大学英语六级考试写作经典范文及点评:欲望

Appetite

One of the major pleasures in life is appetite, and one of our major duties should be to preserve it.Appetite is the keenne of living: it is one of the senses that tells you that you are still curious to exist, that you still have an edge on your longings and want to bite into the world and taste its numerous flavors and juices.By appetite, of course, I don’t mean just the desire for food, but any condition of unsatisfied desire, any burning in the blood that proves you want more than you’ve got, and that you haven’t used up your life.Wilde said he felt sorry for those who never got their heart’s desire, but sorrier still for those who did.For appetite, for me, is this state of wanting, which keeps one’s expectations alive.

I remember learning this leon long ago as a child, when treats and indulgence were few, and when I discovered that the greatest pitch happine was not in actually eating a toffee but in gazing at it

beforehand.True, the first bite was delicious, but once the toffee was gone one was left with nothing, neither toffee nor lust.Besides, the whole toffeene of toffees was imperceptibly diminished by the gro act of having eating it.No, the best was in wanting it, in sitting and looking at it, when one tasted an endle treasure house of flavors.So, for me, one of the keenest pleasures of appetite remains in the wanting, not the satisfaction.In wanting a peach, or a whisky, or a particular texture or sound, or to be with a particular friend, for in those condition, of course, I know that the object of desire is always at its most flawlely perfect.For that matter, I don’t want three square meals a day — I want one huge, delicious, orgiastic, table groaning blow out, say every four days, and then not be too sure where the next one is coming from①.A day of fasting is not for me just a device for denying oneself a pleasure, but rather a way of anticipating a rarer moment of supreme enjoyment.

行文点评
