高考英语作文素材：元旦的来历（汇编20篇）

Film Is Giving Way to TV

There are fewer film-goers now than before. The number of TV-watchers has been increasing. In 1975, there were only 5,000 TV-watchers and in 1985, the number increased 20 times. The increase is due to the development of TV industry. With the development of economy, people are richer than before and many families can afford to buy color TV sets. People would prefer to stay at home to watch TV rather than go out to see a film.

Although film is giving way to TV, there are still some people who like watching films not only because good films are not shown on TV but because film has its own advantage.

上国画课，教授说：“画柳，要表现顺风的美;画松，要表现逆风的美;画牛，要顺风而走;画马，要逆风而奔。”

“那么画人呢?”学生问。

“王维低吟‘请留盘石上，垂钓将已矣’时的安闲之态以顺风为佳;文天祥高歌‘风檐展书读，古道照颜色’时的浩然之气以逆风为好.”

“有没有又顺又逆的?”

“陶渊明的‘登东皋以舒啸，临清流而赋诗’，前一句逆风，后一句顺风。”

“人在顺风和逆风中的表现，有没有什么当然的道理可以依循?”

“风大时，要表现逆的风骨;风小时，要表现顺的悠然。”

读完这个故事，我豁然开朗。我们行走在人生之路上，一路雨雪霏霏，一路杨柳依依。在雨雪中展现风骨，似寒梅，傲雪欺霜，这样的风骨必冰清玉洁，无物可摧;在春风中自悠然，似杨柳，翻转舞蹈，这样的悠然必明净澄澈，闲适淡泊。来吧，朋友!微微笑，把握风向标，找准自己的方向，用逆风中塑造出来的愈来愈坚实的风骨，用顺风中滋养出来的愈来愈明朗的悠然，心游万仞，游走于天地之间。

2014年11月4号，第六届全国数控技能决赛开幕式在北京工业技师学院举行。在会场，一个看起来很沉稳的男孩代表决赛选手进行宣誓，他就是周浩。2008年，周浩高考660多分，他听从父母的意见报考了北京大学生命科学专业，但从小喜欢“捣鼓东西”的他，对该专业毫无兴趣。3年前，他毅然从北京大学退学，转学到北京工业技师学院，周浩谈起当年的决定时坚定地说：“我毫不后悔，很庆幸当时的选择。”

现在就对周浩做出人生成败的评价为时过早，但周浩的确是个有思想有主见的人。从选择北大到放弃北大，是一次匪夷所思的抉择，从放弃北大到就读技校，却是一次凤凰涅槃般的跨越，他跨越了唯父母之命是从的桎梏，抵达灵魂自由舒展的彼岸。恭喜周浩，在这个人云亦云，把父母兴趣当做自己兴趣的时代，他把握了人生的风向标，放歌人生，走出了一条专属“周浩”的“星光大道”。

每个人的人生都是独一无二的，我们要做的只是倾听自己内心的呐喊，找准人生的方向，一步步朝着那颗北斗星前行，哪怕备受争议，哪怕忍受孤独，哪怕荆棘遍布。

子曰：“闲哉回也!一单食，一瓢饮，在陋巷，人不堪其忧，回也不该其乐。闲哉回也!”孔子在古代便十分看重弟子养成朴素的道德品质，可见朴素自古以来便是人优秀的道德品质之一，我们要重视培养朴素的道德品质。那三个进商店买饮料的人，都只是为了解渴而已，为什么要讲究什么口味呢!由这件小事便可看出他们的道德修养。我们要重视培养朴素的道德品质，从身边的小事做起，提高自身道德修养，为社会做出贡献。

朴素的道德品质要从小培养，任何人都不可能生下来就有良好的道德品质，需要从小开始培养。司马光小时侯，有一次穿了亲戚送的丝织鞋，被父亲发现后训斥了一顿，从此养成他朴素的道德品质，最后取得了巨大的成就。可见，朴素的道德品质需要从小培养。我们也要重视培养朴素的道德品质，成为一个有道德修养的人，为社会做出贡献。

朴素的道德品质是成功的内在条件。古往今来取得巨大成就的伟人，都具有朴素的道德品质。文学巨人托尔斯泰平时衣着朴素，穿得像个农民，有一次他到贵族学校找女儿，学校都不让他进去，就是这样朴素的道德品质让他登上文学的颠峰，获得了人们的敬意。我们也要像他学习这种朴素的道德品质，形成良好的道德修养，成为一个对社会有用的人，为社会做出贡献。

朴素的道德品质是民族兴盛的必要条件。一个民族的兴盛与否取决于这个民族的道德修养，而朴素的道德品质是其中重要部分之一。德国人民拥有朴素的道德品质，冬天为了避免猫进出时间过长而引起暖气浪费，便把猫的尾巴给弄断了。正是从一件件小事中体现出来的朴素的道德品质让德意志民族兴盛。中华民族要实现民族复兴，也必须重视培养朴素的道德品质，我们要从身边小事做起，培养自己朴素的道德品质，提高自己的道德修养，为中华民族的崛起而奋斗。

朴素是优秀的道德品质，是成功的内在条件，我们要从小重视培养朴素的道德品质，养成良好的道德修养，为中华民族的崛起贡献自己的一份力量。

１、我愿为你拆一座亭子 美国政治家福克斯有一次受邀参加大学的演讲，大学生问他：“你在从政的道路上有没有撒过谎？”福克斯说：“不，从来没有。” 大学生在下面窃窃私语，有的还轻声笑出声来，因为每一个政客都会这样表白。 福克斯并不恼，他对大学生说：“孩子们，在这个社会上，也许我很难证明自己是个诚实的人，但是你们应该相信这个世界上还有诚实，它永远都在我们的周围。我想讲一个故事。” 有一位父亲是位绅士。有一天，他觉得园中的那座旧亭子应该拆了，而他的孩子对拆亭子很感兴趣，孩子对父亲说：“爸爸，我想看看怎么拆掉这座旧亭子，等我从寄宿学校放假回来再拆好吗？” 父亲答应了。孩子上学后，工人却很快把旧亭子拆了。 孩子放假回来后，对父亲说：“爸爸，你对我撒谎了。你说过的，那座旧亭子要等我回来再拆。” 父亲很快召集来了工人，让他们按照旧亭子的模样重新在原地造一座亭子。亭子造好后，他叫来了孩子，对工人们说：“现在，你们开始拆这座旧亭子。”福克斯说，我认识这位父亲和孩子，这位父亲并不富有，但是他却为孩子实现了自己的诺言。 大学生们问：“请问这位父亲叫什么名字，我们希望认识他。” 福克斯说：“他已经过世了，但他的孩子现在就站在这里，就是我。”福克斯接着说，“我想说的是，我愿意像父亲一样，为自己的诺言为你们拆一座亭子。”言罢，台下掌声雷动。

２、美国的爱国教育 到美国生活一段时间后，我发现在国内所了解的美国是那么片面和表面的，麦当劳、肯德基、星巴克之类的东西在美国只是街头小景而已，完全不是主流社会的风景线。 有一天我们到罗伯特小学参观。我惊奇地看学生在课前有一个宣誓的仪式，所有学生在课室就地站立面向星条旗、右手抚胸宣誓，主要的内容是： 我宣誓忠实于美利坚合众国国旗，忠实于她所代表的合众国—————苍天之下一个不可分割的国家，在这里，人人享有自由和正义！从现在起，我决心认真学习、学会关心、懂得分享，珍惜时光，过好每一天。 后来我发现美国的中小学基本都有这种宣誓的仪式。而且美国的每一个州、市都有自己的州、市箴言。这些箴言表达每个地方的政治理想追求和倾向。这里讲讲州的箴言。州箴言已经成为州主要纪念、庆祝活动和政府正式政务活动的宣传口号，实质是一种政治的誓言。下面我们看看几个有代表性的州箴言，完全可以让每个人感受到美国是个“讲政治”的国家，宣扬爱国主义是大张旗鼓的。 北达科他州的州箴言：信仰自由不忘团结，注重眼前不忘未来，个人独立不忘整体。 内华达州的州箴言：一切为了国家。 肯塔基州的州箴言：团结则存，分裂则亡。 很多人以为美国日常生活是不讲政治的，这完全错了，只是它经过了包装，让人在不知不觉中接纳了它。在政治观念灌输方面，美国政府可谓技高一筹。

