我最喜欢的一句名言（一句名言给我的启示）

一

失败乃成功之母。”这是我最喜欢的一句名言。人生就象一张多姿多彩的图画，成功和失败都是必不可少点缀。有人说：成功是鲜明的，失败是灰暗的。也有人说：成功是美丽的，失败是丑陋的。可我并不那么觉得。我认为，有失败，才有成功。

我听说过爱迪生的一个故事。一天，老师让每个同学做一张小板凳。当老师看到爱迪生交上来的那个小板凳的时候，问他：“这个世界上还有比这个更差的小板凳吗？”爱迪生老实地回答：“有。”说着把他做的前两个板凳拿出来。最后，爱迪生成了世界上很伟大的发明家。这也说明失败是成功的踮脚石，它可以为成功积累经验，激励我们向前进。

我也有过失败的经历。那是去年的暑假，太阳火辣辣地照射着大地，知了不停地叫着。外面有许多小孩子在外面买冰棍吃，而我，却在家里做着暑假作业中的数学题。闷热的天气让我汗流浃背，又遇到了“拦路虎”。我左思右想，都不对，思路对不上。再打电话问同学，他们都做好了，就是不肯告诉我。我已经热得不行了，头上直冒汗，连风扇也吹不凉。我双手一摊，不写了。可我那不服输的拽脾气又上来了：为什么别人可以我就不可以？我一定也可以！想着，立即拿出草稿纸，“刷刷”地算起来。“对了！”终于把那道题解开了。突然感到不那么热了。 失败是土壤，成功是种子；失败是阶梯，成功是顶峰．没有失败激励你的意志，就没有成功光临你理想的世界；没有失败奋发你的斗志，就没有成功为你的未来添彩。 这就是我最喜欢的一句名言：失败乃成功之母。我把它作为自己的座右铭，时刻提醒着我，要奋发向前

二

“世上无难事，只怕有心人。”这一句名言使我受到了很大的启发，并且一直激励着我。因此，它又成为了我的座右铭。

那一天，刚好碰上了国庆七天长假。所以，我的爸爸和妈妈决定带我们姐弟俩回家乡去登山。在早上八点，我们一家人来到了山脚下准备登山。那时正好下起了绵绵细雨，我心里想：太棒了！下雨了。下雨吧！下雨吧！下得越大越好，这样我们就不用去登山了。弟弟也像我一样，那么的开心。可是爸爸却说：“雨下得越大，我们就越要去登山，要有征服大自然的精神。”“啊？不会吧！”我和弟弟异口同声地叫了起来。我呆呆地站在原地不动，我仰望着耸立在眼前、高不可攀的山，我又看了看湿淋淋的地，我心里想：这么高的山，这么湿的地怎么走呀？只要一不小心就会摔倒了。可是，爸爸和妈妈已经向大山“进攻”了，我们姐弟俩也只好跟着他们往大山走去。

弯弯曲曲的山路崎岖不平，比我们平时走的路难走多了。好不容易我们才走到了半山腰，雨也停了，可是我已经累得气喘吁吁了。好累呀！望着高高的山，真想放弃往回走啊！于是我放慢了脚步，就在这时候，妈妈似乎看出了我心思，走到我跟前说：“莹莹，你想放弃吗？有一名言是这样说的：世上无难事，只怕有心人。只要你有恒心，坚持不懈，才能够战胜困难，取得成功。知道了吗？”我听了惭愧地点了点头，再次鼓起勇气一步一步向山顶走去。 经过我们的努力，终于走上了山顶，虽然很累，但是我的心里还是美滋滋的。我情不自禁地对着天空大声喊“我成功了”此时山谷回荡着我的声音，让我感到了成功的快乐。 通过这件事，我明白了一个道理：只要你努力付出了，就会得到回报。从此，“世上无难事，只怕有心人”。这句名言成为了我的座右铭。

在我的人生道路上，有一句话一直激励着我前进，陪我走到今天，那就是“书山有路勤为径，学海无涯苦作舟。”每当我做作业累的时候，一想起它，便鼓励自己，克服，克服，再克服。

记得有一次，吃过了晚饭，我便马上写起了作业。老师布置的作业并不多，不到半个小

时时间我就完成了。但是，《每课一练》里的一道题难住了我。我左思右想，始终也想不出解答的方法，这可怎么办呢？直到九点半了还是没有解答出来。我想：算了，反正明天老师会讲的。正当我换好睡衣上床睡觉的时候，猛一抬头，看见了墙上挂着的“书山有路勤为径，学海无涯苦作舟”这十四个字，一腔热血便涌遍全身。我想：要取得好成绩就得付出艰苦的努力。于是，我又拿起了作业本继续思考，我想起了老师今天说的话：“做数学题就好比工程师拆卸、组装一台机器，要先把应用题按照问题去分析，找出每一个有用条件，这就是“拆卸”；再依据条件列出综合算式，这就是“组装”。于是，我就学着工程师一样，把数学题一步一步拆开来分析，再合起来把它解答了。虽然我已经浑身乏力，但有一种无形的力量在支撑着我，让我和困难进行斗争。

