In your view, is it beneficial for individuals to depend highly on themselves?标准答案Self-dependence第一段：While some people attempt to lead a life ofcomplete self-dependence, others prefer to rely on theassistance of friends, relatives or neighbors whenever andwherever possible. This raises the question: Is it better tobe self-reliant or, instead, to rely on those around us? Inmy opinion, while self-reliance is an important quality thateveryone should strive to develop, it is also important thatwe know how to enlist（取得）and accept the support ofothers.第二段：One reason that self-dependence is a valuableattribute is that it can improve our efficiency andproductivity（生产力）. In our everyday lives, there willalways be occasions when we are unable to obtainoutside assistance and have to depend on our ownknowledge and problem-solving skills. In thesesituations, people who habitually rely on others will findthemselves at a loss and end up sitting around idly（无所事事地）until they can be “saved”. In contrast, thosewho trust their own powers and judgment will find acreative solution to the problem at hand（现实问题）,enabling them to be more productive and successful.第三段： In addition to fostering（养成）greater efficiency（高效）in our daily lives, self-dependence can alsohelp to make life more meaningful. Because self-reliantindividuals possess confidence in their own abilities,they also tend to be more willing to try new things ontheir own. For example, they might teach themselveshow to play the guitar, bake（烘焙）an apple pie, orgrow a flower garden. These kinds of do-it-yourselfactivities can yield a sense of satisfaction and pride,and add excitement to an otherwise mundane（平淡的）life.第四段： Nevertheless, it would be difficult to survivewithout the assistance of others. As the English poetJohn Donne（约翰邓恩）noted, “No man is anislandEvery man is a piece of the continent, a part ofthe main.（谁都不是一座岛屿，自成一体，每个人都是一个碎片，那广袤大陆的一部分）” A doctor might haveto call a plumber（水管工）to fix a leaking faucet（漏水的水龙头）; an engineer may need to ask anaccountant（会计）to fill out his tax returns（纳税申报单）; and a lawyer with a sore tooth will have no choicebut to consult a dentist. Each of us possesses a limitedset of skills and expertise（技能）. To succeed, it isnecessary to enlist（综合）each others wisdom andexperience and use it to our collective advantage（实现共同的利益）.第五段： In the final analysis, neither complete selfdependencenor excessive reliance on others isadvisable（明智的）or even feasible（可取的）.Insofar as（就而言） self-reliance can boost ourefficiency and add meaning to our lives, I believe that itis a desirable trait to possess. However, consideringthat everyone requires the assistance of others at onetime or another, we should not be afraid to seek thehelp of those around us whenever it is necessary orprudent to do so.