３、用小说讲法律知识 近二十年来，一批律师出身的美国作家异军突起，纵横驰骋，抢占了大片图书市场，争取到一大批读者，并借机大肆兜售他们自己的政治主张和法律观点。利用小说讲法———这是美国人的一大发明。对此，美国最高法院大法官肯尼迪说：“法律是故事，是我们昨天的故事；法律是知识，是我们关于今天如何行事的知识；法律是梦想，是我们对明天的梦想。”而小说是讲故事的终极形式。

４、感恩可以是一种生活态度 那是在洛杉矶郊县一所旅馆的早晨，我正在大堂的餐厅里就餐时，发现自己的右前方有3个黑人孩子，在餐桌上埋头写着什么。当问他们在做什么时，老大回答说正在写感谢信。他一副理所当然的神情让我满脸疑惑。这3个小孩一大早起来写感谢信？我愣了一阵后追问道：“写给谁的？”“给妈妈。”我心中的疑团一个未解一个又生。“为什么？”我又问道。“我们每天都写，这是我们每日必做的功课。”孩子回答道。哪有每天都写感谢信的？真是不可思议！我凑过去看了一眼他们每人手下的那沓纸。老大在纸上写了八九行字，妹妹写了五六行，小弟弟只写了两三行。再细看其中的内容，却是诸如“路边的野花开得真漂亮”、“昨天吃的比萨饼很香”、“昨天妈妈给我讲了一个很有意思的故事”之类的简单句。我心头一震。原来他们写给妈妈的感谢信不是专门感谢妈妈给他们帮了多大的 忙，而是记录下他们幼小心灵中感觉很幸福的一点一滴。他们还不知道什么叫大恩大德，只知道对于每一件美好的事物都应心存感激。他们感谢母亲辛勤的工作、感谢同伴热心的帮助、感谢兄弟姐妹之间的相互理解……他们对许多我们认为是理所当然的事都怀有一颗“感恩的心”。 其实，“感恩”不一定要感谢大恩大德，“感恩”可以是一种生活态度，一种善于发现美并欣赏美的道德情操。人生在世，不如意事十有八九。 如果我们囿于这种“不如意”之中，终日惴惴不安，那生活就会索然无趣。

５、希波克拉底的誓言 在抗击“非典”的斗争中，传媒报道优秀医务工作者的事迹时，曾言及“希波克拉底誓言”。希波克拉底是何人，他的“誓言”说了些什么？ 希波克拉底（Hippocrates）是古希腊医生，史载约生活在公元前460-公元前377年。“希波克拉底誓言”据史载并非全是希氏之作。希氏一直被西方认作“西方医学之父”，其“誓言”一直作为医学道德准则。《西方文化大辞典》中记述的“誓言”是这样的：“……我愿尽余之能力，与判断力所及，遵守为病家谋利益之信条，并检束一切堕落及害人行为，我不得将危害药品给予他人，并不作该项之指导，虽有人请求亦必不与之。尤不为妇人施堕胎手术。我愿以此纯洁与神圣之精神，终身执行我职务。凡患结石者，我不施手术，此则有待于专家为之。无论至于何处，遇男或女、贵人及奴婢，我之唯一目的，为病家谋幸福，并检点吾身，不作各种害人及恶劣行为，尤不作引诱之事。凡我所见所闻，无论有无业务关系，我认为应守秘密者，我愿保守秘密。倘使我严守上述誓言时，请求神祗让我生命与医术能无上光荣，我苟违誓，天神鬼神实共亟之。”

６、“我不是乞丐” 拉哈布·萨卡尔天生一副傲骨，追求一辈子活得有尊严、有骨气。一天，烈日当空，拉哈布正走着，一个黄包车夫来到他身边。车夫摇着铃铛问道：“先生，您需要车吗？”拉哈布转过头，发现那个人瘦得皮包骨，目光里似乎包含着贪婪的神情。“只有那些没有人性的家伙才以人力车代步。”这是拉哈布坚定不移的观点。 黄包车夫拉着车子跟在他后面，一路不停地摇铃。忽然间，拉哈布的脑子里闪出一个念头：也许拉车是这个穷汉惟一的生存手段。拉哈布是个有学问的人，许多概念———资本主义、平等、穷苦人、上帝、劳动分配、农村的赤贫、工业封建主义等，片刻之间都闪进了他的脑海。他又一次回头看了看那黄包车夫———天啊，他是那样的面黄肌瘦！ 黄包车夫摇着铃铛，又招呼拉哈布道：“来吧，先生！我送您，你要去哪里？”“去希布塔拉，你要多少钱？”“6便士。”“好吧，你跟我来！”拉哈布继续步行。“请上车，先生。”“跟我走吧！”拉哈布加快了脚步。拉黄包车的人跟在他后面小跑。时不时地，拉哈布回头对车夫说：“跟着我！” 到了希布塔拉，拉哈布从衣兜里掏出6便士递给黄包车夫，说：“拿去吧！”“可您根本没坐车呀。”“我从不坐黄包车，我认为那是一种犯罪。”“啊？可您一开始就该告诉我！”车夫的脸上露出一种鄙夷的神情。他擦了擦脸上的汗，拉着车子走开了。 “把这钱拿去吧，它是你应得的！” “可我不是乞丐！”黄包车夫拉着车，消失在街的拐角处。

７、别让那只鸟飞了 《别让那只鸟飞了》是加拿大一张针对成人而开发的大型游戏软件。游戏打开之后，映入眼帘的是一栋具有皇家风范的豪宅。这栋豪宅里有一只鸟在飞，它嘴巴上叼着一只篮子。这只鸟有一个特点：不论你是外出还是在家，你都不能忘记往这只鸟的篮子里放东西。假如你忘了，到了一定的时间，它就会从某个窗口里飞出去，一旦出现这种情况，屏幕上就会出现这么一个画面：豪宅倒塌，野草丛生；夕阳下，一个孤独的身影慢慢地消失在黑暗中。 向那只篮子里放些什么东西才不会使鸟儿飞走、豪宅倒塌呢？游戏里有一份菜单，那上面有包括金钱、花朵、微笑、哭泣、亲吻在内的152种日常用品和日常行为。它是赫利克斯公司耗时3年，从全球50万对金婚老人那里征集的，每一件东西，每一个行为都按得票的多少，被赋予了不同的时间价值，有的代表一个月，有的只代表3分钟。至于哪种代表一个月，哪种代表3分钟，上面没有明说，完全由游戏者根据自己对它们的认识来判定。 自从打开这个游戏，我就被它迷住了。只要有空，我就要玩上一阵。 起初，由于不知该向鸟儿的篮子里放些什么，那栋豪宅经常被我弄得从屏幕上消失。 这到底是怎样的一只鸟儿呢？我送它金钱，它只在家里呆3分钟，我送它一枝花朵，它竟可以呆上3个小时。后来我终于发现，它不再是一个游戏，而是50万对金婚老人在婚姻生活中的感悟和发现。它在告诉我，一句微不足道的赞许，一杯顺手递去的热茶，一枝3角钱的玫瑰，这些日常生活中微不足道的东西，具有滋养婚姻的神奇力量。

８、路与方向 几个大学生结伴登山，天气突然变坏，却找不到路出山，所幸警察、驻军联合搜救，才免于山难。 “我们知道方向！”其中一个大学生躺在担架上对搜救者说，似乎觉得很不服气。 “只知道方向有什么用？”搜救者不客气地说：“方向固然可以帮你找路，但并不等于路。方向告诉你该往西走，偏偏西边遇到山谷，你下不去；方向又指示你往北走，偏偏遇到一条河，你又无法渡过。到头来，方向没有错，路错了，惟有活活饿死冻死在山里。” 在人生的旅途上，以为设定方向就能达到目标，却不衡量自己的能力，极可能遭到失败的命运。

