英語作文之著名運(yùn)動員劉翔拼搏精神的啟示
Directions:
Study the following picture carefully and write an essay in which you should
1) describe the picture,
2) interpret its meaning, and
3) support your view with examples.
This picture captures a scene from the Olympics in Athens. People all over the world watch in excitement as Liu Xiang moves towards the finish line in the 110 meter hurdle race. His spirit and determination inspire all, and show how valuable giving your all can be. ァ
Life is a continuous process of fighting and one cannot achieve success without effort. Sparing no effort shows that one fears no difficulties. Striving for a definite goal with such perseverance and determination is a valuable quality. One should not stop trying until one has obtained one‘s dream. Everybody should have this spirit of persistence because one cannot attain anything without exerting oneself. One of the waiters at Tsinghua University, for example, received a full score on his TOEFL examination. He earned this score through diligence and self-discipline. Regardless of the task you are undertaking, whether it be preparing for a university examination, or working towards a career，you should always give all your effort. Only when you work hard can you achieve success.
Although one might think that one can complete a job without sparing any effort, this is never true. Perhaps being a top student in primary or middle school did not take much effort or energy. Or perhaps you did not work as hard as your classmates and were still admitted into a university. Every person‘s life includes many troubles therefore it is important to both work as hard as possible and be prepared for life‘s difficulties.
譯文：
這幅照片抓住了雅典奧運(yùn)會上的一幕，當(dāng)劉翔向110米跨欄的終點(diǎn)沖去的時候，全世界的人都在激動萬分地注視著他。他的精神和意志鼓舞了所有人，而且向世人展示了當(dāng)一個人拼盡全力時能帶來多大的收獲。
生命是一個不斷奮斗的過程，沒有人可以不勞而獲。當(dāng)一個人全力以赴時就意味著他無所畏懼。能下定決心，堅定不移地朝一個既定目標(biāo)奮進(jìn)是一種寶貴的品質(zhì)。夢想一日沒實(shí)現(xiàn)，就一日不止步。ァ ∶扛鋈碩加具有這種堅韌不拔的精神，因?yàn)槿绻黄幢M全力，就會一無所獲。例如，清華大學(xué)的`一位食堂師傅在托�？荚囍蝎@得滿分，那是他用勤奮和自律換來的。不管你現(xiàn)在面對什么樣的任務(wù)，是在復(fù)習(xí)備考，還是為事業(yè)而奮斗，你都必須竭盡全力，因?yàn)橹挥羞@樣才能獲得成功。
盡管有人可能會認(rèn)為一個人不用那么全力以赴也能完成一件工作，但這是不正確的。也許你沒費(fèi)多大勁就在中小學(xué)拔尖，又或許你沒有像同班同學(xué)那樣努力也考進(jìn)了大學(xué)。每個人的生命中都充滿艱難險阻，所以你必須隨時準(zhǔn)備面對困難，并為之努力工作。
The photo depicts an exciting scene: the famous athlete Liu Xiang striding forward in the Olympics Games in Athens. Determination is universally regarded as a highly praised quality. It is neither genius nor extraordinary ability that gives us power to deal with and overcome whatever hardship one is confronted with. It is this kind of spirit that enables us to endure the difficult moments and attain our goals. ァ
The determined spirit gives us light when we are in dark moments and encourages when we are frustrated. With this quality, no enemy can overwhelm us, and no obstacles can stand in our way. There are many examples of success being achieved solely through the strong will of the spirit. As in the picture, the athlete is running, with a determined spirit, towards the finishing line in order to obtain the gold medal, considered as the symbol of success for any sportsman. It is determination that leads to success.
It is not easy to cultivate this determined spirit. To do this, we must establish a firm faith in our actions and be ready to devote ourselves to them. We must boldly go through trials and hardships to train our will so as to get rid of the weak points of our moral character. Around us, there are quite a few people with this intense determination and spirit and set a good example for us to follow.

這幅照片描繪了一個動人的畫面：著名運(yùn)動員劉翔在雅典奧林匹克賽場上奮力拼搏。拼搏精神作為一種很高的素質(zhì)得到了廣泛的贊揚(yáng)。在解決和克服擺在我們面前的難題的時候，
拼搏精神給了我們力量，但它并不是與生俱來的卓越品質(zhì)。正是這種精神使我們能夠戰(zhàn)勝困難，達(dá)到目的。
拼搏精神在黑暗中給我們以光明，在挫折中給我們以勇氣。有了這種精神，任何敵人都不能打垮我們，任何困難都不能阻擋我們。有許多例子可以證明，具有拼搏精神才能成功。就像照片中所描繪的，一名運(yùn)動員正朝終點(diǎn)奮力奔跑，力奪金牌，因?yàn)榻鹋剖撬羞\(yùn)動員成功的象征。正是這種拼搏精神指引我們走向成功之路。
培養(yǎng)拼搏精神不是一件簡單的事情。為此我們必須樹立堅定的信念，并且準(zhǔn)備為之獻(xiàn)身。我們必須大膽地經(jīng)受考驗(yàn)，克服困難，磨練意志，從而消除我們性格中的弱點(diǎn)。在我們周圍，有好多這樣具有拼搏精神的人們， 為我們樹立了良好的榜樣。
