   四级作文作为拉分的重点部分,应引起同学们足够的重视,小编找了许多作文范文来给同学们练习和提升语感。

  Universities provide students with an environment in which to learn, mature and began to realize their potential. While some students maintain a rigid1, singular focus on their studies —— the next exam, essay or assignment —— others engage in a variety of extracurricular activities out side the classroom. Participation2 in such activities can greatly benefit students in their academic studies, chosen careers, and future life.
  The most immediate3 benefit of extracurricular activities is to the participants’ studies. Spending an appropriate amount of time participating in sports, clubs or volunteer work can actually be an excellent way for students to relieve everyday stress. Students who are less stressed out will naturally be happier and healthier. In turn, they will be able to work more efficiently4 and effectively in their studies and attain5 better results. In addition, participation in extracurricular activities will also assist university students in their careers after graduation. Increasingly, employers seeking job applicants6 are not interested solely7 in students with a high GPA. Many companies also consider involvement in other activities when assessing which applicants are most qualified8 for the position because extracurricular activities also enable students to improve their communication, leadership and teamwork skills, which are important skills that they will need to succeed in their careers. Last but not least, students who take part in activities after school will learn how to live a more balanced and fulfilling life. As the saying goes, “All work and no play makes Jack9 a dull boy.” In other words, those who do noting else but work or study all day will become bored, uninspired, and apathetic10 towards life. Extracurricular activities can give students a greater appreciation11 for sports, hobbies and community service, and help them become healthier and more well-rounded individuals.
  While academics are obviously important, it is neither necessary or advisable for students to spend on hundred percent of their time on their books. University students who devote some of their time and energy to extracurricular activities will be doing a service to their studies, their careers, and even their future life.
