Sir, it so happened that I was on my way home and noticed who were around

and what they were doing. A man in a dark suit was walking out of the door, with

an umbrella in his hand. A man was sweeping near the telephone booth. A woman

and her child were crossing the road. There was a basket on the womans right

arm. A man with a cap was on a ladder,cleaning the wall. A man was reading under

the tree. In the telephone booth, a girl was making a call. By the side of the

street, I found a black car parked there with a door open. In the car there were

two persons. The driver was sitting in the front, and the passenger was in the

back.

Sir, it so happened that I was on my way home and noticed who were around

and what they were doing. A man in black was standing by the door, with an

umbrella in his hand. A man with a cap was wiping the wall on a ladder. Under

the tree there was a man reading a newspaper. A black car was parked by the side

of the road with a door open. There was a driver sitting in the front and a

passenger in the back. A lady with a child was walking across the street. She

was carrying a basket on the arm. On the other side of the load, a man was

sweeping the street near the telephone booth. There was a girl making a phone

call in the telephone booth.

期中考试已经从我的笔尖中，溜走了。我整日浸泡在尘世里，无所事事。

我独自一人走在回家的宽马路上，静静的想着英语那见不得人的成绩，月亮露出了半边脸，月儿弯弯地好似在嘲笑我的英语成绩，不时吹来一阵寒风，冷冷地，自不禁收拢了衣服。任马路上一辆辆车从我身边飞驰而过，路上的尘埃被一辆辆飞驰而过的车带起。而尘埃中的石砂蹦了起来，如清泉迸出石缝一般，刺到了我的脸颊。打在脸旁然而痛则心。

回到了家，偶然发现餐桌上有一盘青椒炒鸡蛋，我立马想到了我课上写得作文，因得分较高，得到了老师的好评，我回家兴奋地告诉了父母。于是，第二日，餐桌上就有了一道青椒炒鸡蛋。我感动着，同时愧疚着。感动的是父母吧我的生活放在他们的心上，然而，愧疚的是我的英语考这么差，完全没理由来享用这一道美味地青椒炒鸡蛋。

爸爸在一旁盯着我，觉得奇怪，因为按我的性格，一回家就拿起筷子，在菜上舞动着。爸爸看出了有心事的我，便问我有何事，我回避着。又试图跑向阳台，可是，脚步却沉重了起来，不听我使唤。爸爸看出了我的心，知道一定是考试没。于是，爸爸用平淡的语气说了一句“失败乃是成功之母，如果你有心，一定可以学好！”。

虽然语气平淡，但却有一种不可抗拒的力量一直在责备着我。

这一次的责备使我的心灵上有那么多痛苦，痛苦……

现在我做在椅子上，左手边一杯水，右手一支笔，不停地写出了这个故事。想着那一种不可抗拒的力量，只觉得压力大，其实呢？

……

看看这一篇作文，在嗅嗅青椒炒鸡蛋的味，压力瞬间化无了，反而成为了力量，为学习而奋斗着，为自己而学习着。

I can always hear the news of education innovation after I go to school,

and many teachers are talking about the importance of extra-curricular activity,

which is believed to bring more creativity and vitality to the class. Actually,

the traditional class pays much attention to the knowledge from the books all

the time, which is easy to let students feel bored. As a result, every student

is so excited about the PE class, because they can enjoy freedom and play for

fun. Extra-curricular activity provides students a different way to broaden

their vision and inspire their creativity. Students feel relaxed and can think

in the active way. Many great people got their idea from the nature, so if the

teachers want to improve students interest, the good learning environment

should not be limited in the classroom.

写作是考研英语的第二大重头戏，仅次于阅读。但是这部分又经常被考生忽略，考前不动手，依赖临考模板，很难写出高分作文。那么，如何准备2018考研英语写作呢?一起来看下。

对于考研英语写作，最基本的要求是考前必须动笔写出35篇文章，其中十篇应用文，二十五篇图画作文。注意：动笔写的文章最好是有范文的题目。写作应分为五步：

NO.1 写作

写作写作，第一步首先是写!一定要动手写，你看多少，背多少，都没有动手写来得实在，建议同学们拿考题多加练习。

NO.2 仔细对比

第二个就是仔细对比，写完后对照范文从三个方面去研究：第一个是内容，也就是构思和原文有何区别;第二个是语言，也就是用词、用句和原文有何区别?第三个是结构，就是你的行文思路和原文有什么区别?这是第二个步骤，写作的区别其实就是写作的弱点。

