When making crucial decisions or important plans, it is always necessary to have a plan B. As the old saying goes, "Never put all your eggs in one basket." Having a second choice is essential to reducing the loss.
It is easy to understand that, for any plan that involves investments beforehand, one should prepare for the worst situation no matter how well it appears currently. When the profits are higher, people are also taking greater risks. For example, as the real-estate market is highly profitable nowadays, many people invest all their money into new houses and some even raise a mortgage. The possible result is that once the market cools down and the house prices go on a decrease, the investors are more likely to lose the profits as well as the capital. Admittedly, putting all the eggs in one basket maximizes the possible gaining. However, in unfavorable conditions, it also maximizes the loss.
In conclusion, it is unwise to put all your hopes into one possible solution. People should all learn the importance of avoiding risks with a plan B.
【點(diǎn)評(píng)】
題解:“把所有雞蛋放在一個(gè)籃子里是不明智的。”
本題難度中上,討論風(fēng)險(xiǎn)與機(jī)會(huì)的關(guān)系,以及減少風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的方法,較抽象。
文章可采取三段式。首段簡單闡述話題含義。主體部分重點(diǎn)論述“把所有雞蛋放在一個(gè)籃子里”可能帶來的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。由于話題較抽象,此處可用具體的事例論述,證明在有一定風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的情況下,人們不應(yīng)該將所有的希望都集中在同一個(gè)解決方案中,而是應(yīng)該有備用方案,以減少風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。結(jié)論部分重述主題。
