1. Use the method of contrast to write essays
Students, when we have some of the above bad behaviors, do we think of the 4 taels of water rationed per person per day in the dry areas of the five southwestern provinces? ; Do you think of the people who are dying of hunger in the world? Do you think of the children in impoverished mountainous areas still studying under kerosene lamps? Do you think of the towering trees that have fallen down one after another in the forest? We have no right to waste, and we have no capital to waste and squander. If such wasteful behavior extends to the entire city, province, country or even the world, how much will we lose in one day? However, as students, although we cannot serve the society and make great contributions, as long as everyone starts from themselves and strives to be frugal, it is a contribution.
Therefore, now is the time for us to take real action. What we see on paper is only superficial, but we know that we must do it in earnest. Students, we must start from ourselves, start from the small things around us, use our actual actions to show our determination to protect the ecology and the environment, and strive to do: In life: save every drop of water, do not open the faucet too much, Use a face plate for washing; save every piece of paper, do not post "recruitment notices" randomly, report picked up or lost items directly to the teacher or relevant departments; save every ration of food, "think every grain is hard-earned"; Save every kilowatt-hour of electricity to ensure that the lights in the classroom are no longer tired and useless.
In terms of study: save your time, make full use of your time to do meaningful things, make your study and life more fulfilling, work hard, and work hard. Only in this way can we move towards our ideal positions and contribute to the society. Make a greater contribution. To become the benchmark and the banner of the new century, we must have good moral qualities, learning abilities and awareness of conservation and environmental protection.
When facing pressure, use a positive attitude to deal with it, rather than venting wantonly or avoiding it powerlessly; when facing difficulties in study and life, you should also bravely accept and muster the courage to fight, and face some difficulties. When we do things within our own capabilities, we must do it boldly and resolutely, instead of hesitating and standing still. Teachers and classmates, at this critical moment, we can no longer hesitate. The natural climate has shown us that it will be too late if we don't act. For the sake of the blue sky above our heads, in order to prevent our tears from becoming... The last drop of water, only if everyone saves and reduces carbon can we win this tough battle! Let's take action! Let our younger generation truly act as a new force in low-carbon and environmental protection and play a sonorous song of victory for tomorrow. 2. Looking for an essay that uses contrasting techniques
Tall palm trees There are several palm trees planted in our campus.
Looking from a distance, it looks like a big open umbrella. Standing at its feet and looking up, it goes straight up, as high as four or five stories.
Its trunk is thick, straight and slender. The thickness of the trunk varies from top to bottom, with the middle part of the trunk being the thickest.
The upper and lower parts are thinner than the middle one. The most beautiful ones are the leaves of the palm trees. The leaves stretch outward like a peacock spreading its tail.
The leaves are very large, and there are separate small leaves in the middle, like the "Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara" with its arms spread out, which is really interesting. Palm trees are full of life all year round.
No matter it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, it is so green and tall, like soldiers guarding our campus and accompanying us to learn and grow. In summer, the scorching sun shines like a fireball, scorching the earth. With the shelter of palm trees, we won’t feel so hot when we play games and have physical education classes under the trees.
Sometimes children drag palm leaves and ride on them, really like the magicians in cartoons, which is very fun. When it rains, the leaves of the palm trees become greener after being washed by the rain, adding a bit of greenery to the campus and making our campus more beautiful.
When the autumn wind blows, the leaves of the palm trees sway, like a little green-haired girl dancing happily. It also made a sound of "rustling, rustling...", as if a little singer was singing.
It’s really full of singing and dancing! Palm trees, you not only add a lot of beauty to the campus, but also bring laughter to the students. I like you - tall palm tree.
In the politics class, the teacher suddenly asked me, "What is your ideal?" I was at a loss and didn't know how to answer this question. I once had my own ideals, which started when I was young.
When I was a child, I didn’t understand anything. My mother asked me: "What is your ideal?" I opened my eyes and asked curiously: "What is an ideal?" My mother told me: "The ideal is what you want to do when you grow up.
For example Be an engineer who can draw design drawings, be a worker who can produce parts, be a salesman who sells things..." I thought for a while and said, "I want to be a teacher, because teachers can't take care of their own students. "My mother was shocked by my answer. She told me: "Being a teacher is very hard."
