[参考答案]

We had a discussion on why we should go to university recently. This is what it shows.

Some students have many colorful dreams and regard universities as most interesting places. However, the university life in reality would often make them feel very disappointed. Some students think good jobs and higher pay will certainly result from a college education and therefore, it’s easier to obtain higher social positions. Yet after graduation, many of them would find the jobs aren’t the ones they like and the pay is no higher than they expect.

But I think one of the most important reasons why university still has a strong attraction is that a university provides good chances for those who are eager to learn more knowledge.
