第一篇：模拟高考英语作文
1.最近，出现了很多“最美......”，如“最美教师”，“最美司机”等等，模拟一篇高考作文。
Recently, a hot phrase “the most beautiful...” attracts more and more attention, which refers to a person who has done something moving others greatly.For instance, there are the most beautiful teacher, the most beautiful driver, and the most beautiful soldier.Their acts of heroism have moved numerous people.On the one hand, there’s no doubt that we should admire their courage and learn from them.Because it is they that strengthen our spiritual civilization.On the other hand, we should notice that some people lack the necessary public sense of responsibility.They don’t want to take care of others’ lives, even commit crimes to meet their own needs.As far as I’m concerned, everyone should try his/ her best to improve their moral level.Only in this way can we make a most beautiful society together.2.最近，小悦悦的事件引起了很多人的热议，模拟一篇高考作文谈谈自己的看法。
Recently, a little girl named Yueyue caught many people’s attention.She has passed away in an unbelievable way and all of us would feel sorry to her.On the one hand, we want to ask those eighteen people why they didn’t save her.On the other hand, some people even doubt that the old grandma did all this just in order to make herself famous.It’s obvious that with the development of economy, people are becoming more and more selfish.In their minds, it is none of their business to help others.Seeing danger, they always turn blind eye to this and leave quickly.In fact, everyone needs help in the world.You can imagine how terrible it is if we live alone.On the contrary, if we devote a little love and help to another, the world will become more and more beautiful.Since helping others is very important, some measures should be taken to cultivate the environment in the whole society.No matter whole you are and what you do, remember helping others is helping oneself.写英语作文时需要注意的问题
一、话题不会太空泛（跟语文不一样，不需要很有高度），多是具体的，非常贴近学生生活的；
二、注意题材、格式（近两年多是邮件、日记、回信等），再看看近两年山东卷高考真题范文；
三、作文最好分三到四段，一定注意字体，每个句首都想着用个连词（Although、Because、...）；
四、调整心态，尽量靠自己，珍惜重视每一分；
五、把几个常见短语，句型记住，考试时提醒自己一定要用上：
