Answer 1

Everyone has a desire for success while success only belongs to the hard-working people. As the old saying goes, “no pains, no gains.”
I failed in the last exam. So discouraged was I that I didn’t want to do anything. I didn’t do exercises and even attend to what the teacher said in the classes. Later on, I found things got even worse. Meanwhile, a great many students made every effort to study. Only then did I realize I was wrong and that success will not wait for me. So I made the best of every minute to catch up with my classmates. Now I’m progressing in my studies. I feel confident that my effort will pay off eventually.
My story makes me believe failure is temporary for a diligent person but permanent for the lazy. One’s efforts will surely be rewarded with success no matter how big or small the success is.

試題分析：考查開放性作文。開放性作文給出了一個話題，并有部分的文字提示。給考生自由發(fā)揮的余地較大。對于考生的綜合能力要求較高，要求考生有很強的謀篇布局的能力和組織要點的能力。在完成開放性作文時，首先要選擇自己熟悉的短語或者句型，在你的能力范圍之內(nèi)，選擇句式時要賦予變化，因為這樣你才可以更好的駕馭。同時也要選擇合適的連接詞，把各個要點組織成一個完整的整體。
【亮點說明】范文用了一些常見短語： have a desire for 渴望，belong to屬于，make every effort to do努力做…，make the best of 充分利用，catch up with趕上， pay off成功，有回報，還有范文中的句式也很出彩：As the old saying goes, “no pains, no gains.”這句話用了非限制性定語從句，So discouraged was I that I didn’t want to do anything.這句話用了倒裝句，I didn’t do exercises and even attend to what the teacher said in the classes. 這句話用了賓語從句， Only then did I realize I was wrong and that success will not wait for me. 這句話也用了倒裝句，. One’s efforts will surely be rewarded with success no matter how big or small the success is.這句話用了讓步狀語從句。
