To different people, the word "ideal" may mean different things. To some, it may mean success and fame in their career; to others, a peaceful life. Very often, we have ideals for the "self" and no ideal for society, not to mention the people of the world. Is it a sound attitude towards life?
In my opinion, a youth should have ideals. But it is more important that these ideals are not merely centred on the "self". They should be also the ideals of the majority of people. Then you would get strength and confidence towards life.
The setting up of an ideal does not merely mean to go without doing anything. Real and concrete action should be taken. For us students, the most important thing to do is to study both inside and outside school. We study not to become bookworms but to be well-equipped and prepared for the pursuit of our ideals.
Sometimes, in striving toward our ideals, we may encounter certain difficulties and failures. But we should not give up or lose hope, for as long as we try, there is always a way out. We will not lose heart if our ideals are the wish of the many!
“理想”一词对于不同的人可能有着不同的含义。在一些人看来，它可能意味着事业上的成功和名声，而在另一些人看来，它可能意味着平静的生活。一般情况下，我们有为“自我”的理想，却没有为社会的理想，至于为全人类的理想就更不用提了。这是一种健康的人生态度吗？
我认为年轻人应该有理想。然而更为重要的是，这些理想不能仅仅以“自我”为中心，而应以大多数人的理想为中心。这样，你才能得到力量并对生活充满信心。
确立一个理想不能夸夸其谈，而应该采取真正的、具体的行动。对于我们学生来说，最重要的事情不仅是在校内学习，还要在校外学习。我们学习的目的不是为了学成书呆子，而是为了武装自己，为了做好准备去追求我们的理想。
