------题目------
The greatness of individuals can be decided only by those who live after them, not by their contemporaries.
------正文------
Generally speaking, it takes centuries to judge the greatness of individuals. But in some areas, people's greatness can be evaluated by contemporaries.

The reasons why it's hard to evaluate human being's greatness vary. The most important factor is that these great people mostly advance their living times in their theories, ideas, contributions, etc. People sometimes take several decades to realize the contribution of their inventions. Another essential factor is there is no standard to obey in evaluating people's greatness. The commonly used rule in judging a person's whether great or not is his (her) contributions to human beings’ life in a long run, with which it's hard to judge a person's greatness in a short time, sometimes several decades, even thousands of years. Last but not the least; it's hard for people with different culture background, education status, ethnic views and attitudes of themselves to reach a consensus in a short time when evaluating a person’s greatness. They may reach a agreement after debate, argument, vote, communication, etc., and reaching a consensus finally. In this sense, people's attitudes have a remarkable influence on the judgment of a person's greatness.

There are many examples to explaining that the judgment of a person's greatness should take a long time. A famous person in politics is Premier Mao, who dead about thirty years ago. Undoubtedly, he had done very great achievement for China' liberation and preliminary construction. But he also had done many wrong things that hurt millions of people and hamper the nation's improvement for several decades. The judgment of his greatness is still a critical topic. Another example in astronomy is Copernicus, who is famous for his heliocentricism. After his death for several decades, the value of this theory still is recognized.

However, in some research areas (or specific environment), human beings can judge whether a person is great or not in a much shorter time compared with the examples above. McCarthy, called the father of Artificial Intelligence (AI), is recognized a great person in the twenties century. McCarthy coined the term-Artificial Intelligence, and led the research in the AI field for several decades. The fabulous development of the world should owe much to the research results in the AI field, also should owe much to McCarthy. There are also some other examples as McCarthy in the scientific research areas, for example, the father of Internet, the father of DNA, etc.
  
To sum up, generally it will take many decades to judge whether a person is great or not, but in some field (like in scientific field), guided by the commonly used rule-how many contributions have been made to the world, a person's greatness can be recognized in relative short time.

现在我写的感觉是：语言和句式的变换比较困难（从上面的文章可以看出来），素材比较缺乏，比如名人的例子。还有字数好像有点困难。

麻烦大家提些意见， 谢谢了！
另外关于机井有点疑惑，应该看什么时间段的机井？是否分地区？ets每个月好久换题？信息是否准确？
斑竹能否给个链接？
再次谢谢了！祝愿各位好运！

Generally speaking, it takes centuries to judge the greatness of individuals. But in some areas, people's greatness can be evaluated by contemporaries.

The reasons why it's it is 好像在作文中最好用正式表达hard to evaluate human being's greatness vary. The most important factor is that these great people mostly advance their living times in their theories, ideas, contributions, etc. People sometimes take several decades to realize the contribution of their inventions. Another essential factor is thatthere is no standard to obey in evaluating people's greatness. The commonly used rule in judging a person's person whether great or not is his (her) contributions to human beings’ life in a long run, with which it's hard to judge a person's greatness in a short time, sometimes several decades, even thousands of years.这个句子写得有点让人理不清头绪阿 Last but not the least; ，it's hard for people with different culture background, education status, ethnic views and attitudes of themselves to reach a consensus in a short time when evaluating a person’s greatness.如 过按你这句话的意思，还是同时代的人跟伟人的背景更接近阿They may reach aan agreement after debate, argument, vote, communication, etc., and reaching a consensus finally. In this sense, people's attitudes have a remarkable influence on the judgment of a person's greatness.如果本段的TS是首句的话感觉有点不妥，根据你的论点你想表达应该是为什么同时代的人很难给出评价吧？但又没在这段明确说出而且你错列举的三条例尤其是都可以充分展开来写的

There are many examples to explaining explainthat the judgment of a person's greatness should take a long time. A famous person in politics is Premier Mao, who deaddied about thirty years ago. Undoubtedly, he had done very great achievement for China's liberation and preliminary construction. But he also had done many wrong things that hurt millions of people and hamper the nation's improvement for several decades. The judgment of his greatness is still a critical topic. Another example in astronomy is Copernicus, who is famous for his heliocentricism. After his death for several decades, the value of this theory still is recognized.

However, in some research areas (or specific environment), human beings can judge whether a person is great or not in a much shorter time compared with the examples above. McCarthy, called the father of Artificial Intelligence (AI), is recognized asa great person in the twenties century. McCarthy coined the term-Artificial Intelligence, and led the research in the AI field for several decades. The fabulous development of the world should owe much to the research results in the AI field, also should owe much to McCarthy. There are also some other examples as McCarthy in the scientific research areas, for example, the father of Internet, the father of DNA, etc.是否在稍加评论一下为什么这些人能得到同时代人的称赞那？

To sum up, generally it will take many decades to judge whether a person is great or not, but in some field (like in scientific field), guided by the commonly used rule-how many contributions have been made to the world, a person's greatness can be recognized in relative short time.
楼主能在很短的时间内完成此文已经很不错了，不过有些语法错误还是应注意的，在论证上还应加强

Generally speaking, it takes centuries to judge the greatness of individuals. But in some areas, people's greatness can be evaluated by contemporaries.