９、以小见大说诚信 据《玉泉子》一书记载，吕元膺任东都留守时，有位处士常陪他下棋。有一次，两人正对局，突然来了公文，吕元膺只好离开棋盘到公案前去批阅公文，那位棋友趁机偷偷挪动了一个棋子，最后胜了吕元膺。其实吕元膺已经看出他挪动棋子了，只是没有说破。第二天，吕元膺就请那位棋友到别处去谋生。别人都不知道辞退他的原因，他自己也不知道为什么被辞退。临走时，吕元膺还赠送了钱物。 吕元膺之所以要辞掉这位棋友，是由于他从这位棋友挪动一个棋子、搞了一个奸诈的小动作中发现了他的不诚信。诚信者，真诚守信之谓也。诚信，是人生的无形资产，是思想道德的重要组成部分。“人无信不立”，不诚信的人，不可能做好人，也难处世。与没有诚信的人交往，是十分危险可怕的。 挪动一个棋子，看起来是一件微不足道的小事，似乎不值得认真。但小事不小，小中可以见大。诚信，是一种美德，是一种可贵的善良；而不诚信，却是一种恶德，世间的无数不幸和灾祸的根源，无不是由恶德所滋生、引发的。小与大，并没有不可逾越的鸿沟。

１０、优秀是一种习惯 亚里士多德曾经说过：“我们每一个人都是由自己一再重复的行为所铸造的。因而优秀不是一种行为，而是一种习惯。”这后一句话的意思是说，“优秀”并不是用来描述人们行为而是用来描述人们习惯的词。初读这句话，颇有些迷惑不解。然而，只要你能够联想起一个耳熟能详的故事，那么这句话的深刻内涵也就像花朵那样向我们绽放开来。 在伊索“兔子和乌龟”的寓言中，兔子天生脚快，其奔跑的速度远胜于乌龟，然而，它跑了没多久，却躺在路边睡起大觉来了。平心而论，兔子在奔跑这一行为上不可谓不优秀，但它最终还是做了乌龟的手下败将。乌龟究竟拥有什么取胜的法宝呢？伊索的描述是“一往直前，毫不停歇”，如果我们把它概括得更抽象一点，也即乌龟拥有坚韧不拔的优秀品质，而坚韧不拔的优秀品质在具体的行为过程中自然而然地外化成一往直前的优秀习惯。这个故事告诉我们：一两个哪怕是顶尖的优秀行为终究敌不过优秀的行为习惯。一两个优秀的行为可能是孤立的、偶然的，缺乏后继性的，而优秀的行为习惯才是优秀行为层出不穷的制度性保证，它甚至有可能使一系列指向明确的平凡的行为产生不平凡的整体效应。 从某种意义上说，世界上不存在优秀的行为，习惯优秀才是真正的优秀。要臻于佳境，一个人需要优秀的行为习惯，一个地区和一个国家同样需要优秀的行为习惯，那便是好的机制或好的体制。

导语：好的开头能使文章生色,激发读者阅读的兴趣;好的结尾,能增强表达效果,使读者思索、回味文章的思想内容。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文素材，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

China is known as the kingdom of bicycles. Some cities have established their own bicycle sharing system to provide individuals with an alternative form of public transportation. Now bike sharing is a very popular means of transportation in China.

People around me are really proud of this green transport option. There are many advantages to using bicycle sharing. For one thing, using bicycle sharing can greatly contribute to reducing the air pollution and easing traffic jams. For another, bicycle sharing can provide people with chances to do exercises. Last but not least, it supplies great convenience for the local people as well as the tourists who want to explore the city.

Please cherish the bike when you ride the bike and it is not moral to do harm to the bike. After you get to your destination, don’t throw them away somewhere, although you have already paid for them. You should put them in a proper place.

美文欣赏:你可以选择自己想过的生活

Occasionally, life can be undeniably, impossibly difficult. We are faced with challenges and events that can seem overwhelming, life-destroying to the point where it may be hard to decide whether to keep going. But you always have a choice. Jessica Heslop shares her powerful, inspiring journey from the worst times in her life to the new life she has created for herself:

生活有时候困难得难以置信，但又不容置疑。我们面临的挑战与困境似乎无法抵御，试图毁灭我们生活，甚至使你犹疑是否继续走下去。但是你总有选择的余地。从人生低谷走向新生活的杰西卡·赫斯乐普，在这里与我们分享她启迪心灵、充满震撼力的生活之旅。

In 2012 I had the worst year of my life.

2012年是我生活中最艰难的一年。

I worked in a finance job that I hated and I lived in a concrete jungle city with little greenery. I occupied my time with meaningless relationships and spent copious quantities of money on superficialities. I was searching for happiness and had no idea where to find it.

我做着讨厌的财务工作，住在难寻绿色的高楼林立的城市。我忙于无意义的交往，在一些肤浅表面的东西上大笔开销。我寻找快乐，却又不知道它在哪里。

Then I fell ill with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and became virtually bed bound. I had to quit my job and subsequently was left with no income. I lived with my boyfriend of then only 3 months who financially supported me and our relationship was put under great pressure. I eventually regained my physical health, but not long after that I got a call from my family at home to say that my father’s cancer had fiercely progressed and that he had been admitted to a hospice.

然后我患上了慢性疲劳综合症，几乎到了卧床不起的地步。我不得不辞掉工作，同时也就断了财源。我和那时仅相处了3个月的男友住在一起，经济上完全依赖于他，我们的关系承受着巨大压力。终于我恢复健康，但不久，我接到家里的电话，父亲的癌症急剧恶化，已经住进了临终关怀中心。

I left the city and I went home to be with him.

我离开了城市，回家陪父亲。

He died 6 months later.

6个月之后，他去世了。

My father was a complete inspiration to me. He was always so strong that, for a minute after he drew his last breath, I honestly thought he would come back to life. I couldn’t believe I would never again cuddle into his big warm chest and feel safe no matter what.

父亲的事让我彻底清醒。他一直很强壮，在他咽气之后一分钟里，我真的认为，他会活过来。我不能相信，我再也不能依偎在他温暖的怀抱里，享受他宽大的胸怀带给我的安全感。

The grief that followed was intense for all of us 5 children and our mother, but we had each other.

母亲和我们5个兄弟姐妹极为难过，但至少我们还拥有彼此。

But my oldest sister at that time complained of a bad back. It got so bad after 2 months that she too was admitted to hospital.

但是，那时我大姐开始抱怨着背痛，2个月后，因疼痛加剧也住进了医院。

They discovered that she had highly advanced cancer in her bones and that there was nothing that they could do.

医生们检查发现，她已是骨癌晚期，对此他们已无能为力。

She died 1 month later.

1个月之后，她也走了。

I could never put into words the loss of my sister in my life.

大姐的逝去让我陷入难以形容的痛苦之中。

She was a walking, talking angel and my favourite person in the whole world. If someone could have asked me the worst thing that could ever happen, it would have been losing her.

在这个世界上，她是一个能走路、会说话的天使，我最喜欢的人。如果有人问我，世界上发生的最坏的事情是什么，那就是失去她。

She was my soul-mate and I never thought I would journey this lifetime without her.

她是我的灵魂伴侣，我从来没有想过，我会走过没有她陪伴的生命旅程。

The Moment Of Deliberate Choice

抉择时刻

The shock and extreme heart break brought me to my knees. The pain was so great and my world just looked desolate. I had no real home, no money, no job, and no friends that cared. Not one person had even sent me a sympathy card for my loss.

我被打击和极度的心痛击挎了。强烈的痛苦使世界在我眼中变得如此凄凉。我没有真正意义上的家，没有钱，没有工作，也没有关心我的朋友。没有一个人因我失去亲人而寄给我慰问卡。

I made an attempt of my own life and I ended up in hospital.

我尝试着活下去，结果住进了医院。

I remember lying in the hospital bed, looking up at the ceiling and seeing my sister’s beautiful face. She stayed with me all night long.

我记得，躺在病床上，看着天花板，看到姐姐美丽的面庞。她整夜守候着我。

I realised during that night that I had a choice. I could choose to end my life or I could choose to live it.

那天晚上，我意识到我可以选择。要么结束生命，要么活下去。

I looked in my sister’s eyes and I made a decision not to go with her just yet. That I would stay and complete my journey here.

望着姐姐的眼睛，我决定不跟她走。我要留下来，走完我的生命旅程。

I also made the decision that, I wouldn’t just live any life. I would live the life that I absolutely LOVE and nothing less.

同时，我还决定，不只为生活而生活，我要完全以自己想要的方式生活。

In that moment, the clarity that descended around me was like a light shining in a dark room for the first time. As if the earth’s plates had shifted under my feet and everything suddenly looked real for the first time.

