Positive debate: Thank you, Madam President. Hello, debaters, teachers, judges and classmates! Our view is that prosperity is conducive to the cultivation of talents. Of course, we don't deny that adversity can also cultivate talents, but we think prosperity is more conducive to the cultivation of talents than adversity. Talents refer to those who are outstanding and have both ability and political integrity. What we mean by prosperity is to provide good conditions for the development of such talents. Comrade Deng Xiaoping, our chief designer, put forward the policy of reform and opening up, which provided smoother and superior conditions for the development of talents. In this great prosperity, China has a large number of talented people. This shows that prosperity gives talents more opportunities for performance and development, and prosperity is more conducive to the production of talents.
Excuse me, another debater, can you deny that there is unprecedented prosperity now compared with before liberation? Can you deny that there are many more talents now than before liberation? If we can't deny this, how can we deny our point of view?
Refute the other side's argument: first of all, thank the other side for admitting our point of view: adversity can also produce talents. What is adversity? We believe that adversity is the external resistance that people encounter in the process of becoming useful, including difficult and tragic situations. What you said before liberation was mainly a tragic situation, and you haven't touched on the difficult situation yet. If a person wants to become a talent, he must constantly overcome difficulties, which inevitably puts himself in a difficult position, so it is impossible to produce talents in prosperity, but only in adversity. Specifically, first, the history of mankind began when apes overcame adversity and walked out of the forest. They are the earliest talents. Second, adversity is everywhere, and there is bound to be resistance in progress. Only by overcoming all kinds of resistance can talents be produced; Third, it is human nature to take refuge easily. In prosperity, people tend to be complacent. Mencius said, "Born in sorrow, died in happiness". Only in adversity can people turn pressure into motivation and promote the success of their careers.
Two arguments: first of all, I want to ask another debater, is the difficulty adversity? You said that difficulties are adversity, but you should know that eating without food and dressing without covering your body are the most typical adversity! It seems that you are inclined to adversity, but you say that it is human nature to take refuge. How can this make sense? Our argument has repeatedly shown that adversity can produce talents, but prosperity is more conducive to producing talents, so prosperity produces talents, and adversity produces talents is the relationship between the mainstream and the tributary. According to statistics from all aspects, the probability of producing talents in adversity is far lower than that in prosperity. Today, Comrade Deng Xiaoping has created such a good prosperity for us, and talented people have come forth in large numbers. Isn't it easier to produce talents in prosperous times?
Counterparty argument: first of all, point out a blind spot of the other party. You've been ignoring people's subjective factors. Our understanding of adversity includes subjective and objective aspects. We believe that adversity is the collision of internal and external factors, and the collision produces resistance. For those who want to succeed, the higher they climb, the greater the difficulty. Since difficulties are inevitable in the process of success, adversity is inevitable. The process of a person's maturity is the process of experiencing adversity, and the process of a person's success is also the process of overcoming adversity. As "Caigen Tan" said: "In adversity, the whole body is needle stone grass, but not knowing it, but in the environment, but not knowing it."
Three arguments: I want to remind the other party that you still haven't solved the problem that "difficulty equals adversity" We just pointed out in the second debate that only survival problems, such as hunger, are typical adversity. How do you answer this question? You say that success is a collision between subjective and objective, but Marxist philosophy tells us that only matter determines consciousness, and there is no so-called collision when subjective consciousness and matter are juxtaposed. How do other debaters explain it? We still insist that prosperity produces more talents than adversity. According to the statistics of relevant newspapers, 60% of the talents in the world come from prosperity, while only 40% come from adversity. How does the other party explain this? Also, I want to ask another debater: Are apes also talents? (Laughter and applause)
Three arguments against the other side: I admire the other side's argument about the percentage of talents, but what is the "relevant" method of "related newspaper" Are you sure about the reliability of the data? Secondly, how can humans come without apes? It is not that we prefer adversity, but that adversity exists objectively. We should understand that there is no "Utopia" that is not contradictory and hard. The so-called Utopia and "Peach Blossom Garden" only exist in the books of thinkers and writers. Therefore, a real person is never afraid of adversity. American writer Emerson said: "A good wise man will not give up this opportunity to learn"; Beveridge, a professor of pathology in Britain, said: "People's best work is often done under unfavorable circumstances, and mental stress and even physical pain may become spiritual stimulants." .
PRESIDENT: Let's start a free debate.
Pro: Same question: Is difficulty equal to adversity? It has never been clear whether the adversity mentioned by the other debater is difficult or what.
Counterparty: We have already explained this issue. Why did the other debater turn a deaf ear? We say that adversity produces talents but prosperity does not produce talents, and talents come from adversity 100%. This is because the growth history of all talents is really a process of getting out of adversity and overcoming it. Ostrovsky was blind and paralyzed, but he wrote, "How is steel tempered?" Edison finally invented the electric light after thousands of failures. Cervantes was so poor that he wrote Tang. "Don Quixote" and "Dream of Red Mansions" written by Cao Xueqin after experiencing the adversity of family plagiarism ... all these examples show that adversity makes talents.
Professor: Just now we listed the data, 60% and 40%. It is an indisputable fact that prosperity is more conducive to the production of talents.
Counterparty: The opposing debater only writes data. Why not give some examples to illustrate the problem?
Pro: Since the other debater is so obsessed with giving examples, let me give an example. For example, some people give up when they encounter setbacks-according to the other side, setbacks are adversity-so what is their talent?
Opposing party: Now many countries are carrying out frustration education, isn't it just to better train talents?
…………
President: Next, we invite both sides to make concluding remarks.
