Question

There was a story about Ken Davis, a man who found a simple way to enjoy his work. Ken just couldn’t find a suitable job. He worked at a variety of jobs and disliked them at all. While Ken was working as a door-to-door salesman, he noticed that at least half of his customers had broken-down doorbells. And suddenly, Ken’s life career became clear. He opened his own doorbell repair service.

Ken’s wife laughed when she first heard his idea. When she realized he was serious, she cried. Whoever heard of making a living by repairing doorbell? But Ken was making a comfortable living at his unique job, and he was happier than he’d ever been.

Ken didn’t enjoy what he was doing, but now he is enjoying what he is doing because he has got to realize that he is working for himself. Because of his passion for work, he is more devoted to it and does his work more creatively and efficiently.

The biggest mistake that you can make is to believe that you are working for somebody else. Remember, jobs are owned by the company; you own your career!

No matter where you work, you work for yourself! With a little creativity and imagination, your work can seem less like boring work and more like play. To enjoy your work more, it helps to put some play in what you do. Wouldn’t you rather have it that way?

Answer 1

(In the story above,) Ken enjoyed his job of repairing doorbell and he worked more effectively with his passion, because he changed his attitude and he thought he was working for himself, which shows us that putting some play in our work helps us enjoy what we are doing.

After reading the passage, I really feel delighted to find Ken enjoys/enjoyed his work. Above all, we should have the same attitude toward what we are doing because only by thinking that we work for ourselves can we have great passion for our work and study.

My father works in a bank. He drives to work and begins his job at eight o'clock every morning. He speaks to people politely no matter who they are and where they come from. When people come to his bank to ask questions about their accounts, he serves them heart and soul. He often tells me that he enjoys his work because by working he has an opportunity to challenge himself. Not only does he work for himself but also he works for others. From the work he sees his value, of which he is proud.

As a Senior 3 student, I can also enjoy my study because I am so lucky to have chances to study for myself and realize my dream. To achieve this, I should combine study with pleasure and care more about my progress instead of my failures so that I can learn efficiently and creatively.

試題分析：本次作文為開放性作文，先給出素材，讓考生在此基礎上發(fā)揮。此外，只規(guī)定了寫作方向，并無具體的寫作要點，這就使得寫作的難度更大、要求更高。而與此同時也讓考生思維和寫作能力得到了極致的發(fā)揮。當然，寫作時尤要注意文章結構的合理，表述的條理性和準確性。

寫作亮點：該范文結構清晰，要點全面（第一段：準確概括素材；第二段：作者的感悟；第三段：身邊的實例；第四段：享受學習），語言規(guī)范，語篇連貫。尤為突出之處在于，句式的巧妙運用，例如：非限制性定語從句“…，which shows us that putting some play in our work helps us enjoy what we are doing.”；賓語從句“we should have the same attitude toward what we are doing”；倒裝句式“Not only does he work for himself but also he works for others.”。
