2017年英语高考试题全国一卷(实用20篇)

一、几点重要原则

1.智者利用押题，傻子依赖押题!

2.书面表达整篇背诵绝无必要，可以以看读为主，关键是从中汲取一些常用的词汇和表达，并能得体熟练地运用。考场上应变能力很重要!

3.英文写作模仿很重要。有时也很有效。但不能过于牵强，尤其是对一些长难句的刻意模仿使用。

4.文似看山不喜平，起承转合一定要有!

5.“见微知著，一叶知秋”，几个亮点足矣：有道是：浓妆淡抹总相宜，作文写得简洁到位要比长篇大论更显功力。

6.心不为形役。不要身陷逐字逐句“英汉对号”式的字面翻译，要把表达的主动权始终握在自己手里。

二、善用万能句以不变应万变

历届高考，书面表达考得最多是提示作文，即提供一定的情景内容，要求考生完成100词左右的短文。

从命题方式看，有短文提示、要点提示、图画提示、情景提示以及图表提示等；体裁以应用文为主，记叙文为辅：题材为广大中学生所熟悉的日常生活。从提供要点的情景方面看，历届高考书面表达题均属供料小作文，采用文字供料或文字说明加图画(图表)的方式供料。

备考时，同学们要利用有限的时间把以前背的范文整理一下，从中选出不同体裁、不同题材的范文各一篇(范文以高考真题的高分作文为佳)，把它们重新记忆，一定记牢。这样，高考时不管什么样的文章都可套用背诵好的格式。避免考场上因紧张而无章可循。

最后阶段，还要总结一下写作时常用且能出彩的固定句型、句式，比如强调句型、定语从句、名诃性从句等，牢记英语的五个基本句式，背诵平时老师总结的万能句。以不变应万变。

考场答题前，应仔细审题，研究所提供的文字和图画(图表)材料和作文要求。分析、提炼要点，理顺要点，确立基本的写作思路，不要忽略任何一个词。关键的词更不能遗漏，构思好写几个方面，缺一不可。

写作时，尽量用学过的英语句型和词组。少写长句和复杂句以免弄巧成拙、漏洞百出。但目前高考有关书面表达的评分标准要求作文中应有“较多的语法结构和词汇”，因此同学们在书面表达中不能都写小句、短句和单句，还要正确运用高级词汇和复杂结构。恰当运用过渡词，使写出来的文章含金量更高，更具可读性。

三、高分作文六大特性

1.条理性。指的是合理安排文章结构。首先，在文章思路、组织材料、叙述顺序等方面要有一定的条理性。其次。根据需要，安排好段落，各段之间要层次分明，也要重视每一段的开头和结尾，开头语往往是总起句，结尾语往往是总结句。

2.准确性。指要求写出语法正确的句子，包括时态、语态、用词和句法等，要准确、地道地表达。必须要牢牢掌握一些常用句型或习惯表达，避免中式英语，在实践中不断总结中英用法的差异，养成用英语思维写作的习惯。

3.流畅性。指根据整篇文章思想的需要，有效采用不同的连接手段，使文章层次清楚、行文连贯。

4.简洁多样性。简洁性就是语言简洁，不重复。多样性就是能随情景内容的变化写出句式多样的语句。这也是新课程标准对写作的评价标准。

5.思想性。新标准对写作的要求，增加了情感因素，在准确流畅表达写作要点的同时，适当增加句子的感情色彩，增加一些人情味，使文章读起来更亲切，完全达到与读者进行交流的目的。

6.美观性。指的是卷面书写规范、清楚、干净、整洁。

四、怎样才能有‘拽”的感觉

1.高考写作的实质——变相考查句型与词汇的灵活应用

英语写作不同于语文作文的写作，如果说语文作文是一个自由发挥的舞蹈，那么高考英语写作就是带着枷锁在跳舞。我之所以这样来形容，是因为高考英语写作的内容都已经通过文字、表格、图片这三种形式给定，内容方面，不需要学生进行发挥，大家所需要发挥的就是不要老去给这个不变的内容穿毫无变化的校服(简单句)，而要去穿一些不一样的衣服，让它显得不那么单调，让阅卷老师能看到不同，而那些所谓的衣服也就是多变句型与词汇。

