〖满分佳作赏析〗

A Friend in Need Is a Friend Indeed

患难见真情

A life without friends is a life without sunshine! Friends try their best to help you without thinking of what they can get from it.

Once I doubted the usefulness of study, losing my interests and direction, even confidence. Finally, I decided to stop studying. After knowing the news, my friend encouraged me patiently. She insisted on persuading me until I promised to give up this thought.

Later, I made up my mind to study hard so as to enter my dream university.

Many people will be in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart. True friends always come to you when you need help.

范文二：

Where There s a Will, There s a way

有志者事竟成

Among all the instructive proverbs, the one I like most is "Where there is a way, there is a way", which tells us that we should stick to our dreams.

For me the saying has special meaning. When I was in Junior Middle School , I was so poor in my studies that I nearly gave up. But my head-teacher was always there and give me confidence every time I lost heart. He used to say, "A little more effort and you will make it”Thanks to my dearest teacher, all my efforts paid off and finally I became a top student.

Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. As long as you keep trying, you ll make it.
