英语优秀作文欣赏及名人名言

看图作文：优秀作文欣赏（话题：下定决心才能成功）

In the picture we can see that a snail finds a tree with green leaves on the top. Attracted by the delicious leaves, the snail immediately sets about climbing. It tries its best but still fails to get to the top. It falls off the tree and bumps(碰撞) into the ground, painful and dizzy. Nevertheless(然而), it doesn’t lose heart. It raises its spirits(打起精神) to try once more, successfully gaining its delicious dish this time.

The meaning revealed/conveyed in the picture is evident, that is,we are supposed to be determined enough to reach our goals. It is the strong mind that contributes to the little snail’s success. Without determination, it would be impossible for it to get the fascinating leaves. The same goes for(对于…...也一样) us human beings. As the proverb goes, “Man is made of blood and flesh, and a special fiber(纤维) called determination.” Determination is the precursor(先驱) to success.

From my perspective（视角）, all of us ought to have determination. It helps us to be strong-minded to overcome the obstacles ahead, especially when we are on a tough road. With determination, we can be motivated(促动，激发) to chase our dreams(追逐梦想) and to perform better in study. Hence(因此) don’t be afraid of failure — be determined! Remember, our aims will be unquestionably attained!

二. 如何写高分作文？

一篇作文的优劣，无论是记叙文、议论文、说明文还是夹叙夹议，都可以简单地从以下几个方面是否运用适当甚至是活用来判断（以上面这篇作文为例）：

1. 动、名、形、副、连接词等等)：fail to do sth., reveal, convey, go, motivate, perform, attain; delicious, painful, dizzy, evident, determined, fascinating, strong-minded, tough; immediately, successfully, especially, unquestionably; nevertheless, that is, from my perspective, hence 词的运用应丰富、多样，而且不能只限于动词和名词，形容词和副词的使用能增加文章的准确性和生动性；连接词的使用可以使文章结构严谨、自然流畅、富有节奏。

2. set about doing, fall off the tree, bump into the gro und, lose heart, raise one’s spirits, be supposed to, reach one’s goals, contribute to(促成)，overcome the obstacles ahead, chase one’s dreams, perform better in study

请尽量使用高中学的短语！初中学的短语相对比较浅显，不足以成为亮点。

3. with… on the top, It is … that…, Without…, it would be…，The same goes for, As a/the proverb goes

作文还可运用同学们平时学的定语从句、状语从句、名词性从句、强调句、倒装句等等。但不可只用长句。长句表述具体，说理严密；短剧简洁明快、精炼扼要，明白易懂。既然各有所长，在写作时就应根据实际需要，交替使用简单句、并列句和复合句，以达到“长短错落有致，句式丰富多样”的效果。

4. attracted(状语), gaining(状语), revealed/conveyed(定语)

非谓语动词简洁明快、节奏紧凑、表意灵巧，是帮你拿高分的必杀技。

5. 使用科学家、作家、诗人、政治家（如莎士比亚、泰戈尔、海伦凯勒、培根、肯尼迪等等）的名人名言或经典名篇中的佳句，绝对“高端大气上档次，低调奢华有内涵”，对于提升立意具有立竿见影之功效。（注：上面的学生习作第二段引用的谚语恐怕是学生自己编滴^_^）谚语言简意赅、寓意深刻、富有哲理和智慧，也是写作必备的必杀技之一（但是如Where there is a will, there is a way. 或Rome was not built in a day.或Every coin has two sides.已经被用得太滥，用在作文中不但不会帮你加分，反而会影响作

文分数的提升），大家平时一定要注意积累和挑选。

P.S.: 虽然高考的词数要求是120左右，但近几年高考的评卷往往是写少了扣分，写多不扣，所以请尽量把试卷的横线写满，或至多剩一、两行，写多更能体现考生词汇的丰富以及语言运用能力，但切不可写得多于提供的横线。另外，一定要书写漂亮整洁，否则难拿高分！请尽量打草稿！