The reasons why it'sit is hard to evaluate human being's greatness vary. The most important factor…vary, of which the most important one is that these great people mostly advance their living times in their theories, ideas, contributions, etc. People sometimes take several decades to realize the contribution of their inventions. Another essential factor is there is no standard to obey in evaluating people's greatness. The commonly used rule in judging a person's whether great or not is his (her) contributions to human beings’ life in a long run, with which it's hard to judge a person's greatness in a short time, sometimes several decades, even thousands of years. Last but not the least; it's hard for people with different culture background, education status, ethnic views and attitudes of themselves to reach a consensus in a short time when evaluating a person’s greatness. They may reach a agreement after debate, argument, vote, communication, etc., and reaching a consensus finally. In this sense, people's attitudes have a remarkable influence on the judgment of a person's greatness.这段讲的是评价伟人的难处，三个原因：伟人工作重要而不被普通人意识；没有可行的评价规则；个体的差异势必造成无一致评价。

There are many examples to explaining that the judgment of a person's greatness should take a long time. A famous person in politics is Premier Mao, who dead about thirty years ago. Undoubtedly, he had done very great achievement for China' liberation and preliminary construction. But he also had done many wrong things that hurt millions of people and hamper the nation's improvement for several decades. The judgment of his greatness is still a critical topic. Another example in astronomy is Copernicus, who is famous for his heliocentricism. After his death for several decades, the value of this theory still is recognized.举例说明为什么对伟人的评价需要很长时间。而毛老爹的例子说评价是个dilemma的事情，只是列出她的功过，但是没有掺入为什么？这样的例子是没有道理的，哥白尼同学的例子也并能说明原因，仅仅是个时间概念。

However, in some research areas (or specific environment), human beings can judge whether a person is great or not in a much shorter time compared with the examples above. McCarthy, called the father of Artificial Intelligence (AI), is recognized a great person in the twenties century. McCarthy coined the term-Artificial Intelligence, and led the research in the AI field for several decades. The fabulous development of the world should owe much to the research results in the AI field, also should owe much to McCarthy. There are also some other examples as McCarthy in the scientific research areas, for example, the father of Internet, the father of DNA, etc.作为分领域论述，这段倒问题不大，但是我想例子说清他为什么很快被认可就可以，不要抖出他的家底，尤其是fabulous后面赘余

To sum up, generally it will take many decades to judge whether a person is great or not, but in some field (like in scientific field)考试里这么用不合适, guided by the commonly used rule-how many contributions have been made to the world, a person's greatness can be recognized in relative short time.

仓促成文的先例，好好搞搞清楚你的论证思路，给篇我将要推荐的文章贴在后面，你好好看看

同主题写作第二期习作推荐一
【作者：老外280        Edited by David on Mar. 6th 2005】

Can a person's greatness be recognized only in retrospect, by those who live after the person, as the speaker maintains? In my view the speaker unfairly generalizes. In some areas, especially the arts, greatness is often recognizable in its nascent stages. However, in other areas, particularly the physical sciences, greatness must be tested over time before it can be confirmed. In still other areas, such as business, the incubation period for greatness varies from case to case.

We do not require a rear-view mirror to recognize artistic greatness--whether in music, visual arts, or literature. The reason for this is simple: art can be judged at face value. There's nothing to be later proved or disproved, affirmed or discredited, or even improved upon or refined by further knowledge or newer technology. History is replete with examples of artistic greatness immediately recognized, then later confirmed. Through his patronage, the Pope recognized Michelangelo's artistic greatness, while the monarchs of Europe immediately recognized Mozart's greatness by granting him their most generous commissions. Mark Twain became a best-selling author and household name even during his lifetime. And the leaders of the modernist school of architecture marveled even as Frank Lloyd Wright was elevating their notions about architecture to new aesthetic heights.

By contrast, in the sciences it is difficult to identify greatness without the benefit of historical perspective. Any scientific theory might be disproved tomorrow, thereby demoting the theorist's contribution to the status of historical footnote. Or the theory might withstand centuries of rigorous scientific scrutiny. In any event, a theory may or may not serve as a springboard for later advances in theoretical science. A current example involves the ultimate significance of two opposing theories of physics: wave theory and quantum theory. Some theorists now claim that a new so-called "string" theory reconciles the two opposing theories--at least mathematically. Yet "strings" have yet to be confirmed empirically. Only time will tell whether string theory indeed provides the unifying laws that all matter in the universe obeys. In short, the significance of contributions made by theoretical scientists cannot be judged by their contemporaries--only by scientists who follow them.

In the realm of business, in some cases great achievement is recognizable immediately, while in other cases it is not. Consider on the one hand Henry Ford's assembly-line approach to manufacturing affordable cars for the masses. Even Ford could not have predicted the impact his innovations would have on the American economy and on the modern world. On the other hand, by any measure, Microsoft's Bill Gates has made an even greater contribution than Ford; after all, Gates is largely responsible for lifting American technology out of the doldrums during the 1970s to restore America to the status of economic powerhouse and technological leader of the world. And this contribution is readily recognizable now--as it is happening. Of course, the DOS and Windows operating systems, and even Gates' monopoly, might eventually become historical relics. Yet his greatness is already secured.

In sum, the speaker overlooks many great individuals, particularly in the arts and in business, whose achievements were broadly recognized as great even during their own time. Nevertheless, other great achievements, especially scientific ones, cannot be confirmed as such without the benefit of historical perspective.
