Where does the phrase "there is no such thing as a free lunch" come from?
Hundreds of years ago, a wise old king summoned all wise officials and gave them a task to compile a book of wisdom for future generations. Clever courtiers worked for a long time and finally finished a twelve-volume masterpiece. After reading it, the king thought the book was too thick and asked his courtiers to condense it. After several cuts, a book was finished, but the king still thought it was very long. So the courtiers condensed a book into a chapter, then condensed a chapter into a page, then condensed a page into a paragraph, and finally condensed it into a sentence. When the king read this sentence, he was very satisfied and said, "This is really the crystallization of wisdom through the ages. Once people know this truth, most of the problems we are worried about can be solved. " This sentence is: "There is no such thing as a free lunch."

Writing skills

The composition of this topic is mainly aphorisms (in the form of judgment sentences). Its conception direction is very clear, and the average student can understand the meaning of this motto.

"Lunch" here refers to some of people's daily needs. "There is no such thing as a free lunch", which means that to meet your own needs, you must change it yourself. Even if parents, relatives and society can provide you with a rich material foundation, you still need to pay through your own efforts. By extension, a family, an enterprise, a unit, a place and even a country should have the spirit of self-reliance. Dependence and extravagance are futile and there is no way out.

In addition, we should pay attention to divergent thinking, such as connecting the reality of social life with our own experiences and feelings, and thinking about what is behind "freedom"? Why is there no free lunch? What kind of lunch do we need? What lessons does "free" bring us? Only by such multi-angle thinking and multi-level analysis can we see the problem deeply and thoroughly and write a profound article.

Example 2

Success requires paying.

Liu Yunyun

A beggar begged everywhere, hoping to get "free" food, but eventually starved to death in the street. The beggar came to God and complained angrily, "This world is so unfair!" " "God said calmly and slowly," There is no free lunch in the world. Any success requires perseverance, diligence and tenacious efforts. "

The beggar is still indignant. God waved his cane and flashed, and the pictures floated one after another. ...

Figure 1: Beethoven, who is deaf in both ears, is sitting in front of the piano, his dexterous fingers beating rapidly between the black and white keyboards, and the strong sound fills the room, but he can't hear it. His world is full of "dead silence" He was fidgeting and miserable, but he still said to himself, "I want to hold my own destiny!" " "The symphony Destiny was born. ...

God smiled: "The amazing tenacity and unyielding of' Holding the Throat of Destiny' is a single written by Beethoven for his own success. There is no such thing as a free lunch."

Figure 2: Madame Curie is busy quietly in the laboratory. The sun was shining and her clothes were soaked with sweat. She still kept her eyes fixed on the "test tube" and frowned. One moment she tried to write and record the experimental results, the other moment she tried to think hard and looked serious. She was completely immersed in the experiment and forgot to eat, rest and time. ...

God appeared again: "Radium was not my gift to Madame Curie, but she bought it with diligence and concentration. There is no free lunch in the world, and she succeeded with diligence. "

Figure 3: My head is drooping, my saliva can't help flowing downwards, and two fingers are tapping the keyboard. Besides, I'm paralyzed and can't move. The only comforting thing is a "peaceful" and "thoughtful" smile. He is Hawking. When fate almost took away his physical life, he opened the door of the tidal universe with tenacity and thought, crossed the boundaries of time, surpassed the thinking of ordinary people, and gained a brief history of time.

God appeared again: "Hawking's tenacity, constant gratitude for life and broad-minded and peaceful heart are his greatest success chips." Remember: there is no such thing as a free lunch. "Say that finish, God picked up his walking stick and disappeared in layers of smoke.

Beggars are no longer angry. He said regretfully, "If I have another chance, I will try my best to live and work hard. There is no free lunch in the world, and success needs to be paid! "

short review

The same topic, but the author of this article can give full play to his imagination and create a "scene of beggars complaining to God". Through three pictures, Beethoven, Madame Curie and Hawking can show their views respectively-amazing tenacity and unyielding are Beethoven's success bills, diligence and concentration are Madame Curie's success bills, and a grateful, open-minded and peaceful life heart is Hawking's success bills. Thus, the theme of "there is no such thing as a free lunch" is highlighted from another angle, and the same effect is achieved.

Beethoven, Madame Curie and Hawking are household names and have great influence on the world. Their appearance is naturally convincing. The selection of materials is typical, unique and profound.
