托福独立作文的话题范围主要是围绕在教育、领导、儿童、环境、生活、工作、成功、政府、道德等方面,话题是比较贴近我们日常生活学习的,也有很多是讲人生哲理和道理的,而我们前人已经给我们总结出了许多富有哲理,语言优美,同时又通俗易懂的名言警句,我们在写作文时,可以适当引用,放句首作为背景或话题引入,亦或是放段落中间作为论证方法,都是不错的选择。

上次给大家分享了教育、环境、领导三个方面的名言妙语,这次朗阁海外考试研究中心的专家给大家分享工作和健康类的名人名言。

关于工作

考题回顾:

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

People work because they need money to live.

题目翻译:你同意与否?人们工作往往由于他们需要钱生活。

解析:对很多同学来说,第一反应可能就是金钱是工作的第一驱动力(the primary motivation),这也很符合马斯洛的人类需求原理(theory of Maslow),马斯洛认为人们最基本的需求是钱、睡眠和住所(Maslow theorized that people have the basic needs such as money, sleep and shelter.),但是仔细去想人除了为钱工作或者满足了生活基本需求之后的工作都有其他含义在里面的,比如说,满足感(satisfaction),对工作的喜爱(passionate toward work)都能是人们工作的原因。这时候你就可以实时地用上几句非常优美地道的名言妙语:

1. The fact remains that the overwhelming majority of people who have become wealthy have become so thanks to work they found profoundly absorbing. The long term study of people who eventually became wealthy clearly reveals that their “luck” arose from accidental dedication they had to an arena they enjoyed.

事实仍旧是,绝大多数已变得富有的人要归功于他们认为具有巨大吸引力的工作。对最终成为富人的人进行长期研究后清楚地发现,他们的“运气”来自于他们偶然投入自己所热衷的领域。

——史·布洛特,美国作家、记者Srully Blotnick (1941-2004)

2. Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work.

工作中的快乐使工作完美。

——亚里士多德,古希腊哲学家Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC)

3. It has been my experience that one cannot, in any shape or form, depend on human relations for lasting reward. It is only work that truly satisfies.

我的经验是,一个人不能,以任何形式或方式,依赖人际关系取得永久的回报。只有工作才能带来真正的满足。

——贝特 戴维斯,美国演员Bette Davis(1908-1989), The Lonely Life

4. Do not hire a man who does your work for money, but him who does it for love of it.

不要雇佣因为钱而为你工作的人,应雇佣因为热爱你的工作而为你工作的人。

——亨利·戴维·梭罗Herry David Thoreau (1817-1862),美国作家、社会批评家

关于健康

考题回顾:

Which of the following would you change to improve your health: 1. the kind of food you eat; 2. the amount of exercise; 3. the amount of stress

题目翻译:你愿意做以下哪个来提高你的健康:1. 吃哪种食物;2. 运动量;3. 压力大小。

解析:同学们看到这个觉得好难抉择啊,好像通过改变这三项都可以达到提升自己的健康,比如说日常的锻炼防止了很多疾病的产生,例如高血压、心脏病、中风、心血管等危险疾病(Daily physical activity can help prevent heart disease and stroke by strengthening your heart muscle, lowering your blood pressure, raising your high-density, improving blood flow, decreasing the risk for peripheral vascular disease, and increasing your heart’s working capacity.还有很多类似的好处如:减肥,糖尿病等。It can also reduce body fat, which is associated with high blood pressure. By reducing body fat, physical activity can help to prevent and control this type of diabetes.)

再比如说改变饮食方式,如多吃素食,如坚果、全麦食品,也可以给人们的健康带来很多益处,例如降低心血管、肥胖等危险疾病发生几率,预防癌症等。(Maintaining a well-balanced vegetarian diet is healthy and can be beneficial by reducing the risk of diseases, particularly cardiovascular diseases and obesity. Eating variety of soy, nut, or wheat based products can substitute for certain meat dishes and dairy products by providing the needed nutrients those normally provide.)

就是减少压力相对来说对健康难写一点,但会给人们带来身体的放松,心情的愉悦,对心理健康是很有益处的。

而同学们也可以插入名言妙语:

1. Those who think they have not time for bodily exercise will sooner or later have to find time for illness.

那些认为自己没有时间锻炼的人迟早会为疾病寻找治疗的时间。

——爱德华·利,英国诺维奇主教Edward Stanley (1779-18949)

2. Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.

没有什么能够比弘扬素食更有益于人类,更能增加我们在地球上的生存机会。

——艾伯特·爱因斯坦Albert Einstein (1879-1955),

德裔美籍著名理论物理学家、20世纪最伟大的科学家之一、相对论的发现者