I said: "As long as I can be a teacher, being a teacher is the hardest, and I'm not afraid of it! "Time flies so fast. In a blink of an eye, I have grown up by two years. I went to school, but my grandma suffered from cerebral hemorrhage. From then on, my dream became to be a doctor.
When I was in third grade, the teacher asked us to write down our ideals. I picked up my pen and wrote down my new ideal: to become a glorious people's teacher in the future. I often dream of becoming a doctor and relieving the pain of patients.
My father told me: "Being a doctor is not easy. You need to know a lot of knowledge to do it..." But I stubbornly shouted: I want to be a doctor, I must be a doctor! "In the blink of an eye, I grew taller, and as I grew up, I became more sensible.
When I entered middle school, I don’t know how many times the teacher talked about ideals and asked us to correctly understand ideals, dreams, and fantasies. I don’t know why. At that time, I understood a passage from Grandma Bing Xin: "People often admire the flower of success for its current beauty, but at the beginning, its buds were soaked in the tears of struggle and sprinkled with the blood of sacrifice? "Yes, the ideal is beautiful, but to realize it, you need to work hard from now on.
In order to realize his ideal, Zhang Guanghou studied hard with both hands and with the spirit of "the stupid bird flies first" I studied mathematics with twice the time and twice the energy, and finally became a famous young mathematician.
I don’t know when I started to correct what my mother told me. The wrong things in "What is an ideal?" I began to understand the significance of ideals and no longer regarded them as child's play.
The famous Russian writer Tolstoy said: "Ideals guide the way. Beacon. Without ideals, there is no firm direction; without direction, there is no life. ”
I understood: What a driving role ideals play in a person’s life. I began to think and seriously consider my ideals.
I thought: What if When I grow up, I want to become a calligrapher and painter. Then, from now on, I will insist on practicing painting and calligraphy every day. In the future, I will be able to draw a beautiful picture of the motherland and inscribe a beautiful couplet; if If I want to be an engineer when I grow up, then, from now on, I will concentrate on learning knowledge and apply it to my work in the future; if I want to be a doctor when I grow up, then, from now on, I will You must know how to care for others and love others, so that you can take on the vocation of a doctor and save lives and heal the wounded in the future; if I grow up... Well, I feel: I should choose the ideal that I can realize, and serve the society, the motherland, and the country in the future. To benefit the people, and from now on, I will strive for my ideals. Yes, when I grow up, I should consider my ideals from a new perspective.
There is a very big piece of land next to my hometown in the countryside. The open space was rented to others to plant mahogany saplings.
Mahogany is a special kind of tree with a beautiful shape, tall and straight. I used to plant many of them in my hometown forest farm, and they have grown to several feet. A tall forest. So when I saw the mahogany saplings reaching only my knees, it was hard to believe my eyes.
The person planting the mahogany saplings was a very tall man, and he bent down. When planting trees, it feels like transplanting seedlings. After the saplings are planted, he often comes to water them. The strange thing is that he does not come regularly. Sometimes he comes every three days, sometimes every five days, and sometimes he comes every ten days. ;The amount of watering is not certain, sometimes more, sometimes less.
When I lived in the country, I would walk on the path next to the mahogany saplings every day. People who planted saplings would occasionally do so. He would come home for tea. Sometimes he would come in the morning and sometimes in the afternoon.
What’s even more strange to me is that the mahogany seedlings sometimes wilt inexplicably. p>
Therefore, when he comes, he always brings a few saplings to replant. At first, I thought he was too lazy to water the trees after such a long time.
But what about lazy people? Do you know how many trees will wither? Later, I thought that he was too busy and did nothing according to the rules. But how could a busy person do things so calmly? I couldn't help but ask him, when should he come? ? How often do you water the mahogany tree? Why do the mahogany trees wilt for no reason? If you water them every day, will the mahogany tree wilt? [Analysis of ideas]
Let’s talk about the contrasting techniques in the article based on Lu Xun’s "Kong Yiji"
[Problem-solving process]
Comparison, as Lu Xun An artistic technique commonly used by Mr. can be seen everywhere in "Kong Yiji". Let's briefly talk about the artistic effect of each group of comparisons in the novel:
1. "Jiaoyi Gang" and "Short Clothes Gang". "Comparison" of wearing long shirts
A. The "short-shirt gang" "stands and drinks" outside the counter.
B. The "man in a long gown" "walked into the house next to the store", asked for wine and food, and "sit down and drank slowly".
