5、ing 1 【正确答案】 On Adversity The saying “Misfortune rather than prosperity helps people to gain a greater understanding of themselves and the world around them.“ indicates that people can benefit from hardship and misfortune. In my opinion, the saying holds true in many circumstances. For one thing, ad
6、versity helps us get a better understanding of ourselves. Without hardship and misfortune, we may never discover what we are truly capable of; without pains and traumas, we may never make adjustments to our values. For another, adversity helps us gain a better understanding of the world around us. I
7、 remember clearly a Chinese movie entitled A World Without Thieves, in which a naive migrant worker carries sixty thousand of cash with him traveling in a train because he simply doesnt believe there are thieves around him. In todays world, if we are never exposed to the harsh reality that evils lur
8、k in every corner, our childish fantasy about the world will one day ruin us. Thus, adversity will help us discover who we are and what the world is like. 【试题解析】 这是一篇议论文,主要讨论的是逆境的作用。 第一段点明主题:逆境在很多情况下都发挥了至关重要的作用。最后一句 In my opinion, the saying holds true in many circumstances是另外一种表达观点的方法。 第二段从内在和外在两个层
9、面论证了逆境可以帮助人认识自己和认识世界。经历了艰难和困苦,我们发现了自己真正的能力;有了痛苦和创伤我们才明白自己的价值,这是认识自己。认识世界是说接触了藏在角落里的社会阴暗面,我们原来对周遭世 界幼稚的幻想才不会毁了我们,并用一部中国电影来举例说明。 第三段总结全文,我们在逆境之中认识了自己和世界。 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 Use Time, Rather Than Spend It Time is equal to everyone, but how it is spent makes an enormous difference. As the saying goes, “
10、Ordinary people merely think how they shall spend their time; a man of talent tries to use it.“ For one thing, using time increases efficiency. People who can make good use of time are more likely to be those who are good at making plans and allocating resources in a rational manner. All of these qu
11、alities can help them be more efficient than other people, thus saving them a lot of time. For another, people who use time are more likely to become the master of time, rather than the slave of time. Ordinary people often complain that there isnt enough time, and when they do get some time off, the
12、y tend to squander it, without a clear idea of how the leisure time could be used to their advantage. In a word, there is a huge gap between using time and spending time. We should strive to become people who know how to use time, rather than waste our precious life. 【试题解析】 这是一篇议论文,主要讨论的是人们对时间的态度。 第
13、一段阐述两类人对时间的不同态度。 第二段从两个方面论证了利用时间的巨大好处。一方面,利用时间增加效率。会利用时间的人通常善于制定计划以及理性地分配资源,这些优点让他们比别人更高效,节省了他们的很多时间。另一方面,知道利用时间的人一般都是时间的主人,而不是时间的奴隶。普通人常常抱怨时间不够,但他们空闲的时候却只是在挥霍,不知道做什么对自己有利。 第三段总结全文,呼吁大家做知道利用时间的人,不虚度光阴。 【 知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 On Self-respect I tend to keep a critical view of the saying that “No one can
14、make you feel inferior without your consent. “ for it is a partial truth. Self-respect undoubtedly requires one to judge himself rightly. If not, it is easy for one to become either arrogant or self-abased. It is understandable to argue that feeling inferior is for lack of self-respect and thus cons
15、titutes a problem that demands special care, while feeling superior to the degree of being arrogant or refusing to admit ones own weaknesses is also a problem because neither are true self-respect. True self-respect is to face that frustration bravely even when one feels inferior to overcome the cau
16、ses of ones inferiority. However, to judge oneself rightly one needs to use others or others opinions as a yardstick. For this reason, true self-respect has something to do with others, though people themselves shall be principally responsible. To sum up, a touch of feeling inferior is not unwelcome
17、 as long as you are brave enough to face it. 【试题解析】 这是一篇议论文,讨论了正确认识自我的重要意义。 第一段阐述作者对于引言持批评的观点,认为它并不完全正确。一般来讲,大部分人写这类议论文时都会倾向于同意名言警句,本文却反其道而行之,观点新颖,从下文来看也是有理有据。 第二段对引言进行评论,正确认识自己需要自己正确评价,否则极易自大或自卑。缺乏自尊造成的自卑要特别关注,而太过自大,不愿承认自己的缺点也是个问题,这两种都不是正确的自尊观念。正确的自尊不是不会感到自卑,而是在勇敢克服自卑感,同时自尊也有赖于其他人的评价,其 他人或他们的观点是影响自
18、尊的一个重要标准。 第三段总结全文。只要能勇敢面对,认识到自己的不足,偶尔的自卑感是可取的。 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 On Aiming High There is a famous saying, “Who aims at excellence will be above mediocrity; who aims at mediocrity will be far short of it.“ It seems that we should set ambitious goals in order to be successful. On the one hand, aiming
19、 high can prompt a person or an organization to work single-mindedly towards the target. Sometimes, if the goal we try to achieve is not challenging enough, we probably wont take pains to accomplish it. But if the target is a little above our capabilities, it will motivate us to constantly make prog
20、ress and work hard towards it. On the other hand, the aims must be reasonably achievable. If we are too ambitious and force ourselves to be someone we will never be or do something we will never succeed in, chances are that we wont be able to find a way to realize our dream and will give up halfway.
21、 Therefore, it is true that we should aim higher when setting our goals, but not too high for us to reach. 【试题解析】 这是一篇议论文,主要讨论的是树立远大志向的问题。 第一段阐述人需要树立高远的目标,因为追求完美最终会在平庸之上,而追求平庸最终连平庸都达不到。 第二段论证了崇高目标的作用,激励个人和组织一心一意地努力付出。有时如果我们的目标没有挑战性,我们可能不会全力以赴。目标稍微高于我们自己的能力时,它将激励我们不断奋进,努力走向成功。但同时指出,人不能好高骛远。不根据实际情况把目标定太高会因太困难而中途放弃,也一样归于平庸。最后一句中, chances are that意为 “有可 能 ” ,是一个亮点句式。 第三段总结全文,既要志存高远,又不能好高骛远,关键是根据自己的能力把握好一个度。 【知识模块】 作文
