为了提高
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People are never satisfied with what they have; they always want something more or something different. Use specific reasons to support your answer.
I believe that people are never satisfied with what they have. People always want something more or different from what they already have. This just seems to be part of human nature. Take a small child for example. Give her a toy to play with and she’s happy—until she sees something else. Then she wants that other toy and totally forgets about her old one. If she and her brother are each given a cookie, she’ll look to see whose cookie is bigger.

“The grass is always greener on the other side” is an old expression which expresses how perceived missed opportunities and idealizations of what we don’t have can influence our thinking. We’re always striving for a better job, a nicer place to live, a fancier car, or more expensive clothes. This is because we want to make ourselves feel successful. But there’s also something in our nature that tells us we can do better, something like an instinct towards ambition. Sometimes this is good, sometimes bad.

The problem comes when we won’t let ourselves be satisfied with anything we have. If we have a comfortable life and still feel as if something is missing, then we need to examine ourselves and our own mental and psychic conditions. Perhaps only a change in our spirit can we achieve this peace and satisfaction with our material lives.

满分要素剖析
一、语言表达
1、We’re always striving for a better job, a nicer place to live, a fancier car, or more expensive clothes. strive for表示“争取，奋斗”。
2、“The grass is always greener on the other side” .这是一个很好的英语谚语，值得学习。
3、Perhaps only a change in our spirit can we achieve this peace and satisfaction with our material lives. only位于句首则句子应该倒装。
