你喜欢快节奏生活还是慢节奏生活?
Some people are always in a hurry to go places and get things done. Other
people prefer to take their time and live life at a slower pace. Which do you

[托福参考范文]
Life is short. Haste makes waste. What's your hurry? These three sayings
characterize the way I manage my day to day chores. I don't want to rush through
things; I prefer to take my time.
Life is short. You never know what may happen tomorrow so it is important
to enjoy today. Of course, some people will say that's why it is important to
cram a lot into a day. But then, how would you possibly have time to enjoy all
of those experiences. By doing a few things slowly and doing them well, you can
savor the experience.
Haste makes waste. We are not machines. We can't rush through things
mechanically. If we do, we might forget something; we might take shortcuts. By
taking our time, we can do a chore carefully, completely, and correctly.
What's your hurry? Where's the fire? I don t see any need to rush to the
next experience. There's still a lot to see and learn from the chores around
you. Taking care of your baby brother for instance can be very rewarding. You
could simply keep him near you while you watch TV and write a letter and talk on
the phone. Or you could devote your whole attention to him and observe his
reactions to his environment. You can observe carefully, if you are trying to do
four things at the same time.
To twist a common saying, "Don't just do something, sit there!" Take life
easy and savor each minute. Life is shorter than you think.
