More and more college students are taking part-time jobs. Some people argue that part-time jobs take up too much time that students have no time to focus on their studies, whereas others think that doing part-time jobs should be encouraged in that students can get rich experience from the jobs. As far as I concern, I think we should encourage students to do part-time jobs for the following reasons.
越来越多的大学生去外面兼职。一些人认为兼职占用了学生太多的学习时间；另一些则认为应该鼓励学生去兼职，因为他们能够从中获取丰富的经验。就我看来，我们应该鼓励学生出去兼职，原因如下：
First of all, part-time job experience provides the opportunities for students to know about what jobs are really like and enhance their personal abilities. What’s more, such experience can help them be prepared psychologically for their future jobs. Second, the part-time jobs can enrich students’ daily life activities and help them to make more friends. If one has friends from different fields, these friends will help him with his personal development in the future. Third, taking part-time jobs can reduce the financial pressure. Many college students still ask their parents for money. This can be a heavy burden to some families. But if the students can do some part-time jobs and make money on their own, the family pressure can be relieved to some extent. Last but not least, part-time jobs can help students to find out their strengths and shortcomings. When they overcome the difficulties, they will become more confidence.
首先，兼职能提供机会让学生们了解工作到底是怎么一回事，提高个人能力。其次，兼职也能让他们对未来的工作做好心理准备。第二，兼职能够丰富学生们的课余生活，帮助他们结识更多的朋友。如果一个人有不同领域的朋友，那么，这些朋友会在他未来的个人发展中帮助他们。第三，做兼职能够减轻经济压力。许多大学生还在问家里面要生活费。对于某些家庭来说，这也许是个很沉重的负担。但如果大学生能出去做兼职，自己挣钱，家庭的经济压力就能有所缓解了。最后一点，兼职能帮助大学生们找到自己的优缺点。当他们克服困难时，就会变得更加自信。
To sum up, doing part-time jobs has more advantages than disadvantages. The students can not live in the ivory tower forever. They will meet the challenges from this cruel world sooner or later. And doing part-time job is the first step to walk in this society.
总的来说，兼职利大于弊。学生不能永远活在自己的象牙塔里面。他们迟早都要面对来自外面残酷世界的挑战。而兼职，则是踏入这个社会的第一步。
