雅思口語備考系列范文：教育變化

　　Question:

　　What changes took place in education in your country over the past decade?

　　過去十年,你所在的國家教育發(fā)生了怎樣的變化?

　　Answer:

　　Well, everything is changing, so is education.

　　The most important change that took place over the past decade is this.

　　1. increased admission

　　It seems to me that more and more people are now able to go to college while in the past the competition was much stronger.

　　College admission is opening up, and this is a direct result of the state policy.

　　The consequence is that many students who have not reached the level of university education are also allowed to sit in the college classroom, therefore the quality of education has been declining.

　　2. master’s degree/overseas education

　　It is because this problem that an increasing number of people are pursuing more education after college graduation. These options include master’s program and possibly overseas education, just like what I’m doing right now. We’re fed up with the boring routine life in college, and we’re fighting for a better future for ourselves.

　　3. increased tuition

　　Unfortunately, not every child would have the opportunity to continue their education after college. Why? Simply because going to school is so costly.

　　The tuition has been almost tripled over the past decade and this presented serious financial pressure that some families cannot handle. So some of my classmates have to drop out just because their families ran short of money. Human tragedy! I’m lucky. My mom and dad are making enough money, so I can even go to college in Canada. But I’m not taking this for granted, I’ll be eternally grateful to them.

　　4. Private training institution

　　Wherever there’s need, there’s a solution. As more families realized the importance of making education investment in their kids, training demands has been soaring over the past 10 years. Private training institutions such as New Oriental flourished. So as long as you want you will always find a place to study and a class schedule that fits you. Opportunities for personal improvement are many.