Counterparty: I want to point out the other party's mistakes first. First, the other party made a logical mistake by inferring the conditions with the results; Second, the other party only has abstract conclusions, but even a concrete example can't be given; Third, the other party misunderstood our meaning and regarded talent as 100% from adversity. Let's summarize our views again. First, it is not just a cognitive problem that adversity produces talents, but an objective existence. At all times and all over the world, which outstanding talent did not stand out from all kinds of resistance and finally succeeded? If people in Sri Lanka want to take heaven as their great task, they must first suffer their minds, their bones and muscles, starve their bodies and empty their bodies, and do whatever it takes to get what they can't-Mencius pointed out the only way to become a useful person as early as two thousand years ago. Second, recognize that adversity makes talents, and you can face and overcome any difficulties and obstacles calmly. Third, only by recognizing adversity can we attach importance to the tempering of will quality, and there will be no more such situation as the 97 Sino-Japanese summer camp. Let us remember/kloc-the advice of Saadi, a Persian foreigner in the third century: "If you encounter difficulties, don't be anxious, because the fountain of life often flows out of darkness!"
Pro: I want to point out the other party's omission first: the other party has never answered our question, that is, whether the difficulty is adversity or not, and the ape is not a person, which shows that the talent is not enough. We have expressed our view that prosperity is more conducive to training talents. For example, the investment environment in China is much better than before, so investors come here, which is the prosperity created for us by the chief designer! Imagine if it is adversity, how will investors favor it? What the other party said about frustration education is true, but countries are also trying to run schools better and give students a chance to flourish. Otherwise, why run so many universities? This shows that setbacks are only the second, and prosperity is the fundamental.

President: Now I declare that the winner of tonight's Friendship Cup Debate is Hangzhou Law School, which was decided by the jury by a majority. (
The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the cold wind, from the green of pine and cypress, and from the precipitousness of cliffs.
Throughout the ages, many successful people have a sad memory behind them. There is a saying in China that "heroes have suffered more since ancient times". Mencius once said: "Heaven is going to be a great task for people, so people must first suffer their minds, their bones and muscles, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and then endure what they do, so that they can't do it." It can be seen that adversity can also produce talents.
Gou Jian, the King of Yue, tasted courage and finally defeated the State of Wu. Edison was depressed when he was young, but he also became a great inventor. Sima Qian was imprisoned by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but it was in this situation that he created China's first biography-Historical Records.
Of course, I'm not saying that adversity is a necessary condition for success. It takes ambition, courage and perseverance to cultivate talents in adversity. Imagine if Gou Jian was devastated after the defeat and "Wujiang committed suicide", could he actively prepare for the war and defeat Wu? This is a belief and ambition that supports him. Edison experienced numerous failures in the process of invention. If he is discouraged and gives up the experiment, can he achieve anything? This requires the courage to stand up again in the face of failure. Sima Qian's imprisonment was a great blow to his dignity and family. If he gives up on himself, can he finish the historical masterpiece "Historical Records"? This is his tenacious perseverance that drives him.
KFC fast food is very popular among young people, but few people know the story of KFC. KFC worked as a clerk, postman and cook. He has experienced many hardships in his life, and unemployment is common, but he never gave up any chance to achieve his career. When he was in his fifties and sixties, he opened a KFC restaurant with a few hundred dollars, and his business was booming. Finally, there are KFC chain stores almost all over the world. KFC did not bow to adversity. On the contrary, he held his head high in adversity and achieved success in his career.
On the long road of life, we can't be smooth sailing. We will encounter many setbacks and be in adversity, but as long as we firmly believe that "since God has given talents, let them be used!" And bravely face adversity and overcome difficulties, we will definitely reach the other side of victory.
Let's keep in mind the spirit of willow: even if I am inserted backwards, I can become a talent.
Confucius, the representative of Confucianism, became famous, and people respected him as the spirit of all things. His father died when he was three years old, and he was often discriminated against by his people. At that time, there was neither papermaking nor printing, and all the works circulated depended on copying. If you want to keep other people's works, you must carve them on the bamboo piece word by word with a knife. Put the carved bamboo slips in order, and that is the book at that time. The Book of Changes was carved by Confucius, so he often reads it. Because of reading too many times, the strong cowhide rope broke several times. Confucius became a celebrity in such adversity.
Gou Jian defeated Wu soon after he ascended the throne. Two years later, Fu Cha, the king of Wu, breached Du Yue, and Gou Jian was forced to kneel and surrender. He went to Wu with Fu Cha, served the King of Wu, and was pardoned and returned to China. Since the defeat, Gou Jian has never forgotten Ji Ji's shame, endured humiliation and kept waiting for the opportunity, asking himself, "Have you forgotten Ji Ji's shame?" After "ten years of reunion, ten years of lessons", the Vietnamese army defeated Wu again, and Gou Jian became the last overlord in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Beethoven couldn't go to college because of poverty. At the age of seventeen, he suffered from typhoid fever and smallpox. At the age of 26, he was unfortunately deaf and his love was frustrated. In this case, Beethoven vowed to "take life by the throat". In the tenacious struggle against fate, in the career of music creation, the fire of his life grew stronger and stronger. Adversity did not frighten him, but became a magnetic field for him to gain great vitality.
We are familiar with Zhang Haidi, but we can't stand up and experience the happiness of ordinary people walking. What a blow to a person! However, facing the adversity of life, she faced it bravely, broke through many difficulties, embodied the value of life and created a brilliant life. In a sense, did adversity help her?
Edison, a great scientist, made many inventions in his life. But behind this glory, didn't he also survive from a rugged road? Repeated experiments, repeated failures, repeated sleepless nights, and repeated rejuvenation made him rush out of adversity, made his brilliant life, and left many great inventions for the world.
