问题     In China it is a traditional virtue to help people who are in need, and it is a reflection of noble humanity to sacrifice one’s own life to rescue someone else.

YES
In traditional Chinese context, helping people in need is a highly valued virtue and also a noble spirit. In the historical record, there are numerous stories telling how brave people sacrifice their lives to save others. Young people today, being the future of our nation, should carry on the valuable spiritual heritage.
In essence, the behavior of saving others in danger shows people’s social morality. Maybe now we are not strong enough to protect others from danger, but what matters is the bravery and social responsibility shown by us. If we educate children not to save others in danger simply because they may get hurt, then we can imagine what kind of moral value they will uphold when they grow up.
NO
Every life is precious. Although it is a noble virtue to save others in danger, it is also unwise to save others when we are not even capable of protecting ourselves. It is not worthy of risking one’s own life to save others. In modern society, policemen and some other professional experts can handle the dangerous situation better than ordinary people. Rather than risking one’s own life, one should resort to the professionals first.
In real life, things sometimes do not turn out well when bold people put their lives in a dangerous place in order to save others. In a degree, they may not get the appreciation from the saved one, let alone the compensation.

答案                 Should People Be Saved at the Cost of Others’ Lives?
    In recent years, the news about saving others’ lives at the cost of one’s own can be frequently read on the newspaper. The whole society considers those people who bravely stand out to save others as heroes and role models. Many people, therefore, encourage this kind of conduct because it is consistent with the traditional Chinese virtue and can enhance the overall social morality. However, others raise the question of whether it is worth sacrificing one’s own life in order to save others because all lives are equal.
    In my opinion, we should respect the traditional virtue of helping others and self-sacrifice, but it is equally important for us to resort to wiser and more suitable ways to solve the problem when danger occurs. It is known to all that every life is equally precious and should be respected. Though helping others who are in danger is the responsibility of a qualified citizen, helping others when one does not possess the ability to get others out of danger is imprudent. So, it is unwise to take action when we are not capable enough to help others. A more advisable way is to ask for help from the professional people, such as the policemen.
    In conclusion, we should bear in mind that every life is precious. Bravery alone is not enough: what is more important is wisdom and courage. Hero is someone who is capable of finding a proper and safe way to save other people at the lowest cost.
