Dear all,
I am writing this letter to express my gratitude to my parents for teaching me to be positive and to be strong. “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” is the opinion held by Aristotle. It is the experience of our forefathers, however, it is correct even today, including my parenting.
It is widely acknowledged that parenting, which can also be explained as family education, is of great significance in our character forming and manner acquiring. To be more detailed, setting good examples instead of just giving precepts is the greatest achievement of my parents. They not only taught me to think for the best and prepare for the worst; they taught me how. They not only told me the benefits of being strong in mind; they proved it. All those things require huge amount of time and work, but it’s worth it.
Without my parents’ contribution and education, I would never be who I am now. But most importantly, I would never be more gratitude to them than today.
Yours,
XXX
记忆里的六月,似乎只是停留了一瞬,便滑向了黎明的边缘,它如同炽热的流星飞过,照亮了整片黑暗的距离。 这是一个属于青春的季节,有着轻盈的风絮,碰触希望的光芒。同样这也是一个属于离别的季节,很多故事都没有来得及呈现,就被凋零的时光逐一隐藏,只剩下一些浮云,一些感动,悄然的留在了记忆的最深处。
都说,六月是一个人生的转折,它终结了一个青涩的时代,开启了一个成长的梦想。而我,恰恰怀念在这个多年后的六月,心绪透明,上演着悲欢的无意,只是安静的回首,那些曾出现在梦里的花开花落,一切都是那么的真实,恍如昨日。
我知道,人生中有很多经历注定会被时光搁浅,留不下故事的结局,就像灰尘一样,纵使不知未来的停留,却始终执着着漂泊的方向。也许,太多的感伤总是让人身不由已,就像未知的命运,我们总是无法去支配它,留下的,也只有默默的接受,在每一轮季节的深处,磕磕绊绊,浮浮沉沉。
青春的途中,似乎总是充满了相聚和分离,当沙漏的时光一去不复返,记忆被一日日的减少,我似乎预见了六月的天空,骄阳下流淌着的泪水,肆意的张扬在离别的枝头,最终还是无法挽留的落下。
一直以来,我始终都相信世间一定有什么是可以天长地久的,或许是感情,亦或许是记忆,遗憾的只是没有被我找到而已。当以前熟悉的容貌在时光的奔袭中逐渐变得模糊,我才明白,有很多东西注定避免不了如烟花般短暂的谢幕。 也许,在这个短暂的过程中,有很多东西都被消磨的面目全非,不论是看得见的还是看不见的,一如风景,一如心事,而唯一没变的或许就是岁月留下的枯荣了。
淳淳时光,透过记忆的面纱,看穿那一帘雨落的幽梦,我仿佛听到了一声声颤抖的叹息,轻轻穿透被冻结的灵魂,这是青春留下的颓废,似初冬的阳光般,流连于晚风中慢慢枯萎,零落成灰。
忽然很想写字,很想读书,抓起久违的铅笔,漫无目的的抒写在重叠的纸张上,只是怎么也找不到当年的感觉,或许,那种味道只能追溯到遥远的梦里,与寂寞有染现实无关。就像在多年前那个春末夏初的午后,我们都没敢用挥手的方式道别,因为,一个转身,一个心动,泪就会忍不住的落下来。
还记得,当年大家约定的永远,在这平平仄仄的许多岁月里,常常会莫名的想起。有谁知道,永远到底有多远?这个答案是否存在。世间之事总如大梦一场,几多心事,此番种种,是缘是份又有几人知。
回忆的故事,眷恋于灵魂深处的感动,一直延续到现在,却怎么也理不清时光的脉络。夜阑更深,枯灯影斜,谁能跨越心的界线,我把时光留在荒芜的客场,亲手埋下了盛装的留恋。
年华几度,二十余载就这样匆匆而过,没有留下什么轰轰烈烈,记忆最多的依旧还是浑浑噩噩。想起那些年,青灯下的残书破卷,那些随风乱飞的纸张,还有那思念成伤的日日夜夜,我不知道留下了多少颠三倒四却又真挚掏心的胡言乱语,也许,再也没有人可以想起。
记忆中的风铃,似乎依旧挂在昨日的地点,伴随着微风摇曳着属于它自己的旋律,一切依旧,不同的只是,那些年留过的听众,却在这不经意的成长里走过了一批又一批,故事换了主角,而时光却一直没变。
窗外的阳光,穿透柳絮的飞扬,跌落在玻璃的一角,折叠出色彩的褶皱。我细数着那每一道或深或浅的印迹,于记忆荒芜的晨垣里,把往事雕成文字,潮湿了心中阳光的味道。
走进六月,纵使别离是曾经的约定,可我还是忍不住的想把这一切化为生命中最美的执着,献给我一去不返的花样年华。
六月,终究还是离别。
Dear Mary,
You said in your letter that many of your classmates wore fashionableclothes, but you couldn't afford them so you felt very depressed. There are dif-ferent views on people's clothes. The followings are my ideas:
Firstly, you shouldn't put too much emphasis on physical appearance.
