历年大学英语六级作文范文：The Importance of Name

　　参考范文

There is no denying the fact that it is a controversial topic whether names are important or not. Some hold the positive view. They claim that a good name, or a name that can be easily remembered, can bring one a lot more opportunities than others. Some Chinese may also believe that a name designed according to the traditional theory of five elements can bring good luck.

Others, however, hold the opposite view. They argue that a name is nothing but a code to distinguish one from another. A person “good” name may not be as successful as the name indicates. In the same way, a person who has a common or casually given name can also achieve tremendous success.

Personally, I believe that both sides have something right, so we should not go to extremes. On the one hand, we have to admit that a well designed name can help a person to some extent. On the other hand, we should not exaggerate the effect of a name on a person’s fate. Anyway, a person’s success mainly depends on his hard work and desirable personalities.

无可否认的事实,这是一个有争议的话题是否名称是很重要的。一些持积极观点。他们声称,一个好名字,或可以容易记住了一个名字,可以把一个比别人更多的机会。一些中国人也认为名字根据传统设计的五要素理论能带来好运。

然而,其他人持相反的观点。他们认为名字只不过是一个代码来区分。一个人“好”的名字可能不成功显示的名称。同样,一个人有一个共同的或随意的名字也可以取得巨大的成功。

就我个人而言,我相信双方都正确的事情,所以我们不应该走极端。一方面,我们必须承认,一个设计良好的`名字在某种程度上可以帮助一个人。另一方面,我们不应该夸大效果的一个名字对一个人的命运。不管怎样,一个人的成功主要取决于他的努力和理想人格。
