大学扩招好吗？
Many colleges 【纵览全球英语资讯、洞察全球英文信息，尽在英语翻译学习网（enfanyi.com）你的全球英语指南】and universities have expanded their enrollment since 1998. The reasons for the expansion are as follows. Firstly, they want to keep up with the need of the job market to produce more qualified people to take up the jobs. Secondly, the expansion has entitled many high school graduates to the right of receiving higher education. Last but not least, it can raise the intellectual standards of our nation.
从1998年起许多高校就开始扩招了。扩招的原因如下。首先，他们想培养更多的合格人才了跟上就业市场的需求。其次，扩招解决了许多高中毕业生接受高等教育权利的问题。最后但并非最不重要的，它可以提高我们国家的智力水平。
However, studies show that the trend to expand has brought about many problems. For instance, the teaching facilities and accommodation capacities of many colleges and universities are limited and are unable to meet the demand of an ever-increasing number of the newly enrolled students. On the other hand, the average quality of the freshmen is declining. In the long run, hunting for a job will be a tough thing for the graduates and that will inevitably exert much pressure on the prospects of employment.
然而，研究表明，有扩招的趋势带来了许多问题。例如，许多学院和大学的教学设施和住宿的能力是有限的，他们无法满足不断增加的新入学学生的需求。 另一方面，对新生的总体才能要求下降了。从长远来看，对于毕业生来说，找工作将是很困难的事情，将不可避免地会对就业前景造成很大压力。
In spite of all this, I am still confident that the expansion of enrollment is of great benefit to our society and is a good thing. With the development of our national economy, the problem as mentioned above will be solved if proper measures are taken.
尽管如此，我仍然相信，扩大招生规模对我们的社会是有利的，是一件好事。随着我国经济的发展，上述问题将采取适当的解决措施。