NO.3 背诵

第三步骤就是背诵：也就是可以去背诵一些范文。有的同学说了，范文我背过了，但是写作的时候还是不会写。有两个原因，第一个原因是你背得不熟，背得结结巴巴，还不如不背;第二个原因是没有练过，只是死记硬背。

所以为什么背了还不会用，有两个原因，第一背不熟，第二没有练过。背到什么程度，有12个字“滚瓜烂熟、脱口而出、多多益善。”要背到不需要去想，不需要去动脑子!如果背一篇文章还需要去想，那就证明还背得不熟。大家上考场，如果能想起平时的70%，那已经是相当不错了。所以一定要背熟，这就是第三个步骤。

NO.4 默写

第四个步骤就是默写：背熟后把书合上，把这篇文章默写下来。默写后，做一个工作：仔细对比原文发现写作弱点，你会发现你默写的文章和原文会有一些出入，包括拼写、语法、标点等，这种错误就是你写作的弱点，最好能够把这些错误用红笔标出来。大家为什么写作拿不到高分，根源只有一个——错误太多。很多错误自己都不知道。

NO.5 仿写

第五个步骤就是仿写：什么叫仿写?就是模仿你背过的文章再写出一篇新文章。在背完一篇文章后，要想想这篇文章有什么精彩的词组、词汇和句型可以使用。然后换一个话题，把这篇作文用一下，用里面词汇、词组和句型去构思另一篇文章。

写作的注意点和技巧：写作首要的是，一、不跑题;二、字数达到要求;三、字迹整洁工整;四、少有语病。

这些是很基本的要求，考试的时候就要好好落实。比如，拿到作文题目后要审题。在写的过程中注意字数的限制，不要写太多，会扣分的，字数不够也会扣分。所以实在不行就写完一段话，停下来数一数字数。字迹工整可能短期内提高不了。只要你比平时稍慢一点写字母，就会写得比较整洁。要知道老师的印象分是很重要的。病句的避免技巧就是，凡是你想的过程中感觉别扭的句子，多半就是病句。干脆不要写出来，换一种形式去表达。不要追求好词，要追求准确性。

在考前，小作文的提高是非常快的。方法就是分析小作文的类型。应用文写作部分(小作文)考查内容包括投诉信、咨询信、道歉信、求职信等信函类应用文，而且涵盖报告、通知、海报等告示类应用文。不同类型的作文，要自己总结模版。小作文是完全可以准备模版的，其作用也是常明显。一定要注意：总结出自己的模板。

True Happiness

"Life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness." The authors of the American Declaration proclaimed happiness to be one of the essential rights that make life worth living.William James,the first American psychologist,echoed this emphasis on happiness:"If we were to ask the question:What is human lifes chief concern?One of the answers we should receive would be:It is happiness." Every philosophical and religious system has offered its pathway to happiness for the individual and the group.Happiness has been related to pleasure,refuge from pain,intellectual contemplation,union with God,friendship,children,wealth,honor,successful activity,and even state burial with statues!Today,scientists have joined the dialogue to seek answers about what contributes to happiness or,as they call it,"subjective well-being".

If happiness is activity in accordance with excellence,it is reasonable that it should be in accordance with the highest excellence.– Aristotle The concept of happiness--while difficult to define-- is obviously here to stay.But the desire for happiness can set up expectations that are often hard to fulfill.The right to pursue happiness was conceived of as an inalienable right; the entitlement that everyone be happy was never promised.As captured by Eric Hoffer,a misguided search we hope to provide a framework that will guide you in your personal pursuit of happiness. 真正的快乐

“生活、自由和追求幸福的权利.”研究报告的撰写者们宣布美国声明是一个幸福的基本权利,让生活有价值.威廉·詹姆斯,第一个美国心理学家,回荡强调幸福:"如果我们问这个问题:“什么是人类的生活的主要关心的事吗?答案之一我们应该接受应该是:“这是happiness.”哲学和宗教系统都提供了它的通往个人和幸福

