212"If a goal is worthy, then any means taken to attain it is justifiable."
Outline
1，        worthy本来就是一个非常主观的词语。他的价值和意义所在往是基于个人利益之上的（而非他人）。对于在社会这样的大杂烩里，每个人的人生观，价值观都不一样，对worthy的定义也不同。
2，        一些大众公认的有价值的意义的目标，比如减少犯罪，学术上取得成就，一份体面的工作等等，这些不会引起太大的矛盾，所以提倡尽力实现。
3，        但是，有的时候人们在实现值得的目标的过程中常常会违反伦理道德（克隆，放射形武器）甚至和法律矛盾（珍珠港事件）。这种目标的实现是以牺牲大多数认的利益为代价的，绝对不可取。

Worthy, by definition of a more subjective term than it is an objective one, is bogged down at the mercy of individuals’ innermost desire of achieving success advantageous to his or her wishes as opposed to that of others. In such a circumstance,it’s fairly impossble for social beings to reach at a consentaneous agreement on the definition of a worthwhile goal. Nevertheless, there lies a great deal of public-recognized worthy goals which, more often than not, mark the progress of the society and therefore it’s highly recommendable that they are obtained in virtue of any means as long as they do not infringe on others welfare..

First and foremost, the term “worthy” per see carries some ambiguous signification in that different people hold different points of view toward it . For instance, employers who resort to the method of sorting wheat from chaff would swear by it as a quick measure of determining which applicants best fit the job. In the perspectives of them,for the benefits of a company who belives in time is money and is deeply attached to the notion that graphology best reflects a person’s personality and capability in work, what is its worthy goal is to recruit empolyees who are more likely to bring profit to the company in as short a time as possible,even thouth it would be achieved at the expense of missing some talents without good handwriting. Consequently, it pays to adopt the seemingly superficial handwriting analysis as a more efficient way of selecing the right candidates than depending on a CV,interview and testimonial letters which require more time in assessing. For applicants, however, it seems that graphology as a matter of fact deprives them of the rights of egalilarian in job-hunting  competition and thus it is not worthy.This is nowhere more true than on the issue that in the hodgepodge-like society, it’s people’s belifes, notions that bear the immediate interest to their understanding of “worthy”.

On the other hand, there are public-recognized worthy goals which beget comparatively less conflict of benefits between individuals, and thus we should exert our utmost to attain. Say, to be matriculated by a famous university, to find a fairly paid job, to have a harmonious family and so forh. In most events, all these goals are of no maleficient effects on different people due to their positive nature per se. moreover, to a large scope, we can find worthy goals in our society. For example, economy leader may set his goal to promotte economy at large, political leader may strive for the ideal world of peace worldwide. Generaly speaking, these goals benefit every single person and the whole nation as well, in terms of this,even people of different intentions reach at an agreement in understanding worthy goals and it's possible they woudl try to achieve them altogether.

Yet, in the quest of worthy goal, we encounter embarrasment when the process of these worhy goals tramples ethic and moral. The illuminating examples in point invlove clone and radioactive weapon. Concession granted that for the sake of success in war, they are inextricably the most efficacious tools to be relied on, when comes to ethic and moral, however, they are as well the most nefarious means when imposed on innocent ordinary people. In addition, some goals considered worthy will turn out to be infringe on laws. Consider, during the WW II, right after Japanese airforce attacked Pearl Harbor by surprise in 1941, The US government decided that it was necessary to "control" the Japanese Americans for national security reasons. Thus, the government set up a number of Japanese internment camps to confine Japanese US citizens. On the one hand, these people are Japanese by blood and their presence at the time was threatening to US national security so that they should be controled. On the other hand, they are US citizens  by law with full entitlement to citizen rights so that internment of them is actually an act of trampling law. Under such circumstances, people should strike a balance between ethic, moral , law and goal, and ascertain that these goals are not based on the sacrifice of others rights and welfare.

In sum, it’s aribitray, or even selfish to strive for the worhy goals by taking any means, whether maleficent or good for others. Rather, everthing social beings conducted should be within the confines of ethic and law.

(感觉上这一点和后两点连贯性不是很大，等读完全文后再回来看看，呵呵~~)
2、一些大众公认的有价值的意义的目标，比如减少犯罪，学术上取得成就，一份体面的工作等等，这些不会引起太大的矛盾，所以提倡尽力实现。

Worthy, by definition of a more subjective term than it is an objective one, is bogged down at the mercy of individuals’ innermost desire of achieving success advantageous to his or her wishes as opposed to that of others. （第一句写得很漂亮，吸引眼球~）In such a circumstance,it’s fairly impossble for social beings to reach at a consentaneous agreement on the definition of a worthwhile goal. Nevertheless, there lies a great deal of public-recognized worthy goals which, more often than not, mark the progress of the society and therefore it’s highly recommendable that they are obtained in virtue of any means as long as they do not infringe on others welfare..

First and foremost, the term “worthy” per see(se) carries some ambiguous signification in that different people hold different points of view toward (是不是少了一个to~?)it . For instance, employers who resort to the method of sorting wheat from chaff would swear by it as a quick measure of determining which applicants best fit the job. In the perspectives of them,for the benefits of a company who believes in time is money and is deeply attached to the notion that graphology best reflects a person’s personality and capability in work, what is its worthy goal is to recruit empolyees who are more likely to bring profit to the company in as short a time as possible,even thouth it would be achieved at the expense of missing some talents without good handwriting. Consequently, it pays to adopt the seemingly superficial handwriting analysis as a more efficient way of selecing the right candidates than depending on a CV,interview and testimonial letters which require more time in assessing. For applicants, however, it seems that graphology as a matter of fact deprives them of the rights of egalilarian(这个词是不是拼错了呀？不明白是什么意思...) in job-hunting  competition and thus it is not worthy.This is nowhere more true than on the issue that in the hodgepodge-like society, it’s people’s belifes, notions that bear the immediate interest to their understanding of “worthy”.（这一段大半篇幅描写了一个例子，来说明因为不同人对价值的理解不同 不过，首先我读了两、三遍才读懂这个例子具体描述的内容；第二，个人感觉这个例子不是很能说明问题。如果换成员工和领导层对于公司所追求的利益有不同观点，可能会更贴切一点吧~~）

On the other hand, there are public-recognized worthy goals which beget comparatively less conflict of benefits between individuals, and thus we should exert our utmost to attain. Say, to be matriculated by a famous university, to find a fairly paid job, to have a harmonious family and so forh.

Generaly speaking, these goals benefit every single person and the whole nation as well, in terms of this,even people of different intentions reach at an agreement in understanding worthy goals and it's possible they woudl try to achieve them altogether.（这段的段首可以再简单陈述一下有价值目标的公认标准；然后，在结尾的地方，再多说两句因此，我们应尽可能采取所有的手段达到那些造福社会的目标，从而把重心放到题目的后半句上~~）

Yet, in the quest of worthy goal, we encounter embarrasment when the process of these worhy goals tramples ethic and moral. The illuminating examples in point invlove clone and radioactive weapon.

Under such circumstances, people should strike a balance between ethic, moral , law and goal, and ascertain that these goals are not based on the sacrifice of others rights and welfare.

文章的第一个观点感觉上和后面的逻辑连贯性上没有说的很清楚，这个的话占据太多篇幅，就会影响后面两个重点的阐述了。
