2015年12月大学英语四级考试真题答案（卷一）

[“活到老，学到老”参考范文]

　　As an old saying goes， “ Learning is a daily experience and a lifetime mission”. Apparently， the meaning of this saying is that if we truly desire to learn something， we are supposed to devote our life to it.

　　There are several reasons accounting for this viewpoint. Firstly， learning itself is an actually complicated and painful matter， and as a result， it is advisable for us to commit much more time even our whole life to it. Additionally， it is exceedingly obvious that we are easy to forget what we learned， and accordingly， the significance of lifetime learning cannot be ignored. For example， memorizing vocabulary is commonly the first step of preparing for an English test.

　　To sum up， lifelong learning lays a solid foundation to the development of ourselves， and only when we realize the significance of lifetime learning can we understand the essence of learning.
