1. 上大学的费用（tuition and fees）可以通过多种途径解决2. 哪种途径适合于我（说明理由）

 

Nowadays, tuition and fees for college are much higher than ever before. How to finance your college education has become a matter of concern for many. You can deal with in many ways. You can get all of the money from your parents. You can apply for a loan especially set up for college students. You can also acquire the money completely by yourself, doing a full-time job in summer or winter holiday. In addition, you can ask your parents for most of it and earn the rest in your spare time in college, by doing a part-time job.

注：    2.太多you can重复使用，缺乏变化

In my opinion, I prefer the last way. Having acquired most of the tuition and fees from my parents, I needn't worry too much about the money and can concentrate on my study; on the other hand, a part-time job in my spare time makes my campus-life colorful. I can make a lot of friends, improve my abilities and learn lots of knowledge. So, I choose this way to cover my tuition and fees.

   缺点：缺少连贯性

一致性/发展性/连贯性

How I Finance My College Education?

 

Previously in China, a university education was funded by the government. This situation is changing and students must now finance their own education. As a result, students are now faced with the question "how to pay for my college education"?

注：This 指代前文

There are several possible ways to raise the money to pay for fees and tuitions. Parents are a source for college funding, as is the case with most students. Scholarships are also available for students with outstanding academic performance. Because scholarships are competitive, they are not available to every one. Students can also take out a loan from the bank. Banks can provide loans to students without collateral for those who need them. And, many students can take on part-time jobs to help finance their education. In cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, there are many part-time job opportunities for students both on and off campus.

注：1.source 来源，TV program is main source of my pleasure. 电视是我欢乐的主要来源

        2.available重要词汇，Are you still available? 你还单身吗？

        3.take part-time job打工，还可以用do out job/hold temporary job

        4.on and off 校园内外

Personally, I believe a scholarship is the best way to fund an education as it not only pays for fees and tuition, but also encourages studying hard.
