答案 Sowing the Seeds, Nurturing Growth and Harvesting the Rewards Some people hold the view that a student’s success in university study follows the same pattern as that of farming, which is characterized by the process of sowing the seeds, nurturing growth and harvesting the reward. As far as my own experience as a student is concerned, I fully agree to this view. To begin with, just as the farmers need to sow the seeds in the soil, so the students need to absorb knowledge into their mind. A stingy farmer who spares the process of sowing will find no crop grow in his field. Likewise, a university student’s refusal to knowledge input will result in ignorance. Successful students, however, act in the opposite way. They always listen attentively to the teacher in class. They always read extensively outside class. They never sleep in class. They never idle away their time for nothing. Moreover, whereas the growth of crops needs nurturing, the mastery of knowledge also requires reinforcement. A lazy farmer often neglects fertilizing the soil, only to find his crops in poor conditions and finally have a bad year. Similarly, a sluggish student also fails because he does not bother to consolidate what he acquires in class. In fact, learning does not happen once and for all. This has been proved by the experiences of those successful university students. They review their lessons constantly. They never hesitate to ask the teachers for solutions to their puzzles. They also do a lot of reading related to what they learn in class. Thus they have a better command of knowledge than those who do not take the trouble. As a consequence, the industrious students generally have a greater prospect of success. University study is also analogous to farming in that the more work you do, the greater reward you get. A hardworking farmer who has sowed the seeds and nurtured the plants will finally have a bountiful harvest. Equally, a diligent student who has had an immense intake of knowledge and made it his own will succeed in almost every way. No doubt, he will easily pass all exams. He will beat his opponents with ease in all kinds of knowledge contests. With abundant and profound knowledge he will have no trouble finding an ideal job when he graduates. All this is but a natural result from the efforts he has made. To sum up, the course of successful university study is similar to that of fruitful farming. Just as the saying goes, no pains, no gains. The farmers need to labor all the way for a good harvest. As university students, we also need to work hard throughout our university life.

解析 第1段:引出话题:有人认为大学阶段学习的成功模式如同种庄稼一样经历三个阶段,即播种、施肥和收获。接着,根据自己的学习经历表明自己的态度——支持这一说法。
第2段:首先讨论第1点,指出大学生需要吸人知识,就如同农民需要在土壤里播种一样。不播种,就长不成庄稼。同样不广泛吸纳知识就会无知。好的学生总是在课堂上认真听讲,课后广泛阅读。
第3段:讨论第2点。指出像给土壤施肥一样,学习也需经常性地复习巩固所学知识从而扎实地掌握它们。好的学生往往不会课上一听了之。他们总是会主动、积极地消化老师所讲,认真复习,从而将所学真正变为已有。
第4段:讨论第3点,指出如同辛勤耕耘后往往会有很好的收成一样,认真学习、复习的学生也自然会得到理想的回报。通过长期努力,学生会变得知识渊博、思想充实,而这一切有助于他们在各种考试中轻松过关,在各类竞赛中轻松折桂,在将来求职竞争中轻松胜出。
第5段:总结全文,得出结论,重申自己的观点。引用No pains,no gains这一谚语来进一步支持本文的讨论。
