Perhaps because going to college is so much a part of the American dream, many people go for no
26
reason. Some go because their parents expect it, others because ifs what their friends are doing.
Then, there’s the belief that a college degree will
27
ensure a good job and high pay. Some students
28
through four years, attending classes, or skipping (逃课) them as the case may be, reading only what can’t be avoided, looking for less
29
courses, and never being touched or changed in any important way. For a few of these people, college provides no
30
, yet because of parental or peer pressure, they cannot voluntarily leave. They stop trying in the hope that their teachers will make the decision for them by
31
them. To put it bluntly(直截了当地), unless you’re willing to make your college years count, you might be
32
doing something else. Not everyone should attend college, nor should everyone who does attend begin right after high school. Many college students

taking a year or so off. A year out in the world helps some people to
34
their priorities and goals. If you’re really going to get something out of going to college, you have to make it mean something, and to do that you must have some idea why you’re there, what you hope to get out of it, and
35
even what you hope to become.