Nowadays/ recently/ With the rapid development of economy,...As we all know,...There is no doubt that...As a matter of fact,...== In fact,...As far as I’m concerned,...== In my opinion,...(说理时)First/ Second/ Besides/ Moreover/ In addition/ Therefore/ Last but not least On the contrary,...For example/ instance,...On the one hand,....On the other hand,...In a word,...Only in this way can we do...

第三篇：2012高考模拟材料作文
2012高考模拟材料作文“改变自己与改变世界”写作指导
作文题目
世界著名摇滚音乐家约翰·列侬说：“如果你不能改变自己，你就改变世界；如果你不能改变世界，你就改变自己。”
以上这段话引发了你怎样的思考？请联系生活体验和认识，写一篇文章，自拟标题，自选文体，不少于800字。
一、题意理解
（一）概念理解
（1）世界：不以人的主观意志为转移的客观存在；自己：指自己为人处世的态度、方式。
（2）改变：改换，更改；变化，使事物产生显著的差别。改变，要强调变化较大，不同于改良、改善。（3）约翰·列侬句子理解：
“如果你不能改变自己，你就改变世界”，意思是在你不能改变自己的情况下，你就改变世界。本句强调的是改变世界，这是一种勇者、有魄力者的表现。例如：马丁·路德·金不改变自己的理念，一生从事于反种族歧视，改变了黑人的处境；乔布斯不改变自己的性格，开发苹果改变了这个世界；爱因斯坦不改变自己的探究精神，发现了相对论，改变了世界；王安石不改变自己执拗的个性，以变法改变了宋朝的政治；毛泽东不改变自己的意志，缔造了新中国；等等。“如果你不能改变世界，你就改变自己。”意思是在客观情况无法改变的情况下，就改变自己。本句强调的是改变自己，这是一种智者的表现。例如：苏轼不能改变朝廷不重用他的客观现实，就改变自己的心态；林则徐面对无法改变的朝廷积弱局面，他改变自己投身造福百姓的民生中；刘伟不能改变的残疾的客观现实，改变自己的生活工作方式；旭日阳刚面对暂时无法改变的地位，以歌声来让自己快乐。
约翰·列侬的话提供了他对改变自己与改变世界关系的看法，结合提示语“以上这段话引起了你怎样的思考”来理解：写作者可以完全在列侬的看法内写作，也可以在列侬所讨论的话题范围内写作，即只要是谈“改变世界”、“改变自己”、“谈议二者”、“探究二者关系”四种中的任意一种均可。
（二）立意 1.符合题意
（1）主张“改变自己”，写足“改变”“自己”两个要素；可以谈改变自己的什么、为什么要改变自己、怎样改变自己
（2）主张“改变世界”，写足“改变”“世界”两个要素 可以谈改变世界的什么、为什么要改变世界、怎样改变世界。
（3）主张将“改变自己”与“改变世界”结合起来，写足“改变自己”与“改变世界”两个要素 2.基本符合题意
（1）泛泛谈“改变”
（2）简单提一下“改变自己”或“改变世界”，然后全力写坚强、乐观、战胜挫折等其他话题。3.偏离题意
（1）完全脱离“改变自己”或“改变世界”的论题（2）对“改变自己”或“改变世界”的理解完全失误
（二）文体选择
题目对文体的要求是“文体自选”，可以写议论文、记叙文、散文、应用文外包装文体等。只要达到了相关文体的要求即可。对于文体四不像者，从严扣分。议论文重点看观点是否鲜明突出，思路是否清晰，论据是否准确丰富，论证分析是否充分，语言是否有力度等。
记叙文重点关注中心是否准确鲜明，情节是否富有变化，描写是否生动，语言是否有优美等。
其他文体也是从内容、形式、语言、创新等方面去评价。
（三）其他
1．字数不足800字者，每不足50字扣1分。
2．错字第一个不扣分，第二个起每错1字扣1分，最高扣4分。3．缺标题扣2分，标题有错字扣1分。
4．不足600字者，最高35分；不足400字者，最高20分；不足200字者，最高10分。
5．卷面十分混乱、乱涂乱改者，扣2分。6．文体不清者，最高40分。

前言
生活中，有许多青少年走上社会后，对人、对事充满了牢骚，抱怨社会、抱怨环境。总觉得自己怀才不遇，社会不公。殊不知，这种消沉的态度，并不能使事情得到改观、并不能使环境得到改变。其实，只有改变自己，才能改变世界；只有适应环境，才能改变环境；只有转变思路，才能改变出路。与其将希望寄托在客观条件的改变上，不如将希望寄托于挖掘自身的潜能上。
西方有句古谚：“人有一半是魔鬼，一半是天使。”魔鬼固然诡诈多端，天使也渺茫难测。人就是矛盾的复合体，世间最复杂、最难懂的莫过于人本身。一个人想要真正做到改变自己，着实不易。精彩书摘
第一章 改变自己才能改变世界
1.改变自己。才能改变命运
细节解读
有人说命运是不可以改变的，命中注定的事是永远无法变更的。有时，别人会安慰你说：“每个人的一生都不是一帆风顺的，会经历许多的坎坷、磨难、挫折等，我们是无法去改变的。”难道是真的吗，命运真的无法改变？然而，我们往往忽视了自己也常会听到的这样一句话：“你的命运操纵在自己手里，只要能够改变自己，就可以改变命运。”
