一起閑話英語(yǔ)：無償教育-Free Education
speaker Definitely. Definitely, I think it should be free. I think for one, depending on where you live, we all pay enough taxes that I think this is a privilege that would be enjoyed and I also think if it were to be free, students would really think hard about what they want to do, and let's say, they couldn't figure it out at an early age, they could join at any point in time and it wouldn't be a stress and everyone would have that freedom to be whatever they want, so yeah.
Prae / Thailand
speaker I don't think college education should be free because students might not put as much effort that they are doing now because they know it's free and they can do it anytime they want.
Maiko / Japan
speaker I think college education should be free if people want to study, they should be given the opportunity to learn regardless of how much money they have, so I think it would be a good system if students can apply and register without paying the fees.
Paul / England
speaker I think people should have to pay for their education because otherwise there's a lot of people who'll just go to school and then they'll go to university and just study, and I think it takes away the importance of a university education, so if people have to pay more then I think it makes them more motivated, and yeah, it makes qualifications, a degree, more important.
Eoin / England
speaker Yes, I definitely think college or university should be free. When I went to university in the U.K., the government paid for all of the fees, for any academic course that people wanted to study at that time.
Lindsay / United States
speaker I think college should be free for those that deserve it. In other words, based on merit, if a child has worked really hard and shown that they have high goals and that they want to do well and use college to succeed, then I think that college should be free, but I don't think it should be free for those who haven't shown in high school that they care about school or that they care about learning.
