答案

Three years ago I failed an important exam in my life and became a student in an ordinary school. Disappointed as I felt at the shabby campus and the poorly-equipped classroom, I found the teachers patient and considerate. Besides, I enjoyed the friendly atmosphere in class. I decided to make the best of it. I worked hard and got along well with my teachers and classmates. Whenever I had difficulties, they were always available. Soon, I became one of the top students in my class, which greatly increased my confidence and got me motivated.
My experience tells me that it is not what you are given but how you make use of it that determines who you are.

解析

文章仅给出一句主题句，要求据此写作，属于完全开放性作文。写好该文，考生首先应认真审题，考题要求结合事例写作，故本文宜夹叙夹议，不可全写成议论文；在叙事时应注意用一般过去时。其次，应注意安排好文章结构。文章可用主题句作第一段，第二段根据主题句叙事，第三段作总结点题。在遣词造句上，考生应多用一些高级词汇和高级句型，如定语从句、倒装结构、非谓语动词等，多用一些连词如：on the one hand, on the other hand, besides等，以提高文章的档次。