2.写作的评分标准——怎么去迎合评卷老师的胃口

我了解到目前很大一部分学生的作文都处在15分左右，写作满分25分，15分也就是个及格分，那么15分和20多分的作文到底差在哪里?这个问题很容易回答。15分的作文中规中矩，该对的都对，包括内容要点的完整，语法与词形的正确，但是全都是简单句子的堆砌，没有任何亮点。而20多分的作文在句型词汇方面就做了很好的包装，它的句子穿的衣服已经不是校服，而是李宁、耐克，或者是阿迪，所以让人觉得很“拽”，而高考英语写作要的就是这种很“拽”的感觉。

3.写作提分的三要素——句型。连词。高级词汇

句子是我们写作文最大的单位。有了漂亮的句子。用好的连词将其连句成段，再加上一些如星星般亮点词汇的点缀，一篇好的高考英语作文就诞生了。而这三个因素中最容易把握的是句子，最难的是高级词汇，限于大家的词汇还比较有限。一篇文章中出现那么一两个就够了。我们应该把重心放在句型上，因为这个最容易把握。

但是大家又有这样的困惑，学校里老师也给了我们很多的句型啊，动辄成五十上百句的，大家背得挺多，但是面对考试的时候，发现背的那些怎么也用不上。其实不是那些东西没有用，而是它们太干了，就好比一根干骨头，大家嚼起来很没有味。也不知道该把它们往哪里放。

在这里我给大家提供一种比较切实可行、迅速提高的练习方法，在接下来的时间里只要大家按照这个方法来，就一定会有收获。

找出历年真题，一周只需要写两篇。但是要这么来写。

1.把你要写的内容要点用九到十句的汉语表达出来。

2.逐一地进行翻译，不是用简单句。而是要刻意地去想：

(1)可以用什么样的复杂句；

(2)怎样去避开不会的表达，转义。

例如：

这本书是如此的有趣，以至于我读了一遍又一遍。

1.This book was so interest，ing that l read it again and again，

2.This was such an interest，ing book that l read it again andagain，

3.This was s0 jnteresting abook that l read it again and a—gain

4.So interesting was thisbook that l read it again and a—gain

这四句译文当中无疑评卷老师最欣赏的是第四句，因为它用了倒装。

高考英语满分作文 Air

Air

Air is all around us. Its around us as we walk and play. From the time we were born, air was around us on every side. When we sit down, it is around us. We live in air.

All living things need air. Living things cant live without air. We can go without food or water for a few days but we cant live for more than a few minutes without air. We take in air. When we are working or running, we need more air. When we are asleep, we need less air.

We live in air, but we can not see it.

We can only feel it. We can feel it when it is moving. Moving air is called wind. How can you make air move? Here is one way. Hold an open book in your hands in front of you. Close it quickly. What can you feel? What you feel is the air.

空气

空气包围着我们，当我们走路和玩耍的时候，它在我们周围。从我们诞生之日起，空气就在我们周围了。当我们坐下时，它在我们身边。我们生活在空气中。

所有生物都需要空气，没有空气生物就不能生存。没有水和食物，我们可以生存几天，但是没有空气几分钟我们都无法生存。我们吸进空气。当我们工作或跑步时，需要较多空气。当我们睡着时，需要的空气会少一些。

我们生活在空气中，但我们看不见它。

我们只能感觉到。当空气运行时，我们可以感觉到它。运动的空气形成风。你怎样使空气运动呢?有一种办法，手中拿一本展开的书放在面前，快速合上书，你能感觉到什么?你感觉到的就是空气。

Good to Enhance Our Social Experience 增长社会经验

Nowadays,social experience has increasingly been put into a significant position in jobhunting. As the result, some people advocate that college students should enhance their social experience instead of putting emphasis on academic studyonly. And I am in favor of the above view that it is good to enhance our social experience.