Remember that the most important task for you today is to concentrate on yourstudies. No matter what you wear, you will really look your best when youcome out first in your examinations.
Secondly, you should understand that it is a fine virtue to live in fru-gality. Just as a famous saying goes, Frugality is the mother of virtue.
Since your family can't provide you with enough money to buy fashionableclothes, it is all the more necessary for you to try to lighten the financialburden of your family. And you will find the virtue of frugality benefit youa lot in your future life.
I hope you understand what I mean. Hope you will take a positive attitudetowards life and will be happy again when you read my letter.
Yours,
Anne
The Role of Mobile Phone in People's Communication
The popularity of smartphones has exerted great influence on the way people communicate, so much so that an increasing number of individuals contend that face-to-face communication is being replaced by texts and images on the mobile phone.
There are more than one angle to consider this phenomenon. On one hand, it is pleasantly acknowledged that smartphones shorten the distance between families and friends. Even people from different sides of the globe can share pictures, feelings and thoughts through various types of apps on the phone, thus building a long-distance connection. On the other hand, as the picture warns us, too much smartphone addiction interferes with people's real-life communication. Statistics show that over 70 percent of face-to-face communication consists of facial expressions and body language, which is why people should stay away from mobile phones when they have the chance to actually talk and communicate with others.
In a word, mobile phones act as an appropriate platform where people can always stay in tough however long the distance is, but a wise man should know when to put down his phone.
Nowadays, many famous university campuses have become one of the popular tourist attractions. It has been shown on TV and on the radio that every year thousands and thousands of middle school students visit Tsing Hua University and Peking University and other famous universities in China. In the place far away from the capital city, the local students also visit the universities famous in their own province.
So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to open the university campus for tourists? Different people have different opinions. On one hand, some people argued that it is a good thing for the students to visit the famous university campus in that it can enable the middle students to get more information about the university and they can have enough time and opportunity to prepare themselves with the chance to get into the university. On the other hand, some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon. In their opinion, the public tourism will have negative effect on the universities because it will not only do harm to the environment but also to the intellectual atmosphere.
In my opinion, the tourism to the universities is not a good thing. The campus is mainly a place for study. With the increasing tourism on the campus, it will ruin the spiritual atmosphere in this learning field.
首先,提纯范文 “谋篇布局”及结构模板。
第一段:提出问题或现象。Nowadays, … … have become one of the popular … …. It has been shown on TV and on the radio that … ….
第二段:正反列举人们的看法。So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to … …? Different people have different opinions. On one hand, some people argued that it is a good thing for … … in that … …. On the other hand, some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon. In their opinion, … … will have negative effect on … … because it will not only do harm to … … but also to … ….
