參考范文
Ernest Hemingway, the Nobel prize winner, has a famous remark, “Man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated.” That means one should be strong, confident and optimistic. 1 Even if you lose the game, your spirit should always remain upbeat. 2
Life is full of difficulties and failures. Meanwhile, man is endowed with strong personalities, such as courage, confidence, optimism, great ambition and strong will, with which one challenges the nature, decides his fate in his ceaseless pursuit of life, overcomes difficulties and failures and scores the last victory. 3
As human beings, we should lead a life with dignity and grace. Dignity and grace mean heroism and strong personalities. That is easier said than done. Without unconquerable spirit, one can be easily defeated by fate. But with such spirit, one can be capable of claiming spiritual victory even under disastrous circumstances. To be a man is to act with dignity: not to succumb to suffering but to shoulder one’s duty without complaint. 4
Bravery and confidence coupled with a spirit that one never gives up can change a tragic fate. 5
諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)獲得者歐內(nèi)斯特?海明威有一句名言：“人生來不是被打敗的，一個(gè)人可以被毀滅，但不能被打敗?！蹦且馕吨艘獔?jiān)強(qiáng)、自信和樂觀。即使你失敗了，精神上也要一直積極樂觀。
人生充滿了困難與失敗，但同時(shí)，人被賦予了堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的品質(zhì)，比如勇敢、自信、樂觀、偉大的志向和堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的意志。憑借著這些性格品質(zhì)，人可以挑戰(zhàn)自然，在不斷追求的人生中決定自己的命運(yùn)，克服困難與失敗，最終取得勝利。
作為人類，我們應(yīng)該過著擁有尊嚴(yán)、優(yōu)雅的生活。尊嚴(yán)和優(yōu)雅意味著英勇和堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的個(gè)性。這說起來容易，做起來難。如果沒有百折不撓的精神，一個(gè)人很容易被命運(yùn)打敗。但有了這種精神，一個(gè)人就算身處災(zāi)難境地，他也可以獲得精神上的勝利。作為一個(gè)人，就要以尊嚴(yán)行事：不向苦難低頭，毫無(wú)怨言地承擔(dān)自己的責(zé)任。
勇氣、自信以及絕不放棄的精神可以改變悲慘的命運(yùn)。

句法點(diǎn)評(píng)
1. Meanwhile, man is endowed with strong personalities, such as courage, confidence, optimism, great ambition and strong will, with which one challenges the nature, decides his fate in his ceaseless pursuit of life, overcomes difficulties and failures and scores the last victory.
這是一個(gè)復(fù)雜句，其中包含了“with+which”引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句，which指代的是strong personalities。
2. That is easier said than done.
這是一個(gè)固定表達(dá)，表示“說起來容易，做起來難”，用在文中起過渡的作用，承上啟下。
