心态哲理类(2011年12月六级真题)
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled The Way to Success by commenting on Abraham Lincoln’s famous remark,“Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
The Way to Success
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree , and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”Abraham Lincoln once said. Although four hours seem to be quite a long time, it can help people chop down the tree more smoothly and less laboriously in the rest two hours. It is obvious that a full preparation can enhance the efficiency of trees-chopping.
The saying aims at informing us of the significance of adequate preparation. Definitely , we can’t emphasize the importance of full preparation too much in our pursuit of success. A full preparation enables us to achieve our objectives and realize our dreams more smoothly and rapidly. The more preparation we make, the more likely we are to become confidence, reduce the risks of failure and seize the fleeting opportunities. For example, when graduates hunt for jobs, it is those who are well prepared that can surpass other candidates and get the offer finally.
Accordingly, at no time should we overlook the power of preparation. Besides, we need to set up a proper goal, carry out a full investigation and elaborate a detailed plan before we take actions. “Preparation breeds success.” Benjamin Franklin also once said. (200 words)
参考译文：
“给我留个小时砍掉一棵树，那么我会花前面的四个小时来磨斧子。”亚伯拉罕.林肯曾经说过。虽然四个小时看起来是挺长的一段时间，然而它却可以帮助人们在剩余的两个小时内更加顺利和省力地砍掉树木。很明显，充分的准备工作可以提高砍树的效率。
这句话目的在于高速我们充分准备的重要性。确实，没有人可以否认充分准备在我们追求成功过程中的重要性。充分准备可以使我们更加顺利和快速地达成目标、实现梦想。我们做的准备越多，我们就更有可能变得自信、减少失败的风险并且抓住稍纵即逝的机会。举个例子，当毕业生在找工作的时候，正是那些做了充分准备的人才可以超越其他的候选人并且最终赢得工作机会。
因此，我们任何时候都不能忽略充分准备的重要性。并且，在我们采取任何行动之前，我们都应该设定合适的目标，展开充分的调查并且制定详细的计划。本杰明.富兰克林也曾经说过：“成功孕育于准备当中。”
