英文小作文：

Today, I had a challenging task of writing a report on the topic of "Contrived vs. Natural". I realized that in many aspects of life, we are faced with the choice between being natural or contrived. For instance, in social interactions, we have to decide whether to be ourselves or pretend to be someone else. Similarly, in work situations, we have to choose whether to follow the rules or go against them.

In my opinion, it is always better to be natural. Being natural means being true to oneself and expressing oneself in a way that is authentic and comfortable. On the other hand, being contrived can lead to artificiality and dissatisfaction with oneself and others. However, it is not always easy to be natural, especially when social pressures or other external factors are present. Nevertheless, I believe that with practice and self-awareness, we can learn to be more natural and avoid being too contrived.
