There has been a heated debate about the effect of pressure from academic studies on us students in college. Some of my fellow students argue that it is not good for us to study under great pressure. Personally I do not agree to this view. My argument is based on the following two aspects. First, no pressure means no progress. With the development of our society, competition among people grows more and more fierce. College students are no exception. They must learn how to deal with future challenges foreseeable. Under proper pressure, each student has to work hard to lay a solid foundation in his or her specialty.
有一個激烈的辯論，壓力的影響，從學術研究對美國大學生的影響。我的`一些同學認爲，在巨大的壓力下學習是不好的。就我個人而言，我不同意這一觀點。我的論點是基於以下幾個方面。第一，沒有壓力就意味着沒有進步。隨着社會的發展，人們之間的競爭越來越激烈。大學生也不例外。他們必須學會如何處理未來的挑戰，可以預見。在適當的壓力下，每個學生都必須努力工作，爲自己的專業打下堅實的基礎。
Second, no pressure means no self-discipline. In our daily college life, quite a few students idle away their spare time—even some of their academic time. With more academic pressure upon the students, they will cherish their time and have self-restrictions with their study and even self-behavior. In summary, I believe more pressure from academic studies does a great deal of good to us college students. If we put pressure into perspective, we will surely enjoy our campus life more and benefit more from it accordingly.
二、沒有壓力就意味着沒有自律。在我們日常的大學生活中，相當一部分學生空閒的時間甚至是他們的業餘時間。隨着學業壓力越來越大，學生們也會珍惜自己的時間，並對自己的學習和自我的行爲有着自己的限制。總之，我相信學術研究的壓力對我們大學生來說是一筆不錯的交易。如果我們把壓力轉化爲視角，我們一定會更喜歡我們的校園生活，並從中受益更多。
