[00:03.97]Topic 14 Should College Students Own Private Cars? [00:08.77]Private cars, [00:09.83]often regarded as luxury goods, [00:12.07]are reported to have been bought [00:13.44]by many college students [00:15.09]or by their parents as birthday gifts in the recent. [00:18.45]This phenomenon can also find its expression [00:21.58]in the driver’s license rush for many college students. [00:24.70]During summer or winter vacation, [00:26.88]sometimes even on weekends, [00:29.37]many college students would attend driving courses. [00:31.92]Though learning to drive can give college graduates [00:34.78]a cutting edge in job market, [00:36.34]I do not think it is necessary for college students [00:39.32]to own private cars in this particular episode of lives. [00:43.87]Firstly, according to some news coverage, [00:46.85]the majority of private cars [00:48.66]owned by college students are purchased [00:50.90]by their parents instead of by themselves. [00:54.01]Of course, [00:54.82]there are some wealthy families [00:56.39]that can easily afford private cars, [00:59.14]but it does nothing to change the fact [01:01.07]that college students rely on their parents [01:03.34]for tuition fees and living expenditure. [01:06.26]In terms of personal growth, [01:08.26]owning private cars bought by parents [01:10.87]do not help college students cherish [01:13.36]the value of self-reliance. [01:15.55]Some educationalists worry that in the long run [01:18.23]those students tend to become lazy, [01:20.03]which is harmful to college students’ improvement. [01:23.97]Secondly, [01:24.96]private cars are not basic necessities [01:27.26]without which college students can not carry [01:29.97]through their pursuit of higher degrees. [01:32.52]Both professors and college students [01:34.40]can figure out the underlying reason for [01:37.08]some students owning private cars is to show off. [01:41.28]As I have mentioned above, [01:42.77]the majority of college students still [01:44.76]depend on their parents for tuition fees [01:47.38]and living expenditure, [01:48.75]but owning private cars contribute nothing [01:51.50]to showing off their own personal highlight. [01:54.36]In actuality, we do admire that [01:56.23]those private car owners have wealthy parents, [01:59.17]but at the bottom of our heart [02:00.99]we severely detest those classmates. [02:03.79]We can easily find out that showing off [02:05.97]indicates the very insecurity [02:07.58]and lack of confidence in studies [02:10.59]and personal cultivation. [02:12.20]Furthermore, as some college students [02:14.88]are still yet to be mature, they can easily become jealous. [02:18.50]For those immature students, [02:20.26]they are more likely to [02:21.65]form the belief that the society is unfair. [02:24.94]In conclusion, [02:26.14]as college students can not provide for themselves, [02:28.81]how can they dare to [02:30.34]ask their parents to buy cars for them? [02:32.89]Owning private cars only [02:33.95]indicates inner insecurity and lack of confidence [02:37.68]for those students, and arouses jealousy among peers. [02:41.34]Therefore, [02:42.44]I think it is unwise to own private cars for college students.
