Answer 1

Forgiveness is not something you give to someone else. It is a gift you give to yourself.
A few months ago I entered for the election of monitor of our class. Unfortunately, my efforts ended in failure because my closest friend carelessly let out my plan to my opponent. Naturally, we broke up. So disappointed was I that I couldn’t focus my attention on anything. How tough a time it was until one day it flashed upon me that if I refused to forgive him, I would remain a prisoner of my hatred at the cost of a friend. I didn’t keep this “incident” in my mind any more. Gradually I recovered and we were friends again.
My forgiveness proved a great gift as it not only set me free but also won me a friend back.

試題分析：考查開放性作文。開放性作文給出了一個話題，并有部分的文字提示。給考生自由發揮的余地較大。對于考生的綜合能力要求較高，要求考生有很強的謀篇布局的能力和組織要點的能力。在完成開放性作文時，首先要選擇自己熟悉的短語或者句型，在你的能力范圍之內，選擇句式時要賦予變化，因為這樣你才可以更好的駕馭。同時也要選擇合適的連接詞，把各個要點組織成一個完整的整體。
【亮點說明】范文用了一些常見短語：end in failure“以失敗告終”， let out 泄露，broke up. 分手，at the cost of以…為代價， keep… in my mind 記住，not only… but also…不但，而且，還有范文中的句式也很出彩： Forgiveness is not something you give to someone else. It is a gift you give to yourself. 這兩句話都用了定語從句。Unfortunately, my efforts ended in failure because my closest friend carelessly let out my plan to my opponent. 這句話用了原因狀語從句，So disappointed was I that I couldn’t focus my attention on anything. 這句話是倒裝句，How tough a time it was until one day it flashed upon me that if I refused to forgive him, I would remain a prisoner of my hatred at the cost of a friend.這句話用了感嘆句，賓語從句，和條件狀語從句。
