　　The Value of Modesty

　　"Modesty is not only an ornament, but also a guard to virtue." Joseph Addison once said. Modesty not only makes one look beautiful and well-mannered, but also serves as a guarantee to his excellent character. Apparently people may lose their fine qualities if they are not modest.

　　Simple as Addison’s remark may sound, it contains abundant life philosophy. Modesty can prompt us to go farther and achieve greater success. Those who are modest will never be content with their current achievements; instead, they will work constantly to accomplish a higher target. Take Benjamin Franklin as an example: He was once a printer of humble origins, so if he was simply satisfied with small achievements, it would be impossible for him to attain enormous achievements in so many fields such as science, politics and literature.

　　We should always keep in mind the significance of modesty in our life. We need to keep an open mind to accept new things, absorb new information, acquire new knowledge and seize new opportunities. "Success consists in industry and modesty." A philosopher once said.

　　谦虚的价值

　　“谦虚不仅仅是一个装饰物，而且是美德的守卫者。”约瑟夫•艾迪生曾经说过。谦虚不仅可以使人看起来美丽、彬彬有礼，同时还是优秀品质的保证。很明显，如果人们不再谦虚，他们可能会失去他们的优秀品质。

　　艾迪生的话也许听起来简单，但它却包含了大量的生活哲理。谦虚会让我们走得更远，获得更大的成功。谦虚的人永远都不会满足于当前的成就;与之相反，他们会一直努力地工作，来达成更高的目标。以本杰明•富兰克林为例：他曾只是个出身卑微的印刷工，所以如果他只是满足于小小的成就，他就不可能在科学、政治和文学等那么多的领域取得巨大的成就。

　　我们应该将谦虚在人生中的重要意义牢记在心。我们需要保持一个开放的心态，去接受新事物、吸收新信息、学习新知识并且抓住新机会。 “成功在于勤奋和谦虚，”一位哲人曾经这样说。
