參考范文
The proverb—“Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst”—means that life is full of beauty as well as hardship. 1 That’s true for everyone’s life.
For one thing 2 , as one of the most inspiring spiritual forces in the world, hope is like a beam of bright light shining through one’s life. Consequently, hope for the best before setting our goals. With hope, we’ll overcome any difficulty with an optimistic attitude, meet any challenge with full energy, and compete with any rival with enthusiasm. Hope equips us with confidence, which is the key to success. With hope, we will be highly motivated to achieve higher goals.
For the other 3 , nobody can always have a plain sailing the whole life. There do exist many undesirable situations where we have to face setbacks and even suffer failures. “Prepare for the worst” can remind us to be practical and clear-minded instead of being blindly confident. How to prepare for the worst? We should make sufficient preparations for the possible worst scenario. Preparing for the worst helps us relieve the pressure and obtain more hopes to succeed, which enables us to laugh at the setbacks and rise above adversity and failure.
諺語“抱最好的希望，做最壞的打算”的意思是生活雖然美好但同時也充滿磨難。這句話對人人都適用。
首先，希望是世間最鼓舞人心的精神力量之一，就好像一束照亮人生旅途的明光。因此，在確立目標(biāo)前，先抱有最好的希望。當(dāng)我們有了希望，我們將以樂觀的態(tài)度克服任何困難，以飽滿的精力應(yīng)對各種挑戰(zhàn)，情緒飽滿地同對手競爭。希望使我們充滿自信，而自信就是開啟成功大門的鑰匙。有了希望，我們就會有極大的動力去完成更高的目標(biāo)。
其次，沒有人可以一輩子一直一帆風(fēng)順。的確有許多糟糕的情況使我們不得不面對挫折，甚至遭受失敗。“做最壞的打算”可以提醒我們從實際出發(fā)并保持清醒的頭腦，而不是盲目自信。如何做最壞的打算呢？就是對可能發(fā)生的最壞的情況做足準(zhǔn)備。做最壞的打算有助于我們釋放壓力，并在成功的道路上獲得更多的希望，從而使我們可以笑對挫折，克服逆境和失敗。