这次月考结束了，我觉得英语成绩不太理想。因为总分才127。5，而且还是加上附加分以后的成绩。自我很不满意，相信老师您也是吧！这次必须要好好反思自我到底哪里做得不好。最近我觉得自我的表现也比较差，A组的作文很少交，而且上课也不是很专心，总是和旁边的同学开小差，害得连旁边同学的成绩也一同退步了。背书那方面也不是很用心，记单词短语也马马虎虎，笔记抄了就算，也没有用心去记去背，所以导致这次月考的退步。

从试卷上分析，听力扣了2。5分，比以前都有进步。而单项选取、语法选取、完型填空这些题都是全对的。比较以前算是有很大的进步，因为之前做语法选取和完形填空总会错那么一两题。但阅读题失分就比较严重。错了三题，扣了6分。可能是考试时不够仔细，又比较焦急怕后面的题做不完，所以导致出现了错误。但是最糟糕的还是二卷的部分，作文满分十五分，自我竟然才得了八分。除了有点惊讶外，还有点后悔。后悔没有每一天写好Ａ组的日记，自我的语法错误又错得离谱。可能作文的资料还有点欠缺，而且我看高分的同学的作文字数都写好多，我的字数才她们的一半。所以才丢掉了这么多分。完成句子和单词填空这方面完成的也比较好，就因为完成句子没有注意时态被老师扣了分，虽然没有全对但相比前几次都是有所进步的。附加题部分就做得比较一般，才对了６个。做的时候不是很懂文章的意思，不会的那些都是乱选上去的，所以觉得完型填空这方面还是要多多加强练习才行。不然下次月考又又完型填空附加题，我就好吃亏了。

本人在今后的学习计划是继续坚持做阅读理解和努力背单词，争取能听写都能全对。保证以后认真落实每一个知识点，多点看笔记本和多记笔记里面的知识点，把此刻不会的都补回来，做阅读理解的时候再认真谨慎一点，在保证做题目的速度的同时也要保证正确率。有不会的知识点要及时问问同学或老师您，要及时解决当天课堂上的疑惑，写好课堂的反思，及时给您反馈意见。Ａ组作文要天天坚持写，就算再怎样样也得每个星期写几篇，作文写得太差，不写真的不能提高作文的分数。还有做好笔记，要及时抄，不能拖到回家的时候再抄。还有要整理和背好笔记，因为笔记真的挺重要的。上课必须务必要专心，坚决不和旁边的同学讲话或者开小差，不能影响别人同时自我又听不到老师您讲课。作业也要自我认认真真地写，不能因为一时的懒惰就去抄袭别人的作业。最后就是要在早读时大声并有感情帝朗读好英语，为听说考试做好准备。要好好对待英语，努力学好英语，时刻提醒自我英语需要进步。我不会让老师失望的。

“君了报仇，十年不晚”

——题记

在一个深秋无月的夜晚里，随着小孩“哇哇”啼哭声，樱花十二剑被黄袍派抓走。

一天天的过去，小孩不知不觉的长在了，樱花十二剑却仍不见身影，小孩他妈知道孩他爸一去不复返，决定教小孩练剑，取江湖之名为智俦(俦是仇的谐音，主要是希望他长大后，通过他的聪明才智来为樱花十二剑报仇雪恨)。

智俦是一个既听话又聪明机智的天才，每天早起跟母亲练剑。

开始，母亲先教他剑术的基本功，由于智俦以勤学苦练，不懂就问的缘故，经过短暂的一段时间，他把学到的不但练熟而且还刻骨铭心，借此让母亲欣慰。

智俦不停的温习学过的剑术，同时又跟母亲学习新的剑术。母亲虽然是一个当时了不起的江湖女侠，但她的剑术总是有限，没有多长的时间就被智俦学去了。母亲为了自己的愿望和对儿子的期望，把樱花十二剑遗留下的唯一财产——《樱花十二剑》送给了智俦。

智俦得之似宝，如饥似喝，不舍昼夜的练剑，在这期间他虽然遇到了不少的艰难困苦，他始终坚信，“没有比人更高的山，没有比脚更长的路，没有走不过的桥，只有被困难击倒的人”。凭着他坚强的毅力，最终练成了樱花十二剑。

