2、To be a volunteer ，Bring a ray of sunshine山东省济南市山东省齐钢高级中学高三

Dear Tom:

It is a great pleasure for me to have the wonderful chance to put pen to paper and send my greetings to you. You said that you wanted to be a volunteer and didn't know whether you should or not. I want to help you analyze it.

In my opinion. I think it is not only a good chance to help others but also a good opportunity to make self-improvement. You'd better participate in the volunteer work. If we compare youth to flowers, as is often the case, then the young volunteers are the most beautiful flowers. By joining in the volunteer work, you will learn how to help others and how to love others. What's more you can also find out that there are many people suffering from disaster and then you will value your comfortable life. Although you may feel very tired as a volunteer and it may cost you much time to help others, I still insist that you should be a volunteer because the advantages bright about by volunteer work overweigh the disadvantages.

If all the people refused to be volunteers, the people suffered from the 5·12 earthquake could lose heart（丧失勇气） and most of them wouldn't have the chance to survive from that disaster. If none of the people wanted to be a volunteer, the Beijing Olympic Games would be a failure. If every people didn't feel like being a volunteer, there would be no people cleaning the environment and protecting the beautiful scenery automatically（自发地）. It was terrible! From all mentioned above, volunteers play a very important part in our daily life. To be a volunteer will gain glory for China. As is known to all, Chinese children are always laughed at for lacking of practice，so to be a volunteer is a good chance to change it.

From my point of view, it's high time that you became a volunteer and learned to help others. If everyone makes a contribution to helping others, the world will be much more beautiful!

At last, wish you all the best!

Sincerely Yours.

Lily.

专家建议：一篇文章的结构是评判该文章优劣的重要参考标准，但结构显然不够简洁清晰，所以建议作者能在平时多阅读英文报纸上的文章，有意识地观察规范的英语文章是怎样设计结构的。

专家点评：文章二三段的结构很混乱，建议这样的文章段落都应写成总、分、总的形式更能突出文章的逻辑性，并在“分”的部分也一条一条分开写，而不是都堆在一段内，让人分不清哪句是观点哪句是论证，很混乱。另外注意同义词的替换已是文章表达更丰富，比如文章中多次出现的帮助他人就都是使用：help others就显得过于单一了

3、The importance of volunteer work 辽宁省鞍山市鞍山市第一中学高三

In my opinion, volunteer work is quite an important part of the modern society. The reasons

are as follows.

In the modern time, thanks to the development of economy and technology, material enjoyment earned both in higher quality and larger quantity. At a price of this, individuals are taking the risk of losing their own values and even sparing no effort to make their fartane even at the price of the interest of the society. So the volunteer work has been playing an important part as a spiritual comfort not only to the receivers but also to the volunteers, promoting the well-being of the love-givers, making extra value for others and keeping a perfect balance of the whole society.

In families, volunteer work will help to emphasize the importance of morality, meet emotional needs and even become a vivid educational lesson. Parents, who are widely regarded as the first and most important teachers of their children, are teaching their children through the activities which must truly toach the deepest part of the young souls, instead of serious, traditional critical words. Also, during the process, in which every member shows us true love, other members are able to recognize him from a difference point of view. This kind of awareness is promised to promote the communication of the family in the future. In the whole world, the volunteer work can be considered to be an appropriate part of the globalization, during which the world is becoming a Global village. And the natural and economic chisasters are driving people from different cultural back grounds to stand together on the same side, emphasizing the interest of the whole world, which must not be defended without any country's participation. And it is the volunteer work that can be granted the role of offering help in its hour of maximum need.

All in all, volunteer work is truly an irreplaceable part of the society and it is our responsibility to give our hands to make the world a better place.