Xianheng Hotel is a microcosm of the dark old society at that time, with distinctive characteristics of the times. The novel introduces two types of people who drink: one is the "short-shirt gang" - the "poor laborers" who work; the other is the "long-shirted gang" - the leisurely and luxurious exploiters. The words "short" and "long", "outside" and "inside", "standing" and "sitting" in the sentence form a sharp contrast, which pave the way for Kong Yiji's appearance. The contrast between the two people reveals the customer's The disparity between rich and poor, the difference in social status.
2. Comparison with inherent contradictions:
Kong Yiji is the only person who drinks standing while wearing a long gown. "Standing and drinking" shows that Confucius lived in poverty, and his economic status and social status were the same as those of the "short-shirt gang"; "wearing a long shirt" shows that he pretended to be a scholar, envied those leisurely and wealthy people, and despised labor. The people do not want to associate with the "Jiaoyi Gang". The contrast between the way he drinks and the way he dresses reflects the contradiction between his economic status and ideology, thus revealing the special social status of Kong Yiji.
3. Comparison between "beating" and "being beaten":
A. Ding Juren beat Kong Yiji viciously
B. Kong Yiji had his leg broken
This set of comparisons reveals how the imperial examination system divided "scholars" into two opposing poles: some climbed up the imperial examination ladder, such as Ding Juren, who beat Kong Yiji at will and became an arrogant " Those who are "cannibals"; more people fell down, such as Kong Yiji, who was impoverished and became the target of being beaten and "eaten". This fact profoundly exposes the evils of the imperial examination system.
4. The contrast between "laughter" and "fate":
A. Kong Yiji's face is dark and thin, and he is already out of shape; he wears a torn jacket and sits cross-legged Legs... The look in his eyes was like begging the shopkeeper not to mention it again.
B. At this time, several people had gathered, and he and the shopkeeper laughed.
The novel describes in detail the tragic situation of Kong Yiji's last appearance, whose leg was broken by Ding Juren. Kong Yiji died amidst the laughter of the drinkers and shopkeepers. "Laughter" runs through the entire novel. This burst of laughter forms a strong contrast with Kong Yiji's unfortunate fate. It profoundly exposes the darkness and coldness of feudal society. , and also criticized the numbness of the masses.
5. Comparison between "plating" and "touching":
A. He did not answer, but said to the cabinet, "Warm two bowls of wine and ask for a plate of fennel beans." Then he discharged nine large sums of money.
B. He took out four coins from his ragged pocket and put it in my hand. I saw that his hands were full of mud...
The word "Pai" indicates that Kong Yiji I wanted to show my generosity to the "Jiaoyi Gang" who only spent four cents, and wrote his proud and showy look, which also showed his pedantic character; the word "touch" showed the slowness of Kong Yiji's movements, " The tight hiding of "four cents and a large amount of money" shows from the side that this money was hard-earned and that Kong Yiji has become further impoverished. The contrast between "arranging" first and "touching" later reflects Kong Yiji's deteriorating economic status.
< p> 6. The contrast between "disdain" and "dejection":A. Someone else asked again, "Kong Yiji, do you really know how to read?" "Kong Yiji looked at the person who asked him, showing an air of disdain to argue.
B. They went on to say, "How come you can't even get half a scholar? "Kong Yiji immediately looked depressed and uneasy, and his face was covered with a layer of gray.
Kong Yiji was proud of being a scholar, and never forgot to show that he was a scholar in front of everyone. "Yibang" was dismissive, and even when others teased him, he repeatedly showed arrogance of being conceited and self-admiring. Only when people asked "Why can't he even get half a scholar?" did he become distressed and uneasy , because he always wanted to pass the examination, but he never succeeded, which became his greatest pain and humiliation. This is enough to show the serious poison of feudal culture and the imperial examination system to the lower class intellectuals.
