今日作文題:

Work and Rest 工作與休息

提示句:

對(duì)“工作與休息”的總體看法;
一些學(xué)生為了得高分而忽視了休息;
健康是成功的基礎(chǔ)。

范文:

Just as a famous saying goes: all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. It is obvious that people should have adequate rest in order to work hard.

正如一句俗語(yǔ)所說(shuō),“只工作,不玩耍,聰明的孩子也變傻”。很顯然,人們應(yīng)該充分休息以便于更努力地工作。

Yet some students especially those who are preparing for the college entrance examination are worried about their lessons and spend all their day time going over them. In their eyes they should sacrifice their rest time in order to get high scores on tests. As a result they suffer greatly from poor health and some of them may do poorly in the examinations.

然而許多學(xué)生,尤其是那些正在為高考而積極備戰(zhàn)的學(xué)生,卻總是擔(dān)心自己的功課,從而把全部時(shí)間用于復(fù)習(xí)功課。在他們看來(lái),為了在考試中獲得高分,他們應(yīng)該犧牲休息時(shí)間。然而,他們的健康卻嚴(yán)重受損,一些人考試時(shí)反而做得很糟糕。

In conclusion we should be aware that nothing is more valuable than health which is a foundation of one's success. With a poor health one can hardly succeed in anything he does. Therefore as student we should have enough rest to ensure a healthy body to work and study.

總之,我們應(yīng)該意識(shí)到,沒(méi)有任何東西比健康更重要,健康是成功的基礎(chǔ)。一個(gè)人如果身體很差,做任何事都很難成功。因此,作為學(xué)生,我們應(yīng)該有足夠的休息以確保身體的強(qiáng)健,從而才能更好地學(xué)習(xí)和工作。

NOTES

1. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. 這是一句很有名的英語(yǔ)諺語(yǔ)。dull boy: 呆笨的男孩。來(lái)看句例句:You're not going to study all weekend, are you? Remember, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. 你不會(huì)把整個(gè)周末都用于學(xué)習(xí),是不是?要記住,有勞無(wú)逸,有害無(wú)益。

Jack可以算是英語(yǔ)中的大紅人了,有很多關(guān)于他的說(shuō)法,除了剛才這句以外,還有:Jack of all trades and master of none.(萬(wàn)事皆通而一無(wú)所長(zhǎng)的人),a Jack on both sides(模棱兩可,兩面派),Jack at a pinch(臨時(shí)拉來(lái)幫忙的人),All shall be well, Jack shall have Jill.(有情人終成著屬)……還有很多,我們就不一一列舉了。

2. sacrifice n./v. 犧牲
常用搭配:sacrifice sth. for…,例如:A mother will sacrifice her life for her children.(母親將會(huì)舍身救自己的孩子)。另外還可以說(shuō)at the sacrifice of,例如:He earned money at the sacrifice of his health.(他賺了錢卻付出了健康的代價(jià)),相當(dāng)于at the cost of。

3. suffer:感到疼痛、痛苦;承受,遭受。suffer from…:患有(疾病等);遭受……之苦,因……而吃苦。兩者的區(qū)別在于:suffer指一般的損害、痛苦等等,但suffer from指長(zhǎng)期的或習(xí)慣性的痛苦或困難。
