答案 Should We Show Kindness to Others? The modern society is full of competition. Everyone tries his utmost to survive in the fierce competition. Some believe in the old saying that "Everyone for himself and the devil take the hindmost." So they claim that it is unnecessary to show kindness to others. As for me, I strongly believe that we should show kindness to others. First of all, kindness helps to nourish the seed of hope in each soul we encounter. We all know that a small kindness can make our journeys lighter and more enjoyable. Even bringing an instance of kindness to mind can put a smile on your face days or weeks later or perhaps even inspire you to share kindness with another. Though it may seem simple to the point of insignificance, many cultures throughout the world and history have recognized kindness as a powerful virtue. It may be the simplest way to experience and share all the grandest ideals of humanity. We can make the choice to act from the best place within ourselves at any time, while simultaneously recognizing the highest potential in another with the smallest of acts. Furthermore, in a way, kindness acts as the oil that makes the engine of our world move more smoothly and with less friction. Without kindness, we may still get where we are going, but if with kindness the ride is more pleasant, and those around us can share in the ideal world. We are all fortunate that kindness is limitless in its supply and available to everyone. When we act in ways that confirm our ideals, we make the ideal our reality. Then, instead of affirming the experience of struggle and competition, we can shift our experience to the reality of ease and pleasurable camaraderie with the fellow citizens of the world. Most importantly, kindness has the power to create a universe of love. The smallest gesture can bring a smile to light the shadow of an unpleasant situation or remove tension from a difficult task, but its effects can echo and extend far be yond the moment. So never estimate the power of a small kindness. It can awaken love in our hearts. The seeds of love will spread quickly from one person to another, and then we will reap a world full of love. In conclusion, kindness can help to nourish the seed of hope in each soul, make our society move more smoothly and create universe of love. Given its benefits to the modern society, it is reasonable to say that kindness lays a solid foundation for the progress of human society.
解析     本文开篇由当今激烈的社会竞争给人们的思想带来巨大冲击谈起。许多人信奉这样的生活信条“Everyone for himself and the devil take the hindmost.”(人不为己，天诛地灭。)首段末句点明主题：我们应该向他人表示友爱。
    接下来，作者分别从三个方面进行论述，使用了First of all, Furthermore, Most importantly这些标志词使论述层次分明。首先，友爱有助于滋养人们心中希望的种子。其次，友爱可以起到润滑剂的作用，减少人们之间的摩擦，使社会和谐发展。Without kindness... with kindness...形成鲜明的对照。最后作者指出给予友爱的人一定会得到别人友爱的回报，而使整个社会充满爱心。then，so等标志词的使用使论述层次分明。
    文章最后一段总结全文，重申主题，对前文提到的三点原因进行简要概括，首尾呼应。全文一气呵成，有理有据，用词丰富，句式多变。长句的使用体现了作者深厚的语言功底。