专家建议：建议该生平时利用好学校里使用的中学英语教科书，因为教科书的权威性不容置疑，选材也适合中学生，是精读甚至背诵的最好选择。之所以推荐给作者教科书，是因为该考生在写作长句子时出现较多错误，说明该生的语法基础不够夯实，那么中学英语课本就恰好能弥补这个弱点。

专家点评：文章结构清晰明了，简洁明了的开头和结尾紧扣主题，精干又有力，很方便读者对文章主旨的把握。中间部分的逻辑性强，思路也很清晰。唯一不足的是在一些长难句的表达上出现了一些错误，有些句子让人很难理解。在以后的写作中可以多关注长句子的练习。

专家建议：在不跑题前提下，内容虽然重要，但关键是语言的包装，建议多看些优秀范文，和英文原著，增加语感，这样文章会更传神。

专家点评：文章思路清晰，叙述条理清楚，但句子之间的衔接做得不够，要多用连接词。此外，应多掌握一些词语的同义词，这样避免重复。在句式变换方便也要多下些功夫。

第七届复赛作文范文The Advantages and Disadvantages of Computers辽宁市鞍山市第一中学Nowadays, the idea of progress lorns so large in the modern world, and the progress of a particular kind is actually taking place around us. In this circumstances, computers which have a great help come out with the wisdom and hard-working of human beings. It does have given human a tremendous help, it, however, has brought to us its harm at the same time.

The computers can make a great help for us in this high speed society. In the light of this statement, it is computers that can store documents for us which is essential for us, it is computers that can shorten the time in seeking useful information instead of looking for knowledge from a large sums of books and it is computers that can make it possible to communicate with different people who are far away from you. In a word, we can't live normally without computers in such a high-tech society.

On the contrary, having helped us a lot, computers are harmful to people at the same time,

especially the adolescents. First of all, sitting in front of the computer may do harm to our eyes. On the other hand, computers not only bring us useful information but also entertainments. Being weak in controlling themselves, those poor adolescents are easier to get crazy about the fantasy world. Seeing a vivid picture which is about a son who gets stuck in computers and phones to his parents downstairs to bring dinner for him. I realized deeply that the computers really have their disadvantages.

According to the statements above, it can not be superficial to simply say that computers are good or bad for us as every coin has both sides. Personally, I still consider that a computer can bring us convenience and high speed which is extolled to all the people even though it is a two-edged weapon. We can learn well punctuated by those purchasable wells of wisdom - computers. 专家建议：

本文个别语言使用不够地道并且偶尔出现句子表意不明的情况，因此建议该考生在平时的学习中尽量多阅读原汁原味的英语(论坛) 文章，有意识地积累地道的英语表达，不断提高语言运用能力。

专家点评：本篇文章段落结构基本清晰，第一段交代文章主题，第二段主要说明计算机的优势，第三段罗列计算机给人们带来的害处，最后一段是对文章的总结和作者个人看法，整篇文章思路比较清晰。文章用词较为准确，也出现了不少词组及句型，语法多样性也有所体现。能看出这绝对是高中生中佼佼者完成的文章。不足之处在于有个别语言点不够地道，希望以后能进一步雕琢语言，使写作水平进一步提升。

The Advantages and Disadvantages of Computers.安徽省黄山市屯溪一中高一

Currently, with the development of Internet, more and more people focus on the issue that whether it is right to have got a computer. As we all know, a coin has two sides, and a computer has both advantages and disadvantages. Sometimes, we insist that it is rather useful to get a computer, but on the other hand, we find it much more harmful. In a word, however, nothing gains more discussion than computers.

For one thing, we regard computer convenient, in that we can use a computer to draw pictures, write essays and sum up countless numbers. We work on computers and communicate by Internet. Because of e-mails, on-line shopping and a number of information on Internet, we admire the useful computer. What's more, computer and Internet can work in a fantastic speed, which makes our work swiftly. No one can deny that, human can live and work well without computers.

For another, however, computers bring harm to us as well. First, computer games are at large nowadays. Teenagers can be attracted by them easily. They play computers night and day, forgetting anything including study. They spend their valuable time hurting their active bodies. Glasses on their faces show their weakness of sight. Meanwhile internet provides too many things and people cannot tell bad ones from right ones promptly sometimes. As a result, their spirit can be damaged. Nothing can be worse than this. The last but not the least, internet offers many ways to crime. Meanwhile, it is hard to find out. For instance, some bad sayings spread well on internet but the police can do nothing to stop them.

As for as I am concerned, I consider that the computer is rather useful. Whether you may be damaged by computers and internet depends on yourself to the core. You would not be hurt if your, eyes were bright enough to tell right from wrong. As for me, I use computers to write articles watch movies and communicate with each other and I do not fancy any computer games. Besides, the Government should focus their attention to protecting teenagers from computer games. At last, I would say that despite the disadvantages still exist now, computers play a very significant part of role in modern life.

专家建议：建议该生多读英语议论文章，揣摩正规议论文的段落内部的逻辑关系是怎样做到严谨合理的，

培养对一件事发表议论的能力。另外，平时应该多练习写作议论文，并在写作过程中要求自己思路清晰，明确自己究竟要写什么，为什么要写这句话，句与句之间到底有没有关系，有什么关系。希望对作者有所帮助。

专家点评：本文结构设置清晰明了，词汇及句型句式的运用较为高级和丰富，语法应用也比较准确和多样。不足之处在于本文段落内部逻辑的混乱，句与句之间的逻辑关系更是令读者一头雾水。值得一提的是，本文还多处出现了议论文章的大忌讳，那就是主观猜测出的毫无依据支持的信息以及缺乏客观性的极端信息，希望作者日后避免此类错误。

第五届复赛作文范文Failure and Success

An ancient Chinese adage says, “Failure is the mother of success”. It tells us that failure teaches people how to succeed. Those philosiphers (philosophers) are always right. No one is a winner for life-long, and thus everybody, even the most successful ones, has failed in sake of (for the sake of) various reasons.

The story of Mr. Abraham Lincoln, the previous president of America, offers us a proper example. Mr. Lincoln started his political journey in his early 20 (20s), but the fate tricked him. Among his first ten attempts of running for elections for political positions like (去掉) Senator and (or) the Head of the State, Mr. Lincoln only won once, and then numerous failures stepped up after that. But he never stopped. Finally, in his 50 (50s), Mr. Lincoln became the president of America. His failures led to his success. All the valuable experiences, including the mistakes, showed him how to succeed. Then, it is obvious that failure can help not only Mr. Lincoln but also everyone to gain experiences and to avoid mistakes. Thus success comes.

Despite the reason described in the above paragraph, another subtle one also serves to the topic. Failure forces people to explore new means to success. KFC is a case in point. As everybody knows, KFC’s origins were in America, but it was not as successful as McDonald. B ut when KFC came to China, it became popular in one night (overnight). People, especially kids, loved it. KFC has found its new way in China. Situations must be the same to everyone if they explore new things in their failures.

Taking into account all the relevant factors that affect and contribute to the topic, we may safely conclude that, failure, indeed, leads people all the way to success.

第六届复赛作文范文Informal Higher Education Serves Better

Although most students are still fighting for the diploma in universities after graduation from high school, it has been a clear trend that more and more students choose to start their working career earlier and receive informal higher education, which in my opinion, serves better to build more competition (competitive) and suitable personal abilities.

Informal higher education offers better opportunities to adapt to social life for students, and help them understand better the reality of their social community and responsibilities they are to take. Compared with those who spend entirely their time in the (on) campus, students who take evening classes could contact with more people, develop their communication skills and social behaviors during working hours. They know better how cruel and realistic the society is and that it is your power and capabilities that only speak. They understand and adapt better to the pressure of life’s difficulties which in universities could hardly be realized.

Secondly, after experiencing real working life, these (those) who attend correspondence courses would know better what kind of knowledge and abilities they must master, which definitely help them in future advancement and career choices. Suppose you’re a graduate from high school and become an assist of a car repairing workshop. Then you’ll have to know how the engine and

different parts of the car works and how to deal with various crisises (emergent problems). Therefore, night schools’ education (evening classes) would enable you (插入 to) acquire more specialized knowledge which are fit to you. However, in universities, you have to learn a great many courses, some of which are comparatively useless and can even make you bewilded of future (bewildered to the future).