成长风铃
命运是可以改变的，因为它掌握在我们自己的手中，如果你能正视自我，并改变自我，那么命运也会随之改变。下面的故事就很好地证明了这一点。
第二次世界大战期间，一个叫做塞尔玛的新婚妻子随丈夫驻扎在靠近沙漠的一个陆军基地里。他们找到了一间靠近印第安人村落的小木屋，这里的生活条件非常差。白天气温闷热难耐，连阴凉一点的地方都有400°C；风又总是一年到头呼呼地吹个不停，把尘土吹得到处都是。
丈夫每天要奉命外出演习，每天只剩下塞尔玛一个人在家里，没有人可以说话，也没有什么事情可干，这让她感觉非常的无聊。其实，塞尔玛也很想外出去走走，可是附近住的都是一些印第安和土耳其人，他们不会说英语，而塞尔玛也根本不懂他们的语言，彼此没法沟通。因此，她写信给她的父母，说想要回家。
没想到苦苦盼到父母的回信中既没有安慰的话，也没有催促塞尔玛回家的意思，一张薄薄的信纸上只有短短几行字：“有两个人从监狱的铁窗往外看，一个看到的是地上的泥土，另一个看到的却是天上的星星。”刚开始看到这几句话的时候塞尔玛感到很生气，后来她反复看、反复琢
磨，终于悟到了父母想要对自己说的话：自己忧愁、抱怨等一切问题的根源就在于总是习惯低头向下看，于是看到的只是地上的泥土。而我们的生活中除了泥土，还有满天的繁星，为什么不抬起头来，享受那星光灿烂的美好世界呢？塞尔玛把父母的来信看了很多遍，感到非常的惭愧，她决定要在沙漠里寻找自己的“星星”。
有了这样的想法后，塞尔玛开始改变自己了。她走出了户外，和邻近的印第安人交朋友，并请他们教她如何纺织和制陶。刚开始时他们彼此还有点生疏，但是当他们了解到塞尔玛真的是对这些感兴趣时，他们也与她真诚相待，并且把舍不得卖给游客的纺织品和陶器送给她。于是，才过了几天，塞尔玛就充分地感到自己的生活已经变得非常的充实、快乐。
不仅如此，塞尔玛还迷上了印第安文化、历史、语言及印第安人的日常生活。她开始研究起沙漠和沙漠中的仙人掌，一边研究还一边做笔记，仙人掌的千姿百态令她陷入深深地沉醉其中；她也醉心于欣赏沙漠中的日出日落以及海市蜃楼的幻影，体味着新生活给她带来的快乐。很快地，沙漠也从荒凉之地，摇身一变成为她眼里一处神奇美丽的地方。她发现生活中的一切都变了，她每天都仿佛沐浴在春光之中，每天都非常快乐。
谁也没有想到，两年之后，塞尔玛不但成为了一名沙漠专家，她还根据自己这段真实的心路历程写了一本名为《快乐的城堡》的书，引起了很大的轰动。
由塞尔玛的故事我们可以看出，如果她自己不改变，那么谁也帮不了她，要想改变命运，只有先改变自己。
改变对策
改变自己说到底就是自己要战胜自己，而能否战胜自己，关键取决于是否具有足够的自控能力。只要你有足够的自控能力，你就能控制自己的大脑，控制自己的说和做。如果能做到这一点，你就成了掌握自己命运的人。
2.改变世界从自己开始
细节解读
作为社会中的一分子，每个人都有着与周围的人、周围的环境不协调的一面，这样就会不可避免地产生大大小小的矛盾和冲突，这种情况下大多数人总是想着要去改变周围的人、周围的环境，使之与自己步调一致，而不是想着从自己着手，改变自己。须不知，要改变世界还得从自己开始。
成长风铃
萧伯纳说：“明智的人使自己适应世界，而不明智的人只会坚持要世界适应自己。”的确，现实生活中就有许多这样不明智的人。
“我要离婚！”一个中年男人对民政官员说。
“为什么？”官员开始了例行问话。
“我和妻子性格不一样，我急，她慢。我让她改，她却置之不理；我喜欢吃辣的，她却喜欢吃甜食，我让她改变口味，她反对„„”
“我要辞职！”一名员工对老板说。
“为什么？”老板问。
“和我同一个宿舍的员工大多来自湖北，晚上他们都喜欢听黄梅戏，可我喜欢看功夫片，我让他们改，他们集体抗议„„”
看！我们总是喜欢去改变别人，但是，这样的结局总是徒劳的。
因此，明智的人总是喜欢先改变自己。
在威斯敏斯特教堂地下室里，英国圣公会主教的墓碑上写着这样的一段话：
当我年轻自由的时候，我的想象力没有任何局限，我梦想改变这个世界。当我渐渐成熟明智的时候，我发现这个世界是不可能改变的，于是我将眼光放得短浅了一些，那就只改变我的国家吧！但是我的国家似乎也是我无法改变的。
当我到了迟暮之年，抱着最后一丝努力的希望，我决定只改变我的家庭、我亲近的人——但是，唉！他们根本不接受改变。
现在在我临终之际，我才突然意识到：如果起初我只改变自己，接着我就可以依次改变我的家人。然后，在他们的激发和鼓励下，我也许就能改变我的国家。再接下来，谁又知道呢，也许我连整个世界都可以改变。
与其改变别人，不如改变自己。当你试图改变别人时，肯定会遭到抗拒；当你一点点改变自己时，就能用自身良好的言行去影响周围的人和事，从而达到“润物细无声”的效果。
改变对策
无论什么时候，不管你是卑微的，还是伟大的，都不要试图去改变别人，即使对方是你的伴侣，因为没有人心甘情愿地被别人改变，从而失去了本性。而且，人有时像刺猬一样，你和他距离近了，对方就会缩成一团，用身上的“刺”来对付你。因此，但凡是智者，总是从改变自己开始的。

