2018年托福口语考试范文：你喜欢当领导吗？

　　【高分范文回答】

　　I prefer to be a leading member in a group project.

　　The first reason is that it places you in the spotlight. Some people may believe that its disadvantages outweigh its advantages. In my opinion, attention is better than being ignored. Furthermore, when you have something to lose, you will perform better. Few can remember the men in the trenches, but many remember the men leading their fellow men to achieve great things.

　　Second, one of the most important reasons for becoming the leader in a group is the ability to make a difference. Leaders make decisions that have far-reaching ramifications for a group larger than themselves. Followers are at the mercy of their leaders and do not have this ability. If you have a dream of your own that you can't achieve without the help of a lot of people, you'll need leadership skills to get them behind you.

　　我喜欢成为一个团队项目的领导成员。第一个原因是你在聚光灯下。有些人可能认为自己的缺点大于优点。在我看来，注意力比被忽视要好。此外，当你关心的时候，你会表现得更好。很少有人记得无名小卒，但许多人记得领导他们的同胞取得伟大成就的人。其次，成为一个群体中领导者的最重要的原因之一就是有能力做出改变。领导者做出决定对一个比自己大的群体有深远的影响。追随者们受制于他们的领导者，没有这种能力。如果你有梦想，你自己的，你不能没有很多人的帮助下实现的，你需要领导能力，让他们在你的身后。