在那一刻，这一想法第一次清晰得如同一盏在黑暗闪烁的明灯。好像脚下的地球版块变换了，每一样东西在我眼前都真实得前所未有。

美文赏析:打开心门拥抱生活

We often close ourselves off when traumatic events happen in our lives; instead of letting the world soften us, we let it drive us deeper into ourselves. We try to deflect the hurt and pain by pretending it doesn’t exist, but although we can try this all we want, in the end, we can’t hide from ourselves. We need to learn to open our hearts to the potentials of life and let the world soften us.

生活发生不幸时，我们常常会关上心门；世界不仅没能慰藉我们，反倒使我们更加消沉。我们假装一切仿佛都不曾发生，以此试图忘却伤痛，可就算隐藏得再好，最终也还是骗不了自己。既然如此，何不尝试打开心门，拥抱生活中的各种可能，让世界感化我们呢？

Whenever we start to let our fears and seriousness get the best of us, we should take a step back and re-evaluate our behavior. The items listed below are six ways you can open your heart more fully and completely.

当恐惧与焦虑来袭时，我们应该退后一步，重新反思自己的言行。下面六个方法有助于你更完满透彻地敞开心扉。

1. Breathe into pain

直面痛苦

Whenever a painful situation arises in your life, try to embrace it instead of running away or trying to mask the hurt. When the sadness strikes, take a deep breath and lean into it. When we run away from sadness that’s unfolding in our lives, it gets stronger and more real. We take an emotion that’s fleeting and make it a solid event, instead of something that passes through us.

当生活中出现痛苦的事情时，别再逃跑或隐藏痛苦，试着拥抱它吧；当悲伤来袭时，试着深呼吸，然后直面它。如果我们一味逃避生活中的悲伤，悲伤只会变得更强烈更真实——悲伤原本只是稍纵即逝的情绪，我们却固执地耿耿于怀。

By utilizing our breath we soften our experiences. If we dam them up, our lives will stagnate, but when we keep them flowing, we allow more newness and greater experiences to blossom.

深呼吸能减缓我们的感受。屏住呼吸，生活停滞；呼出呼吸，更多新奇与经历又将拉开序幕。

2. Embrace the uncomfortable

拥抱不安

We all know what that twinge of anxiety feels like. We know how fear feels in our bodies: the tension in our necks, the tightness in our stomachs, etc. We can practice leaning into these feelings of discomfort and let them show us where we need to go.

我们都经历过焦灼的煎熬感，也都感受过恐惧造成的生理反应：脖子僵硬、胃酸翻腾。其实，我们有能力面对这些痛苦的感受，从中领悟到出路。

The initial impulse is to run away — to try and suppress these feelings by not acknowledging them. When we do this, we close ourselves off to the parts of our lives that we need to experience most. The next time you have this feeling of being truly uncomfortable, do yourself a favor and lean into the feeling. Act in spite of the fear.

我们的第一反应总是逃避——以为否认不安情绪的存在就能万事大吉，可这也恰好妨碍了我们经历最需要的生活体验。下次感到不安时，不管有多害怕，也请试着勇敢面对吧。

3. Ask your heart what it wants

倾听内心

We’re often confused at the next step to take, making pros and cons lists until our eyes bleed and our brains are sore. Instead of always taking this approach, what if we engaged a new part of ourselves that isn’t usually involved in the decision making process?

我们常对未来犹疑不定，反复考虑利弊直到身心俱疲。与其一味顾虑重重，不如从局外人的角度看待决策之事。

I know we’ve all felt decisions or actions that we had to take simply due to our “gut” impulses: when asked, we can’t explain the reasons behind doing so — just a deep knowing that it had to get done. This instinct is the part of ourselves we’re approaching for answers.

其实很多决定或行动都是我们一念之间的结果：要是追问原因的话，恐怕我们自己也道不清说不明，只是感到直觉如此罢了。而这种直觉恰好是我们探索结果的潜在自我。

To start this process, take few deep breaths then ask, “Heart, what decision should I make here? What action feels the most right?”

开始前先做几次深呼吸，问自己：“内心认为该做什么样的决定呢？觉得采取哪个方案最恰当？”

See what comes up, then engage and evaluate the outcome.

看看自己的内心反应如何，然后全力以赴、静待结果吧。

美文赏析:生活中你错过了什么？

In this life, what did you miss?

在生活中，你错过了什么？

The wife asked the husband when she was 25. Despondently, the husband replied: I missed a new job opportunity.

妻子25岁的时候这样问丈夫。丈夫沮丧地回答：“我错过了一个新的工作机会。”

When she was 35, the husband angrily told her that he had just missed the bus.

35岁时，丈夫生气地说他错过了公交车。

At 45, the husband sadly said: I missed the oppotunity seeing my closed relative before his last breath.

45岁时，丈夫悲伤地说：“我错过了见至亲最后一面的机会。”

At 55, the husband said disappointingly: I missed a good chance to retire.

55岁时，丈夫失望地说：“我错过了一个退休的好机会。”

At 65, the husband hurriedly replied: I missed a dental appointment.

65岁时，丈夫匆匆地回答：“我错过了和牙医的预约。”

At 75, the wife did not ask the husband anymore, the husband was kneeling in front of the very sick wife. Remembering the question the wife used to ask him, this time he asked the wife the same question. The wife, with a smile and peaceful look, replied: In this life, I did not miss having you!

75岁，妻子不再问丈夫同样的问题，丈夫跪在病重的妻子面前，想起以前妻子常常问起的那个问题，这次他也问了妻子同样的问题，妻子笑了笑，一脸平静地说：“我这一生，没有错过你！”

The husband was full of tears. He always thought that they could be together forever. He was always busy with work and trifles. So much so he had never been thoughtful to his wife. The husband hugged the wife tightly and said: Over 50 years, how I had allowed myself to miss your deep love for me.

丈夫满眼泪水，他总是认为可以和妻子白头到老，于是总是忙于工作和琐事，从没在意过妻子。他紧紧地抱住妻子说：“这50多年来，我怎么能允许自己错过了你对我的爱呢。”

In the busy city life, there are many people who are always busy with work. These people revolve their lives around their jobs, these people sacrifice all their times and health to meet the social expectations. They are unwilling to spend times on health care. They miss the opportunity to be with their children in their growing up. They neglect the loved ones who care for them, and also their health.

在繁忙的城市生活中，有人总是忙于工作。他们整天围着工作转，甚至为了达到社会的标准，牺牲了自己的健康。他们不愿花时间来关注自己的健康，在孩子成长的过程中错失了与之共享天伦之乐的机会。他们忽视了那些关心他们的人，以及他们的健康。

Nobody knows what is going to happen one year from now.

没有人知道一年后会发生什么事情。

Life is not permanent, so always live in the now. Express your gratitude to your loved ones in words. Show your care with actions. Treat everyday as the last episode of life. In this way, when you are gone, you loved ones would have nothing to feel sorry about.

生命不是永恒的，所以活在当下吧。把你对爱人的感谢说出来，用行动证明你关心他们。把每一天当作人生的最后一个篇章，只有这样，当你离开时，你爱的人们才会没有遗憾。

美文赏析:去经历去体验 做最好最真实的自己

Truly happy and successful people get that way by becoming the best, most genuine version of themselves they can be. Not on the outside--on the inside. Its not about a brand, a reputation, a persona. Its about reality. Who you really are.

真正快乐成功的人会长成最好最真实的自己——从内心而非外表上。重要的不是品牌、名誉或者外表形象，而是真实的自我。

Sounds simple, I know. It is a simple concept. The problem is, its very hard to do, it takes a lot of work, and it can take a lifetime to figure it out.

道理很简单，讲出来也很容易。但问题是，做起来就不简单了：这需要付诸很多努力，甚或一辈子才能实现。

Nothing worth doing in life is ever easy. If you want to do great work, its going to take a lot of hard work to do it. And youre going to have to break out of your comfort zone and take some chances that will scare the crap out of you.

需要穷尽毕生精力的事情必定不容易。成大事者必先苦其心志。因此，你必须走出舒适区，去经历、去体验那些会让你害怕的机会。

But you know, I cant think of a better way to spend your life. I mean, whats life for if not finding yourself and trying to become the best, most genuine version of you that you can be?

