·参考范文&点评·

People are now increasingly aware of the challenges in making a decision when faced with too many choices. We are faced with various choices since our childhood, such as choosing friends, schools, careers and so on. Different choices will surely bring different lives. Therefore, it is of great significance to make decisions carefully. 1

From my perspective, there are both positive and negative aspects no matter what choice is made. Take us college students as an example. We are about to graduate and will face a dilemma of choosing whether to take the postgraduate entrance exam or hunt for jobs after graduation. On the one hand, pursuing postgraduate study can help us improve our academic level and lay a solid foundation for our future career development, while also requiring a lot of time and effort. On the other hand, going to work allows you to enter the workplace earlier and gain practical experience, as well as a certain amount of money. But in an increasingly competitive society, your career development may be limited by not having a distinguished educational background. 2

In short, any decision has two sides. We need to take our own actual situation into account in order to make a wiser choice. 3

1 引出话题,指出谨慎地做决定意义重大。

2 阐述个人观点,以大学生为例,讲述大学生面临考研还是就业的两难抉择,分析不同选择各自的利弊,由连接词On the one hand、On the other hand引出。

3 总结全文,重申任何决定都有两面性这一观点。

·范文译文·

如今,人们越来越意识到在面对太多选择时做决定的挑战。从儿时起,我们就面临着各种各样的选择,如选择朋友、学校、职业等。不同的选择必将造就不同的人生。因此,谨慎地做决定意义重大。

在我看来,无论做出什么选择,都有其积极和消极的方面。以我们大学生为例。我们马上就要毕业了,毕业之后我们将面临选择考研还是找工作的两难困境。一方面,读研可以帮助我们提升学术水平,为我们将来的职业发展打下坚实的基础,但这也需要花费大量的时间和精力。另一方面,就业可以让你更早地进入职场,获得实践经验,同时也能获得一定数额的钱。但是在一个竞争日益激烈的社会,你的职业发展可能会因为没有出色的教育背景而受到限制。

总之,任何决定都有两面性。我们需要考虑自身的实际情况,以便做出更明智的选择。
