英語的徵文：
“Once upon a time， there was a king who had a daughter as beautiful as a blooming rose. To all the suitors who came to the king's palace to ask for the hand of the princess, the old king assigned three tasks to be accomplished, each next to impossible. One day, into the king's palace came a handsome young prince..." Well, you know the rest. The three tasks may be different in different versions, but the main plot is always the same, with the prince claiming the princess's hand triumphantly.
And the ending is always the same, finishing with the line "And they live happily every after."
Why aren't we tired of something so fanciful, so unrealistic, and, I would say, so unimaginative? How can a story like that endure generations of repetition`? Because, I think, it is a typical success story. It is highly philosophical and symbolic. By implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1 ) a goal to be set. as represented by the beautiful princess; 2 ) challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks; 3 ) the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through; and 4 ) the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.
The story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result. The reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa. If a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence. The term "success", to be sure. will not sit still for easy definition. But as I understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor. To clarify my view, let me give another analogy.
If we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away David Seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another David, namely David Beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings. If we further changed the rules by not allowing Arsenal's defenders to defend, so that Beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared. In accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value. The sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.
The concept of success is not constant but relative because the nature of difficulty is also relative. Something you do effortlessly might pose a great difficulty for a handicapped person. In acquiring the ability to do the same as you can, he or she achieve success. That's why we greatly admire Stephen Hawking, because, though confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science.
I myself, a rather shy person by nature who easily suffer from stage fright, had to pluck up great courage to take part in a speech contest like this. I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not entering the university level I chose to accept the challenge and to face the difficulties. Now here I am. If I come out first, it will be a great success for me. If I come out last-I hope this will not be the case-but if I come out last, I will not call my attempt a failure, but will also celebrate it as a true success, because part of my goal is my own character training-to do more assertive, to be brave in face of difficulties. For me, it is a meaningful step forward, small as it is, in the long journey toward the final success in my life, because I have truly gained by participating.
Let us return to our handsome young prince and the 4-step definition of success. You my have noticed that the usual worldly criteria of wealth, position and fame were not mentioned as part of the story, but rather, it emphasized the process of overcoming difficulties. The ancient wisdom had already defined the meaning of success, and this is my definition, too.
英語寫作的技巧：
清晰
作文的清晰體現在讀者能夠很容易理解作者講述的內容。為保證所寫作文清晰明瞭，寫作時有兩點一定要加以注意：
一是越確切具體越好。在這一方面，作者首先應明確瞭解自己所要傳達的`信息、讀者的範圍及特點，然後再選擇相關信息，採用某種文體格式傳遞給讀者。也就是説，寫作必須要以特定讀者為對象，以讓讀者能夠明確接受作者所傳遞的信息為宗旨。儘量以客觀陳述為主，少主觀臆測推斷;儘量明確無誤表達，少模稜兩可評論，這是使作文清晰確切的寫作準則。
二是組織結構富有邏輯性。作文結構富有邏輯性會讓讀者很輕鬆地讀懂作者要表達的思想內容。作文的這種邏輯性可以通過採用從一般到具體、從“全景”到細節、從問題的定義到分析再到提出解決方案等多種方式來體現。
準確
要使作文語義表達準確，首先要儘量不要在學術作文中出現“大概、也許”之類模稜兩可的詞語，避免出現容易讓人困惑和誤解的詞語和表達法;其次，要儘量避免使用那些有多種含義的詞語和表達法。例如：Singapore is a fine country.這句話中的fine一詞有多種含義，如“好的、細小的、罰款”等。日常生活中這樣使用沒有問題，但在寫作時一定要避免使用這種容易產生歧義的多義詞。
直截了當、切中要點是保證作文簡潔的最好寫作形式。與中文寫作相比，英文寫作非常強調直奔主題、簡單明快的寫作風格。例如，在寫作一個段落時，常常將概括段落主要內容的主題句(topic sentence)作為段落的首句，以便讓讀者迅速明確本段要講述的內容。另外，寫作時儘量將每個句子寫得簡短一些，少用或不用宂長的複合句。切記：短小精練的句子表達的意思才強而有力。