他认为，父亲虽然是当地的江湖豪杰，“只是天外有天，人外有人”，我要学会更多的剑术，为报仇打好坚实的基础。

智俦拜别母亲后，打好行包，带着母亲送给他的那把宝剑上路了。智俦翻过千山万岭，来到了一个苹果林，里面住着一位年近八旬的老头，头发发白，胡须微长，手握一剑，还在练剑，智俦被这种精神所打动，报仇的欲望更加强烈。

经过几天的接触交往才知那位老人年轻时就是位江湖之杰，有一手好剑术，被当地人称为“剑仙”。

从那以后，智俦就开始跟剑仙学剑，由于他有一定的基础又加上勤奋好学，经过一年多的时间，把“剑仙”的剑术学到手后便谢辞了师父。

智俦回家之时正是深秋。

和母亲商量，决定在父亲被抓的那天为父亲报仇。

报仇的日子终于盼到了，智俦带上宝剑上路了。

他来到黄袍派大门口，却没有门卫，他小心翼翼的进了大门，看不见门卫，却听到欢乐的笑声从后院传来。

他顺着声音传来的方向慢慢走去，发现一个五十岁左右的江湖人物坐在中间，周围坐着他的属下，在欢乐的痛饮，旁边有一个大铁笼子里有一个人清瘦的人——原来他们在庆祝20周年。

等到他们喝到悠悠然飘飘然不知所以时，报仇之时已到。

智俦从花草中一跃，手握宝剑直刺，没有任何防御的黄袍派头领被智俦用剑尖指着把父亲放出。

怕死的头领命令手下把樱花十二剑放走。樱花十二剑刚来到他儿子身旁，头领已离开了人世界，登上地狱之路。

智俦三口从此相聚。

在英语考试之前，看看宿舍里的人，大家似乎都有一些无法控制的忧愁，似乎对于英语考试难以接受，只不过只是期末考试是不得不接受的任务!

不过经过两个小时左右的紧张考试之后，我们几个人突然之间释放自己了，有一些东西就是这样，例如期末考试，开始考试之前总是担心成绩，可是一旦考试结束，所有的问题一下子都没有了，事情已经是定局了，即使是再伤心也无法改变!

我的舍友开始看视频了，今天是鹿鼎记更新的日子，还有一些其他的电视剧，估计现在早就已经更新出来了，所以在考试之后我们就需要恢复平常的生活，看看电视剧消磨时间，似乎没有经历过考试一样，只不过没有经历和已经经历过一样!

英语对于太多人而言太难了，我就是其中一个人，其他人也一样，所以在考试之前不得不担心自己的成绩，只不过现在担心也没有什么意思了，所以还不如放松下来，因为接下来还有其他科目考试，所以我们不能把伤心留给后面!

In 2014, a show called Where Are We Going, Dad was popular around China, in the show, five famous stars and dads with their children went to the countryside to experience the life.

This is the first time for the audience can look at the celebrities’ children, the kids are so lovely that all the audiences love them. Now a new show which is similar to the mentioned show becomes a new hot topic, but this time, half audience love the stars’ kids, the ones who don’t like them think that the kids are not as lovely as the ones before, even look ugly. So the audience speaks bad words in the Weibo, showing their dislike. As an outsider, I think it is so cruel to the kids, they are so young and innocent, they don’t know about the world, why should they deserve those vicious words.

Imagine if they are your kids, what will you do? People should be mercy to the kids.

在2014年，一个叫《爸爸去哪儿》的节目火爆全中国，在节目中，五个著名的星爸和他们的孩子下乡体验生活。

这是观众第一次有机会观看名人的孩子，这些孩子都很可爱，所有的观众都喜欢他们。现在一个新的类似的节目成为了焦点，但是这一次，只有一半的观众喜欢明星的孩子，不喜欢的人觉得有些孩子不像之前的可爱，长得不好看。因此观众在微博上对这些孩子留下恶言，以此来表示他们的不喜欢。作为一名局外人，我觉得这对孩子来说很残酷，他们是那么的年轻和天真，对世界都了解不深，为什么他们要承受这样恶毒的话。

想象一下，如果这是你的孩子，你会怎么做呢?人们应该对孩子仁慈点。

Everyone has his favorite teacher, so do I. My favourite teacher is Miss Wei, our English teacher. We felt English very difficult when we began to study English. Miss Wei had a good idea to solve the problem. One day, Miss Wei came into the classroom with some fruits, such as apples, bananas, and oranges. She said: “Today we are going to learn the names of the fruits. You can eat the fruits if you can tell me their names in English. ”All the students listened carefully and studied hard. Someone even stood up to answer questions. Class was over, and the fruits were all eaten. From then on, I am more and more interested in English, and I want to say from my heart: “ Thank you, Miss Wei!”

