Script
Some university students say that they don’t like to study content that may not seem useful. But I believe it’s crucial to study seemingly non-essential content at university. First, studying many kinds of things is good for students’ future. Some students who study social sciences say that math is not useful. Even if students don’t use math at that time, it may be needed if students want to change their major. Second, diverse knowledge enriches life experiences. The more knowledge you have, the more interesting you become. People who know about history can enjoy world heritage sites more. I think that knowledge broadens our horizons. Studying various subjects not only prepares students for future opportunities but also enriches their understanding of the world. For these reasons, I think that studying many things has a good effect on students.
