必修2 Unit 1 Cultural relics Warming up &Reading教学设计品味人生1、不管鸟的翅膀多么完美,如果不凭借空气,鸟就永远飞不到高空。

想象力是翅膀,客观实际是空气,只有两方面紧密结合,才能取得显着成绩。

2、想停下来深情地沉湎一番,怎奈行驶的船却没有铁锚;想回过头去重温旧梦,怎奈身后早已没有了归途。

因为时间的钟摆一刻也不曾停顿过,所以生命便赋予我们将在汹涌的大潮之中不停地颠簸。

3、真正痛苦的人,却在笑脸的背后,流着别人无法知道的眼泪,生活中我们笑得比谁都开心,可是当所有的人潮散去的时候,我们比谁都落寂。

4、温暖是飘飘洒洒的春雨;温暖是写在脸上的笑影;温暖是义无反顾的响应;温暖是一丝不苟的配合。

5、幸福,是一种人生的感悟,一种个人的体验。

也许,幸福是你风尘仆仆走进家门时亲切的笑脸;也许,幸福是你卧病床上百无聊赖时温馨的问候;也许,幸福是你屡遭挫折心灰意冷时劝慰的话语;也许,幸福是你历经艰辛获得成功时赞赏的掌声。

关键的是,你要有一副热爱生活的心肠,要有一个积极奋进的目标,要有一种矢志不渝的追求。

这样,你才能感受到幸福。

6、母爱是迷惘时苦口婆心的规劝;母爱是远行时一声殷切的叮咛;母爱是孤苦无助时慈祥的微笑。

7、淡淡素笺,浓浓墨韵,典雅的文字,浸染尘世情怀;悠悠岁月,袅袅茶香,别致的杯盏,盛满诗样芳华;云淡风轻,捧茗品文,灵动的音符,吟唱温馨暖语;春花秋月,红尘阡陌,放飞的思绪,漫过四季如歌。

读一段美文,品一盏香茗,听一曲琴音,拾一抹心情。

8、尘缘飞花,人去楼空,梦里花落为谁痛?顾眸流盼,几许痴缠。

把自己揉入了轮回里,忆起,在曾相逢的梦里;别离,在泪眼迷朦的花落间;心碎,在指尖的苍白中;淡落,在亘古的残梦中。

在夜莺凄凉的叹息里,让片片细腻的柔情,哽咽失语在暗夜的诗句里。

9、用不朽的“人”字支撑起来的美好风景,既有“虽体解吾犹未变兮”的执着吟哦,也有“我辈岂是蓬蒿人”的跌宕胸怀;既有“我以我血荐轩辕”的崇高追求,也有“敢教日月换新天”的豪放气魄。