Furthermore, as they have more time to manage for themselves, students drop higher education in universities could earn some money and gain earlier start in career. These will ease their families’ burdens and satisfy their desire for basic money needs. As a matter of fact, nowadays, more than a few American teens abandon university’ s education and try to become a worker like air-conditional repairer (air-conditioner repairman) who can earn as much as $ 30, 000 for the first year. Thus, their decisions benefit themselves and their families.

Conclude (To conclude) from all the facts talked above, we can safely arrive at the summary that informal higher education is more efficient and serves better. It make (makes) you ahead of others in career development with more competitive skills, fit knowledge, precious experiences of social life and more leisure to earn some essential financial supports. As we’ll one day indulge ourselves in the real soci (walk into the realistic society,) informal higher education serves better for our present and future developing. (development)

高中生英语话题作文精选汇编(最新)

【篇一】高中生英语话题作文 In recent years, the forests have been getting smaller and smaller for more and more people cut down trees for money. As trees grow naturally, people don't need to invest anything on them. But cutting down trees has destroyed our nature. We have already seen the bad consequence. For example, we always suffer from the flood and drought disaster; many animals are facing the danger of dying out, because their habitats have been destroyed; deserts are expanding, and sandstorms are emerging. Our environment has been changed from bad to worse due to the reduction of forests. Thus, the government should appeal people that cutting down trees breaks the balance of our nature. Those who continue to cut down trees should be punished severely. 近年来，由于越来越多的人为了赚钱而砍伐树木，森林面积变得越来越小。由于树木是自然生长的，所以人们不需要对它们进行任何投资。但是砍伐树木破坏了我们的自然环境。我们已经看到了不好的后果了。例如，我们总是遭受水灾和旱灾；许多动物因栖息地被破坏正面临灭绝的危险；沙漠范围正在扩大；沙尘暴也在崭露头角。由于森林面积的减少，我们的环境已经变得越来越糟糕。因此，政府应该呼吁人们砍伐树木会破坏我们的自然平衡。那些继续砍伐树木的人应该受到严惩。 【篇二】高中生英语话题作文 Almost everyone wants to live a long life, but longevity is not for all people. It is reported that most long life people are in villages, far away from big cities. In village, life is closer to nature. The sky there is clear and pretty; the air is fresh; the water is clean; and the food they eat are natural, without any chemicals. Besides, those villages are abundant in green trees, beautiful flowers, fresh fruit, and wild animals, which can evoke people's passions for life. Moreover, the living pace in those villages is rather slow. People suffer less stress than cities’. Thus, they have more freedom to enjoy what they like. No wonder that most villagers are strong and healthy. If I become old someday, I would like to move to village to enjoy a more comfortable and pleasant life. 几乎每个人都想要长寿，但并不是所有人都可以长寿的。据报道，长寿的人多住在远离大城市的农村。在乡村，生活更接近自然。那里的天空晴朗而美丽；空气清新；水是干净的；他们吃的食物是天然的，没有任何化学物质。此外，这些村庄有大量的绿树、美丽的鲜花、新鲜的水果和野生动物，可以唤起人们对生活的热情。此外，这些村庄的生活节奏相当缓慢。人们承受的压力比城市小。因此，他们有更多的自由去享受他们喜欢的东西。难怪大多数乡村里的人都是身体健康的。如果有一天我老了，我也想搬到农村去享受更舒适和愉快的生活。

