Q: People attend college or university for many different reasons (for example, new experience, career preparation, increase knowledge). Why do you think people attend college or university? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
A: There are many reasons to attend university or college. I'd have to say just one, however, attending university or college is much more rich for our life. I have a several reasons for this.
First of all, attending university allows me to learn more certain subject. For example, in 2003, when I was a junior in University in Tokyo, Japan, I took professor Tanaka's Marketing Class. His class was very interesting and very unique for me. We watched many different kinds of TV commercials almost every week and was lectured about what the mean and the purpose of them. Of course, I usually watched TV commercials at that time, but I didn't realized the strategies of them. Then, I interested in TV commercial. If I hadn't took a Tanaka's Marketing Class, I mightn't have tough that TV commercial is so fun.
In addition, you can make many various type of friend in campus life.For instance, When I enrolled at university, I just came from Miyazaki, local area of Japan and far from Tokyo. So I have few friend in Tokyo. To be honest, I was a little nervous. However, at the first class orientation, one guy talked me suddenly, maybe he was a little nervous too, so we shared the same situation and got along with each other at a burst. He lived in America for six years and He actually had a lot of foreign friends in university. Thus, I made a lot of Tokyo's friends one after another thanks to him. And he and I have got along with each other nowadays. As the example above illustrates, university is the best place to make a valuable friend.
Therefore, Attending the university or college is more rich your life.
Thanks.

If I have to say just one, however, attending university or college enriches our life.
I have a several reasons for thinking this.
First of all, attending university allows me to learn more about a specific subject.
For example, in 2003, when I was a junior in University in Tokyo, Japan, I took Professor Tanaka's Marketing class.
We watched many different kinds of TV commercials almost every week and he lectured about what the meaning and the purpose of them was.
Of course, I usually watched TV commercials at that time, but I didn't realize the strategies of them.
Then, I became interested in TV commercial.
If I hadn't took a Tanaka's Marketing class, I mightn't have thought that TV commercial is so fun. 「mightn't」はあまり使われてないんです。「might not」の方が自然だと思います。
In addition, you can make many various types of friends in campus life.
For instance, when I enrolled at university, I had just come from Miyazaki, a local area of Japan and far from Tokyo. 「local」の代わりに「rural」の方がいいかな。「地方」の意味でしょう？
So I had few friends in Tokyo.
However, at the first class orientation, one guy talked me suddenly. Maybe he was a little nervous too, so we shared the same situation and got along with each other at a burst.
He lived in America for six years and he actually had a lot of foreign friends in university.
Thus, I made a lot of Tokyo's friends in Tokyo one after another thanks to him.
And he and I have got along with each other nowadays. 意味がよく分からないんですけど多分「He and I still get along nowadays」の方がいいんです。
Therefore, attending the university or college enriches your life.
Of course, I usually watch TV commercials, but I never considered the strategies used in making them.
