1、高中英语新高考-英语作文:我来给鸡汤类的英语写作一剑封喉!背景各种大小模拟考试,我把作文题分类成两个:一是问题,二是人品(绰号:鸡汤)。而后者占了70%,例如:dream and effortindependentcooperationlife choicehow to deal with frustrationpersonal practice我希望读者能够坚持读完我下面的写作简要指导,应该对您有一些启发。作文指导请阅读下面短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。The first day of school our professor introduced himself and
2、challenged us to get to know someone we didnt already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being. She said, Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I m eightyseven years
3、old. Can I give you a hug I laughed and enthusiastically responded, Of course you may. and she gave me a giant squeeze.I always dreamed of having a college education and now Im getting one. She told me. After class we walked to the student union building and shared a chocolate milk shake. We became
4、instant friends. Every day for the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always amazed at this time machine as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. Ill never forget what she taught
5、us. She was introduced and stepped up to the podium. We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. Youve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and dont even know it.At the years end Rose finished
6、the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. 写作内容1、以约30个词概括短文的要点;2、然后以约120个就“Dream and effort”这个主题发表看法,并包括如下要点:(1)谈谈你对Rose演讲内容的理解和感想。(2)结合实际谈谈你的梦想、具体困难和圆梦行动。我的感悟一、鸡汤类的作文题存在通用性这篇作文本质上就是写梦想。其实dream和purpose, ideal, goal, ambition是一家的
7、,下次换成谈谈goal,不要说没有写过。我们要做的就是,需要把鸡汤类的话题归类,不要做很多无用功。二、概括类的鸡汤文往往是记叙文,记住就一个公式:某人或某物做了某事。这篇文章涉及到两个人:Rose, IRose在本文做了四件事:87岁继续大学教育;和我分享个人经验和智慧;发表演讲;去世我在本文就做了一件事:成为Rose朋友这样一想就好办了:Rose continued her college education at the age of 87.Rose liked to share her experience and wisdom with me.Rose made an inspring
8、 speech.I make good friends with Rose.下面要做的就是把它们连在一起,我一再跟学生强调:概括类的文字务必要简洁,不要用复杂的句子,也不要用什么修辞。因为概括本身就是为了让读者一下子明白文章讲了什么。你要是想体现你的写作才华,就在下面的120词中发挥吧。Rose, 87 years old, continued collegeeducation and often shared experience and wisdom with me, her close friend.Though she died soon after graduation, her s
9、peech impressed everyone.三、鸡汤类的作文,谈感想就两个:impressive, moved。谈理解,首先要具体为:它的功能或重要性。感想:I am deeplymoved and impressed by Roses speech. She gave top priority to the important role our dreams andeffort play in the daily life.重要性的思维就鸡汤而言,无非:动力、激情、幸福等。(1) It is a source of Motivation, encouragingus to study
10、hard.(2) It gives us hope and arouses enthusiasm/ happiness.(3) However, without effort, our dream will be in vain / be the castle in the air.需要把三个句子拓展开来:A dream is something that you feel happy to hold on to. People with dreams love what they do, regardless of economic rewards,power or celebrity. S
11、o it is a source of motivation, giving us endless confidence and firing/arousing our great enthusiasm. If people lack dreams, they would never reach full potential. Dreams imply hope, discipline,courage and many other qualities. In many cases, it can open up opportunities for people. However, dream
12、and effort should go hand in hand, or dream will become thecastle in the air.有学生一看拓展这么多,傻眼了,他觉得他脑袋想不到这么多,那么请看下面第四条。四、鸡汤类的思维关键词存在互补和共存关系。(这就是我在课堂上的最新发现)请读者认真看我上面标了红色的词汇,你会发现幸福、爱、自信、激情、希望、潜力、勇气、机遇等本质上差不多。为什么这么说呢?我举例:有了梦想(dream),人生就会有希望(hope),有了激情(enthusiasm),有了自信(confidence)等等。这里面的逻辑应该是很清晰的,不需要我解释,但是,
13、我这样换一下:有了希望(hope),人生就会有梦想(dream),有了激情(enthusiasm),有了自信(confidence)等等。有了自信(confidence),人生就会有梦想(dream),有了激情(enthusiasm),希望(hope)等等。敢情说这些鸡汤词就是一家人啊?有道是:不是一家人,不进一家门。这对我们的启发就是,你会了其中的一个话题写作,那么其它的话题都是同理的。我经常听人说,“自信”有什么好谈的,那是因为他的思维没有打开。现在你知道了这个道理:幸福、爱、自信、激情、希望、潜力、勇气、机遇等必须打包出售!老子说,一生二,二生三,三生万物。这里就是这个道理,譬如:爱生勇
14、气,勇气生希望,希望生万物五、凡是举例分两种,时间紧张、思维卡壳、想得19分保底,请选第一种:以自己为例;否则,以名人为例(前提是你得提前准备)。(1)以我为例的写法分三层:开始(写困难)、转机(有了希望)、结局(喜大普奔)、感慨(鸡汤照应)开始:I have dreamed of being a translator since childhood. But in the past few years, I have had much trouble in memorizing new words. It almost cost me confidence and enthusiasm.转机
15、:I decided to make it a routine to read novels every day.结局:Practice makes perfect. My efforts paid off and my dream came true.总结:I realize that only with dream and effort can I realize my dream.(2)别人的例子说到这里,我不得不说,这些外国名人的名字是必须记住的:Helen Keller, Thomas Alva Edison, Columbus, Bill Gates, Jobs。如果实在记不住他们
16、,记住中国的张海迪,周总理等。理由是:HelenKeller和张海迪可以体现此类鸡汤作文:自信,勇气,梦想,信心,对待挫折,坚持,总之只要是优秀人性都可以放在他们身上;Columbus发现了新大陆,体现勇气、梦想;Bill Gates, Jobs体现创新、慈善、执着、科技达人;周总理的为中华之崛起而读书,体现了理想、方向、奉献、执着等。Helen Keller, without dreams inspired by her teacher, would not have “seen” so many things through mere touch, and hence would not
17、have moved the world by her touching story. In the same way, Zhang Haidi, given her poor physical condition, would not have become a well-known writer without her ambition to overcome any difficulty. With dreams encouraging us, we are moving forward more eagerly and confidently.最可取的是下面的句式:A striking
18、 example is Premier Zhou, who in the youth dreamed of “studying for a prosperous and rising China”. It was this dream that motivated him to strive to achieve the liberation of our country.最后总结:说起来鸡汤文就这五句话,但是不要,不要,不要写成模板文,你需要对于鸡汤文多在平时总结一些好句子,譬如我写本文的时候就用到:Dreams can be an enthusiastic love of life that puts a sparkle in our eyes. / Dreams can smooth the wrinkles from our souls.
