　　1.目前，在社会上有这样的一种说法，文凭越高越吃香;

　　2.而有些人则认为文凭不等于知识;

　　3.你的观点。

　　参考范文：

　　With the development of the society, more and more people enroll in the postgraduate examination for getting a higher diploma. Most companies are inclined to hire the people with high diploma.

　　随着社会的发展，越来越多的人为获得更高的学历而参加研究生考试。大部分公司都倾向于雇佣高学历的人才。

　　However, is it really true that high diploma equals to high ability or profound knowledge? Some people do not agree on this kind of idea. They claim that ability or knowledge means more than diploma. Take Bill Gates, the head of the microsoft, for example, he does not have an MBA degree which is believed to play a vital role in the success in commercial life. Furthermore, Sam Walton of Wal-Mart Stores Inc. does not have an MBA degree, but he is the most successful man in the business community.

　　然而，高学历真的能等同于能力强或知识渊博吗?有些人并不认同这种观点。他们宣称，能力或知识比学历更重要。以微软的总裁比尔·盖茨为例，他没有获得人们普遍认为对商业生涯的成功起着至关重要作用的工商管理硕士学位。另外，沃尔玛百货有限公司的山姆·沃尔顿也没有工商管理硕士学位，但他是商界最成功的人士。

　　In my opinion, diploma is not equal to knowledge. A diploma is a piece of paper which establishes your education degree. But your ability and the real knowledge come from your hard work and endowment. If you got a diploma by dishonest behavior, no matter how high a diploma it is, it is just a piece of paper, and you are as blank as that paper.

　　依我看来，学历不等于知识。学历只是一张能代表你教育程度的纸。而你的能力和真正的知识来自于你的努力工作和天赋。如果你通过不诚实的手段获取一个学历，无论那个学历有多高，它仅仅是一张纸而己，而你会像那张纸一样空白。
