The Devotion of Love
Dear friends, you may have heard the song----The Devotion of Love①. It has been very popular since 1988, and is enjoyed by more and more people. Why? Because it has been sung for the people. As long as everyone devotes a little love, the world will be even more beautiful.
Whenever I hear the song, I can＇t help thinking of my dear teacher,Mr. Wang. He gave his life to the cause of education. He will be remembered as an engineer of the soul forever. As his student, I will never forget those days that we spent together.
He was a kind and warm-hearted man. The moment I saw him, I felt as if he were my father. In class, he was strict in our studies. But in the spare time, he was our good friend. He often taught us how to play the violin, to sing, and to draw pictures. He cared not only for our studies but also for our minds. Whenever we had difficulties in our studies or in our daily life, he would encourage us to overcome them. When we failed in our exams, he would help us, “Don＇t lose heart, work harder and you will succeed.” On his holidays, he would give up his rest to help those who had difficulty in their studies so that they could catch up with the other students. He was just like a candle, burning himself away to provide light for other. He was such a good teacher that all of us loved and respected him.
But a year ago, word came that Mr. Wang died of cancer. Hearing this, I couldn＇t help crying. I remember the song of Small Grass: No sweeter than a flower, no taller than a tree…. Small grass is ordinary, but grand②. Mr. Wang is a blade③ of small grass. He gave his students all his love. Mr. Wang will live in our hearts forever.

【寫法指要】
這是一篇文筆優(yōu)美的抒情文章，展現(xiàn)了一名學(xué)生對(duì)老師深情的愛。文章開頭是一小段關(guān)于歌曲《愛的奉獻(xiàn)》意境的描寫，作者由歌聲想到與他們朝夕相處的王老師——他就是一位為教育事業(yè)奉獻(xiàn)了“愛”的人。他愛同學(xué)、愛工作、愛生活，可惜因患癌癥而去世。他把一生都獻(xiàn)給了人民。由此，作者又想起了《小草》歌：雖然王老師像小草一樣平凡，但他卻像小草一樣崇高（grand）。因此作者說，王老師就是人們常常比喻的像蠟燭一樣燃燒了自已，照亮別人的教師的代表。全文情真景美，緣情設(shè)景，情由景發(fā)，景由情生，情景交融，相映成趣。
