中考英語作文模板：the development of personality
　　Is it nature or nurture that plays a major role in the development of personality? What's your opinion?

　　Nowhere in the world has the issue of children's education been so much debated as in our society. Nowadays, many parents let their children attend all kinds of courses that will help children to get a better future; therefore, some people think that the postnatal nurture is more important than the congenital factors for personal growth and progress. The above point is certainly true; this essay will outline three reasons.

　　The main reason is that success of a child would not be separated from right teaching and personal effort. Currently, lots of famous scientists and politicians gain huge success in the world, as they are long-term to hard work. Moreover, the main reason why plenty of developing countries drop behind is their poor education.

　　Another reason is that if people do not work hard but only depend on their high intellect, they will be far from successful. For instance, the little Bronte was quite clever during his childhood; he was particularly adept at writing. But he was so satisfied with his superior intellect that he did not study carefully. Finally, he became an idle person. However, his sisters became famous authors as a result of their hard study. They are Charlotte Bronte and Emily Bronte. Charlotte wrote “Jane Eyre “, “Wuthering Heights” was written by Emily.

　　Last but not the least reason is the advantages of natural factors that are more and more similar. Plenty of advanced technological products are invented and widely used. They can supply people's gaps. In the past, the difference of mathematical ability was remarkable. With the invention of the calculator, people can hardly find out the difference.

　　In conclusion, scientific and proper teaching is the most significant factor for personal growth and development. If people are satisfied with their advantages, they will become the biggest failures.
