　　3. 你的观点是......

　　Reports on the increasing number of colleges and universities spending millions of RMB to build tremendous gates are on the rise. This has attracted the public attention.

　　Different people hold different opinions towards building showy gates. Some people think that we should not make a fuss over it since grand gates can give schools good images so to attract more brilliant students. However, others are firmly against it saying that money should be used to hire better professors and intellectuals to better manage teaching or to help students from poverty-stricken areas.

　　In my opinion, universities should be careful with limited funds. On the one hand, the prestige of a university lies not in the showing gate but in the quality of teaching. On the other hand, a university is a place where students acquire knowledge. The flashing gate will influence the academic atmosphere.