如今，社会经验在找工作中已被放在一个越来越重要位置。因此，有些人认为大学生应该加强他们的社会经验而不是只注重学术研究。我同意上述观点，提高我们的社会经验是好的。

There are a few reasons accounting for my opinion. First of all, there is no denying that social experience makes a great contribution to our job hunting because we are usually asked to tell these experiences or information when seeking jobs.In addition, enhancing social experience is a good way to increase our knowledge and broaden our horizon. The more social experience we collect, the easier for us to understand various people and things. What is more, it is also beneficial for seeking our interest and choosing our occupation. These experiences we have collected will offer information and direction for our choice in occupation and friendship establishment.

我的观点的几个原因。首先，不可否认的是，社会经验为我们找工作做出了很大贡献因为在我们找工作的时候经常要求讲述这些经验或信息。此外，增加社会经验是增加我们的知识，开阔我们视野的好方法。我们获得更多的社会经验，我们就更容易了解不同的人和事物。更重要的是，它也有利于我们寻找兴趣和选择自己的职业。我们获得的这些经验在择业和建立友谊中会为我们提供信息和方向。

Therefore,it is good and wise to enhance our social experience. As college students, we should grasp each chance to exercise ourselves and experience various things aswell as try some new things so that we can understand various people and the society better.

因此，提高我们的社会经验是好的，明智的。作为大学生，我们应该抓住每个机会来锻炼自己并经历各种各样的事情，以及尝试一些新的东西，这样我们可以更好的了解不同的人和社会。

In recent yearsRecently,more and more students have studied hard to go to universityies.（Its actually better for you to use the present continuous tense here coz ur trying to explain a well known concept）. However,universities always have some limitations tofor students,like the number of students??.So in that case some students often loselost their chances to accept their educationgetting college education.This phenomenon is quite serious.Its a real problem.In our lifeves,we all know that students need to pass the entrance of examination to enter the universityies.,And there are many difficulties may happen.Always it may happen that some talented students missed their chances of getting to entering their imagining dream universityies in the most important test.When it happened,these students may then loset themselves.In addition,it is terrible for them to leave school to obtaintheother knowledge which is not fitting to them.????They could have stayed in their universities which they wanted to go all along but they now are wasting their precious life which is the most important time to do other things which they do not like.??On the other hand,our society lost the recourse which they could have given their best??.Future more,it brought some negative things including that students who can not go to universities to master of right views.??In a word,that is why it is justified and necessary for the government to intake expansion in Chinese universities.Its not a word Only in this way, more and more students can achieve their dreams of studying in their imagining universities.And only in this way can our country be richer in knowledge.

吟唱感时花溅泪，遥记恨别鸟惊心，最难逝去是乡情，最易生情是乡音，天涯漂泊多感叹，青春愿为故乡吟，人生路上多驿站，最终落叶也归根。

——题记

有这样一个地方，无论你身在何方，心里总把它牵挂;有这样一个地方，无论你成荣辱，它都想母亲一样把你接纳。有这样一种情节，在黑夜里悄悄升起，又轻轻褪去，留下淡淡的惆怅，轻皱着眉头，静静地怀念;有这样一种情节，在冬天里为你点燃温暖的火把。这个地方叫故乡，这种情怀叫思乡。

独倚栏干，闻着秋风凉爽的气息，望着空中飘零的黄叶，我的心已飞到了故乡。

所谓“上有天堂，下有苏杭，”而我只觉得我的家乡最美。它就是诗人的诗，画家的泼墨丹青，文人的华美词藻。

早晨，天还未亮，天便醒来，拿一把交椅，捧一壶清茶，润一润嗓子，望一望天空，那颜色介于深蓝和黑之间的苍穹，把我的心拿了去，我便感到宇宙的伟大与自己的渺小，自然的安静与美丽。当天空变成蔚蓝，那静静的湖水被白帆弄成五彩的波纹，这时又想起一句诗“闲看庭前花开花落，漫随天上云卷云舒，”多么惬意的生活啊!我想只有在故乡才会体会得最深。

