题目：

If a goal is worthy, then any means taken to attain it are justifiable.

只要值得，不择手段达到目的是合理的。

正文：

The speaker claim that if a goal if worthwhile, then any means taken to

achieve this goal is justifiable. Although the assertion makes sense when we

consider the underlying of this implication is that whatever the conditions, the

natures of the endings deserve our effort wholehearted. But if we examine the

broad meaning that this claim carries, we find this threshold statement suffer

deficiencies from many aspects of consideration.

First let define the worthiness of a goal. How worthwhile and valuable a

goal is lies not only in the subjective meditation and evaluation of an

individual, we must consider the interactive influence exerted by this goal on

others. For example, a country may consider the goal of achieving economic

success and well being of its citizens to be worthwhile, but if we know they

exploit cheap labor forces in third-world country,utilize scarce natural

resources that being exported from poor countries, or dump low-cost goods in

these countries, our morals reveal us the dark side of the goal and make it less

worthwhile than it seems to be to its home people. On a personal level, a

person’s food might be the others’ poison, so did the goal. Consider the

ambition of Napoleon, his ambitious goal is to conquer the whole European Continent,

which considered by himself and many of his follows to be the most glorious plan

they have ever made. But by resorting to wars, killings, and blood shedding,

their sweet dream turn out to be the nightmare of people habituating in this

continent. In a word, since no goal is set from a pure disinterested, impartial

perspective, it is necessary to bear the interwoven relationship in mind before

targeting at a certain goal. Even if a goal is worthwhile agreed by majority of

people, we should consider cost-and-benefit side of things in an effort to

obtaining an nonbiased, all-around point of view. Most people today agree that

the exploration of outer space is a worthy goal considering the valuable

research materials we would get from for our physics and medial experiment and

weather forecast. What is more, due to the limit longevity of earth and the ever

increasing of populations, we see high calls to find another habitat for our

future generations. Even if all the advantages and benefits involved justify the

worthiness of this goal, not all means taken would be considered as sensible and

judicial. Since most pressing social problem such as AIDS prevention,

poverty,environmental problems still in need of immediate attention and

observation, we need to allocate most of our resources to tackle these problems.

As a result, even if one way of achieving the breakthrough in out space

exploration would be to devote all research staff and available resource to this

project, we have to struggle a balance between the worthiness of a goal and the

proper way to obtain this goal.

The above statement is welcomed and readily embraced by the new trend of

practicality since in a society where personal achievement is highly valued, we

look more to ending than means. That is to say, people tend to neglect and

forgive their own wrongdoings or others’ wrongdoings in a sense that their goals

are goodwill–intending and worthwhile. For one thing, for a personal, a society,

or even a nation,even they consider things from a totally isolated or functional

perspective, no matter how great achievement they obtain, they are selfish

losers with nothing to be accomplished from the physiological point of view. In

the second place, we observe too many cases where good intention result in total

chaos derive not from the dirty tricks they construe but out of the improper

means they take. Since the founding of People’s Republic of China, under the leadership of Chairman Mao, China has

undergone a reform in the area of economy, which is to implement planned

economy. Mao’s intention is good, and his goal is to realize communalisms in

this new country to short its economic gap with the western country in the

shortest as possible. But without considering the properness of this means from

the economic and social point of view, he threw china into years of economic

regression and stillness. Ideas went contrary to our wills and intentions

occasionally and thus make the consideration and full analyzes of the means to

obtaining goals even pressing.

To sum up, I am against the speaker’s assertion since he neglects one

important aspect of how to evaluate goals. To devote to a worth goal is

justifiable and the effort instilled in this process deserve our accolade since

it is always this power that push the society forward. But by neglecting the

means of how to obtain these goals, we put ourselves in an embarrassing place of

functionalists and opportunists. As a result, it is highly resulted to look from

different perspectives to figure our where the true value of a goal lies and how

to achieve it.
