Question

閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。
A young ensign (海軍少尉) was given the opportunity to prepare his ship to “set sail”. Soon the ship was driven slowly out of the channel. The ensign’s efficiency was remarkable. In fact, the talk was that he had set a new record for getting the ship underway. Later he was handed a radio message from the captain.
“My personal congratulations on completing the sail with amazing speed,” it read, “but next time wait until your captain goes aboard before getting underway!”
What good is a ship without the captain? The ensign did all the right things, but he never did the most important thing!
It is a matter of priorities (優(yōu)先). You may accomplish a great deal every day. But are you accomplishing the truly important things? Have you put first things first?
In work and study, in the areas of mental, physical and spiritual health, are you truly doing the important things?
Today, will you put first things first? And how about tomorrow? And the next day? If so, you will one day discover that you are building a life that counts.

Answer 1

Putting first things first is a matter of priorities, which was misapprehended by an ensign who prepared the sailing with remarkable efficiency but left behind the most important thing of having a captain.
Whether people put first things first exerts great influence on the process of pushing things forward and even decides the future development. Things invariably go of their own accord. If the order is misplaced, the whole process is blocked and ceases to be an abstract concept. Therefore, we can hardly imagine how we achieve future development with things upside down, with the cart before the horse.
My experience vividly illustrates the significance of putting first things first. In the examination for high school, I should have got tens of more marks if I had given priority to the questions I was familiar with. I can not explain why I was so stubborn at that time and was quite illogical when dealing with an important examination, which directly resulted in many questions unfinished, and of course resulted in my failure to enter a key high school.
I always keep this lesson in mind and promise myself to put first things first this time for the coming NMET examination.