况且，人这一辈子，若到头来都认不清自己、未能长成最好最真实的自己，还有什么意义呢？

Thats what Steve Jobs meant when he said this at a Stanford University commencement speech:

正如史蒂夫-乔布斯在斯坦福大学的毕业典礼上所言：

Your time is limited, so dont waste it living someone elses life. Dont let the noise of others opinions drown out your own inner voice.

时间宝贵，不要虚掷光阴过着他人的生活。不要让周遭的聒噪言论蒙蔽你内心的声音。

You have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something--your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

你要相信，生活中的偶然冥冥中也能指引未来。你要心怀信念——相信你的直觉、命运、生活抑或因缘。这个方法一直给我力量，促使我过得卓然不同。

The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you havent found it yet, keep looking. Dont settle.

成大事的唯一途径就是做自己喜欢的事情。若你还没找到，那就继续追寻吧，不要停下来。

Now, lets for a moment be realistic about this. Insightful as that advice may be, it sounds a little too amorphous and challenging to resonate with todays quick-fix culture. These days, if you cant tell people exactly what to do and how to do it, it falls on deaf ears.

现在我们来实际一点：建议或许很深刻，但听完却让人无从着手，难以运用到当今的快节奏文化中。现如今，如果一个建议讲不清具体做什么、该怎么做的话，那么说了也等于白说。

Not only that, but what Jobs was talking about, what Im talking about, requires focus and discipline, two things that are very hard to come by these days. Why? Because, focus and discipline are hard. Its so much easier to give in to distraction and instant gratification. Easy and addictive.

不仅如此，乔布斯的讲话和我要说的话都需要集中和自制——这两个品质在当今社会非常难能可贵。何以见得？因为集中和自制都不容易做到。人们很容易分散注意力、寻求即时快 感——舒服且容易上瘾。

To give you a little incentive to take on the challenge, to embark on the road to self-discovery, here are three huge benefits from working to become the best, most genuine version of yourself.

为激励你迎接挑战、踏上寻求自我的旅途，我列出了成为最好最真实自己后的三大益处：

It will make you happy. Getting to know yourself will make you feel more comfortable in your own skin. It will reduce your stress and anxiety. It will make you a better spouse, a better parent, a better friend. It will make you a better person. Those are all pretty good reasons, if you ask me.

你会感到快乐。了解自己后会让你更愉悦地接受自己，减轻你的压力和焦虑，使你成为更好的伴侣、父母、朋友，让你成为一个更美好的人。这些益处难道不够说服你为之努力吗？

Besides, you really wont achieve anything significant in life until you know the real you. Not your brand, your LinkedIn profile, how you come across, or what anyone thinks of you. The genuine you. Theres one simple reason why you shouldnt try to be something youre not, and its that you cant. The real you will come out anyway. So forget your personal brand and start spending time on figuring out who you really are and trying to become the best version of that you can be.

而且，只有了解真实的自己方能成就大事。你需要了解那个真实的你，而不是你的品牌、名誉、LinkedlIn资料、你的过去抑或他人对你的看法。为什么你不应该过他人的生活？很简单，因为首先你不是“其他人”，你的本性总有一天会现形。所以，请放开你的品牌形象，努力发掘真实自我、努力把自己经营成最好的自己吧。

美文赏析:爱情不是商品

Love Is Not Like Merchandise

爱情不是商品

A reader in Florida, apparently bruised by some personal experience, writes in to complain, "If I steal a nickels worth of merchandise, I am a thief and punished; but if I steal the love of anothers wife, I am free."

佛罗里达州的一位读者显然是在个人经历上受过创伤, 他写信来抱怨道: “如果我偷走了五分钱的商品, 我就是个贼, 要受到惩罚, 但是如果我偷走了他人 妻子的爱情, 我没事儿。”

This is a prevalent misconception in many peoples minds---that love, like merchandise, can be "stolen". Numerous states, in fact, have enacted laws allowing damages for "alienation of affections".

这是许多人心目中普遍存在的一种错误观念——爱情, 像商品一样, 可以 “偷走”。实际上，许多州都颁布法令，允许索取“情感转让”赔偿金。

But love is not a commodity; the real thing cannot be bought, sold, traded or stolen. It is an act of the will, a turning of the emotions, a change in the climate of the personality.

但是爱情并不是商品；真情实意不可能买到，卖掉，交换，或者偷走。爱情是志愿的行动，是感情的转向，是个性发挥上的变化。

When a husband or wife is "stolen" by another person, that husband or wife was already ripe for the stealing, was already predisposed toward a new partner. The "love bandit" was only taking what was waiting to be taken, what wanted to be taken.

当丈夫或妻子被另一个人“偷走”时，那个丈夫或妻子就已经具备了被偷走的条件，事先已经准备接受新的伴侣了。这位“爱匪”不过是取走等人取走、盼人取走的东西。

We tend to treat persons like goods. We even speak of the children "belonging" to their parents. But nobody "belongs" to anyone else. Each person belongs to himself, and to God. Children are entrusted to their parents, and if their parents do not treat them properly, the state has a right to remove them from their parents trusteeship.

我们往往待人如物。我们甚至说孩子“属于”父母。但是谁也不“属于”谁。人都属于自己和上帝。孩子是托付给父母的，如果父母不善待他们，州政府就有权取消父母对他们的托管身份。

Most of us, when young, had the experience of a sweetheart being taken from us by somebody more attractive and more appealing. At the time, we may have resented this intruder---but as we grew older, we recognized that the sweetheart had never been ours to begin with. It was not the intruder that "caused" the break, but the lack of a real relationship.

我们多数人年轻时都有过恋人被某个更有诱惑力、更有吸引力的人夺去的经历。在当时，我们兴许怨恨这位不速之客---但是后来长大了，也就认识到了心上人本来就不属于我们。并不是不速之客“导致了”决裂，而是缺乏真实的关系。

On the surface, many marriages seem to break up because of a "third party". This is, however, a psychological illusion. The other woman or the other man merely serves as a pretext for dissolving a marriage that had already lost its essential integrity.

从表面上看，许多婚姻似乎是因为有了“第三者”才破裂的。然而这是一种心理上的幻觉。另外那个女人，或者另外那个男人，无非是作为借口，用来解除早就不是完好无损的婚姻罢了。

Nothing is more futile and more self-defeating than the bitterness of spurned love, the vengeful feeling that someone else has "come between" oneself and a beloved. This is always a distortion of reality, for people are not the captives or victims of others---they are free agents, working out their own destinies for good or for ill.

因失恋而痛苦，因别人“插足”于自己与心上人之间而图报复，是最没有出息、最自作自受的乐。这种事总是歪曲了事实真相，因为谁都不是给别人当俘虏或牺牲品——人都是自由行事的，不论命运是好是坏，都由自己来作主。

But the rejected lover or mate cannot afford to believe that his beloved has freely turned away from him--- and so he ascribes sinister or magical properties to the interloper. He calls him a hypnotist or a thief or a home-breaker. In the vast majority of cases, however, when a home is broken, the breaking has begun long before any "third party" has appeared on the scene.

但是，遭离弃的情人或配偶无法相信她的心上人是自由地背离他的——因而他归咎于插足者心术不正或迷人有招。他把他叫做催眠师、窃贼或破坏家庭的人。然而，从大多数事例看，一个家的破裂，是早在什么“第三者”出现之前就开始了的。

Dear Haiqing,

I hear you are very unhappy these days because your parents can’t afford to buy you some brand-name shoes and garments you like very much. And I write you this letter to share with you what I think about this matter.

To begin with, beauty is just skin deep. Don’t you think it silly to pay so much attention to your appearance? He is a shallow person who judges others by their appearance; in the same sense, he is a shallow person who thinks that a brand-name garment can add to his glamour. So please, just forget about those brand-name things. What really matters is not whether you wear brand-name shoes or garments but whether your clothes fit you. As a student, you have to wear the school uniform on the weekdays and to be honest, you look very smart in it. Then why do you have to bother to buy the expensive brand-name things?

