　　从过去的53年里随便找出一天，我都能够立刻想起那一天我在哪里，那一天发生了什么新闻，甚至那一天是星期几。从4岁起，我就能这么做了。

　　我从来没有为自己所记住的大量的事情而感到不知所措。我似乎能够应对这种状况，能够有条理地将这些信息记在脑子里。当我想起悲伤的事情时，我会像每个人一样，尽力把它放在一边，不去想它。我并不认我因为我的记忆非常清晰，这么做对我来说就很难。强大的记忆力并不能使我的情感更加敏锐和生动。我能够记得我祖父去世的那一天，以及前一天我们去医院的路上所感到的悲伤。同样，我也能记得同一天在百老汇上演的音乐剧《Hair》——这些事情都以同样的方式在我脑海里突然浮现。

　　The Change in College Students’ Thinking Patterns

　　As is illustrated by the figure in the chart, thenumber of college students doing part-time jobs has been on rise steadily from66.77% to 88.24 during the four university life. From the change in the chart,it goes without saying that more and more college students choose to engage inoutside programs recently。

　　Considering these changes, we can find severalmain reasons. Firstly, with grown-up of the students, most parents tend tosupport their children to going out to do some social practice. What is moreimportant, the fast changing society has raised higher requirements for collegegraduates. The authorities of Chinese university or college have beenencouraging their students to do part-time jobs in the hope that collegestudents would broaden their view to know more about the society and becomemore adaptable to the future work after they graduate. Therefore, more studentsgo out traveling or doing social practices during the vacations。

　　As a college student, I think the chart reflectsthe exciting progress on the college students’ thinking patterns from freshman tosenior. We have become much mature to realize how to spend our spare time meaningfullyand practically. From the changes in the charts, it is easy for us to predictthat more and more college students will walk out their home and throwthemselves into more various vacation activities。
