11、決辦法。如果這個裁縫不為這個人量尺寸，他就不能為他做出一件合適的衣服。這個道理同樣適合解決其它任何問題。首先，當(dāng)我們要了解某事的真相時，我們必須如實地對其描述，排除任何偏見與夸張，以便我們能夠得到真實的情況。其次，具體事物要具體分析，這樣我們才能夠抓住事物的規(guī)律。最后，事物的狀態(tài)是不斷變化的，所以我們應(yīng)當(dāng)“因地制宜，同時制宜?！笨傊覀円獜牟煌慕嵌瓤创龁栴}。圖畫的內(nèi)涵對不同的人有著不同的意義。對于教師來說，面對不同的學(xué)生要采取不同的教學(xué)方法；對于醫(yī)生來說，要根據(jù)病人的不同病情采用相應(yīng)的治療方法；對于農(nóng)民來說，面對不同的土地狀況要種植不同的作物。從哲學(xué)角度來說，具體問題要具體分析。好的結(jié)果總

18、心和勤奮的重要性。我們應(yīng)該重視這些故事和歷史，牢記打好基礎(chǔ)的重要性；且還要記住人只有在他愿意堆砌小石塊時才能建造起金字塔。人們摒棄急燥冒進(jìn)并代之以嚴(yán)肅認(rèn)識是明智之舉。堅持不懈必定會走向成功。;.范文 2：We can see in the picture, a great Egyptian Pyramid towering magnificently into thesky.

23、們第一眼看到它時，都會被它的磅礴氣勢所震撼，然而震撼過后，他們都不禁要對眼前這些體現(xiàn)著古埃及人民堅忍不拔精神的巨石驚嘆不已。在漫長的修筑過程中，你不難想象在這個偉大創(chuàng)舉的背后，飽含著人民堅韌不拔的精神與毅力。金字塔的巨石使我們想到這樣一句名言：“羅馬不是一天建成的?！币簿褪钦f，不付出艱辛的勞動和足夠的時間就不會成就偉大的事業(yè)。人類急切希望為自己創(chuàng)造價值。但是，只有耐心和堅韌才能幫助我們完成偉大創(chuàng)舉。以司馬遷為例，假如他不具備上述優(yōu)秀品質(zhì)，成就那樣的偉業(yè)絕無可能。做任何事情，障礙都是不可避免的，除非我們什么都不做。說到底，有了耐心和堅韌才能成功。有些人在看上去不可逾越的障礙面前中途放棄。這些人是