4. Composition using contrastive techniques
Among the bustling crowd around me, there are parents who love me, classmates who go to class with me every day, teachers who work hard... one of them left me A stranger who made a deep impression on me - the female sanitation worker. Last winter, the weather in Haiyan after the cold wave was extremely cold. I went to school in the morning, and when I got to Qiyuan Road, a biting cold wind suddenly blew by. I couldn't help but say: "Wow, good "It's cold!" When I looked up, I suddenly saw a middle-aged woman wearing an orange sanitation uniform sitting on a stone pillar on the side of Qiyuan. She was of medium height, with a ponytail, and her hair hanging down from her forehead looked... A little messy, with a few premature wrinkles on her dark face, and her dark purple lips were a little chapped. She was holding an old enamel cup in her left hand and a pair of bamboo chopsticks in her right hand, eating a cold breakfast in the cold wind. There was a garbage sweeper parked nearby. It was so cold, how could she eat in the cold wind? I curiously asked the aunt: "Auntie, aren't you cold?" The aunt smiled and said: "It's not cold, we are used to it." In a simple conversation, I found out that she was a worker at Haiyan Sanitation Station. They keep the city clean and tidy, regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter, and regardless of wind, frost, rain or snow, they go to work at 4 a.m. every day. When people are still sleeping soundly in sweet dreams, they are already cleaning the streets and alleys. With the " With the sound of cleaning, they silently worked hard and cleanly for the civilization of Haiyan. I looked at her hands covered with frost cracks, and a feeling of excitement suddenly surged in my heart, ah! What would Haiyan be like without their dedication without regrets? Whenever the sun rises and the city resumes a new day, who will think of the hard work of these urban beauticians? Maybe some people think that sanitation work is very vulgar and look down on them, but I think they are great and a group that deserves more respect from people because they have a kind, simple and hard-working heart. Thinking of this, I can't help but feel emotional for that person The aunt said: "Auntie, you have worked hard!". 5. Use the technique of contrast and foil to write a composition that begins with a description of the scene
The beginning of the composition (Shunde Teaching and Research Section) Jia Baoyu said a very insightful saying when commenting on the Grand View Garden: Everything that is beautiful must "have The principles of nature lead to the interest of nature."
Millions of candidates across the country are competing to write outstanding college entrance examination essays, and it is inseparable from a "reason" and "interest". "College Entrance Examination" magazine has collected and sorted out the excellent college entrance examination essays in recent years and found that there are many remarkable things, but all of them are shining with "wit" and "rational interest".
Just looking at the beginning and end of these articles is enough to make us feel gratified and inspired. We have made some classifications of them for you, maybe you can also learn from them.
1. Be the first to read the opening paragraph. The most taboo thing about the opening paragraph is that it gives people the feeling of digressing from the topic. It tells the marking teacher directly that the author has not reviewed the meaning of the question, and the composition score will be greatly reduced. Please look at the beginnings of several essays from the 2004 Guangdong College Entrance Examination.
Example 1 "Remembered by Language and Communication": "Look at the flowers blooming and falling, and the clouds rolling and relaxing. The bright sunshine in early spring reveals the breath of summer; the lush green clothing in midsummer indicates autumn. The harvest is abundant; the abundant fruits of golden autumn indicate the desolation of winter.
The four seasons cycle, autumn turns to winter, and everything in nature performs wonderfully. How can we look forward to the early spring if we have not experienced the baptism of severe winter. Hope? Our human society is like the natural world. Without the connection of language and different lifestyles, how can we connect the world as a whole and build a bridge of communication? "This metaphor is inappropriate at the beginning. The metaphor section does not lay out the similarities very well.
Why do you say that? Language and communication are the relationship between premise and result, but where does this relationship exist between "green clothing" and "harvest", "fruit" and "bleakness"? In particular, the rhetorical question "If you have not experienced the baptism of severe winter, how can you hope for the hope of early spring?" is even more inaccessible to the topic. Example 2 "Soul Interaction": "The big trees never laugh at the weakness of the grass. Although the grass is weak, it adds to the greenness of the grassland; peonies never laugh at the simplicity of wild flowers. Although wild flowers are simple, they bring infinite vitality to the earth.