很久很久以前，人类还是赤脚走路。有一位国王到某个偏远的乡村去旅行，因为路面崎岖不平，有很多碎石子，扎得他的脚又痛又麻，气得他又烦又恼。回到王宫后，他下了一道命令，要将全国所有的道路都铺上一层牛皮，让大家不再受刺痛之苦。但即使杀尽所有的牛也筹措不到足够的牛皮，而所花费的金钱，动用的人力，更是难以估计。虽然，想法很愚蠢，也做不到。但因为是国王的命令，大家只好摇头叹气唯命是从。一位聪明的仆人向国王谏言：“国王啊!为什么要兴师动众，牺牲那么多牛，花费那么多钱呢?您何不只用两小片牛皮包住你的脚呢?”国王听了很惊讶，也立即领悟了他的意思，于是，就立刻收回成命，采纳了他的建议。据说“皮鞋”就此由来。
温馨提示：其实，在现实生活中，要改变世界很难，想改变自己，则较为容易。如果你希望看到世界改变，那么，第一必须改变的就是自己。

一只乌鸦打算飞往南方，途中遇到一只鸽子，一起停栖在树上休息。鸽子问乌鸦：“你这么辛苦，要飞到哪里去？为什么要离开这里呢？”乌鸦愤愤不平地说：“其实，我也不想离开，可是这里的人都不喜欢我的叫声。所以，我想飞到别的地方去。”鸽子好心地说：“别白费力气了。如果你不改变自己的声音，飞到哪儿都不会受欢迎的。”
温馨提示：同样，要改变环境也很难。而当你无法改变环境的时候，只能改变自己去适应环境。相关链接四：
一个牧师正在准备讲道的稿子，他的小儿子却在一边吵闹不休。牧师无可奈何，便随手拾起一本旧杂志，把色彩鲜艳的插图——一幅世界地图，撕成碎片，丢在地上，说道：“小约翰，如果你能拼好这张地图，我就给你20便士。”
牧师以为这样会使约翰花费上午的大部分时间，但是没过10分钟，儿子又来敲他的房门。牧师看到约翰如此之快地拼好了一幅世界地图，感到十分惊奇：“孩子，你怎么这样快就拼好了地图？”
“啊，”小约翰说：“这很容易。在另一面有一个人的照片，我就把这个人的照片拼到一起，然后把它翻过来。我想如果这个人是正确的，那么，这个世界也就是正确的。”
牧师微笑起来，给了他的儿子20便士。并说：“你替我准备了明天讲道的题目：如果一个人是正确的，他的世界也就会是正确的。”
温馨提示：如果你想改变你的世界，改变你的生活，首先就应改变你自己的思维方法。

在一次欧洲篮球锦标赛上，保加利亚队与前捷克斯洛伐克队相遇。当比赛剩下8秒钟时，保加利亚队以2分优势领先，胜利在望。但是，那次锦标赛采用的是循环制，保加利亚队必须赢球超过5分才能取胜。可要用仅剩下的8秒钟再赢3分，谈何容易。
这时，保加利亚队的教练突然请求暂停。暂停后，比赛继续进行。球场上出现了众人意想不到的事情：只见保加利亚队员突然运球向自家篮下跑去，并迅速起跳投篮，球应声入网。全场观众目瞪口呆，全场比赛时间到。但是，当裁判员宣布双方打成平局需要加时赛时，大家才恍然大悟。保加利亚队这出人意料之举，为自己创造了一次起死回生的机会。加时赛的结果，保加利亚队赢了6分，如愿以偿地出线了。
温馨提示：在一般情况下，按常规办事并不错。但是，当常规已经不适应变化的新情况时，就应解放思想，打破常规，善于创新，善于改变自己，这样才能取得出人意料的胜利。例文：
成功从改变自己开始
你不能左右生命的长度，但你能改变生命的宽度；你不能左右恶劣的天气，但你能改变自己的心情；你不能改变自己的容貌，但你能改变自己的心灵。其实，我们每天都在改变自己、创造自己、超越自己。只有改变自己，才能走向成功。一只雏鹰起初胆小如鼠，当它改变自己懦弱的习性后才能勇敢地飞向蔚蓝的天空。
一棵幼草起初孱弱无力，当它在风雨中改变自己柔软的身躯后才能变得更加坚强，紧抓泥土不倒。
一条大河起初弯弯曲曲地在山区奔涌，当它改变自己的运动方向后才能自由地奔向浩瀚的大海。
雏鹰、幼草、大河无法改变蓝天、风雨和山地，但它们勇敢地改变了自己，走向辉煌。
人也一样，只有改变自己的不良习惯才能完善自己，赢得他人的信赖。我国古代有位青年叫周处，被当地人称作三害之一，“三害”即蛟龙、猛虎和周处。因为他总是欺负别人，人们厌恶他、恨他。周处不想再让别人把自己当成祸害，他决心战胜猛虎和蛟龙，为人民除害。后来，经过艰苦的努力，他终于成功地除掉了二患。也因此赢得大家一致的赞扬，成为了一个为百姓谋利益的好人。周处是勇敢的、明智的，他有勇气改变自己的顽劣之气，从而改变了自己的人生。
改变自己的思想，可以更加自信、坚强。人生有很多事都是无法选择的，比如人的容貌和身材。我国中央电视台的主持人张越如今已是家喻户晓的名人。人们可曾知道她也有一段艰辛的心路历程？曾经在上大学时，由于体态发胖、长相不佳，她很自闭，她紧紧地关上了心灵之窗，面对着身材姣好的女同学，她最怕看见穿在别人身上的那美丽的花裙子。这样一段时间的封闭后，她苏醒了。她决心改变自己的学识和德行。多年的努力奋斗以后，她变成了一个气质非凡的女记者。改变一下自己的弱点，你会发现自己的生活更丰富多彩；改变一下自己的想法，你会变得自信和坚强。外界的事物既然无法为自己所左右，何不着手改变一下自己呢？自己掌握自己，不也是一种快乐吗？请记住：成功从改变自己开始。点评：
连贯的气势、排比的语言使文章优美生动，周处和张越例证的运用增强了文章的说服力，叙述、抒情的结合让文章读来摇曳生姿。在各种手法的综合运用中，显示了作者思维的广度与深度。
改变世界，先改变自己
----题记
