The elephant and the fly
An elephant was standing and picking leaves from a tree. A small fly came，flying and buzzing (嗡嗡叫) near his ear. The elephant waved it away with his long ears. Then the fly came again, and the elephant waved it away once more.
This was repeated several times. Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and noisy? Why can’t you stay for a while in one place? ”
The fly answered, “I am attracted to whatever I see, hear or smell. My five senses pull me constantly in all directions and I cannot resist them．What is your secret? How can you stay so calm and still?”
The elephant stopped eating and said, “My five senses do not rule my attention. Whatever I do, I get involved in it. Now that I am eating, I am completely absorbed in eating. In this way I can enjoy my food and chew it better. I rule and control my attention, and not the other way around. So when you are in charge of your five senses and attention, your mind will become calm too.”

Answer 1

An elephant was constantly disturbed by a restless fly, who asked the elephant about the secret of remaining calm. The elephant revealed that calmness would be obtained when one’s senses and attention were focused.
After reading the story, I was inspired by what the elephant said. The ability to focus one’s attention is the key to success in doing anything. Just like the fly, a person who is easily distracted by the surroundings will feel restless and tired, unable to achieve his success.
This reminds me of what happened when I entered high school as a Senior One student. I was so excited to find that there were various student organizations and after-class activities intended for us students. It seemed that many groups were suitable to me. During the first term, I was attracted whenever there was a notice from a student group and I was eager to find out more about it. As a result, I didn’t spend enough time on my studies, nor could I settle down on my homework every day. Consequently, I failed in an important exam.
I have learned a lesson from this experience that one should focus on one thing at a time before he can get it well done, which is especially important for a Senior Three student. Becoming a Senior Three student, I intend to set a clear goal for myself first. Then I will give priority to what I will be doing and keep it up, trying to resist the temptation of other events. I am fully aware that only when I have a clear and determined mind can I achieve my goal in the end.

試題分析：本文分成兩個(gè)部分，第一部分簡(jiǎn)述短文內(nèi)容，要求簡(jiǎn)潔明快，不要拖拉，因?yàn)橛凶謹(jǐn)?shù)限制。所以不要使用復(fù)雜的句型，只要句意表達(dá)出即可。第二部分的要求較高，要求有一定的思想性。在表述講述因?yàn)樘�多干擾而受到影響的經(jīng)歷時(shí)盡量使用高級(jí)的詞匯和句式來(lái)提高文章的層次，表達(dá)個(gè)人觀點(diǎn)的時(shí)候要用適當(dāng)?shù)倪B接詞來(lái)連接，是文章成為有機(jī)的整體，不顯得拖沓。