Miss Li often sticks to have lessons when she is ill , She looked weak, but still beautiful. Miss Li love us very much, she teaches us so carefully .I think she is a good teacher. We all love her, too.

I think teachers are like candles , giving off light for others by burning themselves 。

每个人都有他最喜欢的老师,我也是。我最喜欢的老师是魏老师,我们的英语老师。我们觉得英语很难,当我们开始学习英语。魏老师有一个好主意来解决这个问题。有一天,魏老师走进教室和一些水果,如苹果,香蕉,橘子。她说:“今天我们要学习这些水果的名字。你可以吃水果,如果你能告诉我他们的名字在英语。“所有的学生都听得很认真,努力学习。有人甚至站起来回答问题。下课,水果都已经被吃掉了。从那时起,我越来越对英语感兴趣,从我的心,我想说:“谢谢你,韦小姐!”

李小姐经常坚持上课,当她病了,她看起来有些虚弱,但依然美丽。李小姐很爱我们,她教我们这么仔细。我认为她是一个好老师。我们都爱她。

我认为老师就像蜡烛,散发光为别人通过燃烧自己。

Li Ming studies in a high school, and this is his second year. In order to

get improved as soon as possible, he decided to study late every night. Usually,

he would go to sleep about 11 oclock, but the pressure made him couldnt sleep

well, so he kept study until 12 oclock. A month passed, Li Ming realized that

he didnt make progress, instead, he lag behind. He talked to his teacher and

the teacher told him that he needed to rest well and took it easy. Only the

student slept well would he have the energy to study and focus on his attention.

Li Ming did as the teacher said, indeed. It worked, he made progress and he

could thought quickly. Sleeping well is the very important way to improve study

efficiency.

一. 心理

古人云，不战而屈人之兵，很大程度上取决于心理因素。随着四六级考试改革的深入，会有，更新，更难的题目，包括作文题目出现，这样就要求我们有处惊不变的能力。即使是出现某种没有预料到的题型，考生也应该及时调整心态、从容不迫地应答。事实上，历史经验证明：题目要求越是高，难度越是大，考生的发挥余地也就越大。挑战和机遇是成正相关的。

二. 评分

知己知彼，百战不怠。熟悉老师的评分习惯，对于考生正常、甚至是超常发挥自身水平也十分有益。正常情况下，阅卷老师要领会贯彻考试规定的评分原则，依照文章的结构和语言水平进行评分。然而，除此以外，有“两个基本点”我们也需要给予足够的重视——闪光点和语法点。在一篇出类拔萃的范文中，我们往往可以看到像提问法、谚语总结法、从句、并列句、理由段公式、理由词汇、路线句型、插入语、名词化、和被动语态等等闪光点;而在一篇低分例文中，基本的语言错误则多得数不胜数。

三. 休息

考试迫在眉睫时，同学们往往容易进入一种临考状态。这种状态比较突出的表现是夜不能寐。尤其是在专业课和全国四六级考试纷至沓来的时候，很多同学更是发扬连续作战的精神，通宵达旦，头悬梁、锥刺骨。其实这对于像四六级考试这样的高强度考试而言是有百害而无一益的。道理很简单，四六级考试对于一个学生来说，不仅是一次英语水平的综合测试，也是一种意志力、甚至是体力的考验。没有良好的休息作为后盾，考生很难笑到最后。所以，保证充足的睡眠是最基本也是首要的应试技巧。

四. 营养

无庸置疑，营养的摄入在最后关头也是异常重要的一环。在保证充分睡眠的同时，食物是另一个“工夫在诗外”的客观因素。尤其是参加四级考试的同学，早餐一定要定时定量，不可或缺。一般来说，类似奶酪苏这样的奶制品外加一杯热牛奶或者热巧克力已经足以提供整个半天考试所需的热量，当然，这也因人而异。有些体质虚弱的同学也可以考虑服用一些如西洋参、鸡精这样的营养品。不过，安眠药等有副作用的药物一定要慎用，否则过犹不及。

