　　In this era of rapid development in all sphere of society, cooperation weighs more and more heavily in both academic discovery and professional working. However, there exists endless controvercy about whether cooperation undermines the creativity of individual. While some people assert that excessive need of cooperation may lead to a dilemma where no sparks of inspiration can easily light the world, I would argue that both cooperation and creativity values a lot in revolutionary discovery.

　　On one hand, there is no doubt about the significance of genius individuals who explore the universe of knowledge without cooperation. This significance is undeniable especially in terms of arts. We cannot imagine deaf and introvert Beethoven have effiecient cooperation to compose brilliant artworks. All his symphonies and sonatas derive merely from his excellent music sense as well as his distinct experence. Moreover, as he once said, music has no business with others, it is the melodic flows in composers' mind, and only individual endeavors can ensure that these flows become notes in the scores. Likewise, revolutionary leap in science also results from individual struggles. A well-know example is discovery of Einstein's relativity theory and Bohr's quantum theory. These two sciencists refused to cooperate with each other because their directions of research were completely different. As a result of this non-cooperation, they both ushered in new areas of physics which remains as two main branches in physics nowadays.

　　On the other hand, application of genious theory or composition requires cooperation. It is impossible to play Beethoven's symphony with only one musician however virtuoso he is. On the contrary, millions of music researchers participate in interpretation of these masterpieces and enable following musician to appreciate and play these symphonies. Without cooperation of a large orchestra and former researchers, Beethoven's remains merely as pale score in yellow papers. Similarly, Manhatten Projects's success mainly came from efficient cooperation of hundruds of nuclear scientists who all strive to put Einstein's theory into powerful atomic bomb.

　　Judging from all mentioned above, both individual creativity and cooperation should be emphesized. /*And students who intend to be backbone in foreseeable future should be trained with both quilities in order to achieve success.
