Hardship: A Blessing in Disguise
In his book Twilight of the idols, the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche ['ni:t??] wrote: “What does not destroy me makes me stronger.” For Nietzsche, adversity was a means of strengthening the mind and soul. In my opinion, although not everyone may survive misfortune, those who do are often transformed in
To begin with, adversity can strength people and make them more resilient/strong-willed. By surviving tragic circumstances, necessary to any future difficulties they may face. For example, unemployed workers struggle for an entire year before finding a job social support systems, confiding in trusted friends, or writing a diary about their experiences, which enables them to get through difficult times.
In addition, suffering hardship can teach people to be happier and to live life to the fullest. It can enable them to see life in a brighter light, spend less time worrying about trivial matters, and cherish every day as if is were a precious gem. Survivors of deadly natural disasters, for instance, will be thankful to have escaped with their lives. Similarly, those who battle and survive cancer will regard themselves as blessed and learn to cherish life more than ever before. Thus, they will cherish their life more instead of idling way their time.
Last but not least, sustaining hardship can lead one to a new direction in life or even a higher calling. In 1981, John Walsh suffered the kidnapping and murder of his six-year-old son, Adam. He later went on to become a prominent anti-crime activist and the host of America’s Most wanted, a TV show that has led to the capture of over 1000fugitives. As another example, in 193, Joanne Rowling (now widely known by her pen name, J.K. Rowling)was unemployed, suffering from depression and had contemplated suicide. It was in this state of despair that she conceived the first rudiments of the best selling Harry Potter series.
There will always be some people who, in the face of physical or emotional hardship, fall into an abyss and are never heard from again. However, as we have seen, suffering can be turned into strength. Those who make it through to “the other end” will have gained resilience, a greater appreciation for life, and even a new life direction as a result of having conquered adversity.
第二篇:英语专四作文满分范文:校园恋爱
专四题目:校园恋爱
Many students date during their university days because it's their best opportunity to find pure love. Some students do not because they say it is a waste of time and money. What is your opinion about campus love?
专四范文:
Students Are Entitled to Experience True Love
Should universities discourage students from dating on the grounds that' it is a waste of time as well as energy? Or is it justified for students to venture into a romantic relationship from which they will learn valuable lessons absent from their textbooks? I personally advocate campus dating.
Opponents may argue that university students should place study as their priority as dating in all likelihood may distract them from this objective. However, learning is not all about memorizing textbooks and passing exams. True love holds the key to happiness in life and students are entitled to experience it. Admittedly, a relationship may serve as a distraction in some cases? Yet, it can also yield beneficial results. Couples may encourage each other to achieve academic excellence and support each other in times of crisis. Furthermore, it is tantamount to cruelty to hinder the pursuit of true love. The decision as to whether or not to start a relationship should be an entirely personal choice free from interference. In the final analysis, I believe that students can learn so much from a relationship, such as tolerance, care and compromise. All of these will serve well foll their future success both in career and in life.
In conclusion, campus love promotes happiness, and can be beneficial towards academic study and therefore should be a matter of personal choice. (225 words) 更多专四作文精彩句子:
