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
每个人,都曾在父亲的照耀和母爱的滋润下茁壮成长。父母,给予了我们无私的关怀、不求回报的扶助,把一个懵懂的孩童培养成茁壮的少年。从他们那里,仿佛什么都可以得到。但是,亲情只是一味索取吗?
我小时候,十分乐衷于指使父母做事。我颐指气使地命令着,他们似乎也心甘情愿,忙忙碌碌地为我奔波着。这样的恶习陪伴着我,度过了十余年的春秋。
渐渐长大了,父母也发觉我已然不是小孩子了,便减少为我“服务”的次数。我哀告不止,每次还是会情不自禁地喊出:“爸爸,我要……”尽管他们嘴上在教训着我,但还是去厨房为我忙碌,我也趁机钻空,这样的习惯让我觉得很“幸福”。
就在我12岁的一天,妈妈通过微信给我发来了一段视频,出于好奇心,我点开了它,看到的画面却令人震惊:一个衣着艳丽的女孩斜靠在床上,手中摆弄着手机,吃着母亲为她洗好的枣子。被背景看,这不是一个富裕的家庭,可看上去已到工作年龄的女孩怎么不去挣钱养家呢?这时,一个背微驼、头发花白的中年妇女走进了画面之中,应该是那女孩的母亲。但出于意料,那女孩竟像使唤奴仆一样命令她的母亲洗衣做饭,还不时出声责备。
视频还未看完,我就已在心中默默谴责女孩的.忘恩负义:母亲含辛茹苦地抚养子女,却还受到子女入调遣利用、甚至责备。我也十分同情那位母亲,年龄大了还被如此“折磨”。
恍惚之间,我仿佛看见了我倚靠在床背上,指使母亲去做脏活、累活。我一惊,才意识到这视频中的女孩似乎就是我生活中的缩影,向和蔼、疼爱我的父母一味索取。两行眼泪瞬时冲出了我的眼眶,滴洒在衣襟之上。
就在那么一刹那间,我忽然长大了,忽然明白了亲情并不是纵容我一味向父母索取,哪怕只是一个指使,也不应成为亲情带给我们的特权。亲情,不是让父母被子女利用,而应是父母与子女间的沟通桥梁,把父母与子女紧紧拴在一直的绳子。
这些感悟,也在我今后的生活中潜移默化地影响着我。我不再大喊大叫指使父母,而是付以切身行动。我点点滴滴的改变,都被他们看在眼中,喜在心中。他们并没有说什么,但当那喜悦的光芒从他们眼中流露出来,欣慰的微笑从他们的嘴洋溢出来的时候,却是我心中最美的一道风景。
亲情,不是一味索取,而是互相理解和包容。建立在关爱和奉献基础上的亲情,才是最为珍贵的!
自古逢秋悲寂寥,我言秋日胜春朝。
——题记
看过海边的风景,微微的咸风轻轻拂过海水的面颊;看过夜晚的风景,轻描淡写地描绘出月朗的墨色;看过江南秋风气爽的烟雨潺潺,也听见了小桥流水的窃窃私语声。但生命之美仅在那时蔓延盛开。
突如其来的深秋卷走了浓云翻涌的盛夏,尽管翌日的清晨,沉重的面纱依然没有从天空中褪去,天边无际的白云仿佛被掺了清水,显得清凉而阴薄。风儿向树叶唏嘘着它的过往,一瞬几片落叶映入眼帘,带着几分逝去的繁茂,沉淀着衰老的年华,青春褪去了整片落叶,而岁月却爬上了它的两鬓。在逆风而行的道路上,秋风席卷着我耳边的碎发,使我寸步难行,风止意难平,不经意间的回眸,橘红色浸满了我的瞳孔,兜兜转转,峰回路转,我注意到了不同的它。
它是一棵孤独的树,在百花盛开万紫千红的早春,我从未注意过它;在枝繁叶茂,绿树成荫的`仲夏,我从未这样驻足欣赏过它。一片橘红的树叶飘入我的眼帘,透着一股磅礴却寡淡的油墨香气,凝视着脚下黄昏的残叶,那徒劳的枝干在风中摇曳,但在无情的深秋谁有能欣赏它的美呢?答案不言而喻。凝望着它的轮廓,我晃过神来,也许这就是它的出彩地方,它的伙伴都愿意在大地生机勃勃的时候盛开,而她却愿意给伤感的秋天给予一丝慰藉。看着它橘红色的诗意马上就要退却,孤独的灵魂马上就要暗淡,可它的出现却给人们的心灵及其强大的能量,若说它自甘堕落,不如说它慷慨无私!岁月匆匆而去,沥述了往昔,淡化了尘埃,浸入了庭院。希望,兴味盎然。
落落余晖,眼眸微酸,我带着希望走上了回家的旅途。
岁月如故,往事烟消云散,温柔的晚风将它微弱的气息已经归还了大地,明媚的朝霞将它的灵魂送向远方。一道蜿蜒的泪痕从我眼边奔腾而下,不知何时,心中多了这一片停滞的风景。
生命之美不在于一时的灿烂,而在于持之以恒的圆满。
那一次,我看懂了落叶的风景!
To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
一沙一世界,
一花一天堂,
手中即无限,
永恒亦短暂。
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.