当夕阳西下，点着了挂在西天的柴火，大火便熊熊燃烧，烧红了半边天，如果这时打开窗子，恰有风将土地的香味吹入鼻中，那种感觉无以言传。吃过晚饭，躺在屋顶上，看着鸟儿们一起喊叫着归巢，它们没有迷失和孤独，鸟儿已经归巢。月色已经来到，四周充满了如水的静谧和安详。故乡披上了月亮给它定做的明亮的衣服，在故乡人的眼里显得那样美，那样美。

我略略地抬起头，看见天上繁星点点，那许许多多的小星星就像钉在湛蓝的天幕上似的，眨巴眨巴地闪烁着，耳边聆听着风吹过，心情放松地一塌糊涂。

这，就是一种故乡情怀，唯有故乡才能带给我的妙不可言的感觉!哦，这熟悉的灯，熟悉的河，熟悉的树，熟悉的夜，熟悉的人……

当你把自我的追求、渴望放到人生的最高点，你会发现，没有什么能阻挡你的步伐!没有什么困难能够难倒你。一颗子弹，不会射过自我的最远距离;一杯水，不会大于杯子的容积;一个人的成就，同样也是无法高过自我的梦想!所以，凡是要做大事的人，都必须要有自我的梦想，自我的目标!否则，一切都是空的，都是浮夸罢了!

当你把自我的梦想设立了，却整天只想着白日做梦，天上掉馅饼!那便更是浮夸，没有意义，纸上谈兵!唯有脚踏实地，一步一个脚印，才能够朝自我的梦想迈进!一个人如果仅仅是虚度人生，完全不想着以后做什么，那这个人的一生就是没有前途的，就是浪费的!

为什么是先脚踏实地，后志存高远!就是这个道理，如果你单单是志存高远，那我天大的梦想也可能列举出来，可是你如果不脚踏实地就绝对不可能会做到。

一个想学好数学的人，虽然他可能学不好数学;可是一个不想学好数学的人，却永永远远也不可能学好数学，这就是梦想的力量。

一个记者以往问一个山村里放牛的孩子：“你为什么放牛?”孩子答道：“赚钱”记者又问：“你为什么要赚钱?”孩子回答：“为了娶媳妇。”“你为什么要娶媳妇?”“生娃。”“你生娃后要干什么?”“放牛”……

就是这样，一个人的人生如果不断在同一个起点上轮回，到头来什么也没有，两手空空，一生浑浑噩噩，虚度年华!

而同样也是一个山村里的孩子，他们是双胞胎，看到天上飞的鸽子，就问父亲：“我也能飞吗?”

The Best Kind of Love

i’m young again!” she shouts euberantly.as my friend raves on about her new love, i’ve taken a good look at my old one. my husband of almost 20 years, scott, has gained 15 pounds. once a marathon runner, he now runs only down hospital halls. his hairline is receding and his body shows the signs of long working hours and too many candy bars. yet he can still give me a certain look across a restaurant table and i want to ask for the check and head home.

when my friend asked me “what will make this love last?” i ran through all the obvious reasons: commitment, shared interests, unselfishness, physical attraction, communication. yet there’s more. we still have fun. spontaneous good times. yesterday, after slipping the rubber band off the rolled up newspaper, scott flipped it playfully at me: this led to an all-out war. last saturday at the grocery, we split the list and raced each other to see who could make it to the checkout first. even washing dishes can be a blast. we enjoy simply being together.and there are surprises. one time i came home to find a note on the front door that led me to another note, then another, until i reached the walk-in closet. i opened the door to find scott holding a “pot of gold” (my cooking kettle) and the “treasure” of a gift package. sometimes i leave him notes on the mirror and little presents under his pillow.there is understanding. i understand why he must play basketball with the guys. and he understands why, once a year, i must get away from the house, the kids -and even him -to meet my sisters for a few days of nonstop talking and laughing.

