　　2016年12月大学英语四级考试如期举行，今年英语四级考试有一则作文题目是让考生在读研和工作之间进行选择，文都教育提供参考范文一篇如下：

　　【题目】

　　Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay. Suppose you have two options upon graduation: one is to take a job in a company and the other to go to a graduate school. You are to make a choice between the two. Write an essay to explain the reasons for your choice. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

　　【参考范文】

　　For undergraduates college students, deciding what to do upon graduation can be a tough decision to say the least. From my point of view, I prefer to pursuing postgraduate students. My choice can be attributed to the following two driving forces.

　　For one thing, I want to continue my studies for their own sake because I love what I am doing. In fact, having a passion for my subject is possibly the best reason to go into postgraduate education. For another thing, entering into a postgraduate school, I can improve my job prospects. Specializing at postgraduate level can make you a stronger job applicant.

　　Actually, when in comes time for university graduates to decide their next step in life, there is no on right or wrong choice for everyone. Rather, each students must reach his or her own conclusion.

　　【参考译文】

　　对于本科生来说，决定毕业工作之后做什么毫不夸张的说是一个艰难的决定。从我个人而言，我更喜欢读研。以下两点原因可以解释我的选择。

　　一方面， 我是为了想学习而打算继续学业因为我热爱正在做的事情。事实上，热爱学科可能是读研最好的理由。另一方面，通过读研，我们可以提高就业前景。研究生层次的专业学习可以增强你的技能，使你成为强有力的求职者。

　　事实上，大学毕业之际，每个人在决定人生中的下一步时无所谓对和错。更恰当的说，每个学生都必须做出自己的选择。

　　【范文解析】

　　一、写作思路：这次的四级作文再次考了和大学生生活极为紧密的话题大学毕业后的选择：工作还是读研，这是每个大学毕业生都会面临的选择题。构思本题可以从以下思路入手，首先开篇明确自己的选择;中间段落具体阐述自己做出这样选择的原因，例如参考范文做出的选择是读研，中间短路具体阐释之所以做出读研选择的原因是由于兴趣和未来的工作前景。结尾段说明无论哪一种选择本身并无对错之分。

　　1. upon graduation 在毕业之时，upon后面加有动态含义的名词，表示在……的时候;类似用法还有on，例如on my arrival 当我到达的时候

　　2. a tough decision 艰难的决定

　　3. A can be attributed to B A可以被归因于B

　　4. driving forces 动因

　　5. continue my studies for their own sake 为了学习而学习

　　6. a stronger job applicant 强有力的求职者
