答案 Young people tend to think that real life is as dramatic and fascinating as it is in the novels and movies, while more experienced adults think this kind of naive daydream will only be destroyed by later experiences and every one should learn to get used to tedious everyday life. In fact I believe this is a question of more than one aspect. Realism is necessary, but idealism is also indispensable to increase the quality of our life. Let’s first take a glance at realism and idealism in literature, which is the reflection of human life. There have been many great realistic works describing a certain period of history. These books not only shook the world of their times, but also keep moving for centuries, among them "Oliver Twist" , "Uncle Tom’s Cabin" and "A Native Son". But many romantic stories gained high popularity as well such as "Scarlet Letter" and "gone with the Wind". The literature will lose its glamour without either kind of works. The same is true in our life. In order to support ourselves, we should learn to produce something to lead a decent career and earn a living. That is our work, and it’s realistic. But every one can imagine what life will look like if we can not enjoy our favorite music, if all the gardens are filled with apple trees instead of red roses and golden tulips, if going fishing is not for relaxing but for earning money. That is a grey and dull picture of life. No one intends to turn our world into a world like that. Furthermore, even when we work, we can do it well and enjoy it only when we have a genuine love of it. So it is clear that romance is as important as reality. To see the importance of romance more clearly, we must think of the goal of our work, of our joint efforts. We work hard in order to make the world a better place to live in, in order to create more pleasant life for ourselves and our successors. If we sacrifice romance just because we want to do better work, we go away from our destination. It is unwise as anybody can see. So let all of us enjoy. Enjoy the blue of a clear sky, enjoy the harmony on a violin string, enjoy the excitement of sports, enjoy each deep feeling pressed on our hearts, for that is just the way life should be. When there are some young people who go too far away from reality, let’s help them adjust, let’s persuade them to think more hard-headedly, but let’s not blame them for being romantic.
