收起Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below.
People use the word “wisdom” to mean many things. They describe someone as wise if that person is intelligent, well-informed, or capable of making good decisions. These descriptions, however, are not really useful in distinguishing wise people from unwise ones. Happiness is a better measure of wisdom: a wise person is a happy person. Even the most intelligent people should not be called wise if they are not happy.
Is it best to determine how wise people are by how happy they are?
Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

收起1. 题目翻译:
人们用“智慧”表示很多东西。人们说聪明、博学、做好决定的人智慧。然而这些因素在区分智慧和不智慧时用处并不太大。幸福才是衡量智慧的更好方式:智慧的人是幸福的。即使是最聪明的人,如果不幸福,也不能被叫做智慧。
题目:以是否幸福来确定人智慧与否是最好的方式吗?
2. 审题关键词:wise, happy
3. 论证分析-各段核心提纲:
正:Being happy show that one can strike a balance in his life, which is a good indicator of wisdom.
反:Happy people sometimes are lazy and easy to become satisfied with their lives, who should not be counted as wise people.
补:Happiness alone cannot measure wisdom. It is lopsided.
