本题改编自老GRE的ISSUE94"Universities should require every student to take a variety of courses outside the student's field of study because acquiring knowledge of various academic disciplines is the best way to become truly educated"。题目讨论大学生学习范围的问题，题目认为应当要求学生学习本专业以外的其他课程，其原因是这样才是最好的教育形式。在分析的过程中，可以从本专业学科和其他学科知识对学生的生活学习和工作的正负面影响、不同知识之间的相互作用、教育培养学生的目标和需求、不同领域不同环境下分情况讨论等方面展开思考。

The speaker claims that the best way to ensure that students
become truly educated is requiring university students to take a variety
of course outside their major fields of study. I concede that the study
of courses outside a student's own field can benefit the study of their
majors. However, in my view, the speaker's claim is specious.
It is undeniable that various disciplines are so related that mastery of any specific area requires some knowledge about other areas. For example, a physical-science student can fully understand quantum field theory only by having a good command of some mathematical knowledge such as "functional analysis" and "differential geometry". A biologist cannot excel without understanding some knowledge of chemistry and computer programming. Also, even computer science is intrinsically tied to other areas, even some non-technical ones such as business, communication and media. So, a broad educational experience is conducive to study for one's major field.
However, the speaker's assertion that the best way to be truly educated is acquiring knowledge of various disciplines rests on an unsubstantiated assumption that knowledge stock of various disciplines is the standard for determining whether one is truly educated or not. From a functional sense, knowledge stock of various disciplines only involves the process for obtaining the knowledge. With today's era of highly developed computer technology, any individual's knowledge stock is so tiny when compared to the memory of a personal computer. Thus, the process for outputting knowledge, namely re-creation of the knowledge is more valuable than acquiring knowledge of various disciplines.
There are only two indispensable criterions for judging whether individual are truly educated. The first criterion is whether he has a mastery of scientific way of thinking. Only grasping it, a person can independently have a critical thinking . The second one is whether individual can acquire his conviction and realize the value of life through independent critical thinking. And a person cannot find the meaning of his life without gaining his belief and the value of life. Consequently, the ultimate purpose of education is to free the mind and the spirit. And acquiring knowledge of various disciplines is merely a method, rather than the purpose of education.
In sum, although requiring university students to take a variey of courses outside their major fields of study is helpful for students to gain knowledge, the meaning of "truly educated" amounts too far more than obtaining knowledge from various disciplines. The true education requires students to liberate their minds and the spirit.
