essay with a brief description of the picture and then express your views on the remark “ Don't follow others' steps when making your own trip.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
As is vividly shown in the cartoon, there are two ways to go upstairs. All except one rush to go by escalator. Though there are so many people still waiting in lines, no one is willing to make any change. Only one man dares to go upstairs by climbing stairs.
The following factors can account for the phenomenon depicted in the picture. Firstly, those who follow suit blindly believe the way chosen by the majority of people is the only right way, and by merely imitating their pattern of behaviors, they can have easier access to success. Secondly, they lack of independent thinking and haven’t any self-confidence, so they just want to be followers.
Just as an old saying goes, “ Don’t follow others’ steps when making your own trip.” We are the masters of our own fates. Therefore, we should be confident about ourselves and don’t follow suit blindly. Under any circumstances, we should believe we can. That belief keeps us searching for the answers, and finally we will make it. We shouldn’t be afraid of failure, only by constantly practicing can wen find the proper ways for ourselves.
点评:第一段详细描述了动画的内容:上楼的两条不同道路,其中一条人们蜂拥而至,虽然上面挤满了人,人们宁愿在下面等着,也不愿意选择只有一个人行走的那条路。第二段列出了这一现象发生的原因。第三段结合俗语“在自己的路程中,不要随波逐流,走自己的路”,引出作者自己的观点——我们每个人都是自己命运的主人。对自己一定要有信心,不要害怕失败。
dare to do sth.表示敢于做某事。account for表示解释,常用于分析某种现象产生的原因。follow suit表示跟从,表示盲目跟从时副词用 blindly。follower表示追随者。under any circumstances表示在任何情况下,无论如何。