there is sharing. not only do we share household worries and parental burdens - we also share ideas. scott came home from a convention last month and presented me with a thick historical novel. though he prefers thrillers and science fiction, he had read the novel on the plane. he touched my heart when he eplained it was because he wanted to be able to echange ideas about the book after i’d read it.

there is forgiveness. when i’m embarrasssingly loud and crazy at parties, scott forgives me. when he confessed losing some of our savings in the stock market, i gave him a hug and said, “it’s okay. it’s only money.”there is sensitivity. last week he walked through the door with that look that tells me it’s been a tough day. after he spent some time with the kids, i asked him what happened. he told me about a 60-year-old woman who’d had a stroke. he wept as he recalled the woman’s husband standing beside her bed, caressing her hand. how was he going to tell this husband of 40 years that his wife would probably never recover? i shed a few tears myself. because of the medical crisis. because there were still people who have been married 40 years. because my husband is still moved and concerned after years of hospital rooms and dying patients.

there is faith. last tuesday a friend came over and confessed her fear that her husband is losing his courageous battle with cancer. on wednesday i went to lunch with a friend who is struggling to reshape her life after divorce. on thursday a neighbor called to talk about the frightening effects of alzheimer’s disease on her father-in-law’s personality. on friday a childhood friend called long-distance to tell me her father had died. i hung up the phone and thought, this is too much heartache for one week. through my tears, as i went out to run some errands, i noticed the boisterous orange blossoms of the gladiolus outside my window. i heard the delighted laughter of my son and his friend as they played. i caught sight of a wedding party emerging from a neighbor’s house. the bride, dressed in satin and lace, tossed her bouquet to her cheering friends. that night, i told my husband about these events. we helped each other acknowledge the cycles of life and that the joys counter the sorrows. it was enough to keep us going.finally, there is knowing. i know scott will throw his laundry just shy of the hamper every night; he’ll be late to most appointments and eat the last chocolate in the bo. he knows that i sleep with a pillow over my head; i’ll lock us out of the house at a regular basis, and i will also eat the last chocolate.

i guess our love lasts because it is comfortable. no, the sky is not bluer: it’s just a familiar hue. we don’t feel particularly young: we’ve eperienced too much that has contributed to our growth and wisdom, taking its toll on our bodies, and created our memories.i hope we’ve got what it takes to make our love last. as a bride, i had scott’s wedding band engraved with robert browning’s line “grow old along with me!” we’re following those instructions.

“if anything is real, the heart will make it plain.”

[高考英语满分作文欣赏

因为审题不仔细，做题没有看清，粗心马虎等原因造成，这次英语考试没有考好，只考了84分，我感到很抱歉，辜负了老师家长的殷切希望，我以后考试一定会仔细做题目，认真对待每一题，我会更加努力地学习，争取在以后的考试中取得优异的成绩！

这次英语月考之所以没有考好，总结原因如下： 1 平时没有养成细致认真的习惯，考试的时候答题粗心大意、马马虎虎，导致很多题目会做却被扣分甚至没有做对。 2 准备不充分。毛主席说，不打无准备之仗。言外之意，无准备之仗很难打赢，我却没有按照这句至理名言行事，导致这次考试吃了亏。 3 没有解决好兴趣与课程学习的矛盾。自己有很多兴趣，作为一个人，一个完整的人，一个明白的人，当然不应该同机器一样，让自己的兴趣被平白无故抹煞，那样不仅悲惨而且无知，但是，如果因为自己的兴趣严重耽搁了学习就不好了，不仅不好，有时候真的是得不偿失。 失败了怎么办？认真反思是首先的： 第一，这次失败的原因是什么？要认真思考，挖掘根本的原因； 第二，你接下来要干什么？确定自己的目标，不要因为失败不甘心接着走，而是要正确地衡量自己。看看想要什么，自己的优势在什么地方，弱势是什么； 第三，确定目标。明确自己想要的，制定计划。

