作文范文
On Disasters
An old saying goes: Life is full of roses and thorns. As we all know, one’s life is full of unexpected events, some of which are wonderful and some of which are disastrous. Those heavy blows, such as, floods, snowstorms, and earthquakes, threaten to weigh one down.
However、it’s even worse if one can’t drag himself out of the grief in that mental break-down is more serious than the disaster itself. Instead of indulging oneself in sadness, one should take positive attitude towards life and contribute to the reconstruction of his or her life and hometown.
As for me, if I am lucky enough to survive in a disaster, I will try my best to help those who are suffering by donation blood or money. If I am a victim, I will endeavor to recover from the sadness as soon as possible and be certain to be strong and supportive to the recovery work.
参考译文
论灾害
俗话说：生活充满了玫瑰和荆棘。我们都知道，人的一生充满意外的事件，其中一些是美妙的，有些是灾难性的。这些沉重的打击，如，洪水，雪灾，地震，足以把人下。
然而、它甚至如果不能把自己的悲伤，精神崩溃是比灾难本身更严重。而不是放纵自己的悲伤，我们应该采取积极的人生态度，有助于他或她的生活和家乡重建。
至于我，如果我很幸运，在灾难中幸存下来，我将尽我最大的努力去帮助那些正在受苦的献血或钱。如果我是一个受害者，我将努力恢复尽快悲伤，一定要坚强，支持回收工作。
