[範文]
沒有和平,就沒有發展(no peace, no development)
in the modern world, peace and development have become two major themes. but some areas in the world are still involved in wars. take the ongoing lraqi war for example. the war is hurting people's welfare. so people all over the world pay a lot of attention to these issues.
people usually compare wars to disasters. they are right because wars often bring about not only great harm to people but also a lot of waste of wealth. during wartime, people's lives become so miserable that they don't have enough food to eat and no shelter to live in. and in destroyed cities, the residents find themselves homeless all of a sudden, in addition, if a country wants to win a war, it has to spend a lot of money on both arms and armed forces. then there is very little money left to develop its economy. even if the country wins the war, it is still difficult for it to recover from the damage of the war.
in a word, whether the world can develop steadily depends on whether the world is at peace. so peace and development are still hot topics in the world. i am sure that the majority of people who love peace will appeal for a world without war.
