  托福考试作文题目:

  University students should be required to take history courses no matter what field they study.

  学习任何学科的大学生都应该被要求学习历史课,是否认同?

  (2013年9月29日 = 2009年6月13日)

  思路拓展:

  历史学习的利好:

  1. 阅读本身就是快乐的,学习本身就是一种成长。阅读经典史书,无论是典故,传记,还是语录,都是一种开拓视野,丰富知识,增加文化底蕴的过程。

  2. 很多精英,无论是文体明星,还是商业巨子,他们的成功的重要因素之一就是大学期间博览群书,钻研历史。学习历史不仅增强了他们的文化底蕴,更加教会他们以史为鉴,理性思考。换言之,他们不断借鉴史书,积累成功的方法,学习失败的经验。当他们走出校园,搏击商海,拓展事业的时候,从历史学习中汲取精神力量帮助他们避免犯类似的错误,危机中做出明智选择。

  为何不学习历史:

  我承认,有人也许对于我的立场持怀疑态度。

  有人认为,大学所有专业的学生都被要求学习历史也许不可取,因为不是人人都对历史感兴趣,历史学习不一定对于每个专业的学生都有实际的利好。例如,对于植物学专业的学生而言,学习历史可能耽误时间,分散精力,因此,积累历史知识对于未来的就业可能影响不大。

  但是,我想反驳的是:对于历史学习的兴趣是可以培养的,通过学习历史获得的精神乐趣,培养的辩证思维对于每个人的未来都是有利好的影响。
