For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark "There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self." You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

答案
Self-improvement Ernest Hemingway once said, "There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self." His remark is thought-provoking because more often than not, some people use others’ life as a yardstick against which to measure their own success. This mode of life will certainly do more harm than good. To begin with, if one keeps comparing his life with others’ life, he may end up pursuing superiority over his peers rather than living his own life to the fullest. Furthermore, if one devotes himself to this fanatical pursuit, he will be unable to spare a moment to reflect on his own experience. Consequently, his personal failings will always be overlooked, not to mention their corrections. In the end, he may be content with himself for having surpassed many of his peers, but he remains to be the person with those same failures, same weaknesses, and more importantly, same ignorance. Hence, one should focus on himself to make self-improvement. In other words, one’s own life should be used as the most important yardstick, or else there would be no improvement at all.
