VII.TranslationfromEnglishintoChinese.(本大題共15分)

計劃是我們生活中一項非常重要的活動。它能使人愉快，甚至令人興奮，但也會讓人十分頭疼。工作越重要，所需的計劃就要越仔細。按時上班或上學是幾乎根本不需要計劃的工作，它只不過是日常事務。而長達一個月的國外旅游度假，或更甚之，結婚娶親，就完全是兩碼事了。如果假期中還要舉行婚禮，接待50位來賓，舉辦招待會，去意大利度蜜月，再回到新家，那就更需要計劃周全，以確保成功。計劃使我們能夠保證成功，避免那些代價昂貴，而我們又難以承受的失敗。對于整個人類、民族、家庭乃至個人來說，計劃同樣又是必不可少的。其規�？纱罂尚�，但重要性都一樣。
