题目大意
一些人说所有年轻人都应该上学上到18周岁。你同意还是不同意？
思路解析
这是一道教育类话题，题目本身不难。首先找到限定词：all young people 和 full-time education，有这些词的情况一般都持反对的角度更好写。我们来梳理下“让所有年轻人18岁前全日制学习”的好处和坏处分别有哪些。
好处有三方面：提升年轻人知识水平、帮助年轻人辨别是非以及减少社会不稳定性。
在学校学习能够提升年轻人的知识水平和基础技能，这些对于个人以后的职业生涯会有很大的帮助。年轻人在上学过程中可以学习如何辨别是非对错，同时学校和老师在这个过程中也可以帮助学生避免受到社会上的伤害和不良行为的诱导。同时，这样也可以防止精力旺盛的年轻人在社会上无所事事制造麻烦甚至犯罪的情况发生。
但强制所有人18岁前都参加全日制的坏处也很明显：贫穷的家庭无法负担学习所带来的经济负担，这里不仅仅是学费的支出，还有收入的减少。很多经济条件不好的家庭，都会让孩子提早打工挣钱。如果要避免这个问题，则需要政府和社会制定相应的保障方案。此外，诸如体育特长生和艺术生，则更需要参加专业课程或训练，相比较与其他学生一样的学习内容，这些专业训练对于他们的职业发展更有好处。
提纲
范文示例
Most of teenagers are left in limbo and wait for their future arrangement after graduation from junior high schools. Traditionally, they are required to further their education or drop out of the school to start their career life. So, there is a suggestion that all of young teenagers should continue in education until at least their 18th birthday and it is agreed for the following reasons.
This mandatory policy is implemented by local authority who has the obligation to maintain social security and prosperity. This is because the dropping out rate among high school students will decline to its minimum if compulsory education extends to high school education. In some countries, the high rate of dropping out is ruining the life of young generation who are not sufficiently prepared for the future and have less ability to master related skills to support themselves. So, those who stay in school are less likely to become teen parents, commit crimes, or draw on welfare, which are the source of social chaos.
Besides, lengthening the time that citizens are required to go to schools is also an investment for the community and individuals. After graduating from high schools, some of students are likely to continue their education in colleges or universities while others choose to seek jobs with the credentials. By comparison, high school graduates have large probability to be hired and the proportion of young people not in education, employment and training will fall to a lower level.
Notwithstanding, this policy should consider the willing and right of some learners who are not adept at academic learning. Some of them are talented in a certain area, like painting, music, sports, etc., while disappointing in others, which means that the full-time study may waste the time. Another problem derives from the fiscal situation of the government. The long-term compulsory education needs a large scale of public funds which are spent on school construction and faculty employment, which is a heavy financial burden for the government.
As conclusion, I think that encouraging all of teenagers to complete high school education can solve numerous social problems and this is also beneficial to individuals and society but it is not a panacea and forcing all of them to receive full-time education violate the civil right, which should be reconsidered.
