3、 以你的儿子学习不好为例

　　3. 以你的儿子学习不好为例， 论证成语“You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.”。

　　内容要点

　　你的儿子虽然聪明但是学习不好； 你为儿子请家教， 送他到私立学校， 给他买书， 买词典， 甚至买电脑， 但都无济于事； 这就证明了成语的含义： 你可以给人很多成功的机会， 但是你不能使他成功。(100词左右)

　　范文

　　My son is very bright. He has a high intelligence, but he doesn’t do well in school. I have paid a lot of money for private teachers to help him. I have sent him to private schools because I thought that the education was better than it was in the public school. I have bought him books and dictionaries to help him with his work. I even bought him an expensive computer. Still he does not do well in school. I have given him all the opportunities, but I cannot make him succeed.

　　This proves that the meaning of the saying “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.” is that you can give someone all the opportunities for success, but you can’t make the person successful.
