(一)预测范文
There is a saying that “Good habits result from resisting temptation”, to which I can’t agree more. Unfortunately, lack of determined will and social experience, teenagers frequently fall into the traps of temptations such as Internet games, smoking, drinking, and so on.
In a bid to form good habits, one needs a strong will and perseverance to resist temptation. Numerous examples can be given but the following will suffice. The outstanding habit of reading classic literature on a regular basis is a case in point. Nevertheless, you would definitely have to spend less time on your favorite Internet games or fascinating mobile phones. Likewise, the good habit of doing exercises every day means repeatedly dragging oneself away from the TV series and cozy couch. These cases effectively clarify that good habits arises from resisting temptation.
As has been mentioned above, a wise mind and determined will should be gradually cultivated so that the adolescents can resist various bad temptations and form excellent habits. Just as Oscar Wilde, an esteemed British novelist put it, “I can resist everything except temptation.”
(二)参考译文
有句话说“好习惯来自于对诱惑的抵制”,我非常赞同这点。不幸的是,青少年缺乏坚定的意志和社会经验,总是陷入网络游戏、吸烟、喝酒等诱惑的陷阱。
为了养成良好的习惯,人们需要坚定的意志和恒心来抵制诱惑。有无数的例子可以证明,但下面这些例子足矣。经常阅读文学经典的好习惯就是其中之一。然而,你必须在心爱的网络游戏或诱人的手机上花费更少的时间。同样,坚持每天锻炼的良好习惯意味着日复一日强迫自己远离电视剧和舒适的沙发。这些例子有效地证明:好习惯源于对诱惑的抵制。
综上所述,我们年轻人应该逐渐培养明智的心态和坚定的意志,以便抵制各种各样不好的诱惑并形成良好的习惯。正如英国著名作家奥斯卡·王尔德所说:“除了诱惑,我什么都能抵制。”
