范文一：My Best Friend
My best friend and I have been inseparable since elementary school. His name is John, a tall and handsome boy with a heart of gold. What makes our friendship special is not just the shared memories but also how we complement each other. While I am more introverted and prefer reading books, John loves outdoor activities and often encourages me to step out of my comfort zone. Through him, I learned the importance of balance between work and play.
翻譯：我和我最好的朋友從小學(xué)開始就形影不離。他叫約翰，一個高大英俊且心地善良的男孩。我們友誼的特殊之處在于，不僅僅是共同的回憶，更在于我們?nèi)绾位パa彼此。我比較內(nèi)向，喜歡讀書，而約翰熱愛戶外活動，經(jīng)常鼓勵我走出舒適區(qū)。通過他，我學(xué)會了工作與娛樂之間平衡的重要性。
范文二：The Importance of Reading
In an era dominated by digital media, the habit of reading books may seem outdated to some. However, reading remains one of the most effective ways to expand one’s horizons and enrich the mind. Each book opens a door to a new world, allowing readers to explore different cultures, histories, and perspectives. Moreover, regular reading can improve vocabulary, critical thinking skills, and even empathy by putting us in someone else’s shoes through characters and stories.
翻譯：在一個數(shù)字媒體占據(jù)主導(dǎo)地位的時代，閱讀書籍的習(xí)慣對某些人來說似乎顯得過時。然而，閱讀仍然是拓展視野、豐富思想最有效的方式之一。每本書都是通往新世界的大門，讓讀者探索不同的文化、歷史和觀點。此外，定期閱讀可以提高詞匯量、批判性思維能力，甚至通過角色和故事讓我們設(shè)身處地地理解他人，從而增強同理心。