Since the financial crisis swept the world, the global economy has sunk into a severe recession. It’s hard to get through a day without hearing or reading news about the devastating effects of the crisis: A world of companies go bankrupt, millions of employees are laid off, high-return investment bubbles burst, and huge sums of loans can never be retrieved. Its impact on our daily life can be felt in all walks of life。

College students inevitably fall victim to this pervasive slump as well. On top of that, internships and job vacancies are reduced to the minimum as companies keep shrinking. New graduates find themselves hard to get a job, not to speak of a satisfactory one. What comes next? Poor students will be hard-pressed if they find student loans unavailable any more. As a result, some even cannot afford to continue their studies. Lastly, more students are probably out there anxiously looking for part-time jobs now that they have to help cover their expenses in this gloomy economy. Their innocence and eagerness might be taken advantage of by some malicious businesspeople, or even criminal gang。

In response to these threats, we students must act promptly and wisely. Since we definitely will be facing a competitive job market, it’s crucial that we submit high quality resumes. Therefore, we must commit more to our professional studies. Even do better, master more relevant job skills as a double security. Furthermore, apply for scholarships and grants, as these are still available and we don’t have to pay them back. As for the safety issues, trust our instinct – there’s no free lunch in this world. Anything that promises quick returns without much work is a sure trap. Stay alert and protect ourselves。

So many children take what their parents do for them for granted, they

haven’t realized the meaning of being grateful. So they always get angry with

their parents, because they don’t get what they want. According to the news that

a little girl went out of the house and refused to go home because her parents

did not give her enough pocket money. I was so shocked to hear it, I would never

ask much from my parents, because I knew they were not easy to make a living and

I am always feel so thankful for what they offer me. Even the one who gives me a

hand when I am in need, I would remember him and when I have the chance, I will

return. A grateful heart makes us a kind person and create a harmonious

environment.

"Let me not be ashamed.Let not my enemies triumph over me.

别让我蒙羞,别让敌人在我身上奏响凯歌

Blessed be the Lord my strength,which teaches my hands to war

主是我的力量,他教会我的手战争

and my fingers to fight

他教会我的手指战斗

My goodness and my fortress.My high tower and deliverer.

我的善良和避难所.是我的高塔和解脱者

My shield and He in whom I trust.

他是我的盾牌,我所依靠的"

In most schools and colleges the examination is used as a chief means of deciding whether a student succeeds or fails in mastering a particular subject. Although it does the job quite efficiently， its side effects are also enormous.

The most undesirable effect is that examinations encourage bad study habits. As the examination score is the only criterion for his academic performance， a student is driven to memorize mechanically rather than to think creatively. Examinations do not motivate a student to seek more knowledge， but to restrict his reading; they do not enable him to study consistently throughout the semester， but to induce cramming during exam week.

Examinations also lower the standards of teaching. Since teachers themselves are often judged by examination results， they are often judged by examination results， they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques. And no subjects can be taught successfully merely through being approached with intent to take examinations.

Actually， few of us admit that examinations can contribute anything really important to the students academic development. If thats the case， why cant we make a change and devise something more efficient and reliable than examinations?

在大多数学校和学院考试作为主要手段,判断一个学生成功与否掌握某一特定主题。虽然它确实工作很有效,其副作用也是巨大的。

最不受欢迎的影响是,考试鼓励不好的学习习惯。考试分数是为他的学业成绩的唯一标准,学生是驱动的机械记忆而不是创造性地思考问题。考试不能促使学生去追求更多的知识,而是限制他阅读;他们不让他持续在整个学期学习,但是在考试周诱导填鸭式。

考试也降低教学标准。因为教师本身往往通过考试成绩来判断,他们往往通过考试成绩来判断,减少训练他们的学生考试技巧。没有对象可以教成功仅仅通过与意图接近考试。

事实上,我们很少有人承认考试可以贡献任何学生的学术发展非常重要。如果是这样,为什么我们不能做出改变,设计出比考试更有效、更可靠的东西?

