1. 题目大意

过多的注意力被放在了去大学的学术学习上。我们应该鼓励更多的人去接受职业技能培训因为社会需要技能人才比如水管工和电工。在多大程度上统一或不同意？

2 .思路解析

这是一道很有现实意义的教育类大作文，国内对于这个话题议论其实非常多，要不要让更多   学生去中专和大专接受专业技能培训。雅思写作中类似的探讨还有“应该读大学还是毕业后直接工作”、“大学应该更重学术培养还是更重职业能力”等等。大家可以在准备素材时，把这一类题目放一起准备。

这道题目有一个背景事实，诸如电工、水管工等等这些职业技能，在大学确实是不会教授的。 这是教育分工的结果，大学更注重学术培养，大专更注重技术培养。

我们分别来梳理下，同意和反对可以有哪些观点论据。

如果我们持“同意”观点，鼓励更多学生接受职业技能培训有两个好处。

一是现代社会对于需要专业技能岗位需求越来越多，特别是熟练掌握技能的高级技工。而且在很多地区，这些岗位所能获得报酬并不低，甚至优于很多普通公司职员。所以，鼓励更多学生掌握这些技能并参与工作，既能满足社会需求，又能满足个人收入需求。

二是对于学科学习成绩不好的同学，他们在传统的升学竞争上会处于劣势。如果他们也没有艺术、体育等特长，接受职业技能培训是一条不错的出路。既能提升自己的就业竞争力，也能避免在他们不擅长的内容中竞争。

如果我们持“反对”观点，鼓励这件事会带来两个坏处。

一是过多鼓励学生接受职业技能培训成为技术人员，势必会导致这些岗位的竞争压力增加。而且很多岗位在将来可能会由机器人来代替，这些人就可能会失业的风险，而且他们在其他岗位上又缺乏竞争力，导致他们会面临生存的压力。

二是如果让更多学生接受职业技能培训，那意味着能够进入大学后投入科研的学生人数变少，这对于整个社会的科学进步和发展其实是不利的。

这篇推文的范文是从“同意”的角度切入

4. 写作范文示例

In recent decades, it has become almost required for young people to go onto higher education at universities. Although it has long been a government objective to reach the current level of university attendance, there is a school of thought which says that the government is now educating too many young people to degree level and that those same youngsters in the job market, would be better promoted by a greater focus on vocational training.

Admittedly，some students are clearly suited to the academic route of a university degree, and if they have a particular career in mind which demands this level of qualification, then they should receive every encouragement to follow their chosen path. After all ， the university offers an academic experience ， with broad knowledge and basic skills to serve as the foundation for further learning and on-the-job training. However, some suspect that an academic education explores the theory and hypothesis but not necessarily practical, realistic or directly useful.

Therefore ， it seems to me that for some of students ， vocational training might be a better option . First of all, vocational training has a distinctly different educational focus as it is aimed at delivering practical, job specific skills, and by pursuing a technical-vocational education, different levels of courses should teach students the specialized and practical job-related knowledge and skills they need to know to perform a particular job role. Besides, learners are often more in-line with the job market needs leading to increasing employment. For example, in some Latin American countries, data show that at least in the graduate’s first years, technical graduates usually have better employment opportunities than university graduates, especially in the context of recent economic reactivation .

In conclusion, with inconclusive results over which type of education is better for lifetime success, I think much of it comes down to personal choice, career aspirations, and talent. However, we cannot ignore a fact that employers are increasingly requesting a greater element of vocational training be introduced alongside academic studies.
