英文小作文:
I feel contempt for those who are easily offended or take offense easily. They seem to be so fragile and easily overwhelmed by negativity, which makes me wonder if they are truly strong or if they are just trying to appear so. In my opinion, those who can"t handle criticism or constructive feedback are not only unwise, but also ungrateful for the opportunities they are given in life. We all have flaws and weaknesses, but it"s how we handle them that defines us. Those who can"t handle criticism should seek help and learn to cope better with negative emotions, rather than succumbing to them and showing contempt for those around them.
