Task：In modern society, ambition is more and more important. How important is

ambition for being successful in life? Is it positive or negative?

Sample answer：

In this contemporary era which features high pressure and fierce

competitions, ambition is a powerful driving force on modern people’s way to

success. As the proverb goes that most people would succeed in small things if

they were not troubled with great ambitions.

It is believed that ambition is putting a ladder against sky. If Newton had

no ambition to figure out why apples fall down on the earth rather than flying

to the sky, gravity can never be discovered; If Salvador Dali had no ambition to

draw what is in his mind or dreams no matter how distorted it is, surrealism can

never be thought highly of; If the allied nations in World War Two had no

ambition to defeat the Nazism led by Hitler, massive slaughter would be recorded

in human history. It is ambition that enables individuals to equip with

self-motivation and self-discipline that are deemed as indispensable factors for

overcoming barriers as well as resisting temptation when devoting to work or

studies. Unfortunately, people who lose ambitions are hardly to pursue their

goals or make themselves come out on the top even if their inspiration spring up

every second.

Although a heavy ambition is often thought to be connected with the greed or

an addiction to power, it is not the case. Ambitious people have courage and

persistence to challenge tasks which cannot be completed by ordinary people;

have aspiration to break down the routine as well as to fight for what they

believe in. In a large scale, the civilization of mankind would not thrive

supposing that humans refuse to admit or achieve their ambitions.

In a word, ambition is one of the most crucial characteristics for human

beings. It gives us goals and pushes us to lead a life filled with satisfaction

and glory. However, it is worth mention that the realization of personal

ambition can never at the expense of violating others’ interest.
