2020年12月20日托福独立口语范文： When professors consider assigning research to students, some people think they should assign a specific research topic while others think they should let students decide the topic. Which view do you support?

托福独立口语范文如下：
I think professors should let students decide their own research topics so that they can further study the field they’re interested in. A single module can cover a wide variety of topics and students usually have their preference for certain ones. If professors assign the research topic, some students will end up investing much time and effort in the field they don’t even care about while having no energy for the research they really wanna do. That’s a pity. Moreover, I’m not saying that students should be allowed to choose whatever topics they’re interested in; instead, professors may provide a list of choices related to the course and then let them decide which one they want to further explore.
