Nowadays there are more and more provided tutors among college students. Some students even take a few tutor jobs at the same time. People have different opinions about this phenomenon.
Some people believe college students can benefit a lot from being tutors. On the one hand they can earn some money and lessen the burden on their family. On the other hand they can have chances to apply their knowledge to the solution to the practical problems.
However still others object to college students being a tutor. They think that a student should focus on his study instead of doing a part-time job. If they spend too much time on teaching, they will not have enough time to study, and naturally their academic performance will be affected.
In the two arguments, I’m in favor of the former one. In my opinion, to be a tutor is a good practical activity for us college students, from which we can gain practical experience and skills. But it is worth noting that we cannot spend too much time in being tutors. We should balance the relationship between the tutor job and study.

College Students’ Job Hunting
In recent years, college students find it increasingly difficult to get a job. It sounds strange since young college students are usually intelligent, well-educated phenomenon, aspirant and eager to bring their talent into full play. Then what underlies the strange phenomenon?
There are several reasons for this. To begin with, nowadays college students aim too high. All they want are “good” jobs which could offer good salary, comfortable working conditions, high social status among others. Consequently, most college students are unwilling to accept vacant jobs they consider not “good” enough. Another reason is that there is a big gap between the majors some students study in school and the demands of vacant jobs. So companies think some students are not fit for the jobs.
Solution to the problem requires efforts→← on both the society and the students. The companies should value the students, talent and knowledge while the latter should not merely aim at material gains. They should be down-to–earth in building up their career. Furthermore, they should face their weak points so as to improve themselves and be more competent.

Nowadays,the overwhelming influence of advertisements on media has made too many controversial social issues.Some people argue that advertisements make the audience have the similar look by driving them to buy products of the same brand.Personally,I fundamentally agree with this assertion,and my reasons will be explored as below.
Admittedly,the literal intention of advertisements is to sharpen the concept of individualism.For the purpose of distinguishing brand names,slogans and testimonials in advertisement are always full of very personalized words,including "new","innovation","uniqueness","revolution","the best","the only","the first".It is clear that core values of these words bring people a motivation to change,and a desire to try something ,the gap between people can be broadened,because any individual is stimulated by advertisements to express their personalities by buy different items,instead of following common tastes.
However,when considering practical effects of advertisements on the society,I strongly believe they play a role of depersonalizing the audience,and the first reason is that commercials are the key tool for big companies to monopolize the hand,many big companies invest billions of dollars annually in making fascinating and prepossessing advertisements to attract the public,which consistently maintains the loyalty of patrons,and cultivate good impressions of potential customers on their the other hand,small companies have too limited financial ability to afford these costly publicity campaigns,so that their names and influences continue to fade and lose consumer groups.That is to say,advertisements,an expensive privilege only for rich and big companies,help these companies exclusively occupy the market,as well as reducing the diversity of brands.In this situation,people definitely look the same,because they have no other options but buy the same-brand food,clothes and devices produced by a dominating company.
Another reason supporting this assertion lies on the fact that exposure to advertisements standardizes thoughts and tastes among audiences,especially in terms of their appearance.A typical example comes from fashion,cosmetic and shampoo commercials which highlight the close-up of images of certain model or celebrity.This is a strong brainwash by implying that images of these actors are common standards of human beauty,and then triggering massive public imitation shows round by round.In too many cases,large groups of hypnotized people,regardless of ages,careers and races,blindly follow and chase so-called iconic figures in an advertisement,mainly through buying and using the same lipstick and perfume,wearing same clothes,watch,ornaments and bag,even copying the same hair style.
In conclusion,I believe the main social influence of advertisements is to make people have the similar images apparently.Although slogans of advertisements tend to individualize the audience,the truth is that advertisements not only let big companies rule the market solely,but also manipulate the public’s minds to buy the same things.
