3、hten out his or her problems. Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit motionless before his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Watch a good policeman,
4、 and you will see that he does not stand motionless in the street: he walks the whole time he is on duty; he scans around, his head swiveling vigilantly and his eyes fixing at any suspect. l The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesnt mean that he will indeed be able to
5、 act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teachers work and the actors.

6、ifferences between the basketball players work and the football players. A good teacher works in quite a different way.

9、l I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because their brains wouldnt keep discipline: they could not keep strictly to what another had written. I have known many learners who were fine painters in the background of society but were unab

11、 由于文中不可避免地要多次提到信心,缺乏信心这样的内容, 不能总是用confidence或lack of confidence。lConfidence - faith - build up faith l - feel capable of doing sth.llack of confidence - lose heart l - feel frustrated l l 平时练作文时就要养成找同义表达和反义表达的习惯。 譬如, 从反面着眼, 想想一个人要是没有信心, 原因是什么? 如果想到了是个不能正确估计自己和估计困难的问题, 那么就找出了一个可环绕做文章的词眼 - estimate(估计
12、), estimate 既可作动词, 也可作名词, 还可加前缀变成overestimate(过高估计) 和underestimate(过低估计),用起来有声有色。 Whatever one does, one should do it with confidence. If one has no confidence, there is little possibility that one would ever achieve anything, especially when one is faced with drawbacks or hardships. This truth seem
13、s to be self-evident. 一个人不论做什么一个人不论做什么, , 都要做得有信心。都要做得有信心。如果没有信心如果没有信心, , 就不可能成就任何事情就不可能成就任何事情, , 尤尤其是在面临挫折或艰难的时候。其是在面临挫折或艰难的时候。 这一真理这一真理似乎是不言自明的。似乎是不言自明的。 However, in reality we do see a lot of people who complain that they lack the ability to do something or that their difficulties are too great t
14、o overcome. 然而, 在现实中我们确实看到许多人抱怨他们缺乏作某事的能力或者他们的困难太大了, 没法克服。 For some, this might be true. But for many, this only shows that they have lost heart. 对有些人来讲, 这也许是对的, 可是对许多人来说, 这只说明他们失去了信心。1 These people do not have a correct estimate of themselves. 2 They overestimate the difficulties. Why do people oft
15、en feel frustrated even though they are quite capable of doing something? There are, among others, two main reasons. First, these people do not have a correct estimate of themselves. Second, they overestimate the difficulties. 为什么人们即使有相当能力做好某事时也常常感到灰心丧气呢? 诸般原因中, 有两点重要的。第一,这些人对自己没有正确的估计。第二, 他们过高地估计了困
16、难。 注意这个结构中加了一个“among others”, 用两个逗号插在主谓语之间, 一方面表示客观, 不是认为只有两个原因, 而是诸般原因中的两点; 另一方面在一个简单句中插上一个短语, 更能展现语言水平。 结尾段点明作者观点: 对自己抱正确态度才能建立信心。然后引述一条俗语, 再对这条俗语呼应一句就结尾了。l It is possible to build up faith in oneself by having the right attitude towards ones own abilities. We should never underestimate our abilit
17、ies but should believe in the proverb: “There is a will, there is a way.” Confidence is the guarantee of fulfilling a task successfully. 对自己的能力持正确的态度就可以树立信心。我们永远不要低估自己的能力, 而要相信这条格言:“有志者事竟成”。 信心是成功完成一项任务的保证。 从上面的分析可以看到,这篇文章够罗嗦的,够空洞的,但同时又是原意扩展各种手法的大集中,用这些手法把一个不言自明的主题,拉成了一篇作文,表现了英语写作的功力。 非应试作文慎用这类技巧, 应
18、试作文则往往要这样写。 Brainstorming 思路: diligence的近义表达 : hard work strive to work diligence 的反义表达 : laziness leave todays work to be done tomorrow批判对立面(不勤奋者): lack of ability in controlling themselves; pleasure seeking立论: human beings true value of life: learning and creation, discovering and changing the wor

21、y when one is dealing with a tough job. This truth seems to be self-evident. However, in reality we do see a lot of people who complain that they lack the ability to do something or that their difficulties are too great to overcome. For some, this might be true.

22、ey have lost heart. However, in reality we do see quite a few people who while away a lot of time chatting, drinking, or watching television, and always leave todays work to be done tomorrow. Some of them may make an excuse for what they have done, but theres no room for any excuse for laziness.Why
23、do people often feel frustrated even though they are quite capable of doing something? There are, among others, two main reasons. First, these people do not have a correct estimate of themselves. Second, they overestimate the difficulties. Why dont such people strive to work? There are, among others
24、, two main reasons. First, they lack persistence in controlling themselves. There are so many joyful things around them that they always feel difficult to concentrate themselves on their work or study. Second, they may prefer to another way of living “eat, drink, and be merry”. It is possible to bui
25、ld up faith in oneself by having the right attitude towards ones own abilities. We should never underestimate our abilities but should believe in the proverb: “There is a will, there is a way.” Confidence is the guarantee of fulfilling a task successfully. A main difference between human beings and
26、animals is the ability to learn and to create. Only through learning and creation can one realize his own value. But that means hard work. We should never spoil ourselves but should believe in the proverb: “Diligence is the mother of success.” We shall enjoy real happiness when we eventually achieve

28、hat one would ever achieve anything, especially when one is in business. This truth seems to be self-evident. However, in reality we do see quite a few people who act unfairly in order to win an advantage or profit from their partner, and even play tricks on their customers. Knavery may serve for a
29、turn, but you cant fool all the people all the time. Honesty is the best policy.Why dont such people keep their word? There are, among others, two main reasons. First, there is lots of temptation of easy profits in the world nowadays. Second, they lack ability in controlling themselves. They give wa
30、y to the greed which is the excessive and selfish desire for wealth. Honesty is an ethical principle that permeates many situations, and is also a factor in developing strong customer relationships. The wise man is always frank, because he knows that “honesty is placed above jewels and treasures”. W
31、e should never spoil ourselves but should believe in this proverb. Why Childrens Schoolbags Are Getting HeavierIn recent years, our government has never stopped from calling on schools and teachers to lighten childrens load of study, but childrens schoolbags are getting heavier. What do you think ar
32、e the reasons? Write a three-paragraph composition of about 150 words to explain that. lIn the first paragraph, state the phenomenon.lIn the second paragraph, analyze the reasons.lIn the last paragraph, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion. I am a university student. My brother is a p
33、rimary school student. To my surprise, I find that he has more work to do than me. Since our government has called on schools and teachers to relieve childrens burden, why does my brothers burden get heavier? There are mainly three reasons. To begin with, the competition in our society is more and m
34、ore fierce. Children have to learn more skills and knowledge for future survival. Secondly, the schools want their students to have high marks to prove they are good teachers. Lastly, most Chinese families are one-child families. The parents want their children to lead a better life, so they ask the
35、ir child to work hard for a good future. Though it may not be easy, I think, the society, the schools, teachers and parents should gradually change their mind, and give back the children a happy childhood. Today, when you are walking on the street, you will easily find children carry a big schoolbag
36、 in hand or on back. Schools are always trying to release childrens study burden; however, childrens schoolbags are getting heavier. Surveys show that some childrens schoolbags weigh even more than 10 kilograms. In my opinion, there are two reasons for it. First, schools in China seldom provide children with private bookcases. Children have no places for them to store their textbooks in school. As a result textbooks and exercise books on each subject that children have to bring a heavy bag to school every day