时光如水，人生易逝，转眼间红颜成白发。因此，需要我们珍惜时光，不忘初心，奋发有为。“远山，在静默里翻涌，寻觅着自己的高度。湖泊，在水流的静止中，思量他自己的深渊。”泰戈尔的这段话令人深思，我们要不忘初心，提升生命的厚度。

“古之有立大事者，不惟有超世之才，亦必有坚韧不拔之志。”苏轼的这句话告诉我们，只有不忘初心，才能成就大事。翻开浩如烟海的历史画册，那些因不忘初心而光彩熠熠的人，着实令人钦敬。

成功的人生不可能离开初心。不忘初心，才会有水滴石穿的精神，永不间断的前行。捐款老人张纪清，不忘初心，一个善良的背影，汇入茫茫人海。他用中国人熟悉的两个字，掩盖半生的秘密。他是红尘中的隐者，平凡的老人，朴素的心愿，清贫的.生活，高贵的心灵。炎黄不是一个名字，是一脉香火，为我们点燃。他之所以有如此的成就，正是因为他不忘初心，并为此而不惜代价，勇往直前。

我们看重初心，是因为它能成就我们。不忘初心，就有了前进的方向，就会为此而奋斗。守墓老兵陈俊贵，不忘初心，只为风雪之夜一次生死相托，你守住誓言，为我们守住心灵的最后阵地。洒一碗酒，那碗里是岁月峥嵘；敬一个礼，那是士兵最真的情义。雪下了又融，草黄了又青，你种在山顶的松，岿然不动。试想，若非不忘初心，他何以赢得人生的丰富多彩？

初心是我们人生必须学习的必修课。正确对待初心，可以让我们看到未来，看到希望，看到远方。大漠“猎鹰”木拉提·西日甫江，不忘初心，钢的意志，铁的臂膀，每天都在与死亡的狂沙较量。危险无处不在，他用胸膛作盾牌；为了同胞的安宁，他选择了翱翔。高飞的猎鹰，他绝不孤独，因为身后是人民。假如他不忘初心，就不可能取得如此辉煌的成就。

初心是一种美，具有极强的魅力，你要拥有它，就能使青春永葆。歌德说过：“你若要喜爱你自己的价值，你就得给世界创造价值。”只有不忘初心，才能给世界创造价值。愿我们着眼未来，不忘初心。做到这一点，方能赢得鲜花与掌声，登上光辉的顶峰。

当香蕉皮躺在人行道上时，总有人把它拾起;当有怀着宝宝的妈妈走上车时，总有人已经准备好了座位;当听见有因为嘴馋卡在树上的喵喵声时;总有人停下来帮它解围……这些场景每天都发生在我们身边，你已经不再感到好奇，也无需好奇，只是一份温暖流过心间。这是一种善良，不经意间，已经外露。

人之初，性本善。古圣人早已为我们解释了这种奇妙的现象。善来自本心，即使你说你很冷漠，你也曾在别人无助的时候投出过坚定的眼神;即使你说你很自私，你也曾在别人困窘时伸出过一双温暖的手;即使你说你没有行过善，你也曾在街上投下过一枚小小的硬币。因为善来自本心，很小的事就可以体现，小到连自己都察觉不到，你也未曾思量过有所回报，只一份温暖流过，来自本心，已不足为奇。

一直被这样一个故事感动着：一个越狱的犯人又饿又渴，来到了一个水果摊前，摊主是位老婆婆，看见这穷囧的人，动了恻隐之心，二话不说拿起两个又红又大的苹果塞给这人。接下来的两天情况依然如此。就在一天的生意结束之后，老婆婆在收摊的时候发现了一张通缉令，那人不是别人，正是她送苹果的乞人。摊主报了警。就在犯人再次出现的时候被一举抓获了。没有怨恨亦没有惊恐，反而是欣慰的笑。而老婆婆得到了十万元的赏金……

