It is vividly depicted in the cartoon that a boy is running along the racetrack with painstaking efforts, sweat pouring down his face. After a long journey, he is making the final spurt toward the finishing line, with strong determination to become the champion. It seems that he could rest for a while to enjoy the ecstasy of victory. However, straight ahead lies a sign which indicates a new "starting point" and urges him to continue rushing to the next destination.
Undoubtedly the cartoon conveys the meaning that life is like the process of running in which one should make constant efforts and never stop making progress. Owing to the quickening pace of life, competition goes increasingly fierce in all walks of life, stimulating everyone to pursue one goal after another. Once a person stops making progress, he can hardly maintain his past glory and survive in this competitive world. As Deng Xiaoping, the great Chinese leader said, "development is the only way." No matter how powerful a country is, no matter how successful a specific institution, it will definitely seek new development in high speed. Generally speaking, neither a country nor a person can remain stagnant.
A case in point is the successful launching of "Shenzhou V Spacecraft" which sets china in a high position of aviation and space flight. Although it means a great achievement for us Chinese, we are facing new challenges in the future and need to do further research in space technology. Another illustration is closely related to us, the examinees. If we pass this test and are fortunately admitted by a university, we shall not stop making efforts. Instead, we are confronted with the challenge of conquering the difficult graduate courses. We still have to strive for success in our future academic study, employment and career. On the whole, these examples effectively clarify the saying that "destination is another starting point." (317)
譯文：
這幅圖畫生動地描繪了一個男孩在沿著跑道奔跑。他付出了艱辛的努力，汗水淌下臉龐。在長途跋涉之后，他在朝著終點沖刺，并擁有強(qiáng)大的決心成為冠軍。似乎他可以休息一下，去享受勝利的狂喜。然而，正前方有一個寫著“起點”的標(biāo)記，鼓勵他繼續(xù)朝著下一個目標(biāo)沖去。
毫無疑問，這幅畫顯示了人生就像跑步的過程一樣，人們應(yīng)該做出不斷的努力，而且決不要停止前進(jìn)。由于生活節(jié)奏的加快，各行各業(yè)的競爭日趨激烈，激勵每個人去追求一個又一個的目標(biāo)。一旦一個人停止取得進(jìn)步，他就很難保持過去的榮譽并在此競爭世界中生存下去。正如偉大的中國領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人鄧小平所說：“發(fā)展才是硬道理。”無論一個國家多么強(qiáng)大，無論一個具體的組織多么成功，它都需要尋求高速發(fā)展。總之，無論一個國家還是一名個人都不能停滯不前。醫(yī)學(xué)全在線gydjdsj.org.cn
一個典型的例子就是“神舟五號”飛船的成功發(fā)射，使中國在航空和空間飛行中處于高端地位。盡管這對我們中國人意味著巨大的成就，但我們在未來正面臨著新的挑戰(zhàn)，并需要在空間技術(shù)方面進(jìn)行繼續(xù)研究。另一個例子和我們考生密切相關(guān)。如果我們經(jīng)過了考試，并幸運地被一所大學(xué)所錄取，我們也不應(yīng)停止努力。相反，我們面臨著征服艱巨的研究生課程的挑戰(zhàn)，并且還要在未來的學(xué)術(shù)研究、就業(yè)和職業(yè)生涯中努力爭取成功�？偠灾�，這些例證有效地證明了“終點又是新起點”這一說法。