第三段:摆明自己观点。In my opinion, … … is not a good thing. … … With the increasing … …, it will ruin … ….
其次,提纯范文“段落写作”。
段落写作分为统一性,连贯性和完整性三方面。
统一性(unity:段落开头的主题句应该做到不可太宽泛,也不可太具体,做到有较强的概括性才能使下文做到有的放矢的展开。范文第二段首句以设问的方式提出一个问题is it a good or bad thing就有很强的概况性。下文自然会一方面从好的方面说明,另一方面从坏的方面说明。
连贯性(coherence:关联词是使文章段落之间相互连贯的必要条件。范文中nowadays, on one hand, on the other hand, in one’s opinion即以“启承转合”递进的顺序是文章条理清晰,层层展开。
完整性(completeness:以设问句“So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to open the university campus for tourists?”开头,这是平时较少运用的段落写作方式——设问法。“On one hand … …. On the other hand, … ….”是段落写作分类列举法的典型用法。
再次,提纯范文“句子写作”。
1. It has been shown that … …
类似句型:It is known to us that … …
It is said that … …
It is reported that … …
It is controversial that … …
2. “… … Tsing Hua University and Peking University and other famous universities … …。”——并列句。并列句是简单的复杂句。但其运用方法并不简单,注意练习并接句的使用,会使句子显的更加饱满。
3. enable v. 使…能够
I gave him full directions to enable him to find the house.
4. in that = because
表“因为”的连词还有since, for, as,如:
The boy was absent because he was ill. = The boy was absent since he was ill.
此句以我们常用的人称开头,句式简单,我们可以通过把since提前改变句式,如:
Since the boy was ill, he was absent. 句式多样化。
最后,提纯范文“措辞”。
1. attraction n. 具有吸引力的事情。
2. thousands and thousands 成千上万的
形容“多”的表达方法:millions and millions
a multitude of
a great deal of
a large amount of
plenty of
many a
3. “some people argued that … …”中的“argue”并不是“讨论,辩论”的意思,而是“认为”。
I argue that … …
I maintain that … …
I claim that … …
I insist that … … = I think that … …
I hold that … …
I assert that … …
I assume that … …
4. negative adj. 否定的.,相反的
hold negative view = hold opposite opinions
5. phenomenon n. 现象
social phenomenon 社会现象
natural phenomenon 自然现象
6. intellectual adj. 聪明的= intelligent, bright, clever
(选词策略:使用最近所学的单词,如intellectual > intelligent > bright > clever
在分析并掌握范文之后,我们需要运用范文知识练习仿写。笔者运用2005年12月范文中的模板结构仿写了2006年12月的四级作文,以供参考:
1. 许多人喜欢在除夕夜看春节晚会
2. 但有些人提出取消春节晚会
3. 我的看法
Nowadays, the Spring Festival Evening has become one of the popular topic and attractions during every traditional New Year’s Eve. It has been shown on TV and on the radio that every year thousands and thousands of Chinese people appear to be accustomed to enjoying the sights and sounds of a brilliant feast, while gathering with their beloved family.
However, an increasing number of people have voiced different opinions towards it. So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to cancel the Spring Festival Evening? Different people have different opinions. On one hand, some people argued that it is a good thing to amuse the audience in that it is composed by a numerous adequate programs, such as the emotional song, the graceful dance, the funny short sketch, the amusing comic dialogue, the delightful magic, and the marvelous acrobatics and so on. On the other hand, some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon. In their opinion, the Spring Festival Evening will have negative effect on the family harmony because it will not only do harm to having the talks between family members on the Spring Festival Eve but also to enjoying the gourmet meal in a fancy restaurant.
In my opinion, the Spring Festival Evening is a good thing. It may not remain a must for all people, but it can bring us a strong sense of festivity and serve as an alternative among the variety of holiday activities. With the increasing audience of the Spring Festival Evening, it will ruin a distinctive culture during the Spring Festival vacation.
