ANSWER TO THE FIRST QUESTION
I always tell my best friends my principles and I hope that they can respect and take notice on these. As far as I know, everyone has his principles and does not want another person break them. Nowadays, college students skip class from time to time. They also take this thing as a common condition and laugh at someone who do not do that before. In my point of view, I think it a bad behavior to skip class. When I listen to the speech which 龍應台 addressed, she talked about three necessary elements which college students need to have. One of the three elements is knowledge. Through this, I can find that if I always skip classes, how can I get the knowledge, and how the knowledge come from? So, if somebody laugh at me about I never skip class, I will response to them “A successful person will never skip class.”
The other three significant elements are “Critical thinking, action and personality.”All of these are pretty important to us to consider a new direction for rest of our college lives. More reap, more gain. Maybe next time when someone else ask me to skip the class, I will ask them to go to the youtube and read the speech .