五. 审题

磨刀不误砍柴工。在落笔前花两三分钟时间进行构思，既有利于理清行文思路、也避免了差之毫厘、失之千里的遗憾。尤其是在应对图表类作文时，我们更是要看清图表，牢牢把握各个数据的变化和相互关系，才能够下笔。否则张冠李戴，即使文章本身再不同凡响、语惊四座，也只会竹篮打水、甚至起到适得其反的效果。

六. 卷面

对于像作文这样的主观题而言，考生与阅卷老师从来就犹如搏弈，无形中彼此互动、相互影响。一个考生可以做的，首先是通过卷面给阅卷老师下意识地传达个人信息。用笔的颜色(深蓝色使人心情放松愉快)、粗细(粗线条给人以安全感)，整齐划一的格式(段首或一律顶格或一律空两格)，明了的段落感(每段空一行)，清晰的字数感(一行以十字为宜)，工整的字迹都会给任何阅读者留下深刻的正面印象，从而使考生先发制人、取得先机。

七. 结构

有始有终、首尾照应，是任何一篇好文章的基本标准之一，也是两大评分原则之一。如果说广大考生已经给第一段以足够重视的话，那么是不是大多数考生都意识到了理由段的条理和最后一段的呼应在全文中所具有的不可忽视的地位了呢?其实，要写好理由段，我们只需要注意表示启承转合的衔接词即可。而要写好结尾，最好的方法莫过于温故而知新，回顾第一段的大致内容了。

八. 表达

言之无文，行而不远。语言作为评分原则中的基本要素之一，在四六级作文评分的整个过程中具有决定性作用。有评分老师甚至断言：“It is not what you say, it is the way that you say it.”(重要的并不在于考生写了些什么，而在于考生是怎么表达的。)虽然这种说法本身似乎有失偏颇，可是参加过国际标准化英语考试的同学应该也听说过那么一句话，叫做：“Give the monkey exactly what he wants.”(给阅卷老师最想要的。)，不是吗?譬如同样是描述数据，一些同学拘泥于图表本身，动辄按部就班地引用图表上现成的数字和年代，其实这都是图表作文的忌讳。聪明的同学引而不用，他们常喜欢用倍数、分数、小数、百分比、或者一些动词(double / triple / quadruple)来表现极端数据，动态数据以及他们的相异之处。

九. 检查

行百里者半九十。一篇成功的作文少不了反复推敲、一再修改。然而，由于考试时间和条件等诸多因素的限制，考生绝对需要慎重对待作文的检查和修改。这里，我不得不提考生检查作文时的三大“通病”，即，数字数、孤芳自赏、和做结构与内容上的修改。我们必须明确：考试作文的润色和修改只需要达到三个目的即可：1. 拼写正确，看文章中是否有汉字、多余符号、糊乱涂改、划线、和错别字;2. 搭配正确;和3. 语法正确，特别是人称、时态、和单复数的三一致。

鲁迅先生说过，世界上本没有路，走的人多了也就成了路。我们要善于在学习实践中发现、总结和运用规律，这样才能够在复习迎考的过程中事半功倍，百尺竿头、更进一步。路漫漫其修远兮，愿以此文抛砖引玉。

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?

今天我们知道了考试成绩，我数学考了92，语文49，英语44。数学有一道题是没有见过的题型，我就是这道题做错了，是因为没有看懂题，而且没有动脑筋去想题，所以这道题我就答错了；数学其他题我都是见过的，但是有几个题还是打错了，是因为粗心了，其实我是会做的。

语文错了两道题是因为我粗心了，并不是我不会。

英语错的题是没有记清单词的意思，所以打错了，还有一个题我不知道peaches是什么意思。这次考试我考的不算很好，主要的原因是我太粗心了，而且遇到没见过的题没有去思考，我要改掉这两个最大的毛病，希望接下来可以取得好成绩。

Pick up a book, read the sentence, there are a few words I also full of love, full of nostalgia.

This sentence will become one of my motto, while I was reading, but the work is at hand, so Im going to shop for your own life, a road to success.