The reason why big trees and grass, peonies and wild flowers can live in harmony is because they have the same language, communicate with each other, and have spiritual interaction. " When this beginning moves closer to the topic, it also fails to identify the similarities and seems far-fetched.
Example 3 "Language and Communication": "Language is a grass, communication is a green shade; language is a white cloud, communication is a cloud; language is a flower, communication is a A sea of flowers." This beginning treats "language" and "communication" as the relationship between the individual and the whole, without understanding the connection between the two.
The above three examples are all writing methods that use metaphors to break into the topic in order to increase literary talent. This is also the usual writing method of many candidates. If the examinee does not have an accurate grasp of the topic and gets off track at the beginning, his or her score will be seriously affected.
The following example illustrates the role of language more accurately and vividly. Example 4 "Communication starts with language": "Language is a bridge, connecting this shore and the other shore; language is a waterfall, connecting streams and deep pools; language is a rainbow, connecting the sky and the earth.
Only when language is expressed accurately can communication be successful. If the language is wrong, it may cause unpredictable consequences.
So how can we express language accurately and promote successful communication? ” Therefore, whether the opening is well written or not, the core issue still lies in reviewing the topic; when reviewing the meaning of the topic and solving the topic, seek accuracy first, and then seek image. The following introduces many ways to open the article.
1. Quote famous quotes ① Asking what is love in the world can directly teach people how to make love in life and death. Yuan Hao is really easy to ask and he is very good at asking.
His question can be said to have asked many people throughout the ages. How many people have made the final answer in life after paying a huge price?
But each family’s words are as different as each person’s face. Xi Shi said: “Love is a tool. .
..." ("Asking What Love Is in the World") ②In a church in the Middle Ages, a saint began his speech: "The reason why I became a saint is because I saw through it. Money, what's mine is everyone's. "Long years, a snap of a finger.
In a prison across the century, a thief began his life monologue: "The reason why I became a thief is because I have seen through money. Everyone is mine. " ("The Saint and the Thief") ③ Rodin, the master of aesthetics, once said: "Beauty is everywhere. For our eyes, it is not a lack of beauty, but a lack of discovery. "
Today, inspired by this innovative scholar, I want to say: "The answer is universal. For our heads, it is not a lack of thinking, but a lack of perspective. "Many times, we are confused by the incomprehension of a problem or wandering at the crossroads of multiple solutions. How to go becomes a puzzle in our hearts. We are often undecided and swayed. At this time, it is necessary to think from another angle. This will Give you more chances of success.
("Spinning the Kaleidoscope") 2. Use letter format skillfully ① Dear Grandpa Confucius: Hello! I am an ordinary descendant of yours. Thousands of years later, I dared to write you a letter, not only to send you my respectful greetings, but also to urgently await your advice on several difficult questions ("A Letter to Confucius") ②Abominable standard answer. : When I saw you, I was filled with righteous indignation.
So, driven by the flames of anger, I wrote this letter to denounce you. The answer is colorful, but you insist on wearing it. The hat of "standard".
You must know that countless tragedies have occurred just because of the word "standard". The following are your three major crimes:... (One of the "standard answers". "Letter") 3. Borrowing the writing style from Zhang Hui's novel ① "It is said that the general trend of the world must be united if it is divided for a long time, and it must be divided if it is united for a long time. ”
The era when the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu were at odds no longer existed. As the Yangtze River moved eastward, the waves wiped out all the heroes of the past. And Adou, the heir to the former Shu Kingdom, also became “lucky to miss Shu.” Now, the world has become the world of the "Sima clan"
("The Meeting of the Heroes of the Three Kingdoms") ② The Juyi Hall in Liangshanbo is now brightly lit and full of people. Gathered here, everyone is arguing.
What are they arguing about? It turns out that Liang Shanbo is going to be selected for the honorary title of "Tiger Fighting Hero". Whoever wins the award can sit on it. The second highest ranking in Liangshan Bo.
So all the heroes gathered here to argue.
