　　Students’ Part-time Jobs

　　There are many advantages for a student to have a part time job.For instance,it helps him to realize that no success comes from nothing.It enables him to be independent and builds up his self-confidence. Therefore, part-time jobs cans get the students out of the ivory² tower and give them the opportunity to know more of himself and of his personal value in society.

　　As everything has two sides,the disadvantages can’t be ignored. First,part-time jobs sborten students’ study time.Second, some even become so preoccupied³ with making money that they can’t focus their attention on studying.In the end,the students may fal1 behind or fail in their studies.

　　Personally,I believe students can choose to take up a job according to their own situation.The most important thing is for him to keep a good balance,put his study on top of the list and assign an adequate amount of time to it.(158 words)

　　学生的兼职工作

　　对于学生而言，兼职工作有很多好处。例如，它能够使学生认识到，没有付出就没有收获。这使他能够独立，树立自信心。因此，兼职工作能够让学生们走出象牙塔，使他们有机会更多地了解自己及个人在社会中的价值。

　　由于事物都具有两面性，兼职工作的缺点亦不容忽视。首先，兼职工作缩短了学生的学习时间。其次，一些学生全身心投人到赚钱当中，这样便无法将注意力集中在学习上。最后，学生可能会落后他人，甚至荒废学业。

　　就个人而言，我相信学生可按自身条件决定是否选择兼职。最重要的一点是，保持一种良好的平衡状态，将学业放在首位，安排足够的时间用于学习。
