参考范文1

A bad situation is always a difficult place to be in. The following will describe both sides of the argument where some believe you should try and improve your position and others believe you need to let things be. It will also show that I strongly believe it is always better to strive for more,and try to create a better life for yourself and any family you may have.

糟糕的处境总是让人很难适应。下面将讨论本争议的双方观点,其中一些人认为你应该努力改善自己的处境,而另一些人认为你应该“随遇而安”。我坚持认为找们努力,为自己及家人创造更好的生活。

Firstly, looking from the viewpoint of accepting bad circumstances, an idea I find deplorable, it is believed by a few that this kind of situation cannot be changed. In the examples given in the question of a lack of money or a job that is disliked, some people can feel that they are happy with where they are, and may be not confident enough to pursue more.

首先,关于接受糟糕的处境这一点,我认为这很可悲,有少数人认为这种情况无法改变。比如题目中所说的手头紧或者工作不好,有些人觉得对自己的处境很满足,他们可能是没有足够的信心去追求更好的东西。

Moving on to the other side of the argument, where people, as i do, feel that when one has a situation that is unbearable he/she should act and, where they can, improve the situation. a good example of this is where I realized, too late, that the invitation for the interview tests hadn't been received as my email account couldn' t receive emails. This was a disaster, as the tests for the jobs had since been completed for the year and I was unable to re-sit them. I wouldn,'t accept this lying down,and through a bit of luck and some hard work I managed to find a good internship with the prospects of employment and a good salary.

接下来再看争议的另一方,像我一样,有些人觉得如果处境不堪,那就应该采取行动尽可能改善局面。比如,由于我的电子邮箱账户无法接收邮件,面试邀请未能收到,当意识到时已经晚了。这是个灾难,因为这项工作的(面试)测试已经过去了,我没法再加考试了。我没有轻易认输,而是凭借一点运气和些许努力,最终找到了一份不错的实工作,有就业前景,薪水也不少。

In conclusion then, simply accepting a situation is defeatist and i will never believe that things simply happen, but are created by dedication, persistence, hard work and a little luck.

总之,遂来顺受地接受一种处境是最糟糕不过的,我也永远不会相信事情“就该如此的说法,相反,事在人为,只要有决心、毅力、勤奋和一点点运气就行。

参考范文2

Life is not always fair; sometimes people grind themselves in bad situations, such as having undesirable jobs or being financially poorer than they would like to be. It is argued by some people that we should simply accept bad situations as a natural state of affairs, while others are in favour of working hard to improve our negative circumstances. Both sides have their valid arguments, but I side more with the latter than the former.

生活并不总是公平的;人们时常陷入因难的情境当中,比如从事一份不满意的工作,或财务上陷入不如意的境地。有人认为,我们应该接受糟糕的情况,把它看成自然而然发生的事情;而其他人则认为该努力改善不利的处境。两种立场都有其合理性,但比起前者,我更支持后者的观点。

In the modern age, humanity enjoys the greatest level of social and economic mobility in the history of our species. Once, it may have been nearly impossible for individuals to better their lives however hard they worked; an indentured farmer in medieval Europe would have no way of ever being anything other than a poor farmer, by virtue of his birth and lack of education. However,nowadays it has been proven that people from all backgrounds can become incredibly successful simply by trying hard to change their situation. Perhaps the most striking examples can be seen in the large number of self-made millionaires in developing countries who started out as dirt-poor farmers.

现代人类享有我们这个物种在历史上拥有的水平的社会和经济流动性。以前,一个人无论多么努力,都几乎无法改善自己的生活;在中世纪的欧洲,雇农由于出身和缺少有,只能一直当穷若的农民。然而,已经证明的是,在令天,来自不间背素的人们努力改变自己的处境,确实可以取得成功。最明显的例子也许是在发展中国家,出身贫困、靠自己白手起家的百万富翁的数量是如此庞大。

Nonetheless, it can still be said that many people find themselves in bad circumstances through no fault of their own. Whether by some cruel twist of fate or their place of birth, it is undeniable that some people are better off accepting their lot in life. This could be said especially for people that placed themselves in unfortunate situations through bad choices, like those who do not find a reasonable career because they have chosen to drop out of school, or criminals for instance. Yet even in these cases it is not unheard of for people to try to make their life better. There are numerous instances of dropouts who study hard to obtain academic degrees and secure gainful employment. There are also many examples of former gangsters reforming themselves while incarcerated and going on to become proponents of preventing youth criminality. Thus, there is hardly any reason for individuals not to endeavour to make their lives better.

然而,仍然有人认为,许多人并非由于自身错误而深陷困境。不可否认的是,对于端些人来说,的方法是接受他们的命运,无论是由于时运不济还是出身所造成的。尤其是对于那些因为选择错误而陷入困境的人来说更是如此,比如因为选择辍学而找不到体面职业的人,再比如罪犯。然而,即便在上述情况下,人们试图改善他们的生活也不是闻所未闻。在许多例子当中,辍学者通过自身努力获得了学术文凭,进而找到了有报酬保障的工作。在许多其他例子当中,曾经的匪徒在监禁过程中改过自新,成了预防年轻人犯罪的倡导者。因此,几乎没有任何理由可以阻止个人努力改善自己的生活。

In sum, I feel that people should always try to better their positions in life, no matter how dim the future may be. To simply give up and accept things as they are is worse than failure.

总之,我认为,无论未来的希望多么渺茫,人们总是应该试图改善生活处境。放弃和接受现实比失败更加糟糕。
