【题目解析】

题目大意：很多大一新生对自己的专业不满意。为什么会出现这个问题？如何解决这个问题。

这个题目中有一个关键词“subject”，这个单词的意思是“an area of knowledge that is studied in school, college, or university”，所以中文应该理解为“专业”，与major和specialisation进行替换。

这个题目属于“报告文”，要求考生回答两个问题；全文需要四个段落，即1）开头段（改写题目+简要回答题目中的两个问题），2）主体1（回答第一个问题），3）主体2（回答第二个问题），4）结尾段（总结主体两个段的内容）

【写作思路】

Para 1 = 题目改写 + 简要回答题目两个问题

Para 2 = 主体1（两个原因）

原因1：选专业前没有充分了解

原因2：大学课程设置不合理

Para 3 = 主体2 （两个解决办法）

解决办法1：选专业前作调查（查阅大学网站；参加大学开放日）

解决办法2：大学定期评估课程（教学团队讨论；征求学生反馈）

Para 4 = 总结段

【参考范文】

These days, a proportion of first-year university students are not content with their elected fields of study. This essay will initially explain why this is happening, followed by some strategies which can resolve this issue. 

There are primarily two factors behind why some new tertiary pupils are finding their majors unsuitable. The first one is that they have little understanding of the subjects before making their decision. Some students choose interpretation as their major because different media resources they are exposed to make them believe that being an interpreter is a “cool” job. However, a fact they may neglect is their inability to bear the intensive training, discouraging them from continuing their learning. Another point is that the courses are not structured well. Some might only have lectures while tutorials are excluded; also, students may have limited time to study before a new topic comes. All these will provide students with insufficient opportunities to digest the knowledge.

To tackle this challenge, several approaches can be adopted. To begin with, students can conduct early research regarding the courses they intend to take. They can browse the internet, especially university websites, to gain more information about their majors. Alternatively, they can attend the Open Day of their ideal universities, during which time constructive suggestions can be given by the lecturers and professors on the spot. Additionally, universities should review different aspects of their courses on a regular basis. Teaching teams themselves can organise meetings to discuss how to improve their courses, and different schools can rely on students’ feedback as a significant source of data upon which to make changes to better cater to all students. 

In conclusion, students’ lack of understanding of their selected majors prior to final decisions and unreasonable course settings are the main causes of some university freshmen being unsatisfied with their courses. However, if students do some research on what they want to learn in advance, and meanwhile, universities evaluate their course syllabuses regularly, this problem can be solved effectively.
