Which is better, challenging plans about one's future or practical plans about one's future?
Nowadays, there is a heated dispute over the plan about one's future. Some people hold that a practical plan is better for us due to its low risk and while others argue that a challenging plan deserves more approbation. To be honest, I tend to agree with the second statement because a challenging plan can brings many benefits for people, such as developing one’s potential ability, enhancing confidence as well as earning honor and money (The subject of this sentence is ‘plan’, so your verbs need to go with ‘a plan can …’, and a plan cannot ‘obtain’ honor or money.).
A Challenging plan is essential and crucial for us to disinter the potential abilities. It is well known that people have infinite abilities (Well, that’s VERY arguable..for example, people will not survive an infinite increase in temperature..). Only, however (If you mean what I think you mean, this should be ‘However, only a few…), a few of them have been developed. A Challenging plan often brings huge pressure which can stimulate people to exhume (This means to ‘dig out the dead’, both literally and figuratively..so it doesn’t really associate with ‘potential’, which is not really ‘dead’..do not try to use big words based on their Chinese meanings alone. You should fully understand when and where to use each. If you don’t, keep to simple vocabulary.) potential abilities and assist them to do what seems to be impossible for them. At the same time, people will become more confident and courageous after they experience the challenging plan. Take my experience as an example: I didn't learn the English well before my high school. In fact, I could not even understand a simple English conversation and my pronunciation was not clear or accurate. Mastering English was impossible for me. However, on the first day of high school, my teacher told me that five students who master English in our school could get the opportunity to travel to America after the first semester. It was attractive to me because I was fascinated with the American culture. So in order to get this precious opportunity, I did a challenging plan which was to master English expertly in a short time. I used almost every second to practise speaking English and remember English words. Through the continuous and hard studying, I was selected by the school to travel to America finally. In addition, I gained more confidence from this challenging plan. No matter what difficult problems I met after, I always used the experience of this challenging plan of studying English to encourage myself to face and overcome the problem. (This is a good example, but one that can be described both as ‘challenging’ and ‘practical’..you are motivated by a practical benefit. The problem is that you were not clear about the exact difference between a challenging and a practical plan, or even what ‘practical’ means here – does it mean ‘not stretching the ability, as opposed to challenging’, or ‘pragmatically useful’? If the latter, then a practical plan can be challenging, and vice versa. These are not mutually exclusive attributes. The question as you cited it is very vague in this aspect, and I do suspect that this question is not original. But even so, as I said, you need to be aware of what you are talking about when you say ‘a challenging plan’ or ‘a practical plan’.)
In general, a challenging plan with a high difficulty demands people to spend more effort and energies, therefore, not only much honor but also more money would be given to those people who have achieved challenging plans instead of practical plans, which is beneficial for people to enjoy a meaningful life and improve their quality of life. For example, shortage of rice was one of the biggest problems in the last century in China and it was not dissolved by scientists in a long time. Yuan Long Pin, as the famous agricultural scientist, solved this problem through developing hybrid rice which comes from working day and night for ten years, and received high praise from the society and a large amount of reward from the country. (Again, I can say this is a very practical plan – it has a very pragmatic, immediately useful purpose, and this purpose is focused on the basic needs of people. So you see a clear definition is very important when the question is intentionally vague.)
To sum up, the advantage of a challenging plan is far greater than enhancing ability and confidence; it also embraces (Why ‘embrace’? What are you trying to express?) bringing honor and money. So I am in favor of making a challenging plan about one’s future.(Oh..but your 2nd example is not about ‘one’s future’ at all! The first one still can count but the 2nd one about hybrid rice is really totally out of scope of ‘one’s future’..)
总结:
拼写和用词方面请注意一下。如果要用新词汇,请务必确认自己会用。
论述方面最大的问题就是没有清晰定位到底什么样的叫challenging plan什么样的叫practical plan,它们为什么是互相对比。。所以造成你的举例都是可以同时定义为challenging和practical。。另外就是第二个举例完全跑题。。 |