拿起一本书，读到里面的句子，有几句我还满喜欢，满留恋的。

如：树的方向，由风决定;人的方向，自己决定。所以，我一定要——以今日之我，胜昨日之我;以明日之我，胜今日之我!

不错，命运是掌握在自己手中，只有自己能去主宰它。

同时，珍惜好每一天的一分一秒，不要让自己觉得过得不充实，也不要毫无目标的生存着，这是我所感受到的，也在时刻的自我提醒。

读到了丁远峙着的《方与圆》中的内容，有一句是这么写的：人生成功的金钥匙就是相信自己，勇敢行动，对人生、事业怀有无比的热忱，如果你把握了这三把金钥匙，那么成功之路就展现在你眼前……

这一句话将成为我的座右铭之一，虽然我还在读书，但距离工作已是近在咫尺了，所以我要努力，为自己的人生铺一条成功的道路。

the family had just moved to rhode island, and the young woman was feeling a little melancholy on that sunday in may. after all, it was mothers day -- and 800 miles separated her from her parents in ohio.

一家人刚移居罗德岛。5月的那个星期天， 年轻女人感到有点儿忧伤。毕竟， 这一天是母亲节─而她却与俄亥俄州的父母亲遥距800英里。

she had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy mothers day, and her mother had mentioned how colorful the yard was now that spring had arrived. as they talked, the younger woman could almost smell the tantalizing aroma of purple lilacs hanging on the big bush outside her parentsback door.

她那天早上给母亲打去电话， 祝母亲节日愉快。随后， 她的母亲向她提起， 因为春天已经来临， 所以院子里的色彩是多么绚丽。在她们通话的当儿， 年轻女人几乎可以闻到悬垂在父母亲后门外大灌木丛上的紫丁香醉人的芬芳。

later, when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he popped up from his chair. i know where we can find you all you want, he said. get the kids and cmon.

so off they went, driving the country roads of northern rhode island on the kind of day only mid-may can produce：sparkling sunshine, unclouded azure skies and vibrant newness of the green growing all around. they went past small villages and burgeoning housing developments, past abandoned apple orchards, back to where trees and brush have devoured old homesteads.

后来， 她向丈夫说起她是如何怀念那些紫丁香时， 他突然从椅子上跃起。我知道在哪儿能找到你想要的东西， 他说， 带上孩子， 走吧。

于是， 他们就出发了， 驱车行驶在罗德岛北部的乡村小路上， 那种天气只有5月中旬才会有：闪亮的阳光、蔚蓝色的晴空以及生机勃勃、随处可见的绿意。他们穿过一座座小村庄和一座座拔地而起的房屋， 穿过废弃的苹果园， 来到了树林和嗄敬匝谟车睦吓

where they stopped, dense thickets of cedars and ju nipers and birch crowded the roadway on both sides. there wasnt a lilac bush in sight.

come with me , the man said. over that hill is an old cellar hole, from somebodys farm of years ago, and there are lilacs all round it. the man who owns this land said i could poke around here anytime. im sure he wont mind if we pick a few lilacs.

他们停下车。车道两边长满了茂盛的雪松、杜松和白桦树。眼前没有一棵紫丁香。

随我来， 那个男人说， 翻过那座小山， 有个老地窖， 几年前是一个人的农场， 四周长满了紫丁香。这块地的主人说我可以随时到这儿来闲逛。我相信， 要是我们采几束紫丁香， 他不会介意。

before they got halfway up the hill, the fragrance of the lilacs drifted down to them, and the kids started running. soon, the mother began running, too, until she reached the top. there, far from view of passing motorists and hidden from encroaching civilization, were the towering lilacs bushes, so laden with the huge, cone-shaped flower clusters that they almost bent double. with a smile, the young woman rushed up to the nearest bush and buried her face in the flowers, drinking in the fragrance and the memories it recalled.

