學生應該做兼職工作嗎？
Although still much lower than in foreign countries, the percentage of university students taking part-time jobs in China is on the increase. Some people criticize these students on the ground that part-time jobs distract轉移 students' attention and expose students too early to the issue of money. However, I firmly believe that working during university education can be very beneficial to students.
在中國大學生做兼職工作的比例在上升，雖然仍比國外低得多。一些人當場批評這些學生，指出兼職工作轉移了學生的注意力，讓學生接觸到錢的問題還爲時過早。但是，我堅信，在大學期間工作對學生是非常有利的。
First of all, taking part-time jobs can help reduce the financial burden of the students' families. Generally speaking, the income of most parents is not very high. As many universities are increasing their tuition, the education of their children is becoming an increasingly heavy burden for many parents. Some parents in the cities find it hard to pay this cost, not to mention those parents in the countryside. But if students can take some part-time jobs, their income can cover part of the expenditure, thus lowering the burden of their parents. One of my classmates pays for daily expenses completely from his own bearings, and both his parents and he are very proud of it.
首先，兼職工作可以幫助減輕學生家庭的經濟負擔。一般來說，大多數父母收入不是很高。許多大學也在提高學費，對於許多家長來說孩子教育問題的負擔變得越來越沉重。一些城市裏的家長髮現很難支付此費用，更不用說那些在農村的父母了。但是如果學生可以做一些兼職工作，他們的收入可以支付部分的開支，從而減少父母的負擔。我的一個同學的生活費用完全由他自己承擔，他和他的父母感到非常的驕傲。
Furthermore, taking part-time jobs can teach students much about hardship. Chinese students are mostly the only child at home, and their requests are usually met at any cost. This advantage actually deprives these children of the opportunity to experience hardship, which can teach them a lot about the society. By taking some part-time jobs, students can not only learn that it is hard to earn even a little money, but also learn to cultivate a correct viewpoint about life.
此外，兼職工作可以教導學生什麼是艱苦。中國大多數學生都是獨生子女，所以他們的要求無論如何都會得到滿足。這一優勢實際上剝奪了這些孩子體驗艱苦的機會，這些艱苦可以教他們很多關於社會的知識。通過做一些兼職工作，學生不僅可以學到賺一點錢都是很難的，也要學會培養正確的人生觀。
Most importantly, doing part-time jobs can sharpen students' awareness of the society. If students spend all their time on study, they will not have sufficient understanding of the society, and this insufficient knowledge may be dangerous when these students leave university for the society. But through part-time work, students will not only get a good understanding of the society and prepare themselves psychologically for the future career and life, but gain much experience in dealing with realities and people of different kinds.
最重要的是，做兼職工作可以提高學生的社會意識。如果學生把所有的時間都花在學習上，他們就不會足夠的瞭解社會，而當這些學生離開大學踏入社會時那些不充足的知識可能是危險的。但通過兼職工作，學生不僅會很好的瞭解這個社會社會而且在心理上可以爲未來的職業和生活作好準備，還可以在處理現實和不同的人的事情上得到經驗。
It is true that taking part-time jobs will take away some time that can be spent on study and that it is not good for students to focus their mind on money. But it is equally true that taking part-time jobs can bring students the benefits of less financial burden, more experience of hardship as well as more awareness of the society. They definitely surpass the harms of the work. What we should do is to teach students to arrange their time well and not to focus too much on money, and then encourage them to take part-time jobs.
這是真的，兼職工作會佔據一些可以花在學習上時間而且學生把焦點放在金錢上是不好的。但同樣這也是真的，兼職工作可以讓學生減少財政負擔，獲得更多的艱苦經歷以及更多的社會意識。他們絕對優於工作帶來的危害。我們應該做的是教導學生合理安排時間，不要過於注重金錢，之後鼓勵學生參加兼職工作。
