Your school is going to limit the number of the hours that students can work at part-time jobs in order to improve their academic performance. Do you think this is a good idea? Why or why not?
译文：
你的学校打算限制学生做兼职工作的时长，以提高他们的学业成绩。你认为这是个好主意吗？为什么？
参考答案一
认同这种做法
解题思路：
从 “增加学习时间” 和 “减少精力分散” 两个角度阐述限制兼职时长对提高学业成绩的积极作用。
理由一
限制兼职时长能让学生有更多时间投入到学习中，用于复习、预习以及完成作业。
理由二
减少兼职时间可以避免学生因过多兼职工作而精力分散，从而更专注于学业。
From my perspective, I think it’s a good idea to limit the time that students spend on part-time jobs.
First of all, it allows students to allocate more time to their studies; they can review what they've learned in class, preview upcoming lessons, and complete assignments. However, if they spend too much time on their jobs, they wouldn’t have enough time to finish their schoolwork, which will probably influence their studies negatively.
In addition, it can prevent students from getting distracted. You know, juggling both work and study can be challenging, and too much focus on a part-time job may cause students to lose concentration on their academic tasks. By limiting the hours, students can better direct their energy towards their studies.
参考答案二
认同这种做法
思路解析
从 “促进身心健康” 和 “培养正确优先级观念” 的角度展开，说明限制兼职时长对学生学业和个人发展的益处。
理由一
合理限制兼职时长能让学生有足够的休息时间，保持良好的身心健康状态，更有利于学习。
理由二
让学生明白学业在现阶段的重要性，学会将学业放在优先位置，从而提高学业成绩。
The way I see it, it makes a lot of sense to limit the time that students spend on part-time jobs.
The main reason is that it’s good for students' physical and mental well-being. Doing part-time jobs can be time-consuming and energy-consuming, so without such jobs, students can get enough rest, which is essential for maintaining good health and their long-term study.
Moreover, this limitation helps students learn to prioritize things they have to do because it makes them realize that their studies should come first at this stage of their lives. By focusing more on academics, they are more likely to improve their grades and get into a better graduate school or get a better job in the future.
参考答案三
不认同这种做法
思路解析
从 “经济需求” 和 “综合能力培养” 两个方面阐述不支持限制兼职时长的原因。
理由一
一些学生依赖兼职工作来赚取生活费或学费，限制时长可能会给他们带来经济困难。
理由二
兼职工作能培养学生的多种能力，如沟通能力和时间管理能力，对学生未来发展很重要，限制时长可能影响这些能力的培养。
As for me, I don't think it’s necessary to limit the number of hours students can work at part-time jobs.
To begin with, some students rely on part-time jobs to cover their living expenses or tuition fees. Limiting the working hours may put them in financial hardship. For example, a student from a low-income family may need to work long hours to afford textbooks and daily necessities. Cutting back on their work hours could mean that they struggle to make ends meet.
In addition, part-time jobs can help students develop comprehensive abilities because they can improve their communication skills, problem-solving abilities, and time management skills. These skills are not easily learned in the classroom, but they are valuable for students’ future careers.
