【答案】

There is no denying that we are eager for golden chances to be successful in life.However, many people are not aware that chances are always for those who get well prepared.I didn’t realize it until I went to high school.

Soon after I became a senior one student, a singing competition was to be held in school.I love singing but I was very shy then and had never sung at the top of my voice in public.I could only sing to myself most of the time.Somehow, I wanted to have a try.When I talked about it with my parents, they inspired me to follow my inner voice and told me as long as I got well prepared, I would make it.With their encouragement, I became confident and practiced hard after class.Sometimes, I would turn to my music teacher for help.When I felt I was ready, the day came.Standing on the stage, I took a deep breath and began to sing with my full emotions.It turned out that I won the first prize

This experience has taught me a precious lesson in my life.If you are not successful yet, most probably you haven’t been well prepared.Once you have, chances will surely favor you.

【题目】I would never forget the time when we were standing at the top of a church tower.My father had brought me to this spot in a small town not far from our home in Rome.I wondered why.

“Look down, Elsa,” Father said.I gathered all my courage and looked down.I saw the square in the center of the village.And I saw the crisscross (纵横交错) of streets leading to the square.“See, my dear,” Father said gently.“There is more than one way to the square.Life is like that.If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road, try another.”

Now I understood why I was there.Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the awful lunches that were served at school.But she refused because she didn't believe the lunches were as bad as I said.

When I turned to Father for help, he would not interfere (干涉).Instead, he brought me to this high tower to give me a lesson.By the time we reached home, I had a plan.

At school the next day, I secretly poured my lunch soup into a bottle and brought it home.Then I asked our cook to serve it to Mother at dinner.The plan worked perfectly.She swallowed one spoonful and sputtered, “The cook must have gone bad!” Quickly I told what I had done, and Mother stated firmly that she would deal with the matter of lunches at school the next day!

In the following years I often remembered the lesson Father taught me.I began to work as a fashion designer two years ago.I wouldn't stop working until I tried every possible means to my goal.Father's wise words always remind me that there is more than one way to the square.

【题目】Frederick M. Hess is the director of education policy study at the American Enterprise Institute, which is a nonprofit organization that does research on many public topics. He says that a long summer vacation doesn’t make sense in today’s world.

Can American students afford to take a summer vacation? In a summer vacation, millions of children spend valuable time sending messages, watching TV, playing video games and doing shopping in the mall. They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.

Summer vacation once made sense in the past when you didn’t need an education to get a good job. But now things have changed. For today’s students, academic skills are important to students’ future success, but such skills are affected in the summer time. Many other countries don’t give children an American style summer vacation. They offer no more than seven consecutive (连续的) weeks of vacation. Most American school districts offer up to thirteen weeks. To compete in the global marketplace, Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.

Summer vacation also causes challenges for today’s families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stayathome Mum. Now, two thirds of American children live in households where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more a burden than a break. Someone must watch the kids.

But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Researchers have found that disadvantaged students lose ground in the summer time.

Any good suggestion? Yes. A longer school year does not have to be an invitation to hard boring work. Rather, it should allow time-pressed teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Students would have more time to devote to sports, music and the arts.

To conclude, a long summer vacation can be a great thing. But in the 21st century, it may also be outdated. (313 words)
