VII.TranslationfromEnglishintoChinese.(本大题共15分)
计划是我们生活中一项非常重要的活动。它能使人愉快,甚至令人兴奋,但也会让人十分头疼。工作越重要,所需的计划就要越仔细。按时上班或上学是几乎根本不需要计划的工作,它只不过是日常事务。而长达一个月的国外旅游度假,或更甚之,结婚娶亲,就完全是两码事了。如果假期中还要举行婚礼,接待50位来宾,举办招待会,去意大利度蜜月,再回到新家,那就更需要计划周全,以确保成功。计划使我们能够保证成功,避免那些代价昂贵,而我们又难以承受的失败。对于整个人类、民族、家庭乃至个人来说,计划同样又是必不可少的。其规模可大可小,但重要性都一样。
