答案     My Views on Making Promises
    A promise is a commitment by someone to do or not to do something. To keep a promise is to uphold the integrity , and to break the promise is the same as telling lies. But unfortunately, more and more people fail to keep their promises nowadays.
    People now give kinds of promises easily, but their promises are quite fragile. We can see some doctors break Hippocratic Oath by considering interest as the priority. There are also government officials who forget their promise of serving the people. In my view, the most disappointing example is the cheating in universities. Many college students signed the undertaking of the integrity test before taking the examination, but they immediately forget their promise when they are cheating, so it is not difficult to assume that these students would not keep their promise of academic honesty in their paper writing.
    Promise does not have the force of law, but it doesn’t mean promise is not important. In my eyes, keeping promise matters more than obeying the laws, because the ability to keep words is the foundational part of the morality, which is easy to lose but hard to regain. Many Chinese students find that it is becoming difficult for them to apply for the scholarship abroad, because their poor academic honesty ruined their opportunity.
    To sum up, promise is a simple and trivial thing, but the failure to keep it would be a substantial matter, so we should always keep in mind the old saying—be slow to promise and quick to perform.

解析     本题是一个自由发挥型题目。要求就誓言进行阐述,发表自己的看法。如今誓言和承诺变得越来越普遍,但兑现这些誓言和承诺却变得越来越难。对此可以从以下几方面着手,对誓言问题进行探讨:
    思路1:誓言的重要性。
    着重阐述誓言的意义,誓言是诚信的重要组成部分,信守誓言就是坚守诚信,做出承诺却不能履行誓言和说谎没有两样。
    思路2:违背誓言的危害。
    违背誓言的现象有医生违背希波克拉底誓言,官员违背入党誓言,夫妻背叛结婚誓言,学者违背诚信誓言,等等。违背誓言对个人而言是良心和道德的泯灭,对集体和国家而言则意味着更可怕的后果,还有整个社会诚信的缺失。
    思路3:如何遵守誓言。
    目前,很多人发出誓言后并没有去遵守,那么,我们应该如何遵守誓言?
    范文主要按照思路2和思路3进行写作,其中重点分析承诺对学生的重要意义,并提出相关的建议。