Secondly, I know your parents are both average workers. Hard as they work, they don’t earn much. Despite this, they do their best to give you a lot of things on demand. Look at the callus on their hands and wrinkles on their faces, how can you have the heart to ask for more than they can afford, which will surely break their hearts? Remember, parents don’t owe us expensive summer camps; they don’t owe us Sony Walkman; nor do they owe us Nike shoes, If you really want those fancy things, you should take a part-time job to contribute to their purchase rather than ask your parents for money to add to their already heavy burden. Don’t you think so?

Thirdly, we have such a wide variety of things available these days which are both nice and inexpensive. What’s the point of paying much more for those brand-name things that are not much better? My friend, take my advice, and you’ll be a wiser consumer as well as a more considerate child to your parents.

Poverty, sometimes, is a good thing. It can test a person’s character and it makes a man out of a boy faster than anything else. Keep working hard, and you are bound to be able to afford those things in the near future. Now you may as well focus on your study. Anyway, wouldn’t it be funny for a would-be achiever to be so preoccupied with brand-name things all day long?

Keep in touch.

Yours

Huangping

亲爱的海青,

我听说你现在很不高兴因为你的父母买不起你一些名牌鞋和你非常喜欢的衣服。我给你写这封信与你分享我的想法。

首先,美丽只是表面的。你不觉得这么多关注你的外表很愚蠢吗?他一个肤浅的人通过他们的外表来判断他人;在同样的意义上,他是一个肤浅的人认为名牌衣服可以添加到他的魅力。所以,请忘记那些名牌的东西。真正重要的不在于你穿名牌鞋子或衣服但你的衣服是否适合你。作为一名学生,你必须穿校服在工作日,老实说,你看起来非常聪明。然后你为什么要费心去买昂贵的名牌的东西?

其次,我知道你的父母都是普通工人。他们努力工作,也挣不了多少钱。尽管如此,他们尽自己最大的努力给你很多东西。看看愈伤组织手上和脸上的皱纹,你怎么能忍心要求超出他们的承受能力,这肯定会打破他们的心?记住,父母不欠我们昂贵的夏令营,他们不欠我们索尼随身听;他们也不欠我们耐克的鞋子,如果你真正想要的那些花哨的东西,你应该采取兼职工作有助于他们的购买,而不是向你的父母要钱增加了沉重的负担。难道你不这样认为吗?

第三,我们有各种各样的东西可用这些天既好又便宜的。有什么意义的付出更多的那些名牌的东西不是更好吗?我的朋友,听我的劝告,你会是一个明智的消费者,以及一个更体贴的孩子你的父母。

贫困,有时候,是一件好事。它可以测试一个人的性格,速度比什么都快。继续努力,你一定会在不久的将来能够买得起这些东西。现在你可以专注于你的学习。无论如何,一个潜在成功者，整天专注于名牌的东西不是很有趣的呢

保持联系。

你的

黄平

一、高考作文常用经典人物素材之庄子

庄子(约公元前369——前286)，名周，字子休，蒙城县城东郊(今城关镇东城路)人。曾为漆园吏，战国时期著名思想家、文学家。庄子是继老子之后，战国时期道家学派的代表人物。同时他也是一位优秀的文学家、哲学家。他以其代表作《庄子》(又被称为《南华经》)阐发了道家思想的精髓，发展了道家学说，使之成为影响深远的哲学流派。

人物事略

濠梁之辩庄子和惠子一一道在濠水的桥上游玩。庄子说：倐鱼出游从容，是鱼之乐也(鱼游得多么悠闲白在，这就是鱼儿的快乐)。惠子说：子非鱼，安知鱼之乐?庄子说：子非我，安知我不知鱼之乐?惠子说：我非子，固不知子矣：子固非鱼也，子之不知鱼之乐，全矣(也是完全可以肯定的)。庄子说：请循其本。子日‘汝安知鱼乐’云者，既已知吾知之而问我。我知之嚎上也(还是让我们顺着先前的话来说。你刚才所说的‘你怎么知道鱼的快乐’的话，就是己经知道了我知道鱼儿的快乐而问我，而我则是在壕水的桥上知道鱼儿快乐的)。《秋水》

鸱得腐鼠惠子在魏国做宰相，庄子前去看他。有人对惠子说：庄子来，欲代子相。于是惠子十分恐慌，在都城内搜寻庄子，整整三天三夜。庄子去看他，对他说：南方有鸟，其名为鹓雏，子知之乎?夫鹓雏发于南海而飞于北海，非梧桐不止，非练实不食，非醴泉不饮。于是鸱得腐鼠，鹓雏过之，仰而视之口：‘吓!’今子欲以子之魏国而吓我邪(南方有一种鸟，它的名字叫鹓雏，你知道吗?鹓雏从南海出发飞到北海，不是梧桐树它不会停息，不是竹子的果实它不会进食，不是甘美的泉水它不会饮用。正在这时一只鹞鹰寻觅到一只腐烂了的老鼠，鹓雏刚巧从空中飞过，鸱鹰抬头看着鹓雏，发田一声怒吼：‘哧!’如今你也想用你的魏国来怒吼我吗?

材与非材庄子行走于山中，看见一棵大树枝叶十分茂盛，伐木的人停留在树旁却不去动手砍伐。问他们是什么原因，说：没有什么用处。庄子说：此木以不材得终其天年(这棵树就是因为不成材而能够终享天年啊)!庄子走出山来，留宿在朋友家中。朋友高兴，叫童仆杀鹅款待他。童仆问主人：其一能鸣，其一不能鸣，请奚杀(一只能叫，一只不能叫，请问杀哪一只呢)?主人说：杀不能鸣者。第二天，弟子问庄子：昨日山中之木，以不材得终其天年：今主人之鹅，以不材死。先生将何处?庄子笑道：周将处乎材与不材之间(我将处于成材与不成材之间)。

二、高考作文常用经典人物素材之曹操

曹操(155-220)，即魏武帝。三国政治家、军事家、诗人。字孟德，小名阿瞒，沛国谯县(安徽毫州)人。

人物事略

1.疑杀华佗晚年的曹操患了头脑痛风症，僚臣华歆向他推荐了神医华伦。遗憾的是，当华伦指出其症因风而起，病根入脑，风涎不能出，枉服汤药，须利斧开脑取风涎方可根除时，曹操竟疑心华佗是想乘机害他性命，遂将华佗杀了，一代神医命绝于世。

2.废除寒食节“寒食节”相传起于春秋时严明文公悼念介之推之事。以介之推抱木焚死，人们就定于是日禁火寒食一百余天。曹操有一年视察并了解当地百姓的生活民情时，发现民间百姓每年度过“寒食节”的方式，己经非常严重地影响和危害了老百姓的身体健康，于是下令废除。

3.提倡薄葬218年，曹操颁布了一道《终令》，提出死后不要厚葬，要将自己埋葬在瘠薄的土地上，依照地面原有的高度作为圹基，陵上不堆土，不植树。一年后，他为自己准备了送终的四季衣服，并留下遗嘱说：我如果死了，请按当时季节所穿衣服入殓，金玉珠宝铜器等物，一概不要随葬。曹操是中国历史上第一位提出“薄葬”的帝王。

4.割发代首有一次，曹操大军经过农田，看见田里庄稼丰收在望，于是下令凡践踏麦田的，就斩首示众。不料自己的马受惊而一下子蹿入麦田中，践踏坏了一块麦田。为了实践自己的命令，取信于民，于是就割了自己的头发来代替。

5.望梅止渴曹操征张绣时，路上缺水，将士皆渴，于是他以鞭虚指着前面说有梅林，军士听说后均感到口中生津，不那么渴了，最终走出了困境。

三、高考作文常用经典人物素材之李白

逸、狂、愤、醉——探索李白的情感世界

盛唐气象，孕育了一位狂傲不羁的诗人，他以超脱世俗的人性智慧，谱写了盛唐的最强音。政治上的失意苦痛，铸就了飘逸洒脱、傲岸不拘的诗仙和“痛饮狂歌空度日，飞扬跋扈为谁雄”的酒仙。现在让我们来追寻他的人生的不同阶段，探究李白——这位距今一千三百多年的旷世奇才、人间仙人的情感历程。

人物事略

1.胯下之辱淮阴有个屠户侮辱韩信，说：“虽长大，好带刀剑，怯耳”。并当众侮辱他说：“能死，刺我;不能，出胯下。”韩信注视了对方良久，慢慢低下身来，从他的胯档下爬了出去。街上的人都耻笑韩信，认为他是个怯懦之人。