曾有一个人，以笔当武器有力地打击日本侵略者，而他的“横眉冷对千夫指，俯首甘为孺子牛”，有如太极一般柔中带刚；曾有一个人，他放弃可苟且偷安的生活，毅然投身随时有着生命危险的革命事业，率领中国人民打下了属于自己的江山。
前者与后者在同一个时代，那是中国沦落的时代。在列强侵略的铁蹄践踏下的中国，人民的民族意识仍然很弱，仍在外来侵略者以及军阀的压迫下过着浑浑噩噩的生活。前者刚开始并没有意识到精神上的麻木才是最可怕的，他看到的只是民不聊生的惨状，当他看到人们在病痛的折磨下而含恨离世，他突然想到如果能成为一名救死扶伤的医生，医治病人，也许人民的生活会好起来。于是他不辞辛苦飘洋来到异国学习医术。他很努力，只希望早日学成，回国去抢救那些正处于水深火热之中的人民，但在一次令他终身难忘的事情之后，他改变了他的认识。他不再热衷于学医，而是拿起锋利的毛笔与侵略者做抗挣。那一天他路过街边的电影院，瞥见了银幕上中国人目睹自己的同胞受到侵略者迫害而毫无反应地令人吃惊的一幕，此时此刻他如醍醐灌顶一般猛地清醒过来了，原来仅仅医治好人们的肉体是不够的，因为无法医治好他们麻木的灵魂，即使拥有健康的身体也永远只是任人使唤，任人践踏的奴隶。要想让人民过上幸福的生活，让祖国摆脱列强地控制，就必须改变人们的思想，让人民觉醒！他弃医从文，先改变了自己，然后用自己的笔唤醒了无数的中国人。
后者同样生活当时那个兵荒马乱的年代，他目睹民生疾苦，便发誓要改变中国现状，尽管父亲封建，甚至不让他读书，接受文化的熏陶。但他叛逆，偏偏要上激进的学堂，他从老师那知道了到中国民不聊生的根源，愈来愈按柰不住自己那颗已经被改变的想法塞满的心。但他又异常冷静，他知道以个人之力要谈改变，无异于飞蛾扑火，想要中国彻底摆脱列强的统治，军阀的压迫，就必须结交天下的爱国爱民的仁人志士，共同推翻旧制度，改变旧中国。在湖南第一师范的那几年，师生之间的志同道合，大大的鼓舞了他。在后来他投身革命后还总结分析出了前辈想要改革为何却屡屡以失败告终的原因，于是他发出了”枪杆子底下出政权“的历史性的呼声，从次中国无产阶级组建起自己的武装力量，为后来打下新中国奠定了基础。
这两位爱国人士想必大家都知道，他们的丰功伟绩也永载史册。他们想改变国家，改变世界，就先从改变自身做起。自己拥有了目标，有了抱负，才能改变自己，改变世界！有时的成功并不是来源于不变的固执，而是改变，学会审时度势，学会变通。
不能改变这个世界就改变自己
一个障碍，就是一个新的已知条件，只要你愿意，任何一个障碍，都会成为一个超越自我的契机。
有一天，素有森林之王之称的狮子，来到了天神面前：“我很感谢你赐给我如此雄壮威武的体格、如此强大无比的力气，让我有足够的能力统治这整座森林。” 天神听了，微笑地问：“但是这不是你今天来找我的目的吧！看起来你似乎遇到了某事的困扰！”
狮子轻轻吼了一声，说：“天神真是了解我啊！我今天来的确是有事相求。因为尽管我有很大能耐，但是每天鸡鸣的时候，我总是会被鸡鸣声给吓醒。神啊！祈求您，再赐给我一个力量，让我不再被鸡鸣声给吓醒吧！” 天神笑道：“你去找大象吧，它会给你一个满意的答复的。”
狮子兴冲冲地跑到湖边找大象。还没见到大象，就听到大象跺脚所发出的“砰砰”响声。狮子加速地跑向大象，却看到大象正气呼呼地直跺脚。狮子问大象：“你干吗发这么大的脾气？”
大象拼命摇晃着大耳朵，吼着：“有只讨厌的小蚊子，总想钻进我的耳朵里，害我都快痒死了！”
狮子离开了大象，心里暗自想着：“原来体型这么巨大的大象，还会怕那么瘦小的蚊子，那我还有什么好抱怨呢？毕竟鸡鸣也不过一天一次，而蚊子却无时无刻都在骚扰着大象。这样想来，我可比它幸运多了。”
狮子一边走，一边回头看着仍在跺脚的大象，心想：“天神要我来看看大象的情况，应该就是想告诉我，谁都会遇上麻烦事，而它并无法帮助所有人。既然如此，那我只好靠自己了！反正以后只要鸡鸣时，我就当作鸡是在提醒我该起床了，鸡鸣声对我还真是有益处呢！”
在人生的路上，无论人们走得多么顺利，只要稍微遇上一些不顺的事，就会习惯性地抱怨老天亏待他们，进而祈求老天赐予更多的力量，以渡过难关。
实际上，人类世界有的时候比自然界还要残酷，因为除能力的强弱比较之外，其他的竞争实在是太多太多了。本该淘汰出局的不合格者往往会颠覆公平合理的竞争机制，从而制造出不公平、不合理的选拔结果。世人必须承认这种现实，必须打破事事公平合理的梦想，只有这样才能不被困扰，才能不发牢骚。因此我们要清醒地认识到这一点，不要自己跟自己过不去。如果人们不能改变这个世界，那就要在这个世界里逐渐改变自我。事实上，每个困境都有其存在的正面价值。
改变世界首先要改变自己
在闻名世界的威斯特敏斯特大教堂地下室的墓碑林中，有一块名扬世界的墓碑。其实这只是一块很普通的墓碑，粗糙的花岗石质地，造型也很一般，同周围那些质地上乘、做工优良的亨利三世到乔治二世等二十多位英国前国王墓碑，以及牛顿、达尔文、狄更斯等名人的墓碑比较起来，它显得微不足道，不值一提。并且它没有姓名，没有生卒年月，甚至上面连墓主的介绍文字也没有。
但是，就是这样一块无名氏墓碑，却成为名扬全球的著名墓碑。每一个到过威斯特敏斯特大教堂的人，他们可以不去拜谒那些曾经显赫一世的英国前国王们，可以不去拜谒那诸如狄更斯、达尔文等世界名人们，但他们却没有人不来拜谒这一块普通的墓碑，他们都被这块墓碑深深的震撼着，准确地说，他们被这块墓碑上的碑文深深地震撼着。在这块墓碑上，刻着这样的一段话：
