英语作文TheWaytoSuccess
英语六级考试技巧第一篇:英语作文 The Way to Success
The Way to Success
“Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.” And here comes our question, what is the way to success?
A strong will and great efforts are the most essential two keys to the door of success.Why do people fail to achieve their goal? The reason is that most of them give up halfway due to their lack of a strong will once they encounter any difficulty.A man of a strong will always sticks to his cause no matter how tough it might be.Would Thomas Edison be such a great man in history if he had done nothing but possessing a strong will? We are all familiar with his story that he had tried one thousand kinds of materials before he finally made his great bulb light up.Without hard effort, Edison might have been a nobody.Without efforts, no one can succeed.To sum up, a strong will and great efforts can help one open up the way to success.Where there is a will with efforts, there is a way.【作文解析】
本次六级考试作文题为The way to success,与本次四级考试作文Nothing succeeds without a strong will遥相呼应,大同小异,都是在讨论成功这一话题。
此次六级考试作文的话题依然是老生常谈,即通往成功的道路,相信很多考生对此并不陌生,背过范文的同学写起来肯定也是得心应手。
该范文段落结构清晰,阐释说理也足以让人信服,是一篇不错的作文。
开篇作者通过引用爱迪生关于天才的一句名言来引出问题,吸引读者注意,引起读者的思考。紧随其后,作者就开门见山地亮出了自己的观点:只有坚强的意志和不懈的努力才能打开成功的大门。
第二段,作者同样以一个问题来引领全段,引发思考。然后通过对比不成功和最终成功的人的不同表现,来阐释坚强的意志对获得成功的重要作用。
第三段,作者进一步阐释“仅有坚强的意志,没有实在的努力,也能成功吗?”同样是先发问,然后举了爱迪生的事例,来证明答案是否定的。举名人的例子,而非个人的实例来作为文章的论据才更有说服力,这也是这篇作文的高明之处。
最后一段,作者先以第一句话进行了总结,然后为了加强作文结尾的力度,作者还对名言“Where there is a will, there is way”进行了改编,换成了自己的观点,为我所用,这也是本篇范文的一个两点之处。注意,写作文时对名言进行恰当地改编,不仅能体现幽默创新的一面,同样也体现了作者不错的文字驾驭技巧,考官也是很欢迎这样的文章的。

1.The Great Wall(长城)
The Great Wall was built in ancient China.It is the world's longest human-made structure, about 6000 kilometers long.As one of the Eight Wonders in the world, the Great Wall has become the symbol of the Chinese nation(中华民族).A Chinese saying(谚语)goes like this,“ You are not a true man until you get to the Great Wall.”(不到长城非好汉)
Lots of beautiful stories about the Great Wall took place during its construction,such as Meng Jiangnu's story.Meng Jiangnu was a beautiful woman.Meng's husband was caught by government and sent to build the Great Wall.She missed her husband very much after h
e was taken away.she decided to set off to look for him.Unfortunately, by the time she reached the great wall, she found that her husband had already died.Hearing the bad news, she burst into tears(流泪).Her howl([haul]嚎哭)caused the collapse([kə'læps] 倒塌)of a part of the Great Wall.2.The Terracotta(['tɛrə'kɑtə]陶)Army(兵马佣)
The Terracotta Army was known as the greatest discoveries of the 20th centuries in china.It is located in Xi'an, a historical and cultural city ofNorthwest China.The Terracotta Army had lain underground for more than 2000 years before it was discovered in 1974.Itis a part of Emperor Qin Shihuang’s Mausoleum([mɔsə'liəm]陵墓).Qin Shihuang was the first emperor(['ɛmpərɚ]皇帝)of a united China.He wanted to build a special tomb to show he was the greatest emporor.So he made two million workers to dig four holes and put many statues(['stætʃu] 雕像)of soidiers,horses and war-coaches(战车)into the holes.The anciant Chinese people thought the “Army” can protect the emporor in his afterlife.(古代中国人认为那些军队可以在秦始皇死后继续保护他)
Every year,many visitors from China and other contries come to visit The Terracotta Army
Museum.In 1998,the former(['fɔrmɚ]前任的)U.S.President Bill Clinton(美国前总统克林顿)together with his wife Hilary(希拉里)and daughter visited Terracotta Army Museum.Bill Clinton said he wished he could be the curator([kju'retɚ] 馆长)of the Terracotta Army Museum.(克林顿说他多么希望能是兵马俑博物馆的馆长)

But which is the most useful and practical invention to us? I think the compass is more important than the others.Because of it,we can know our country,our world.With the help of the compass, Columbus([kə'lʌmbəs]哥伦布)found the new land.With the help of it,we know that the earth is like a ball.Having the compass,we can see the earth clearly.We can s
ay that without the invention of the compass,there can not be a colourful world.(我们可以说没有指南针的发明,就不会有这个丰富多彩的世界)
