The composition requires you to choose your own perspective based on this famous saying, so it is crucial to accurately understand the meaning of the famous saying. "Walking close to the ground" means moving forward with your feet firmly on the ground and doing things in a real way; "not dancing in the clouds" means not being too ambitious, vain or daydreaming. The composition can follow the original intention and agree with the views of the famous saying; it can also reflect the pipa and come up with something new - life should have lofty pursuits and be full of fantasy.

◎Without ideals in your heart, life will be boring. ([English] Eliot's "Daniel Deronda")

◎You should fight for your ideals and don't believe in those absurd dreams. ([Russian] Pushkin)
◎If human activities are not inspired by ideals, they will become empty and insignificant. ([Russian] Chernyshevsky)
◎A young man must have lofty aspirations and be strict with himself.

("The Complete Works of Mr. Yang Yuan·Beginner's Notes (Part 1)" by Zhang Luxiang of the Qing Dynasty)
◎To achieve several things in the world, it is impossible to do without an honest attitude. (Mao Zedong's "Rectifying the Party's Style")
◎In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a young man named Chen Fan. He made the house dirty and messy but did not know how to clean it. His father's friend Xue Qin criticized him, but he said: "A man should sweep the world and make one house safe?" Xue Qin immediately asked: "If you don't sweep one house, how can you sweep the world?"
◎ When he was young, Sima Qian was determined to write a history book that could be "hidden in famous mountains and passed on to future generations." After going through hardships and writing vigorously, it took 18 years to finally write "Historical Records" of more than 500,000 words. This great work has always been highly praised. Lu Xun praised it as "the historian's swan song, a rhymeless Li Sao".
◎Once, a French newspaper held a prize-winning quiz, including a question: If the Louvre, the largest museum in France, caught fire and only one painting was allowed to be rescued, which one would you save?

His reason was: the best goal for success is not the most valuable one, but the most likely to be achieved.
◎When Darwin was 9 years old, he said to his father: I think there must be many mysteries that have not been discovered in the world. In the future, I will travel around the world and conduct field investigations.

Live a down-to-earth and calm life
Dancing in the clouds is certainly desirable, but how can all living beings in the world do it? It's better to walk on the ground with your feet firmly on the ground. Why should ordinary people like me be so ambitious? It is better to seize the present and live a down-to-earth life.
The goal depends on the strength.
Ambitious life goals can indeed inspire people to strive for progress, but if this is an unrealistic destination that can never be reached, it will only make people fail repeatedly on the journey. Be realistic and determine a suitable goal based on your actual situation so that you can taste the joy of success after working hard without losing confidence in life.
Fight hard and act according to physical strength.
The journey of life is long, and it requires us to have a strong body to go through decades of time, to cut through the waves, and to move forward. Sometimes when facing rough waves, before you bravely challenge, please think calmly: Can I overcome it? If you are somewhat sure, you should really give it a try; if you have no confidence at all or know that you are not good enough, you might as well retreat bravely. When "everyone is a swordsman and I am a fish and meat", it is better to escape cleverly like Liu Bei and seek greater development in the future. "Keep the green hills alive, and don't worry about running out of firewood." We must act according to our ability, rather than acting on temporary courage, lest we end up with a bloody head.
Be happy to accept the results.
Many times, I always hear people around me complain: "I can do it if..." Unfortunately, God will not let time go back. When facing success or failure, we must use a peaceful mind. Accept it; assuming what you want will only increase regret. Accept the reality calmly, sum up experience and draw lessons from it, never forget the past, and learn from the future, so that you can learn from the mistakes and gain wisdom. When faced with a glass of water that is half full, instead of lamenting that "the glass is only half full", it is better to be happy that "there is still half a glass."
The philosopher Wittgenstein said: "I walk close to the ground, not dance on the clouds." Becoming the richest man in the world, winning the Nobel Prize, or being remembered in history for eternity is beyond my reach. For me, I have real goals, work hard and make progress as much as possible, watch the flowers bloom and fall indifferently, keep my feet on the ground, and live calmly.
At the beginning of the brief review, a famous quote is used to draw out the point of view, which is clear-cut. At the end, quote a famous quote to deepen the main idea. "Goals are determined by strength." "Strive hard and act according to physical strength." "Results must be accepted happily." 3 sub-points, the sentences are organized, and each is an independent paragraph, eye-catching; each leads to an argument, the structure is well-proportioned, and the reasoning is relatively sufficient.
Keep your feet on the ground and run into the distance
We are about to leave high school and enter university. We are looking forward to the future university life with ideals and ambitions. But before we enter a new milestone in life, we still have to undergo a major test in life - the college entrance examination. We have to work hard and be proactive, because only by being down-to-earth can we reach our goals.
We all have our own ideals, but the process of realizing our ideals is full of hardships.
The realization of ideals depends on down-to-earth efforts. The Chinese people's dream of flying has lasted for thousands of years, and now it has finally come true. That moment of glory is the result of the hard work of countless astronauts. Without hard work in ordinary days and nights, how can we turn our beautiful dreams into reality? A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step; if you have a lofty goal and do not move forward, then, as the poet said: "I have walked many roads in my dream, but I am still in bed when I wake up."
Realization of ideals It requires persistent hard work. Success cannot be achieved overnight. The road to success is long and arduous. Three minutes of enthusiasm cannot knock on the door to success. We cannot stop at it but persevere. During the Spring and Autumn Period, King Gou Jian of Yue swore revenge and avenged his humiliation. He endured the humiliation and recuperated for three years, restored the country's strength in three years, and unified the south of the Yangtze River in three years. After ten years of arduous and persistent efforts, he finally created the miracle of "three thousand Yue Jia can swallow Wu".
The realization of ideals requires a peaceful and far-reaching state of mind. In the vast world, there are many temptations. "If you are not indifferent, you will not be able to make your ambition clear, and if you are not quiet, you will not be able to achieve it." Fan Wenlan relied on the spirit of "sit on the bench for ten years", endured loneliness, devoted himself to his studies, and became a famous historian.
Zhuge Liang worked hard in Nanyang and practiced with great concentration, and won Liu Bei to visit the thatched cottage three times. The two of them decided the world's plans, and displayed their talents to the fullest.
Life cannot be without lofty ideals, which are the driving force for social progress. To turn lofty ideals into reality requires down-to-earth efforts, perseverance and a peaceful and far-reaching mind.
Only by being down-to-earth can you run into the distance!
The beginning of the brief review combines one's own reality and leads to the central argument "Only by being down-to-earth can we run towards the goal", which embodies the spirit of "the article is written in conjunction with the times". Then the argument was launched from three aspects - "The realization of ideals requires down-to-earth efforts"; "The realization of ideals requires persistent hard work"; "The realization of ideals requires a peaceful and far-reaching state of mind." The third sub-theme is also closely related to the composition material and the central argument. A peaceful and far-reaching state of mind means not being vain or anxious. Only with a peaceful and far-reaching state of mind can we be down-to-earth. At the end, the whole text is summarized and the title is used to show the purpose, the structure is rounded and the thinking is clear.
