Nowadays‚ people usually study higher after graduating from high school instead of getting a job. Different students go to college for different purposes. I am inclined to believe that the most popular reasons that people attend college are knowledge requiring‚ experience gaining and career building. First of all‚ it can’t be denied that colleges give us higher education. While students are taught the basis of things at secondary schools‚ they can examine deeper in the areas that they are interested

In American society there are many things that we imagine and think are true as Americans‚ such as Bigfoot‚ the Loch Ness monster and other extraordinary things that it takes a lot of faith to believe in.

The 10‚000-hour rule‚ popularized by Malcolm Gladwell‚ is considered a key to success. Though hard work is necessary for mastering something‚ do we really need to spend 10‚000 hours or is there more to this than Gladwell presented in his book Outliers? With further research it was found that 10‚000 hours is not the end all be all for mastery. In fact‚ Gladwell was wrong because he oversimplified what is necessary for mastery and the amount of work people need to put in by a long shot. In chapter

If you are born into a rich and powerful family it is possible that you are handed
