Usually we feel depressed, tend to quit and end up with failure. However, things would be much more different

10、if we adopt a positive attitude towards those seemingly unfavourable situations. As the saying goes, “a man can succeed at almost anything for which he has unlimited enthusiasm.“ In my view, the saying can be justified by the following two reasons. For one thing, the saying is true in that people wi

11、th great enthusiasm are inclined to have an optimistic attitude towards life. For another, enthusiasm means a firm belief in what we are doing. We believe that our study or work is important and contributes to our ultimate goal, thus we are willing to put all our efforts to do it well. Great people

12、could make history when they put enthusiasm into their mission while ordinary people could change their lives when they are full of enthusiasm. As college students, a good way to generate enthusiasm is to learn from successful people. In most cases, they share a common trait: enthusiasm. If we want

13、to succeed, we are required to be excited about our study and our life. 【试题解析】 作者在第一段通过对比的方式引出了谚语：一个人，只要他有无限的热情，就几乎可以在任何事情上取得成功。 第二段从两个方面说明怀有热情的重要性。一方面，怀有热情的人对生活乐观；另一方面，怀有热情意味着人们对自己正在做的事情深信不疑。本段末句Great people could make historywhen they put enthusiasm into their mission while ordinary people could c

They have such a tremendous effect that Mark Twain even

15、 remarked, “I can live for two months on a good compliment.“ As far as I am concerned, compliments are essential to our life for the following three reasons. Firstly, compliments from others build our confidence and inspire our potentials. Here is a story to illustrate this point. There was a child

16、who was often scorned by others for he was slow in study. But his mother never stopped giving him compliments. Little by little, he built up confidence, made much progress and finally entered a famous university. Secondly, compliments in our daily life bring us harmony and happiness. Receiving compl

17、iments makes us more confident and become friendly to the givers. Whats more, the significance of compliments has also been proved by psychological studies, which show that compliments to the soul is like water to the body. Good compliments can help us to win peoples hearts, promote friendships, and

18、 improve our life. So be generous to give your heartfelt compliments to the people around you! 【试题解析】 第一段第一句便开门见山地指出赞美是生活中的必需品，它可以鼓励人们并温暖人们的心灵。下一句接着引入马克 ?吐温的著名言论：一句赞美的话可 以让我生活两个月。 第二段给出了赞美如此重要的三条理由。第一，赞美可以帮助人们建立信心，激发潜力；第二，日常生活中的赞美给我们带来了和谐和幸福；第三，心理研究也证明了赞美的重要性。第一条理由中讲述了一个故事：母亲通过称赞孩子来帮助他建立自信并获得进步，最终孩子

19、考上了名牌大学。这个例证充分说明了赞美的重要性，形象有力。 第三段重申赞美的重要性，总结全文。 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 The Significance of Industry One has to be industrious to fulfill his dreams and achieve success. As the saying goes, “If you have talents, industry will improve them; if you have but moderate abilities, industry will supply their de

20、ficiency.“ As far as I am concerned, the saying is true in two aspects. For one thing, due to industry, many talented people turn out to be great people. The story of Si Maqian is a good case in point. In order to write his great work The Historical Records, Si Maqian had traveled all the places aro

21、und the Yellow River and the Yangtze River to collect materials. For another, for people with moderate abilities, industry can supply peoples deficiency. For example, Isaac Newton was often laughed at by other pupils at primary school because of his bad performance in study, but he turned out to be

22、a great physicist through his persistent hard work. From what have been discussed above, we have good reasons to believe in the saying. If we want to achieve more, we are supposed to be more industrious and expend more efforts. 【试题解析】 第一段引出名言：如果你天赋很高，勤奋会使天赋更高；如果你只有中等能力，勤奋会弥补能力的不足。由此可确定 “勤奋、脚踏实地 ”为本文的核心内容。 第二段通过司马迁和牛顿的具体事例证明勤奋的重要性。 第三段总结全文。 【知识模块】 作文