2.命运多舛秦末，项梁起兵反秦，渡过淮河北上，韩信此时带着宝剑投奔了项梁，留在部队，默默无闻。项梁败死后，又归属项羽，项羽让他做郎中。韩信多次给项羽献计，项羽不予采纳。

3.离楚归汉韩信离开楚军，投奔刘邦，做管理仓库的小官，依然不被人所知。后来韩信坐法当斩，同案的十三人都己处斩，就要轮到韩信了，韩信举日仰视，说：“上不欲就天下乎?何为斩壮士!”夏侯婴觉得此人话语不同凡响，看他相貌威武，就同他交谈，很欣赏他，于是进言汉王。汉王封韩信一个管理粮饷的官职，没有发现他与众不同的地方。

4.萧何月下追韩信韩信多次同萧何交谈，得到萧何的赏识，却始终不被刘邦所重用，于是乘月而走。萧何听说韩信走了，来不及向刘邦报告便骑上马去追韩信。追上韩信后，萧何问韩信为什么要走，韩信说：“汉王不信任我，不用我，我留在这儿也没什么意思，想去投奔别人。”萧何说：“你先别走，和我一块回去。如果这次汉王再不封你为大将，你再走也不迟呀。”在萧何的再三恳求下，韩信勉强跟萧何回去了。

5.韩信点兵，多多益善有一回，汉高祖刘邦在和韩信的闲谈中，议论朝中将领的军事才能。到后来，刘邦问韩信："你看我能指挥多少军队呢?"韩信说："陛下您最多能指挥十万人。"刘邦又间："那么你能带多少兵呢?"韩信说："我带兵越多越好(多多益善)。"反映出韩信的自信。

五、高考作文常用经典人物素材之武则天

武则天(624—705)并州文水人，唐初工部尚书武士彟(音yuē)之女，唐高宗李治的皇后，唐代女政治家。

人物事略

1.武皇家世武则天，本名武照，称帝后改为武曌。祖籍初唐并州文水(今山西文水县)。她诞生于唐高祖武德七年(624年)正月，卒于中宗神龙元年(705年)十一月。生母是武士彟的续妻，陇右大士族、隋朝宰相、遂宁公杨达之女。

2.入宫见闻贞观十一年(637年)，14岁的武则天以长相俊美，人选宫中，受封“才人”。入宫之后，武则天行事干练，善解人意，再加上姿色娇艳，颇得太宗欢心，遂赐号“媚娘”。时日既久，太宗又发现她学识尚好，且懂礼仪，便把她从侍穿衣着的行列，调入御书房侍候文墨。这一变故使武则天开始接触皇家公文，了解了一些宫廷大事，并能读到许多不易得见的书籍典章，眼界顿阔，日渐通晓官场政治和权术。

3.皇后武则天公元654年，即高宗永徽五年的十月十三日，高宗正式下诏书废王皇后、萧淑妃为庶人，六天后，立武则天为皇后。武则天对王皇后、萧淑妃也没有放过，将二人各责打了一百杖，然后残忍地砍去双脚，泡在酒瓮里活活折磨死了。

4.平定徐敬业武则天为以后做女皇做的准备活动，被一些大臣识破，遭到了他们的激烈反对。花公元684年的九月，被武则天贬出京城的徐敬业开始起兵反抗。武则天连忙调动了三十万兵马迎战，让李孝逸领兵平叛。只用了四十天的时间，徐敬业的叛乱便被平定了。

5.实现女皇梦公元690年的重阳节，即九月九日，年近古稀的武则天改元“天授”，正式建立了大周王朝，自称“圣神皇帝”。同时，将睿宗李旦降为皇嗣，皇太子李成器也降为皇太孙。武则天尊周文王姬发为始祖文皇帝，尊父亲为孝明高皇帝，侄子武承嗣等人也有封赏。

在福建省民间，流传着过年的美妙传说。

相传远古时候，有一种凶恶的怪兽，身子庞大，头上长着像牛角一般的触角；眼睛圆滚滚的。活似两盏灯笼。一张血盆大嘴、一口可以吞食一个人。这种怪兽的名字叫做“年”。

年住在山洞里，它是山中霸王。老虎、狮子、黑熊一看到它，便吓得逃命；山羊、猴子、野兔听到它的吼叫，便瘫倒在地。年在山上捕食动物，吃饱便呼噜噜地躺在洞里睡大觉。每当严寒将尽、新春快来的时候，年便跑下山来，进村吃人。因此，人类也非常害怕它，小孩子哭了，只要妈妈说一声“年来了”，孩子就吓得不敢哭出声了。

却说那时候，有两个放牛的孩子，一个叫阿山，个叫阿水，他俩是好伙伴，胆子都很大，常常赶着牛群上山吃草。家里的人对他俩说：“孩子，山上有年，去不得呀！”

“不怕！”阿山和阿水有心计，说：“我们背上弓和箭，年要是来了，就爬到树上射死它！”

话虽这么说，他俩上山几次，幸喜都没有碰到年。转眼到了腊月三十日，天色黄昏。阿山和阿水赶着牛群回家。真怪，牛儿惊慌得哞哞叫，挤成一团。这是咋回事呢？

“呔，快走！”阿山和阿水挥起牛鞭，啪啪地抽打了几下。忽然听到“嘎哇”地一声怪叫，一只怪物吓得朝村前路上跑去。

阿山道：“阿水，你看，是一只年跑了！”

“真怪，年是凶兽，怎么看到我们反而害怕得逃走了。”阿水觉得挺奇怪。

“嗯，”阿山果断地说，“我们追过去看看。”

两个小牧童真够大胆，他俩不断地挥动牛鞭催牛快走。牛鞭声劈哩啪啦地响，年逃窜得更快了。“哦，是哩！”阿山猛悟过来，“原来年害怕牛鞭声！”

阿山和阿水赶着牛群进村，远远看到年窜到吴公公家门。吴公公家门前晒了一件大红衣裳，年吓得扭转头，朝村后头跑去。

那边也有一个村子。此时，夜幕降临了，年一见家家户户的窗口明亮亮地闪着灯光，刺得它头昏眼花，又扭转头跑了。这时，阿山和阿水已经把牛群赶进棚里，又追过去。他俩故意把鞭子甩得啪啪响，年惊恐地怪叫着，跑上山了。

阿山和阿水把这一切看得清清楚楚，回到村里，他们对乡亲们说；“原来年怕响、怕红、怕火。咱们知道它的弱点，往后可以抵御它了。”

乡亲们听了，很快就想出一个好办法。大家在村前燃起篝火，阿山和阿水投入一根根竹子，火堆里发出“劈劈啪啪”的爆裂声。几只年跑下山。看到篝火，听到响声，果然又往回跑了。就这样，一夜过去了，乡亲们平安无事。第二天正月初一，乡亲们拿出红柑、花生米等好吃的东西一道吃，互相祝贺：“恭喜！”

从此，人们便把正月初一叫做“过年”。每当到了这一天，家家户户贴红春联，燃放鞭炮，点红蜡烛，穿红衣服，以“红”为吉利的象征。据说这些风俗都是当年抵御“年”的办法逐渐演化过来的。

不知何时，才想起要去翻日历。慢慢掀开，才知道今天是元旦。记忆的匣门缓缓打开，又是新的一年，再见，我的xx年。一年又过，樱花又落。祝福你，我的xx。愿你永远美好，我的xx。再也不是梦，眼瞳也不在落寞。...

