答案    Is Change Always Good?
   As George Bernard Shaw put it, " Progress is impossible without change; and those who cannot change their minds, cannot change anything. " It is undeniable that change, the only absolute in the world, advances human development, but history shows that change, even as measured by progress, always has its cost.
   When change serves evil, the result hurts. A typical case in point is Germany in the 1930s. The Germans were suffering after World War I from a terrible economy and massive inflation. Then Hitler took power and began to revive the economy of Germany. After several years Germany became the most powerful in Europe, but Germany’s aggressive change enabled Hitler to finance his military power and then sparked World War II , a catastrophe that killed tens of millions of people all over the world. Likewise, China has seen remarkable changes over the past three decades. The standard of living has gone up dramatically, but those changes also have negative aspects. As wealth gaps widen, social problems like crime and poverty become increasingly pronounced. The damage done to the environment by factories and ever-changing human activities will affect the lives of generations to come.
   Although change may come with unexpectedly bad consequences, I agree with what Irene Dunlap, one of the world’s best-selling writers said, "Change is the only thing you can depend on. You can hold onto the past and get left in the dust; or, you can choose to jump on the ride of life and live a new adventure with perseverance and an open mind. "

   结尾部分
