【正确答案】
【答案解析】Sample Writing
As is described in the picture, a young man is consulting a thick book about how to untie a glutinous rice dumpling. It is evident that he has spent lots of time searching for the answer from the book. But most of us know the best way to solve this problem is to untie one of the dumplings on the plate by untying it directly.
The picture reveals the point how to tackle a practical problem: to refer to a book first or to solve it by doing it directly? If we rely too heavily on others" ideas and think little of making and fixing things with our own hands, we would lose our ability to do them ourselves, not to mention the ability to create, just as the case of the man in the picture.
In short, when facing a problem, if we can solve it ourselves, just do it; it would be better to do it creatively. If the problem is beyond our ability, try to find the solutions by referring to other sources of knowledge, such as books. Besides, I strongly suggest parents give children more opportunities for hands-on learning to develop the ability to cope with problems.
