　　Is Television a Blessing or a Curse

　　"Early bird catches the worm" is a well-known proverb which all of us are familiar with. I fully agree with it and its implication, in my mind, can be justified in three respects.

　　“早起的鳥兒有蟲吃”是個(gè)很出名的諺語，我們都很熟悉。我完全贊同這句話，而且我認(rèn)為，它的含義可以從三個(gè)方面進(jìn)行說明。

　　First, it takes time to accomplish a task the earlier you begin，the more likely you will reach your goal earlier. Otherwise you call never be sure of your success. Second, when diligence becomes a habit, nothing will be difficult to a determined and persistent person. For example, you will never feel bored and tired at doing social investigation if you really enjoy it. Third, looking at the matter from another perspective， we will find that social resources are always limited and opportunities are always for those prepared minds.

　　第一，要完成一項(xiàng)任務(wù)需要時(shí)間一一你越早開始，就越有可能更早達(dá)成你的目標(biāo)。否則你不可能確保你的成功。第二，當(dāng)勤奮變成一種習(xí)慣，對(duì)一個(gè)有決心能堅(jiān)持的人來說，沒有事情是困難的。比如說，在做一項(xiàng)社會(huì)調(diào)查的時(shí)候，如果你真正喜歡它，你就從不會(huì)感到無聊和疲憊。第三，從另一角度來看這一問題，我們會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，社會(huì)資源總是有限的，機(jī)會(huì)總是留給那些有準(zhǔn)備的人的。

　　Living in an age when most people are intelligent, diligence seems more than necessary. As the modem competition becomes more and more fierce, we should realize the importance of early beginning. (152 words)

　　生活在一個(gè)大部分人都很聰明的年代，勤奮看起來非常有必要。由于現(xiàn)代的競爭變得越來越激烈，所以我們應(yīng)該意識(shí)到早點(diǎn)開始的重要性。
