Question

Oseola McCarty spent more than 75 years washing and ironing other people’s clothes. As a laundrywoman, she was paid only a few dollars each time. Certainly nobody would consider her rich, so they were all amazed when Miss McCarty decided to donate $ 150,000 to the University of Southern Mississippi.

The money was in fact her life savings. She could save such a large amount of money because she lived a very simple life. She never learned to drive, and when she wanted to go somewhere, she just walked. She never flew to anywhere till the donation，and in 50 years she had been out of the South only once. The house in which she lived was also a rather modest one her last uncle left her. Only after she became known in America did she begin to travel all over the country. Since then, she had been the subject of many interviews and articles and was even invited to the White House.

Her donation was for students who clearly needed financial help. She herself left school in the sixth grade and had never married or had children. She said to the reporters that the idea of helping somebody’s child go to college gave her much pleasure.

Answer 1

Oseola McCarty was a laundrywoman for more than 75 years. She earned a few dollars each time. But she donated $150,000 which was her life savings to help the students who needed financial help.

I think her behavior is worth praising and very unselfish. Everyone should help others in need. But how much to donate should be based on our actual situation. The $150,000 is very helpful to the students who have financial problems. They can buy many things they need as other students. And they may be more grateful and kinder. Therefore, it’s more likely for them to help others in the future.

If I am going to give donations, I will choose students too. They are in the most important period in their life. They need to get a long education. They have to buy a lot of books, pencil-cases, pens, erasers and so on, which will certainly cost a lot. They are growing up rapidly, which needs a lot of nutrition. If they don’t have enough money, they can’t eat enough food and take in enough energy. In a word, money is very important to students.(189 words)

【解析】

試題分析：該作文是給材料作文。根據(jù)短文寫一篇文章，首先要看懂寓言說的是什么，然后圍繞中心意思結(jié)合自己的經(jīng)歷進行寫作。文章主題注意條理要清晰，邏輯順序和結(jié)構(gòu)要恰當，同時要盡量保持簡潔精干的內(nèi)容，不拖泥帶水。要注意題中所給的信息，不可偏題，應(yīng)用文寫作對于文章內(nèi)容的要求是要達到寫作目的。盡量保持卷面整潔，字體美觀，注意行文的連貫性。使用一些高級句型和詞匯提升作文檔次.【亮點說明】 原文給出的句子不看。答案第一句But she donated $150,000 which was her life savings to help the students who needed financial help.使用了兩個定語從句，一個是which引導(dǎo)的修飾$150,000，另一個是who引導(dǎo)的定語從句修飾students。但是她捐贈了她全部積蓄的十五萬美金來幫助那些需要財政幫助的孩子們。答案第二段第一句提出自己的觀點。第四句 The $150,000 is very helpful to the students who have financial problems.也是一個定語從句，who修飾前面的students，在從句中做主語。第三段第一句是一個if引導(dǎo)的條件狀語從句。If I am going to give donations, I will choose students too.如果我想要捐錢，我也會選擇捐獻給學(xué)生。 第四句是一個非限制性定語從句 They have to buy a lot of books, pencil-cases, pens, erasers and so on, which will certainly cost a lot. 他們需要買很多的書、鉛筆盒、筆、橡皮擦等等一些東西，這些一定會花費很多錢。第五句和第四句結(jié)構(gòu)，一樣也是一個非限制性定語從句They are growing up rapidly, which needs a lot of nutrition. 他們快速的成長著，這需要很多的營養(yǎng)。第六句If they don’t have enough money, they can’t eat enough food and take in enough energy. 是一個if引導(dǎo)的條件狀語從句，如果他們沒有足夠的錢，他們不會遲到足夠的食物，吸收足夠的能量。除了很多從句以外，本文也用了一些比較好的短語如第二段的 be worth doing 值得做某事；based on基于；it’s likely to 很有可能做； In a word總而言之。這是一篇比較不錯的范文。
