Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Universities should
give the same amount of money to their students' sports activities as they give
to their university libraries. Use specific reasons and examples to support your
opinion.
I disagree strongly with the idea that the same amount of money should go
to university sports activities as to university libraries. Although playing
sports is a wonderful way to learn about teamwork, strategy and reaching your
goals, it should not be the principal focus of a university education.
Students need the most up-to-date library facilities available to get the best
education. Many of those facilities are very expensive to buy and maintain.
These include computerized programs and access to internet research databases
that students can use to find information all around the world. If a university
is only offering its students resources of a decade ago, it’s depriving those
students of a tremendous amount of information.
Even the book and magazine
budget of universities has gone up tremendously in last decade. More is being
published on every subject, and every university wants to have this information
available to its students.
It also costs money for universities to keep
their libraries open. Students need to have access to all the libraries'
research tools as much of time as possible. Because students are young and can
stay up all night studying, many universities are starting to leave their
libraries open all night during exam periods. This costs money, because the
staff has to be paid extra to be there. It also costs money to run the building
(electricity, heat) during that time.
Students at universities are only
going to benefit from their education if they can get to all the tools they need
to learn. Sports are secondary to the resources that students need from
university libraries. For this reason, libraries should always be better funded
than sport activities.
是关于体育运动和学术一样重要吗？ 望采纳 谢谢啦