当我年轻的时候，我的想象力从没有受到过限制，我梦想改变这个世界。
当我成熟以后，我发现我不能改变这个世界，我将目光缩短了些，决定只改变我的国家。
当我进入暮年后，我发现我不能改变我的国家，我的最后愿望仅仅是改变一下我的家庭。但是，这也不可能。
当我躺在床上，行将就木时，我突然意识到：如果一开始我仅仅去改变我自己，然后作为一个榜样，我可能改变我的家庭；在家人的帮助和鼓励下，我可能为国家做一些事情。
然后谁知道呢？我甚至可能改变这个世界。据说，许多世界政要和名人看到这块碑文时都感慨不已。有人说这是一篇人生的教义，有人说这是灵魂的一种自省。当年轻的曼德拉看到这篇碑文时，顿然有醒醐灌顶之感，声称自己从中找到了改变南非甚至整个世界的金钥匙。回到南非后，这个志向远大、原本赞同以爆治爆垫平种族歧视鸿沟的黑人青年，一下子改变的自己的思想和处世风格，他从改变自己、改变自己的家庭和亲朋好友着手，经历了几十年，终于改变了他的国家。
真的，要想撬起世界，它的最佳支点不是地球，不是一个国家、一个民族，也不是别人，而只能是自己的心灵。
要想改变世界，你必须从改变你自己开始；要想撬起世界，你必须把支点选在自己的心灵上。
改变自己，改变世界
以前，我总是认为已经没有东西可以真正打动我，然而我错了。
当看到接二连三的地震海啸泥石流，每一个都可以带走几百到几万人的生命，当看到接二连三珍稀动物失去家园以至于灭亡，当看到语文书里接二连三的关于环保的文章时，我总会情不自禁地飞到课文中去，与作者一起批判那些破坏环境的人们。
在学完<消逝的仙湖----罗布泊>回到家后，我向妈妈诉说了对这些破坏环境的人类的强烈不满：“妈，你看这些破坏环境的人类真是不知好歹，怎么能这样破坏环境呢？”而妈妈却说：“你有时候不是也在破坏环境吗？浪费就是一种破坏环境。”她的话让我想了我的种种浪费，真是惭愧不已。看来想改变世界的环境，先得从改变自己周围的事做起啊，从那天以后“绿色”这一环保色深深地刻入了我的心，我是多么希望地球上的沙漠都变成一片片的绿树啊！在那以后我用什么都节约了许多，不像从前浪费资源了。在改变自己的同时，我也在尽力改变自己周围的人。
有一天，我去超市买东西，快到超市门口时，看见有几个散发宣传单的，见人就给，见车就放，可是有些人却不要，随手就扔地上，我想：这多浪费纸啊，这么多传单，抵得上好几棵树了！心疼不已的我过去将纸扔进垃圾箱里，这样至少还能回收。
还有一次，我在小区里和几个朋友打篮球，发现远处草地上冒出了缕缕白烟，走近一看，原来，是我们小区里的一群小孩在草坪上放了几张点燃的纸烧草坪，草黑了一大片，我的心那个疼啊，我们走过去连忙制止，并讲了火灾的危险性和环保的重要性。他们羞愧难当，赶忙从附近端来水把火熄灭，结束了烧草行动，幸好没有殃及到旁边几棵刚种的小树，可是被烧死的草却回不来了。
正如王力宏所唱“我可以改变世界，改变自己，改变龟毛，改变小气，要一直努力努力，永不放弃，才可以改变世界，come on 改变自己”
我想大声呼吁人们：地球属于我们人类，属于我们大家，只要我们都改变一下自己，在心中充满一片绿色，何愁改变不了世界呢？

A
One day, Jack threw some papers on my desk.“What’s wrong?” I asked.“Next time you want to change anything, ask me first,” he said, and left.I had made just one small change.But it was not that I hadn’t been warned.My colleagues had said he was responsible for the resignations(辞职)of the two previous secretaries.As the weeks went by, I came to look down on Jack.After that another of his episodes(片段)had left me in tears.I stormed into his office.“What?” he said suddenly.“Jack, the way you’ve been treating me is wrong.I’ve never had anyone speak to me that way.As a professional, it’s wrong for me to allow it to continue,” I said.Jack smiled nervously, “Susan, I make you a promise that I will be a friend.I will treat you as you deserve to be treated, with respect and kindness.”
