图画清晰地描述了一个场景，在这个场景中，两个学生站在一张校园讲座的海报前面，左边的学生说：“不是我们专业的，听了也没用。”；相反，另一个学生说：“听了或许也有用。”不同的人对待同一场景可能会有不同的态度。
毫无疑问，作者向我们传达了一个明显的信息：我们应该做一个有准备的人。尽管有困难的沮丧，但是正是广泛学*使我们不断地做一些有价值和令人钦佩的事情。此外，一个有准备的头脑不仅使我们充满活力以面对未来的挑战和竞争，也为我们未来的成功奠定了基础。根据国际机构做的最新的一项调查，76.5%的受访者持有的观点是：由于机会总是留给那些有准备的人，所以他们愿意广泛学*，做一个有准备的人。
考虑到这个现象的方方面面，我认为直到我们意识到广泛学*做一个有准备的人的重要性并且付诸实践，我们才能逐渐地培养这种态度并且取得进步。因此，大众媒体，比如电视和网络，应该尽全力去宣传这种积极的心态。此外，作为我们大学生而言，我们应该尽自己的最大努力在空余时间学*有用的知识。只有这样，我们才会拥抱一个更加美好的明天。
