　　The Best Preparation for Life and Career

　　With the development of our society， we face challenges more frequently. Then what can we do to deal with these challenges？

　　Some people believe that the best preparation for our life and career is learning to be competitive. Competition exits at every corner of society. Consciously or not， we compete with others when we play a game， sell commodities， study and so on. We want to do better than others whatever field we are in. So competition is of vital importance in our life.

　　Those who hold the opposite view believe that the best preparation for life and career is learning to be cooperative. Nowadays， the term"teamwork" is really very popular. We may hear"teamwork" everywhere. In a company， cooperation is in the first place. Every member should work together rather than work by himself. When we play football， our teammates should cooperate with each other to win the game. So cooperation is also very important.

　　From my point of view， neither of these two opinions is very exact. I believe that the best preparation for life and career is learning to be both competitive and cooperative. Offsetting your weaknesses by learning from other's strengths， you can eventually succeed in your life and career.