Jack avoided me the rest of the week, and never questioned my work again.I brought cookies to the office one day and left some on his desk.Another day I left a note, “Hope your day is going great.” Over the next few weeks, there were no more Jack episodes.One year later, I discovered I had breast cancer, and was scared.The statistics were not great for my long-term survival.One day, however, Jack visited me in the hospital and silently handed me a bundle with several bulbs inside.“Tulips(郁金香),” he said.I smiled, not understanding.“If you plant them when you get home, they’ll come up next spring.I think you will be there to see them when they come up.Next spring you will see the colours I picked out for you.” Tears clouded my eyes and he left.I have seen those red and white striped（有条纹的）tulips push through the soil every spring for over ten years now.This past September the doctor declared me cured.At a moment when I was praying for just the right word, a man with very few words said all the right things.After all, that’s what friends do.26.Jack became angry that day because__________.A.he was feeling unwellB.Susan had failed to keep his office clean

The UK has a well¬respected higher education system and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world.But to those who are new to it all, sometimes it can be confusing．
October is usually the busiest month in the college calendar.Universities have something called Freshers’ Week for their newcomers.It’s a great opportunity to make new friends, join lots of clubs and settle into university life．
However, having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind, the prospect（前景）of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nerve¬wracking（令人头痛的）.Where do you start? Who should you make friends with? Which clubs
should you join?
Luckily, there will be thousands of others in the same boat as you worrying about starting their university social life on the right foot.So just take it all in slowly.Don’t rush into anything that you’ll regret for the next three years.Here is some top advice from past students on how to survive Freshers’ Week：
●Learn rules.Make sure you know British social etiquette（礼节）.Have a few wine glasses and snacks handy for your housemates and friends.●Be kind.Sometimes cups of tea or even slices of toast can give you a head start in making friends.●Be sociable.The more active you are, the more likely you’ll be to meet new people than if you’re someone who never leaves their room.●Bring a doorstop.Keep your door open when you’re in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that you’re friendly.So with a bit of clever planning and effort, Freshers’ Week can give you a great start to your university life and soon you’ll be passing on your experience to next year’s new recruits．

C．many freshers are worried about how to fit university life D．all the new students will make new friends and join certain clubs
34．Why does the author suggest having wine glasses and snacks handy？
A．To pass the busy university life．B．To help make friends with other freshers．
C．To show yourself a drinker as others．D．To pass the time in a happy way．
35．The main purpose of the passage is to．

Every American family has its own traditions on Thanksgiving Day, and mine is no difference.Once the national holiday arrives, my mom rises early to make the meal.She puts a turkey in the oven, chops carrots and bakes pies.I’m sorry to say that the men in the family – my dad, my younger brother and myself – rarely pitch in to help.Our job is to wash the mountain of dirty dishes after the meal is over.Around 2 pm every Thanksgiving Day, family members seat themselves around the kitchen table.Plates of turkey, vegetables, salad, rolls and pies cover it.At this point, we can hardly keep ourselves from drooling(流口水)all over our fancy clothes, but it’s not yet time to eat.First, we must bow our heads, close our eyes and say a prayer of thanks aloud to God for giving us everything we have.Under normal circumstances, I would have no problem making a list of things I am thankful for.I grew up in a loving family.My parents, who aren’t wealthy, took out loans to help me pay for university.But, the funny thing is, every time I sit down for Thanksgiving dinner and try to say a prayer of thanks, my mind usually goes blank.I think it has something to do with my growling(咕咕叫)stomach and all of that food sitting right there under my nose.Eventually, though, we all finish our short prayers and dig in.To be sure, the day includes other highlights – visiting with family and watching football.But usually around 6 pm we are all ourselves stuffed like turkeys and thankful to have a nice warm bed to sleep in.36.The purpose of the text is to ________.A.tell what the family do for Thanksgiving DayB.tell how the family spends Thanksgiving Day
C.introduce foods served on Thanksgiving DayD.introduce the American Thanksgiving Day
37.On Thanksgiving Day the author’s family do the following except ________.A.watching a movieB.making visits

A.He is too thankful to say a word.B.His mind is on the food before him.C.He feels too excited to speak.D.He is shy to speak in public.39.The underlined phrase “dig in” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “________”.A.chat with othersB.make a hole
C.mix things upD.start eating
40.What can we conclude from the text?
