重庆市部分区县2019届高三上学期英语第一次诊断考试试卷
Is college really worth the cost? Let's explore some of the pros and cons. It takes money to make money.
Do college graduates make a higher salary? In general, yes. Those with a bachelor's degree make nearly twice the income of someone with only a high school diploma.
Among the majors that make the most money out of college are engineering, math and computer science. Not surprisingly, some of the lowest include art, religious studies, and early childhood and elementary education.
The average cost of a year of tuition (学费) in the United States is more than $30,000.That's just one year. Because of that, many college graduates come out with debt that annoys them for years after they graduate.
For many tradesmen, a special skill in their specific field is all that's needed to make not only a fairly good living, but a comfortable one. The average electrician, for example, makes $58,933, whereas the average preschool teacher, after college, makes around $30,000.
College grads have higher job satisfaction.
Another plus for going to college? In general, college graduates are more satisfied with their jobs — 57 percent of college graduates are satisfied in their careers as compared to 37 percent of people with just a high school diploma. What's more, college graduates are less affected by job cuts when economy is weak.
They also have a better social network.
College also provides numbers of social benefits, providing social networks that stay with people throughout their lives. The college years are formative years in our lives.
A. But college tuition is pricy.

D. They really have a better sense of achievement in their career.
E. They are more marketable and can generally find another job more easily.
