阅读下面短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
As a person in modern society，you should never forget that everyone needs encouragement. And everybody who receives it is changed by it. It was novelist Mark Twain who said :“One compliment can keep me going for a whole month.”      
The impact that encouragement makes on people can be deep and significant. A word of encouragement from a teacher to a child can change a life. A word of encouragement from a spouse
can save a marriage. A word of encouragement from a leader can inspire a person to reach his potential. Like Zig Ziglar says,” You never know when a few sincere words can have an impact on a life.”     
I’ve read that the 19th century writer Walt Whitman struggled for years to get anyone interested in his poetry. In the midst of his discouragement，Whitman received a life-changing letter from an admirer of his work. The note read:“ Dear sir, I am not blind to the worth of the wonderful gift of Leaves of Grass. I find it the most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom that America has yet contributed. I greet you at the beginning of a great career.” It was signed by Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Whitman enjoyed a long career and is now considered one of the giants of" American literature. But when times were tough，he needed encouragement to keep him going.
This season is the perfect time to give a gift everybody wants—and everyone needs.

答案

One possible version:
The writer tells us Whitman’s great success thanks to the timely encouragement from Ralph Waldo Emerson. He emphasized the importance of a word of encouragement that makes a life-changing impact on a person’s life.
It’s true that all people need encouragement from others, including our parents, teachers and friends. As a student, I have received encouragement from my teachers, classmates and parents many times. I remember once I was much discouraged and even ready to give up my maths study in Senior One. It was my teacher Miss Lin who helped me as much as she could. Now maths is one of my favorite subjects among all the subjects and I feel more confident in learning other related subjects.
No act is too small and no positive word too uninspired. Only when we get encouragement from others can we continue our career smoothly. Do give others encouragement whenever it is needed. 

解析

试题分析：本文是篇材料作文，内容要求学生先概括所给材料的中心意思，然后以事例说明鼓励对人的影响，谈谈个人的感想和认识。注意增加细节，使衔接合理，还要尽量用高中阶段学习词汇和句型。注意长短搭配。
【亮点说明】本文结构明确，思路清晰。第一段用34个词概括了所读文章的主要内容。接下来通过自己的亲身经历说明鼓励对人的影响。最后一段写明自己的认识和感想。在文章中，有thanks to、make a life-changing impact on等短语的应用，也有It’s true that主语从句和倒装句等较复杂句子的巧妙运用。