古今中外所有成功的人，在成功的背后都淌了汗。比如张衡、爱因斯坦、居里夫人??是勤奋铸就了他们的辉煌，是勤奋书写了他们光荣的篇章！

这不是一个故事，而是一个深刻的哲理。“书山有路勤为径，学海无涯苦作舟”。

随着年龄的增长，知识面的扩展，我积累的名言和格言也日益增加，比如：“灵感只占百分之十，百分之九十是汗水”，“青春是有限的，智慧是无穷的”等等。在许许多多的名言和格言中，我最喜欢的是“逆境出人才”这句格言。

记得小时候，常听长辈们说这句话，那时我还不明白。后来，到了常熟来上学之后，我又一次听到了这句名言。那是刚来常熟不久，我就读在陈桥小学，由于基础不好，我没跟上大家的学习，成绩急剧下降，为此，班主任多次找我谈话。其中有一次谈话中，老师就对我说：“如今的环境变了，对你来说，可能多了许多困难，但是你要更加努力，在逆境中成才。”回家后，我把老师对我说的话告诉了爸爸，爸爸耐心地告诉我：“你现在不适应新的环境，与同学没什么交流，你现在就身处在逆境中，但是你必须要去面对，并要适应它。”我想：人穷志不短，环境不适应那是暂时的，我一定可以战胜它。 小 荷 作文网 爸爸的话让我想起了很多，古今中外，身处逆境而能克服困难，成为人才的例子比比皆是。高尔基小时候给人家做工，在老板的看管和毒打下还坚持看书，最终凭借自己的不懈努力成为了举世闻名的文学巨匠。张海迪在高位截瘫的情况下仍然克服困难，用功学习，取得了惊人的成绩。许许多多的事例都说明：逆境可以成才，关键要能够以顽强的意志奋发进取，才能取得成功。放眼社会，很多考上大学的学生，他们中有不少就来自条件较差的农村家庭。在贫苦中他们知道了努力的重要，也知道了自己的目标。如此，最终才成了才。

我的逆境和他们比真是微不足道，如今，再读这句名言时，我又有了新的领悟，我对自己的学习和生活更充满了信心，今后，不管在什么条件，环境中，我都会更努力地要求自己，时时提醒自己：逆境出人才。

“读一本好书，就像和许多高尚的人谈话”——高尔基

的确，读一本好书可以让人增长知识，开阔眼界，使人的境界更高一层。但在很多同学眼里，读书却像绳索、铁镣一样，捆住了自由，锁住了欢乐。我不这么认为。读书并不一定是只读课本，书的海洋广阔极了。

读史书，可以带我回到过去。一会儿是古巴比伦的空中花园，一会儿是古埃及的金字塔，一会儿见到了唐朝时期的繁荣，一会儿又看到了惨无人道的日本帝国主义侵华??读史书，让我有机会与那些历史人物“对话”。

读科技书，让我与那些科学家们“相处”。光阴似箭，岁月如梭。从最原始的马车，到冲上云霄的“神六”，这短短几千年间，又多么大的变化呀！这其中，凝聚着多少代人的辛苦与汗水！天文学家布鲁诺为了推广与坚持哥白尼的“日心说”，不顾宗教对他的陷害，依然站在真理这一边。结果被愚昧的宗教活活烧死。读到这里，我就不禁潸然泪下。当我看到爱迪生又发明了一样新东西时，我不禁眼前一亮！痛苦与快乐的交织，让我长大。

读生物书，让我“零距离”“接触”那些动物们，有时会把我带进危险的亚马逊丛林，

有时又把我带到美丽的尼罗河畔，有时还会把我带进荒无人烟的澳洲沙漠，有时又会把我放进蔚蓝的海洋，去看看那危险的大白鲨、温顺的海龟、体型庞大的鲸鱼。“游着游着”，就来到了冰天雪地的南极，一眼望去，只有高耸的冰山，不，还有可爱的小企鹅。

