In the second place, in

11、需要善意的谎言，这样才能使交际顺利、和睦。 论据 2：在现实生活中，有时也需要善意的谎言，比如医生对病危的人说还有希望康复，编造理由拒绝别人的邀请等。 论据 3：有时候为了保护自己，在不伤害他人的情况下，我们也需要善意的谎言。 范文主要采用了论据 1和论据 2。 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 My Views on Making Promises A promise is a commitment by someone to do or not to do something. To keep a promise is to uphold the integrity , and to

12、break the promise is the same as telling lies. But unfortunately, more and more people fail to keep their promises nowadays. People now give kinds of promises easily, but their promises are quite fragile. We can see some doctors break Hippocratic Oath by considering interest as the priority. There a

13、re also government officials who forget their promise of serving the people. In my view, the most disappointing example is the cheating in universities.

18、ts of history books, I find that the worlds most successful people unanimously admit that their success depends much on opportunities. And there are also talented people who are unable to achieve success because they are just denied by any opportunity. Therefore, I begin to think that opportunity is

19、 the road to success. When an opportunity comes, it brings promise for success, but that promise never comes true by its own. The popular story of how Newton was hit by a falling apple and thus found the Universal Law of Gravitation also proves this. I suppose many people before Newton saw apples fa

20、ll, but none found anything about gravity. However, Newton took the opportunity to think about the phenomenon further, propose and demonstrate a theory to explain it.

23、访。 如果想获得成功就不能让机遇悄然而逝。我们应该重视机遇，首先认识机遇、把握机遇，做好充分准备，才能走向成功。所以，成功与否，主要在于如何看待机遇。结合例子：苹果落地就是一个机遇，可是大多数人认识不到，只有像牛顿这样勤于思考，具有丰富知识的人才可能把这不起眼的事件当成机遇。 思路 3：成功和机遇是相辅相成的。 机遇带来成功，成功也带来机遇。更形象的说法就是：成功和机遇离得很近，找到机遇，你就找到了成功之路；找到成功，你就找到了更多机遇。就牛顿而言，当苹果落地时，他发现了机遇，也就给自己带来 了成功。他的这次成功又帮助他发现了其他的一些定律。 范文采取了思路 1来说明成功和机遇的关系。 【知识