创新英语作文竞赛范文 【篇一：创新英语大赛获奖作文】 best motivation and reward before you hit the roads to achieve a goal, have you ever given any thought to your motivation or what are you expecting to get as a reward? attitudes towards this question vary from person to person. some people claim that wealth and fame is the best motivation and reward, others believe that the fulfillment of a job well done is its own reward. in my opinion, the later point holds more water. in the end, it is the joy in the journey that truly matters. doing the work with the attempt to be rich or famous will bring an unfortunate outcome and even will lead us to a dangerous situation. gradually, we will consider wealth and fame as the most important things in our lives instead of the care of our parents, or our ‘friends-time’. besides, this kind of thoug ht might have bad effects on our work, since we only care about how much money we earn or how to get as many glories as we can, we may tend to forget the original significance of doing the job and can’t concentrate our minds on doing the job well. thus our work efficiency will be reduced and it is unlikely that we can make a great development in our own career. what’s worse, once we fail to get or lose all those glories or wealth, we may feel rather depressed, empty and even sink into a desperate situation. however, if we change our train of thought and attach more importance to the sense of happiness and fulfillment by accomplishing some simple things, our life will become more wonderful. we won’t get tired of our work and we will be courageous enough to overcome all the obstacle on our road and enjoy the abundant happiness that the job brings to us. every workday is like a journey full of surprise and delight. besides, without the burden of wealth or fame, we can immerge ourselves into the job and there is a good chance that we can achieve a lot. in this case, although we don’t aim for wealth and fame, wealth and fame will follow naturally. if not, we will not feel discouraged, as we firmly

The Significance of Having A Purpose in Life 赵浚洲四川省平昌中学高一十七班指导教师吴昌荣with regard to life’s purpose, it is indisputable that having a purpose in your life has long been recognized as an important element in enabling humans to dispose of adversity and live with greater satisfaction. As John F. Kennedy puts it,”Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction.” As far as I am concerned, a purpose in life plays an irreplaceable and vital role in your road to success. In the following context, I am going to justify my perspective from several aspects. To start with, there is no denying that having life's purpose can change the quality of your life. People often find that when they have discovered their life's purpose and begun to live by it, their lives take on greater meaning and authenticity. They report feeling less fragmented. They feel less overwhelmed by the complexities of modern living. Their course is clearer, their decision-making easier. Furthermore, having life's purpose provides you with unique motivation to live your life in a certain way. Your life purpose should be powerful and compelling enough to drive you forward--to lead you into activities that reflect this passion. Regarding senior high school students, all of you should set a great and ambitious life’s purpose and strive to pursue it with fervent passion. Otherwise, you would become degenerate and mediocre, at the same time, and couldn’t discover the meaning of your life. Eventually, having your life's purpose can give direction to your life, and help you figure out where to focus your energy, time and money. Provided that you often find yourself fluttering about your life from one fad to the next, you lack a directional focus. As Seneca says,“When a man does not know what harbor he is making for, no wind is the right wind”. Accordingly, a purpose serves as a lighthouse that guides you direction to navigate through the stormy waters. Even though you confront various setbacks and difficulties, you will spare no efforts to pursue your ideal and you will not be at a loss. In a nutshell, I can naturally draw a reasonable conclusion that success comes about as a corollary to embracing your purpose. Therefore, it is high time that you were aware of the significance of purpose in your life.