元旦晚会主持词开场白主持人甲：尊敬的各位领导主持人乙：亲爱的同事们主持人甲、乙：大家晚好!主持人甲：在缤纷的焰火和欢快的乐曲中，新的xx年向我们走来。辞旧迎新之际，我们总是百感交集、思绪万千。

今天是xx年的最后一天，也是我们最快乐的一天。xx年1月1日上午8点，太阳虽然早已经升起，但寒气并没有收敛。没有风。学校里那些树静静的教室里每个学生的心里是静静的。连教室也是静静的。

元旦到了，学校放了三天假，我要好好想一想这三天假期怎么安排。假期的第一天我和爸爸妈妈去了姥姥家，姥姥家离我家很远，到了姥姥家，妈妈在家陪姥姥做饭，爸爸和我去了姥姥家前边的小河玩。

在我看来，元旦晚会是一年之中最快乐的活动。我们通常在一个星期前就激动万分，然后几天前开始买彩纸，自己制作拉花，张灯结彩，连灯也用彩纸包起来买气球，挂在教室的每个角落买瓜子、苹果、橘子好让大家吃得舒心，玩的开心。

风若遥远的回音，追着梦的翅膀，在亘古不变的神话里寻找一个金壁辉煌的王朝。她是史册里深藏的墨迹，带给人无法言说的美丽和忧愁;她是云彩里镌刻的记忆，留给世间难以忘却的厚重和大气。宛如宝剑上镶刻的星辰，恍若皇冠烘托的太阳，一袭轻纱下的曼妙舞蹈，摇醒了一个盛世的传说。

古老的风铃开始变奏，浑厚如黄钟大吕的音符直贯苍穹。是你吗，唐朝?

我用想像触摸你诗的轮廓，我手心的雪花含苞欲放，我梦想的枝头辍满星光。没有比枫桥更波澜的心情，摇荡清秋的月亮;没有比李白更易醉的豪肠，张口一吐，就是半个盛唐。李商隐的秋池浇开紫丁香的惆怅，渭城的朝雨沾湿王维的衣裳。在一个民族精神疆域里呈现出人生的壮美，艺术情怀的宏广。唐朝啊，你美丽竟是这么多生命的拓荒，怎能不令人陶醉，怎能使人遗忘?

我的脚步惊醒了你繁华的美梦了吗?那根透明的琴弦还在你修长的十指下震颤，震落了美人脸上凝香的露华，是谁的眼泪这样甘之如泉?面对银烛秋光冷画屏，你叹息了吗?独步瑶台的风采，高处不胜寒的无奈，切莫乱了音律，不然，古淡清醇的山水恨你，恨你弹指惊春去。而今，你竟融成一盏铁观音，散发着在沧桑中冶炼过的从容风味，让一代又一代文人墨客来品评你如盛绚的过往，一个泱泱大气的传说!

你仍然庄严地站在中华五千年的青史中，以博大的文化情怀和丰繁的艺术成就笑傲同侪。夜光杯里的葡萄红闪闪发亮，醉了一个又一个世纪。那些坚守岁月的人，朝霞从此耀眼，残阳从此灿烂，中国从此芳醇神气，永久蕴香迷人。是这样吗，唐朝?你陶醉和震响了整个生命的世界。

把满纸才子的情高遐想折好，我愿枕琴声做一场崇古清梦，醉于此间，永不醒来。

纵使时间流淌，时光飞逝，美丽的唐朝不老，永恒的记忆不褪。

全国卷高考作文素材：智慧，就藏在房间里

妈妈对爸爸的评价：平时挺精明，一到钱上就犯浑，只知道乱花钱，败家。

可不是?打我记事起，买房子、搬家、卖房子就成了常态，少说也换了四五个地段。若家底殷实犹可说，可咱家却刚达小康。几番折腾下来，已经举了不少外债。

爸爸和财务打了几十年的交道，跟客户谈账目时几百万的数目也得精确到个位，如此细致的人儿怎会连家中的存款、经济状况都不清楚?莫非真如“清官难断家务事”，对外精细了，对内就糊涂?我有些不明白。

不过细细想来，爸爸几次一意孤行决定买下的房子，其位置都有点名堂。譬如上小学一二年级时，我家的房子择在镇中心，虽然位于中心，却拥有罕见的静谧，大概是与喧嚣马路隔着几幢楼房和一片树林的缘故吧。看着远处人来车往纷杂不已，耳畔却时常闻见群鸟啁啾似在欢腾。年纪尚小的我，不懂得“大隐隐于市”，却在这明媚的阳光中领略到静的美好，收敛了顽皮和野性。

上初中时，爸爸看上了一处邻近学校的房子。地理位置虽然不错，价格却出奇地高。大概把家里百十平米的老房子卖了，再垫点钱，才换得那六七十平米的新居。那关口，爸爸打开家里的存折算了一下，又带着笑容对外借了点钱，就轻飘飘地将钱交给了房主，全然不顾一旁闪着噬人目光的妈妈。后来的日子，我们一家度着有史以来最难熬的时光。但多亏了这一决定，每逢冬季，我不必在寒风中赶远路，缠人的支气管炎不再发作，平安地度过了初中三年。整整三年。

唯一一次让我不满意的新居，便是高中时代的房子。为了延续初中的传统，父亲仍在学校旁边找了间房。但我搬进去一看，却比初中的更狭小、更简陋，网络、电视全没有，平日用来消磨时光的手机也只好交出。高中三年的色调，变得乏善可陈。听着我倾诉满腹牢骚，爸爸只在一旁呵呵一笑，说：“现在啊，还是艰苦点吧。”说来也怪，一些过去的朋友遇见了我，却惊讶往日颇为散漫的我多了些沉稳，啊，兴许真的长大了呢!

高中的生活，终于迎来尾声。一日，我与爸爸闲聊：“爸，以后还搬家么?”爸爸意味深长地答道：“你走了，就不搬了。”我默然。忽地明白，父亲的多次搬家或许仅仅是为了我吧。

我想，妈妈评价爸爸“花钱发昏”，可能有些道理。但是，这种行为如今看来却蕴有某种智慧。只不过，这智慧被爱包裹起来，深深地、悄悄地藏在这房间里的某处罢了。

家国情怀源于家族情怀

在宗法制家族无碍于历朝历代绵延之后的今天，有谁会想到它也会成为争议的焦点呢?当家假日长辈召开的家族聚会成为年轻一代人的苦恼，其本质是传统文化的式微，更是青年人正在失去其根基之状态。

的确，家族聚会自古而有之，想必不愿参加之人也自古而有之，而如今争议之所以激起波澜无疑是因为如此之争议已成为社会共同问题。作为年轻人，我可以充分地理解小王的心情——在面对一群自己并不熟悉的长辈关于学业、事业与嫁娶等一系列直接的发问时，会感到无所适从实属必然;况且在人口迁移如此轻而易举的当今，各地区，尤其是中原地区的宗族基础早已被弱化，取而代之的是分散在全国各地的、彼此渐行渐远的同族人，能重聚首已属不易，更别提相聚时的冷淡气氛。小王的苦恼确有其根据。但值得注意的是，长辈们召开家族聚会的时间选在节假日。中国自古以来的传统节假日其目的无非有二：缅怀先人和庆祝阖家团圆。

当人人都在为“年味儿淡了”而叹息时，家族的聚会无疑是一个散发着团圆气息最大的发热源。其次，从历史渊源的角度探索，不难发现，不论是世界、国家还是地区范围内，对人口一个重要的划分就是民族。正因有了长期历史形成过程和法律的条文保护，民族内部才自觉形成了一条无形的纽带，民族的稳定性和持续性因此天然合理;同样，作文民族的衍生体，家族同样拥有其历史存在的合理性。

正如“姓氏”的存在，根本上是为了巩固家族的紧密性。再者，回到现实意义，当下的家族体系早非古代时那般阴森可怖、男尊女卑、等级分明了，其更多时候只依靠血缘和一些极强的意识形态——长辈心中对后代们深深的挂念维系。笔者认为，这点是小王应该承认的。故当从各个角度分析过后，不难得出，小王的行为首先是忽视了家族是几乎一切传统行为存在的基础的事实，其次低估了宗族制度的普世价值。

正如前文指出，诸如小王一类的年轻人已不算少数才有可能形成的社会争议，笔者认为虽然传统家族观念的确具有相当合理性，但如若始终不能够让年轻人接受，最终在年代上形成断层，也是不可避免的事。

为此，除了(与其)通过小王的父母、长辈对其施加言语上的压力，不如通过其他更温和的方式让年轻人不再抵触家族聚会。引领他学习、了解家庭、家族在历史中的演化过程应该是第一步，其次便是能平心静气地带领他回味家族曾带给他的美好感受;更重要的是，要具有这个时代最应该具有的家庭的关怀，发自内心的嘘寒问暖。

作为小王，乃至小王代表着的新一代人，只有真正了解到了家族情怀的普适价值，才能最终上升到国的层面，拥有了“家”，才最终能拥有这个时代最需要的家国情怀。