A.On Thanksgiving Day, men do nothing but eat.B.The author is a middle school student.C.The author’s family is not rich, but it’s a loving one.D.Thanksgiving Day falls on Thursday of DecemberD
The US government has started a website, Admongo, to help children think critically about the advertising aimed at them.It claims to provide visitors with an “aducation” through games and other entertainment.A cartoon man dressed in old time pilot clothing greets visitors to Admongo.“Call me Haiz”, he says upon arrival in a rocket ship that opens up with a crazy world inside it.Spacey dance music plays in the background as Haiz tells visitors that they need to learn about advertising.Its inventors say eight to twelve years old is the age kids develop their critical thinking abilities.Kids that age are also a big market for advertisers.The idea behind Admongo is to teach children three things: To identify the advertiser.To know what the advertiser is really saying.And to know what the advertisement is trying to get the child to do.Children learn these things through a video game.They create their own game character.They can choose different skin colors, hair styles, eye and mouth shapes.Then they begin a trip through ad-land, where there are ads on buses and billboards.The players have to find all the marketing in the neighborhood before they can move on to the next level.The Admongo game takes players inside a home, to the advertising studio and everywhere else ads can be found.It is a complete exploration of the world of marketing.One such area is food marketing.The Federal Trade Commission(FTC)says it is a big business.The FTC estimates that food, drink and fast-food restaurants spent more than one and a half billion dollars on advertising to young people in 2009.The FTC says children are important for three reasons.They buy products.They influence parents and caregivers to buy.And they are the future adult buyers of the products.A recent study says most advertising aimed at children is for foods of the lowest nutritional value.First Lady Michelle Obama has said she would like to see advertisers marketing healthy foods for children.41.What is the best title of the text?
A.The guide of AdmongoB.An educationwebsitefor children
C.A popular online video gameD.A website aimed at children
42.Why did the government start the website?

A.Choose hair styles for their character.B.Travel to a supermarket.C.Eat in a fast-food restaurant.D.Play video games during the trip.44.Children are important for advertising because they are.A.important for the societyB.the most potential buyers
C.easily influenced by adsD.easily affected by poor products
45.According to Michelle Obama, lots of food advertised for children are ________.A.healthyB.of high nutritionC.yummyD.of low quality

第五篇：2018高考模拟作文21
21.阅读下面的材料，根据要求作文。（60分）
某中学举行了一场盛大的十八岁成人礼。在成人礼上同学们依次踏上红毯，由家长给他们戴上“成人帽”，同学们向父母恭行“拜谢礼”。然后父母和孩子携手步入“成人门”，踏上“成才路”，面对一只巨型蜡烛，许下愿望，并在《感恩的心》的动人旋律中，家长和学生互换书信。接着，几个身穿汉服的男女学生走上舞台，献上诗朗诵《青春的十八岁》。最后全体学生起立，庄严宣誓。
对于诸如此类的仪式有人大加赞赏，有人则不以为然。你有没有参加过类似的仪式，怎么看待？
请联系生活实际，写一篇不少于800字的文章。要求：选好角度，确定立意；明确文体，自拟标题；不要套作，不得抄袭。21.【写作提示】
赞同：生活需要仪式，仪式感能让我们认真对待人生中重要时刻，增加责任感、使命感。反对：仪式只是形式，过于繁复，浪费宝贵的时间和精力，不如践行仪式的精神内涵。【例文】
现代化的仪式感
某中学举行了一场盛大的十八岁成人礼，同学们走过红毯，戴上“成人帽”，向父母恭行“拜谢礼”。对这种仪式有人大加赞赏，有人则不以为然。我认为生活需要仪式感，仪式感能让我们认真对待人生中重要时刻，增加责任感、使命感。
在物质飞速发展的社会中，仪式感越来越被人重视，我们应该赞赏这种仪式感，它说明时代在进步，社会在发展，给人以力量和积极向上的氛围。
在当下社会，仪式很多，“感动中国十大人物”颁奖仪式彰显了社会的真善美，每一个杰出人物都促进我们心灵的升华。里约奥运会，中国女排站上领奖台的那一刻，国歌响起的那一刻，我们被深深震撼与感动，仪式感会鼓舞人的力量，会激励中华人民前进的步伐。
弘扬社会正义，继承传统美德，仪式带给我们的不仅仅是一个活动、一次经历，而是一次次心灵上的感动与成长。我们的升国旗仪式、“国旗下的讲话”就是爱国主义教育的典型形式。周一升国旗仪式，升旗手、护旗手着装规范统一，步调整齐划一，神情庄重严肃，令人羡慕；“国旗下的讲话”，师生瞩目，尽显风采。升旗手、护旗手由思想表现、文明礼貌、学习刻苦、助人为乐等各方面表现突出的同学担任，并在升旗仪式上介绍他们的先进事迹。“国旗下的演讲”由爱岗敬业、热爱学生、工作踏实、有突出成绩的老师担任，也邀请各行各业的先进人物、校友参加。这样的升旗仪式既有鼓励性，又有激励性，能够增强教育的叠加效应。
仪式感不仅仅存在于大型活动中，一次小小的班会课，一次小小的社会实践活动，我们用心体会，就会感觉到仪式感的存在。没有仪式，何来表扬？没有表扬，又怎么传播正能量？
我们要经历的仪式很多，仪式感陪伴我们每一天，工作的人需要加油鼓劲，学习的人需要奋力拼搏。在我们的学习生活中，每天都要在心中宣誓，珍惜时光，好好学习，今天苦了，明天就会甜了。
仪式的意义不在于它的外部形式，而是在于过程，在于仪式带给人们的无限动力。让我们仔细品味其中的美妙，感受生活的绚烂多彩。
