Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below.
Frederick Douglas once said, “If there is no struggle, there is no progress. This struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, and it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle.” He was right. Progress is something that must be fought for; without conflict, progress simply does not occur.
Does progress result only from struggle and conflict? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

Frederick Douglas曾说：“没有奋斗就没有进步。这种奋斗可以是道德上的，可以是躯体上的，也可以是道德和躯体双重的，但必须要奋斗。”他是对的。进步必须通过奋斗得到，没有斗争，进步根本就不会发生。

Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below.
We place far too much emphasis on experience and achievement in our society. We tend to judge people based on what they’ve done rather than on what they can do. But looking only at someone’s experience and achievements ignores how that person may develop or what that person may become. We can only determine people’s true worth by what they are capable of doing, not by what they have already done.
Should people be judged by their potential rather than by their experience and achievements? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.
1. 题目翻译
当今社会，我们过于强调经验和成就。我们倾向于根据人们做了什么来判断他们，而不是根据他们可以做什么来做判断。但是，只看一个人的经验和成就会忽视他将如何发展。我们只能通过人们能够做什么来确定他们真实价值，而不是通过他们做了什么。
判断一个人应该通过其潜能，而不是过往经验和成就吗?
2. 审题关键词
Experience and achievement, Potential, Judge

反：To judge someone by his experience and achievement is practical and feasible.
补：It is recommended that to make the comprehensive evaluation of a person by the combination of his potential and experience.
