11、examples to illustrate your point and then explain how people can develop curiosity. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.On the Importance of CuriosityThe saying that “Not to know is bad; not to wish to know is worse” best illustrates the importance of curiosity, a desire

12、to know, a hunger to explore and a delight to discover. Without curiosity, human beings would never reach the civilization today.Curiosity motivates us to uncover the truth about nature and life. It takes a curious mind to look beneath the surface and discover new worlds and possibilities. Were it n

13、ot for curiosity, Newton would never have developed the law of gravitation, nor would the continents of America or Australia be discovered. Being curious allows us to engage in activities that will stretch the boundaries of our mind and naturally broaden our horizons.Fortunately, curiosity is a habi

With practice, we are sure to transform everyday tasks into enjoyable experiences and lay the ground for future discoveries and opportunities.(譯文) 關(guān)于好奇心的重要性引言“無知是悲哀的，

15、無意求知更可悲”很好地闡述了好奇心的重要性。好奇心是一種求知的欲望、一種探索的渴求以及一種發(fā)現(xiàn)的喜悅。如果沒有好奇心，人類絕不可能達(dá)到今天的文明水平。好奇心激勵(lì)我們揭開關(guān)于自然和人生的真理，需要一顆好奇的大腦才能透過表象發(fā)現(xiàn)新的世界和新的可能。如果不是好奇心，牛頓絕不可能推出萬有引力定律，美洲和澳洲大陸也不可能被發(fā)現(xiàn)。好奇心使我們積極參與能夠擴(kuò)展我們大腦界限的活動，自然也就擴(kuò)展了我們的視野。幸運(yùn)的是，好奇心是一種可以培養(yǎng)和養(yǎng)成的習(xí)慣。具體來說，我們需要帶著孩子般愛提問的習(xí)慣來接觸這個(gè)世界。加以練習(xí)，我們一定能將日常的任務(wù)變成有趣的經(jīng)歷，為未來的發(fā)現(xiàn)和機(jī)遇打下基礎(chǔ)。Topic 4Directio

Some people argue that priority should be given to studying theories, while others believe that practice is the best way of learning.On the one hand, previous experience and authoritative views in textbooks are regarded as reliable, thorough a