还没等他们到达半山腰， 紫丁香的芬芳已经向他们飘了过来。于是， 孩子们开始奔跑。不久， 那位母亲也开始跑起来， 直至到达山顶。

那里， 远离了过往司机的视野， 避开了纷扰的文明世界， 高耸的丁香花丛开满了硕大的圆锥形的串串花束， 几乎把花茎压成了两折。那个年轻女人微笑着冲到最近的一处花丛， 把脸埋在鲜花中， 啜饮着芳香， 陶醉在重新唤起的记忆中。

while the man examined the cellar hole and tried to explain to the children what the house must have looked like, the woman drifted among the lilacs. carefully, she chose a sprig here, another one there, and clipped them with her husbands pocket knife. she was in no hurry, relishing each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure. finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. while the kids chattered and the man drove, the woman sat smiling, surrounded by her flowers, a faraway look in her eyes.

在那个男人察看地窖试图向孩子们解释这座房子必定是什么样子的当儿， 那个女人不由自主地走进了紫丁香花丛。她小心翼翼地从这儿摘一枝， 那儿挑一束， 然后用丈夫的袖珍小刀将它们剪下来。她不慌不忙， 像欣赏稀有珍宝似地欣赏着每一朵花。

然而， 他们终于还是返回了汽车， 走上了回家的路。孩子们叽叽喳喳说个不停， 那个男人驾着车， 那个女人坐在那儿面带微笑， 她周围放满了鲜花， 眼睛里充满着向往。

when they were within three miles of home, she suddenly shouted to her husband, stop the car. stop right here! the man slammed on the brakes. before he could ask her why she wanted to stop, the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a nearby grassy slope with the lilacs still in her arms. at the top of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors strolling with relatives or sitting on the porch.

当他们离家不足3英里时， 她突然向丈夫大声喊道：停车， 就在这里停车!

那个男人嘎地刹住车。还没等他问为什么， 女人就已经下了车， 匆匆走向附近的草坡， 怀里仍抱着紫丁香。山顶上是一家疗养院， 因为这是一个美丽的春日， 所以病人正在室外和亲友溜达或坐在门廊上。

the young woman went to the end of the porch, where an elderly patient was sitting in her wheelchair, alone, head bowed, her back to most of the others. across the porch railing went the flowers, in to the lap of the old woman. she lifted her head, and smiled. for a few moments, the two women chatted, both aglow with happiness, and then the young woman turned and ran back to her family. as the car pulled away, the woman in the wheelchair waved, and clutched the lilacs.

那个年轻女人走到门廊的尽头， 只见那里有一个上了年纪的病人正坐在轮椅里， 独自一人， 低着头， 背对着其他人。年轻女人越过门廊栏杆， 将鲜花放在了老太太的膝间。老太太抬起头， 露出了笑脸。两个女人聊了一会儿， 都兴高采烈。随后， 那个年轻女人转身跑回到家人的身边。当汽车开动时， 坐在轮椅里的那个女人挥动着手， 手里紧紧地握着那束紫丁香花。

mom, the kids asked, who was that?why did you give her our flowers?is she somebodys mother?the mother said she didnt know the old woman. but it was mothers day, and she seemed so alone, and who wouldnt be cheered by flowers?besides, she added, i have all of you, and i still have my mother, even if she is far away. that woman needed those flowers more than i did.

this satisfied the kids, but not the husband. the next day he purchased half a dozen young lilacs bushes and planted them around their yard, and several times since then he has added more.

妈妈， 孩子们问， 那人是谁呀?你为什么把我们的花送给她?她是谁的母亲呀?他们的母亲说， 她不认识那个老太太， 但今天是母亲节， 她看起来是那么孤独， 而鲜花会给任何人带来好心情。再说， 她补充道， 我拥有你们， 而且我还有自己的母亲， 即使她离我很远。那个女人比我更需要那些鲜花。

孩子们得到了满意的答案， 但她的丈夫却没有。第二天， 他买了半打紫丁香幼苗， 栽到了院子四周;而且从那以后， 每隔一段时间， 他就会增加一些。

i was that man. the young mother was, and is, my wife. now, every may, our own yard is redolent with lilacs. every mothers day our kids gather purple bouquets. and every year i remember that smile on a lonely old womans face, and the kindness that put the smile there.

我就是那个男人， 那个年轻母亲是我妻子。如今， 每年5月， 我们自家的院子都会散发出浓烈的紫丁香的芬芳。每逢母亲节， 我们的孩子都要采撷紫丁香花束。而且每年我都会记起一位孤独的老太太脸上露出的笑容， 以及笑容里呈现出的那种慈祥。