老婆婆的善良不仅唤醒了一颗迷失的心，也保全了自己，并得到了一笔意外之财。善良也许就是有这样神奇的功能，也许是不经意的，也许看上去微不足道，但无形间它已经改变了很多。

不要对这个社会失去信心，不要说善良难求。善良时时刻刻都在，存在于每个角落。小悦悦走后批评、愤怒、自我检讨的同时不要忘记还有个陈阿姨，彭宇案后怀疑、惊恐、忐忑的背后仍然还有不顾一切后果搀扶老人的大学生。

善良来自本心，不要吝惜你的善良，从心而动，尽情挥洒。这个世界会因为你的不经意更加美丽。

“下午第一节课全年级英语抽测！”一大早，英语老师就来到教室告诉了我们这个重大消息。

“啊，又来考啊！”我们班马上就沸腾了，突击检查是老师的常用伎俩，但这么大的考试还是第一次。俗话说得好，“考考考，老师的法宝；分分分，学生的命根。”我们怎能不紧张呢？所以只好抓紧时间复习。由于是教育局抽测，所以肯定会很难。

眨眼间就到了下午，抽测开始了。果不其然，题目难得不得了，光是听力，就有了三道题不确定。第一大题的第4小题，我本来选的是“A”live，可是一会儿后，我觉得不对，便改成了“C”like。还有一道题是“foot”和“food”，我最后选择了“A”foot。还有别的题……天啊，这也太难了！此时的我，只好蒙几题了。唉，这题到底是什么答案呀？我怎么感觉不对呢？到了后面，题目简单了一点，我就披荆斩棘写完了试卷。抽测结束，试卷被收了上去，我心中仿佛有十块大石头悬在上空。

第二天，成绩下来了。我考了99分，错的那一分就是那道改过的听力题，答案是A，而我居然把对的A改成了C，就这样与满分擦肩而过了。但幸运的是，英语我还是再次考了全年级第一。我心头的那块大石头终于落地了。

虽然这次英语考试很突然，我也取得了不错的成绩。但我真的不喜欢这样的抽测啊！

汉族又名华夏族，是中国的主体民族，为上古时期黄帝部落和炎帝部落的后裔，即炎黄子孙。汉族还是一个在历史上从未中断过的、悠久的民族，也是世界上人口最多的民族。

据先秦文献的记载与夏、商、周立都范围，汉族的远古先民大体以西起陇山、东至泰山的黄河中、下游为活动地区;主要分布在这一地区的仰韶文化和龙山文化这两个类型的新石器文化，为汉族远古先民的文化遗存。这两个文明为华夏文明圈的代表。

汉族的祖先黄帝和炎帝在中原为争夺部落联盟首领而爆发了阪泉之战，炎帝部落战败，并入黄帝部落，炎黄联盟初具雏形。后来他们在涿鹿之战中打败了东夷集团的九黎族首领蚩尤，把联盟势力扩大至今日的山东境内。后又以炎帝部落和黄帝部落为主体，与山东境内的部分东夷部落组成了更庞大的华夏部落联盟，华夏族源基本固定。公元前2100～前770年黄河中下游黄帝集团的后裔先后建立了夏朝、商朝、周朝。

前221年，秦统一中国，华夏族又从分裂走向统一。汉族先秦时期自称华夏，从汉朝开始又逐渐出现“汉”的自称。因此，华夏族有了另一个名字：汉。但原先的称谓“华夏”并没有消失，而是与“汉”这个称谓一起使用至今。

根据复旦大学的基因研究对照历史迁移记录，汉民族的扩张主因是历史上的由北往南的人口移动。在晋朝以前汉族主要分布于中国北方，随后因永嘉之乱等因素大举向南迁徙，南迁汉族则和与汉族基因及语言相异的中国南方原住民混居。这历史上由北往南的大规模移动也改变了南北人口分布密度。