试）；测试合格在录取时可享受降分优惠，高校将向社会公示获得自主选拔录取资格的考生名单；预选上的考生，按照当地招办要求填报自主招生志愿，且高考成绩须达到该校规定的水平；自主选拔录取人数一般不超过试点高校当年本科招生计划总数的5%，且不占用试点高校当年在当地投放的招生计划；生源质量好的部分高校自主招生比例不设定5%的上限。 二、选择适合自己的高校 到现在为止，共有76所试点高校面向全国进行自主招生。如果你想参加自主招生，一定要在这些学校中选择最适合自己的。怎么选呢，考生首先要对自己有个正确的定位和评价，自身的实力和水平是否适合参加，一味盲目的报考只会增加考生的负担。 这里说的正确定位和评价的意思是根据自己的实力，挑选和自己成绩相匹配的高校，不要冲太高，也不要就低。如果憧憬太高，就算拿到降分优惠，高考成绩若达不到要求一样不能被录取；如果选择的学校比自己平时成绩还低很多，也浪费了自主招生的降分的优势。 可以选择那些冲一冲就能够到学校，例如正常发挥条件下裸分成绩排名达不到，算上自主招生加分可以考入；或者凭裸分成绩排名刚好能考入的学校，选择更好的专业，自主招生优惠算是一种保障。 在数量上可以有目标的多选几所院校，也有人建议选两三所，至于选几所都无妨，重要的是要拉开档次，这样至少能保证通过一所或两所高校的初审。另外，可以了解一下所在中学在自己目标院校的录取率，如果某校通过率不高的话，应理性地选择。无论如何做，最好先确定自己的目标院校。 三、细读高校自主招生简章 每年在10月底~11月，各自主招生试点高校都会针对自主招生发布新一年的简章或者章程。所以，确定好目标院校的考生家长，一定要仔细阅读该校的章程或简章。 自主招生简章主要包括关键几项：报名条件；报名方式；选拔程序；录取规则等。因为各高校自主招生选拔的条件不同，如重要的截止时间；笔试、面试时间地点；考试科目；申报材料的要求；自荐信规格（打印签名还是手写）等重要的信息细节，每一个细节都不要忽视，这里要提醒考生家长特别注意！例如，2012年人大的自主招生简章中就要求《个人申请》由考生本人手书。 往年常会有因错过报名截止时间、缴费时间、未按照要求提交申报材料等原因和心仪高校失之交臂的情况出现。 四、精心准备申请材料 向学校递交申请材料是自主招生过程中一个很重要的环节。申请材料通常包括报名表、自荐信、推荐资料、获奖证书复印件、高中成绩以及其他附属材料等。获奖证书可以是考生在高中阶段获得的各种奖励证书。个人陈述主要是让高校更加了解你，内容可以是你参与的一次重要活动、取得的成绩，还可以介绍自己在大学期间的计划等。组织申请材料时需注意一定按高校要求填写。 另外，这里要说一下，学生最好能拿到所在中学的校荐，“校荐名额”比个人自荐的机会大得多。一般“自荐”比例只占初选通过的不到20%，而“校荐”通过初选获得资格的占95%，获得校荐名额基本等同于初选成功。但并不是学校在推荐信上盖了章就算“校荐”，因为所有

11 Directions:Would you expect a “thank you” when you give your seat to an old man, or a woman with her baby? How do you feel if they take your seat without even taking a look at you? Would you be angry? You are given 60 minutes to state your view on the topic within less than 300 words. You can add a title by yourself. “Thank you”—a powerful gift Recently, some individuals would not give their seats to the old or the pregnant as the result of no reaction given back. Naturally, problems arouses: Must we demand a “thank you”when we give a seat to others? As my opinion, a “thank you” is both beneficial to the seat sharers and the ones who take the seat. A smile and a “thank you”paid back can promote the phenomenon of giving seats and enhance the moral value of the society. The first time I gave my seats to a pregnant and she smiled to me saying “thank you”. That time I felt the flower of my heart come out and bloomed .So I kept on doing that until an old lady once stared at me without saying a word when I gave my seat to her. I felt as if I would never do that again and got off of the bus. Apparently, the simple smile and words motivate people to do more moral things for the ones needing help while everyone is longing for a “thanks”when they do things for you. Your reactions are really important to others. If we are ignored by the ones who take your seat, do not be sad and keep on doing the things we think are right. We might be disappointed ,or even sad, when we are ignored as our own view. But have you ever thought that the impolite actions might be reasonable? Maybe those individuals were in a bad mood and did not tend to talk to anyone else. Or maybe they just got some bad news of their body and were extremely week so that they could not make an reaction. Standing in others view can always alleviate our disappointment on them and encourage us to keep on the good things. We should always believe that the world ,with our positive outlook and action, will be increasingly beautiful and warm and advance morally. In conclusion, we should continue to give seats to others and give others a thank you and a smile when they do the same to us. Like the saying : “Giving others roses and the scent will remain.”Let’s make our slightest action as a gift to others and contribute to a happier world positively. 10 Directions: Chinese people always have the tradition of helping others; regardless of a friend or a stranger. However, in recent years, people find that when they try to help others, some changes are taking places. One of the most common examples is that, a passer-by who sent an injured senior people to hospital would be very likely to be recognized as the accident-maker. This kind of events is being rerun again and again. When trapped in the dilemma of tradition and trouble, what would be your choice?