最惊险、最刺激的莫过于《福尔摩斯侦探集》。在书中，我感到自己也好似一个侦探，正与福尔摩斯一起侦破案件，或许是一个小小的细节，也有可能成为我们破案的关键?? 这就是读书，不！应该是读一本好书的佳妙效果。它可以让我看到人间的美与丑，善与恶，是与非，领略到民族的精神，英雄的气概，体会科技的进步与发展，游览大自然的无限风光?? 朋友们，记住这句话吧：读一本好书，就像和许多高尚的人谈话。

每个人都有自己喜欢的名言，我也不例外。我最喜欢的名言就是“不经一番彻骨寒，怎得梅花扑鼻香？” 我的脑海里常常浮现出这样一个画面：寒冬来临，百花早已凋谢，万物都失去了生机，只有腊梅花，在严寒中傲放，散发出阵阵清香。它顶着风雪，以顽强的意志，绽出最美丽的花朵，成为寒冬里一道亮丽的风景。每当我看到腊梅花，总会不由得对它产生敬佩，总会想到那句名言：不经一番彻骨寒，怎得梅花扑鼻香？ 是啊，梅花经历了风雪的考验，才有绰约的风姿和醉人的清香。“遥知不是雪，为有暗香来。”那阵阵清香来之不易，是腊梅灵魂的体现。我们在生活学习上不也是一样吗？只有像梅花那样不畏困难，勇往直前，才能有所作为，不会一事无成。

在我学习的道路上，也有过失败，流过泪水，但只要一想起这句名言，我的心便豁然开朗，多了斗志，少了失望。记得有一次考试，我一失手，留下了遗憾。从那次失败我看见了自己身上许多的不足，我做的，我所付出的远远不够，一些问题总是令我困扰，成为我学习上的绊脚石。那一段时间，有时候，我真的觉得这十年的光阴都白白流逝了，我的成绩依然如故，许多方面都有明显的不足，感到从未有过的压抑。曾有多少天，我一直在迷茫中度过。直到有一天，我想起了那句名言——不经一番彻骨寒，怎得梅花扑鼻香？我陷入了沉思。啊，梅花经历了考验，才有醉人的清香，而我们，也只有经历了挫折，才能有所成就。我虽然这次失败了，但是这并不表示永远失败！这次失败给了我经验和教训，从另一种角度来想，不也是一件好事情吗？它让我明白我该在哪里下功夫，吃一堑，长一智，焉知非福？ 让苦难芬芳吧！正如那句名言所说的那样，不经一番彻骨寒，怎得梅花扑鼻香？我们只有经历了风雨，吸取了教训，才不会一事无成。这句名言会一直刻在我的心里，我把它写在一块牌子上，让它时刻提醒我，鞭策我上进，勇往直前，它激励着我，给了我启发、力量，我喜欢它。

我看过的名人名言很多，如福楼拜的“最穷的是无才，最贱的是无志。”勃郎宁的“雄心壮志是茫茫黑夜中的北斗星。”但我最喜欢的一句是“失败乃是成功之母。”因为我曾有过这样的一件事，使我对这句名言深深地有所感悟。

有一天，妈妈带我去溜冰场溜冰。到了溜冰场，只见那里的人很多：有老年人，年轻人，小孩子。他们踩着溜冰鞋风驰电掣地奔跑着，真帅！那种感觉不知道多么让人羡慕。于是我迫不及待地穿上溜冰鞋，进入了溜冰场。我脚一蹬，跑了起来。“叮咚”一声，我摔了个嘴啃泥，耳边不时传来嘲讽的笑声。我心一凉，刚才的那股高兴劲儿早飞到九霄云外。可我不灰心，决定非要追上那些技术高超的人不可。于是第二轮自我测试开始。这次可跟上次不同了，我的双腿好比拖着千斤铁链，举步无力，怎么也抬不起来。这也难怪谁要我上次吃过苦头了呢！慢慢地我扶着栏杆走了两三圈后，自以为自己还可以了，便又大步地溜了起来，结果事与愿违，我以摔了个四脚朝天。为了不失风态，我连忙站了起来，继续溜。真是功夫不负有心人，我渐渐地掌握了溜冰的技巧，能轻松自如地随着音乐欢快地溜起来。

