A poll conducted this year by zhaopin.com, a job-hunting service, reports that 6.3% of 2015 college graduates hope to start their own companies. This has almost doubled the figure for last year.  Driven  by  this  trend as well as encouraged  by the  Chinese  government's preferential policies for startups (创业公司), many college seniors are facing the dilemma as to whether to try to establish a business or to look for a job upon graduation.
 
Some people, mostly entrepreneurs-to-be, claim that with their passion, openness and creativity, as well as their knowledge, graduates can bring their potential into full play when building a startup. Others argue that new graduates, who have long been in the ivory tower of education, will find launching a business too difficult. Apart from finding the initial investment, operating a startup also requires the managerial experience and social connections which can only be gained through years of work in a mature enterprise.

比赛内容:选手完成一篇记叙文写作(600-800词)。侧重考查选手的阅读理解、语言运用、细节描写、形象思维、创意构思、人文素养等综合能力。
