Life is a struggle. I shall never forget the most striking part of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow' s poem -- A Psalm of Life: "In the world's blood field of battle, In the bivouac of life, Be not like dumb, driven cattle! Be a hero in the strife!"
生活是一场斗争。我永远不会忘记亨利·华兹华斯·朗费罗诗中最引人注目的部分——生命的诗篇：在这个世界上，在战场上，在生活的营地里，不要像被驱赶的蠢牛那样！在纷争中做英雄！&“
Ludwig van Beethoven was a typical "hero in the strife". He was not only one of the greatest composers, but also one of the most persevering men. As a deaf man, he went on working with his strong will in the last year of his life, though he was not able to hear his own fine and original music. Another example of persistence in struggle is Deng Yaping. She once said that her technique came from continuous training, emphasizing the importance of daily practice to a player.
路德维希范贝多芬是冲突中典型的英雄。”；。他不仅是最伟大的作曲家之一，也是最坚忍不拔的人之一。作为一个聋子，在他生命的最后一年里，尽管他听不到自己优美的原创音乐，但他仍怀着坚强的意志继续工作。坚持斗争的另一个例子是邓亚萍。她曾经说过，她的技术来源于不断的训练，强调了每天练习对一个运动员的重要性。
As a student, I seem to be in a boat sailiug against the current. I must make an effort to forge ahead. A little carelessness will result in being driven back. Indeed, learning is a struggle against idleness and carelessness. Following the examples of Ludwig van Beethoven and Deng Yaping, I shall take great pains to urge myself on, moving steadily forward like a heroic boatman in the rough sea of knowledge.
作为一个学生，我好像在逆流航行。我必须努力向前迈进。稍有不慎就会被赶回去。的确，学习是一种与懒惰和粗心作斗争的过程。我将以路德维希范贝多芬和邓亚萍为榜样，不遗余力地鞭策自己，像知识海洋中的英雄船夫一样，稳步前进
