and struggling in big cities cannot necessarily ensure successful life. On the other hand, these young people may not feel satisfied with the comfortable and slow life in smaller cities. Meanwhile, some young college graduates who once fled big cities are streaming back. They are still in helpless situations, and might feel a bit bitter, but ultimately, they are back. Is it better to flee the big cities? Supporters and the objectors have totally different views. Supporters hold the view that college graduates are driving out of big cities by high cost of living and air pollution. Objectors argue that metropolises are more attractive for them than second- and third-tiered big cities since opportunities are plentiful for college graduates. As far as I am concerned, wherever one decides to go, there are pros and cons. Indeed, big cities tend to offer more opportunities, but people will also meet more challenges and face more pressure. However, if one is able to transform pressure into his or her internal driving force, he will strike a balance between career and life. For some young people, they’ll feel repentant if they leave big cities without first trying to fight for a bright future. Life pressure exists everywhere. To face up to difficulty, pressure and all kinds of challenges on the way forward in one’s lifetime is what a brave person should overcome. Maybe one more step forward and you’ll reach success. One has to face various choices in his lifetime. To stay or to flee, everyone facing this choice needs to take it into serious consideration before taking action. It’s not supposed to be a gamble on one’s life, but everyone in this dilemma has to take full responsibility for his or her own fate.
