以勇氣為話題的英語作文
Hemingway often thought of courage as a person's ability to be calm and controlled in the face of death. His theme is presented in his novel "For Whom the Bell Tolls?" the story "The Old Man and the Sea" and in our textbook "A Day's Wait". By misunderstanding a different thermometer the boy thought he was running a high fever and would soon die. But he took his death bravely and waited quietly for it. The boy showed us he had courage.
I think such a definition of courage is far from enough. Courage should not be limited and related only to death. In ordinary life there are common things that also show a person's courage. For example, on a bus trip, a thief was trying to steal a girl's purse. Some people saw it, but kept quiet. They were afraid to be revenged by the thief. The brave stood out and stopped the thief.
Courage means truth and justice to me. The person in a high position often hear songs in praise of him. Some people are sincere. Some are only flattering the superior in their own favor. The leader also needs courage to welcome criticism as well as those who have the courage to criticize him. Such courage may come from mutual understanding. I think a man of courage will value truth and justice, and not hesitate in his actions to do what he thinks is right, There is no such word as fear in his dictionary.
【參考譯文】
海明威常常認(rèn)為勇氣是一個(gè)人在面對(duì)死亡時(shí)冷靜和控制的能力。他的主題是在他的小說“喪鐘為誰而鳴?”“老人與海”的故事和我們的教科書“一天的等待”。由于誤解了另一個(gè)溫度計(jì)，男孩以為他發(fā)高燒，很快就死了。但他勇敢地死了，靜靜地等待。男孩告訴我們他有勇氣。
我認(rèn)為這樣一個(gè)勇氣的定義是遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不夠的。勇氣不應(yīng)僅限于死亡。在日常生活中也有一些常見的東西，也顯示一個(gè)人的勇氣。例如，在公共汽車上，一個(gè)小偷試圖偷一個(gè)女孩的錢包。有些人看到了，卻保持沉默。他們害怕被報(bào)復(fù)的小偷。勇敢的人站出來制止了小偷。
勇氣對(duì)我來說意味著真理和正義。那個(gè)地位高的人經(jīng)常聽到贊美他的歌。有些人是真誠(chéng)的。有些人只為了自己的利益奉承上級(jí)。領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人也需要勇氣來歡迎批評(píng)，以及那些有勇氣批評(píng)他。這種勇氣可能來自相互理解。我認(rèn)為一個(gè)有勇氣的人會(huì)重視真理和正義，在他的行動(dòng)中毫不猶豫地去做他認(rèn)為正確的事，在他的字典里沒有恐懼這個(gè)詞。
