正确答案
解析
As shown in the picture, a student sits in front of a computer wondering what kind of course he should choose. One kind of course can be passed easily with high score and only contains small amount of homework, while the other kind of course is difficult but with brand new knowledge and an emphasis on creativity. However, I believe this picture is trying to point out a dilemma that most of the college students are facing right now－whether to chase high grades or to gain more knowledge and practicing opportunity.
It’s worth considering because the current situation forces us to chase a straight-A transcript to gain scholarship or even job opportunity. But we can’t neglect the fact that good grades doesn’t mean one has the matching abilities to support him to develop further. In fact, creativity is what modern society really needs nowadays, as we can learn from how new technology changes our life. Therefore, here we call for all the schools and companies to pay more attention to the standard of how to evaluate students, and taking measures to train more creative talents.
图中，一个人坐在电脑前，考虑是选择“给分高、易通过、作业少”的课程，还是选择“知识新、有创新、有难度”的课程。故本文可以围绕当今大学生处在两难抉择的原因，例如奖学金和就业都要求学生有漂亮的成绩单，和实际社会需要的是有创新能力的人才开展，说明优秀的成绩并不能说明这个人有能力，更要鼓励社会改正对学生的评价标准，培养更多的创新型人才。
