Should students take part-time jobs?
学生应该做兼职工作吗？
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转移 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.
在中国大学生做兼职工作的比例在上升，虽然仍比国外低得多。一些人当场批评这些学生，指出兼职工作转移了学生的注意力，让学生接触到钱的问题还为时过早。但是，我坚信，在大学期间工作对学生是非常有利的。
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，兼职工作可以帮助减轻学生家庭的经济负担。一般来说，大多数父母收入不是很高。许多大学也在提高学费，对于许多家长来说孩子教育问题的负担变得越来越沉重。一些城市里的家长发现很难支付此费用，更不用说那些在农村的父母了。但是如果学生可以做一些兼职工作，他们的收入可以支付部分的开支，从而减少父母的负担。我的一个同学的生活费用完全由他自己承担，他和他的父母感到非常的骄傲。
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，兼职工作可以教导学生什么是艰苦。中国大多数学生都是独生子女，所以他们的要求无论如何都会得到满足。这一优势实际上剥夺了这些孩子体验艰苦的机会，这些艰苦可以教他们很多关于社会的知识。通过做一些兼职工作，学生不仅可以学到赚一点钱都是很难的，也要学会培养正确的人生观。
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，做兼职工作可以提高学生的社会意识。如果学生把所有的时间都花在学习上，他们就不会足够的了解社会，而当这些学生离开大学踏入社会时那些不充足的知识可能是危险的。但通过兼职工作，学生不仅会很好的了解这个社会社会而且在心理上可以为未来的职业和生活作好准备，还可以在处理现实和不同的人的事情上得到经验。
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.
这是真的，兼职工作会占据一些可以花在学习上时间而且学生把焦点放在金钱上是不好的。但同样这也是真的，兼职工作可以让学生减少财政负担，获得更多的艰苦经历以及更多的社会意识。他们绝对优于工作带来的危害。我们应该做的是教导学生合理安排时间，不要过于注重金钱，之后鼓励学生参加兼职工作。
