The professor should be supported to give a speech, saying that reading is to make money and drive students out. In the speech, teachers and students were dissatisfied because of improper content and were stopped on the spot. This kind of news has attracted everyone's attention, and also caused a discussion on whether reading should have utilitarian purposes. Should we study with utilitarian purpose? On this issue, my view is that the direct purpose of reading is to acquire knowledge, and the ultimate purpose of reading is to succeed in career. The "utilitarian heart" exists in each of us, so we should face it squarely.

First of all, the direct goal of reading is to acquire knowledge. There is no utilitarian purpose in this. Books record all kinds of knowledge, and the process of reading is the process of learning these knowledge. Therefore, the direct purpose of reading is to learn, in order to acquire this knowledge. In this process, there is no utilitarian purpose. At this time, we will study calmly and wholeheartedly without any distractions. Therefore, when we study to achieve our direct purpose, there is no utilitarian purpose.

Second, the ultimate goal of our study is to have a successful career. This also does not contain utilitarian elements. The ultimate goal of reading is to let yourself master the corresponding professional skills, let yourself have the corresponding ability, let your career develop continuously, and finally achieve the ultimate goal of success. In the process of studying hard and developing my career, I am trying to realize my life ideal, which does not include utilitarian purposes.

Third, "utilitarian heart" exists in each of us, and we should face it squarely. In each of us, there are all kinds of ideas, including "utilitarian heart". Utilitarianism exists objectively, so we should face it squarely. In the process of reading and studying, it is understandable that there are some utilitarian purposes in our own minds, and in fact we can't put an end to this kind of psychology, but as long as we can control our utilitarian heart with reason and don't let it affect our development and progress, there will be no problems, let alone a bad impact on our development and progress.