后来从这次失败中得出了我成功的结论：人经过多次失败后，只要坚持不懈，从失败中吸取教训，总结经验，胜利就会属于你，这个结论难道不是“失败乃成功之母”的真实写照吗？

你们有听说过这样一句名言吗？“今日事，今日毕”。这句名言就是我最喜欢的一句名言了。

为什么“今日事，今日毕”会成为我最喜欢的名言吗？当然，在生活里，我和这句名言有一段小故事。

在我上一、二年级的时候，做作业非常拖拉，每天就要做到十点、十一点才能做完，在周末，就更加不用谈了，暑假、寒假都是在最后几天，赶夜工赶出来的，有一次周末回家，我周五一直在看电视，爸爸妈妈陪外地来的人谈工作。周六，家里来了客人，我又不做作业，陪一个和我差不多大的小姑娘玩游戏，玩电脑。星期日，我又去公园里玩游戏。下午，妈妈看到我老不做作业，就开口问我：“你们怎么不做作业呢？”我无所谓地说：“只剩下一点点，十分钟就做完了，很快的。”妈妈听到我的话后，也就放心了。终于，夜幕降临了，我才想到我一点作业都没有完成，还有很多呢！我就开始赶夜工了。做到12点，我的眼睛开始眨巴眨巴起来了，嘴巴也不停地打着哈欠，睡意更浓了。妈妈看到我这副样子说：“你怎么现在还没有做完呢，不是说只要十分钟就可以做完了吗？”我感到很不好意思，低下头轻声说：“我??其实??其实我是骗??骗你的，我、我的??作业??一样也、也??没没没??没有完成。”妈妈也知道了实情，帮着我查字典，到了凌晨一点，还剩下一篇作文了！可是我一点也打不起精神来，不知不觉地低下了头来，睡着了。妈妈把我拉起来，生气地训斥我：“谁叫你不做作业，不能睡觉！你知不知道这样一句名言叫做‘今日事，今日毕’。你今天没做完，明天就要交了，你交不出来，你该怎么办？如果你现在做完，才能算今天的事情今天做完，赶快去做。”我以我最快的速度把作文写完了。妈妈又接着说：“读书也要今日事今日毕。你今天有不懂，就要去问老师，如果你不问老师，今天有不懂的，明天也有不懂的，你一直拖着??日积月累人家肚子里有好多知识，而你肚子里却空空，什么也没有。”我也知道了我自己所犯下的错误，所以我今后再也不敢拖拖拉拉了。

所以“今日事，今日毕”这句名言是我最喜欢的一句名言！

hand,no comparable hurry to promote creativity.American educators fear that unless creativity has been acquried early,it may never emerge;on the other hand,skills can be pick up later.However ,I do not want to overstate my case.There is enormous creativity to be found in Chinese scientific ,technological and artistic innovation past and prsent .And there is a danger of exaggerating creative breakthroughs in the West.When any innovation is examined closely,its reliance on previous achievements is all too apparent (the "standing on the shoulders of giants"phenomenon).But assuming that the contrast I have developed is valid, and that the fostering of skills and creativity are both worthwhile goals, the important question becomes this:Can we gather ,from the Chinese and American extremes, a superior way to/approach education, perhaps striking a better balance between the polse of creativity and basic skills?summarize vt.总结，概述originality n.新颖，独创性independence n.自主，独立contrast n.差异，对比harbor vt.怀有fearful a.担心的，害怕的comparable a.类似的，可比的promote vt.促进，推进emerge vi.出现pick up 获得，学会overstate vt.夸大，将...讲得过分enormous a.巨大的，极大地innovation n.革新，新事物exaggerate v.夸大，夸张valid a.有根据的foster vt.培养worthwhile a.值得的superior a.优良的；较好的plea n.请求fellowship n.奖学金rocket n.火箭ample a.充足的impose...on 将...加强于jet n.喷气式飞机tricycle n.三轮脚踏车ham radio 业余无线电台style n.(manner of doing things)bustle vi.(doing things in a hurried and busy way)on occasion 有时，间或not in the least(not at all)find one's way 到达；进入，流入bang v.猛敲，猛击neglect vt.忽视frown v.n.皱眉somewhat ad.有点，稍微initial a.开始的，最初的relevant a.有关的，切题的investigate v.调查；探究throw light on 帮助理解anecdote n.趣事，轶事colleague n.同事tender a.年幼的；温柔的vigorous a.精力充沛的，温柔的in due course 到时候，在适当的时候make up for 弥补，补偿principal a.主要的，首要的rear vt.养育，抚养critical a.危机的，至关重要的in retrospect 回顾come to sb's rescue 帮助某人clumsy a.笨拙的facility n.熟练，灵巧；设备，设施continual a.不断的，一再重复的work on/at 从事craft n.手艺，工艺reversal n.颠倒priority n.重点，优先考虑的事bold a.勇敢的，胆大的departure n.背离，出发，离开evolve v.逐步发展******************************************************************************************************Unit Fourthere is no doubt that ...是毫无疑问的more than just 不仅仅只是Hip-hop is huge,more than just rap music,it's a culture,a life style.appeared with 以
