12) Governments should offer a free university education to any student who has been admitted to a university but who cannot afford the tuition.
Write a response in which you discuss your views on the policy and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider the possible consequences of implementing the policy and explain how these consequences shape your position.

It is times with universal belief of democracy, which emphasizes on the equality for everyone in it. Undoubtedly, education involves in these equality. So it is important for government to offer equable opportunity for students and respond to situations where some students, who have been admitted to a university, cannot afford the tuition.



It may be crucial to refuse students from universities just because they cannot afford the tuition.

Their admittance to a university has in a way revealed that they have made effort and studied well in their former education and they are eager to study in universities. But some external factors, which they cannot decide by themselves, impede them from these opportunities. This case is not only unconscionable but also crucial. Thus as the leaders of nations, governments should take measures to cover this problems and the most direct way is free education.



What’s more, considering that lots of greatness graduated from universities, by offering a free education to these students, the government could benefit its nations’ development in a long term. It is entirely possible that one or more among these students will become celebrities who make contribution to their nations or even for humans. Take Steve Jobs as an example. Even though he has not finished any universities’ education, he claimed that it was these curriculums which he learnt from different universities that benefit his success in Apple.





However, it also needs to make sense that if we depend wholly on them to cover these fees, it may result in certain burdens for our governments. Common sense informs us that there are a myriad of problems for our governments to address and in majority of occasions they involve in masses of money. Since our national treasuries are finite, if we claim that our governments should be responsible for this problem in full charge, it may bring some other problems to be compromised. Obviously, it is not rational. Thus, their budget for these students is certainly limited. Considering this point, it is also necessary to advocate more non-government organizations to participate in addressing this problem.





Conclusively, it is governments’ duty to offer a free university education to students who has been admitted to a university but who cannot afford the tuition. However, only depending on our governments to cover this problem may be far from sufficiency. Therefore, it is also necessary to call for more non-government organizations to involve in it.

好吧，你的一句话就吓到我了。
these opportunities，我没有找到these的对应
Thus as the leaders of nations, governments，leader 和 government能否等同
lots of greatness ？？
depend wholly on them ？？them指啥？
result in certain burdens for 我觉得result in 不如 add to 好。还有burden后面的介词用on比较好
语言问题还是很多。另外你有没有想过大学教育完全免费的坏处呢？比如学生堕落不思进取，如果免学费以一种奖学金的形式给学生会不会更好呢？关于你的引进社会资金这个点，可以多写点的。
最后，永远不要顾忌字数问题，这本身不是个问题，只要你觉得自己说清楚了，说的合理，字数不管多少，都不影响
