How to learn something new?
What’s the best way to obtain knowledge? People may have different answers. Some people believe that reading is the most useful way to learn, while others suggest that we can learn new things by listening to others. As for me, we can really understand knowledge only through practicing.
Surely, I could not deny that reading is a good way to learn. Delving into books people can get touch with a wide range of knowledge, and even become experts! By reading books people could boost their confidence and improve their logical thinking ability, for instance, the intro to philosophy is a useful book that make you meditate on your life. But, books still have a lot of drawbacks, many mistakes or biases can not be eliminated because all the knowledge presented in the books are just the opinions of the writer, the person who acquired these knowledge through practicing or his/her own deducing.
Along the same lines of the reading, listening to others can sometimes misguides us. People have different personalities and characteristics, and different ways to understand or to learn new things. All these differences could result in different feelings and comprehension, so it is not wise to copy other people’s viewpoints without any carefulness. My friend Mike is a good case in point. Mike is not good at math, but when he heard that the next math quiz is so easy, he just prepared it in a very limited time, so you can guess the result, he got a poor grade.
So how about learning through real experiences? Needless to say, the best way to understand knowledge and to learn how to use them is to do things yourself! Let’s say, for example, doing experiments. When I first read a chemical textbook that describes how oxygen could be generated by putting two electronic probe into the water, I was confused by these words. However, the experiment really stir up my curiosity, after I finished the experiment, I have a further understanding of these principles, and the knowledge also make me a great impression.
To sum it up, the best way to learn is to do things yourself. As a result of real experiences, you will have a throughly comprehension of knowledge and more advanced skills of using knowledge.

Is it better for children to choose jobs that are similar to their parents' jobs?
Some people think that it is better for children to choose jobs that are similar to their parents' jobs than to choose jobs that are very different from their parents' job. Generally speaking, I disagree with this statement.
First of all, we should consider our own interests. People may have different talent and interests, and therefore spend more time on what they like and less time on what they dislike. For example, I have a classmate named Jane, she is good at math but doesn't like history. Because she is obsessed with solving math difficulties and spend a lot of time on math, every semester she gets good marks on her math exams but poor grades on her history exams. She wants to become a math scientist and finally she achieved her goal. This experience suggested that when we choose a job, we should consider where our real interest is, and plan our own life. Taking the jobs our parents do may not always be a good result.
In addition to the talent, what I should say is that some jobs are somewhat out dated in today's society. We should also take into account the job opportunities when we choose a job. Let's say, the cart driver. When in old times, before the railway transportation networks become popular and the car has been invented, the cart is the main tool for a long distance travel. So the cart driver may have a large amount of demand in that time period. But now, thanks to the invention of the new transportations, people are more easier to travel a long distance in a short time. The new technology not only make our life more convenient and comfortable, but also abandon many traditional jobs. Some jobs that our parents do may not be popular today, children study in these field may face challenge to find a job.
To sum it up, we should consider many factors when we choose a job, it is unfair to say that children should do the work their parents do.

Does the ability to relate well to people is more important than studying hard in school
Does the ability to relate well to people is more important than studying hard in school? People may have their own answers. As for me, knowing how to get on well with others is a dispensable ability in today's society, though I could not deny that study hard in school is also very important.
First of all, people need to study hard in school. Many jobs today require a strong background of specific knowledge, that people with a poor education or weak self study ability can sometimes feel hard to solve problems themselves. For instance, the jobs offered in scientific institutions will require a high degree of diploma, such as master or Ph.D, because people have more profound knowledge will more likely to work out these difficult problems, and thus more likely to achieve great success in their research field, that's why students who want to delve into science and engineering must study hard in school.
However, I should say that people skills is also needed for many careers. As win-win relationship is highly recommended in today's society, collaboration seems more important than competition. People who have good people skills could make friends with others easily, and they will leave others a good impression just when they first meet, that will bring them more chance in their career development. let's say, a department director, if he knows how to communicate with staffs in a efficient way, or he can motivate others when the team faced some frustrates, the company will have a better atmosphere, and thus the company will make more profit. The same is true for the job marketing, if you know how to attract your customers, you will sell more products.
What's more, people skills is also very important for young teenagers. According to the survey conducted by some experts, students who have good people skills will achieve higher average score in their subjects. That's because students who have better social skills will be more welcome than students who have less words, and thus they will have a benign relationship with their teachers and classmates, which could help improve their academic performance.
In sum, both good people skills and study ability are important for our future development, only balance these two things in a sensible way can we have a successful future.
