高二英語(yǔ)作文：The Most Inflence People in My Life

      The most inflence people in my life 

 

      Perhaps the most vital person I have ever met is an Italian professor of philosophy who teaches at the University of Pisa．Although I last met this man eight years ago， I have not forgotten his special qualities．First of all，I was impressed by his devotion to teaching． Because his lectures were always well-prepared and clearly delivered， students swarmed into his classroom． His followers appreciated the fact that he believed in what he taught and that he was intellectually stimulating．Furthermore， he could be counted on to explain his ideas in an imaginative way，introducing such aids to understanding as paintings， recordings，pieces of sculpture， and guest lecturers． Once he even sang a song in class to illustrate a point． Second， I admired the fact that he would confer with students outside of the classroom or talk with them on the telephone． Drinking coffee in the snack bar， he would easily make friends with students． Sometimes he would challenge a student to a game of chess． At other times， he would join groups to discuss subjects ranging from astronomy to scuba diving． Many young people visited him in his office for academic advice； others came to his home for social evenings． Finally，I was attracted by his lively wit． He believed that no class hour is a success unless the students and the professor share several chuckles and at least one loud laugh．Through his sense of humor， he made learning more enjoyable and more lasting．If it is true that life makes a wise man smile and a foolish man cry，then my friend is truly a wise man． Probably the best example of his wit is this bit of wisdom with which he once ended a lecture：It is as dangerous for man to model himself upon his invention， the machine，as it would be for God to model Himself upon His invention．

 

 

        也許，我所遇見(jiàn)的最有活力的人要算一位在比薩大學(xué)教書(shū)的意大利哲學(xué)教授。雖然我還是八年前見(jiàn)過(guò)他，但我并沒(méi)有忘記他的特點(diǎn)。首先，他給我的印象是熱心教學(xué)。因?yàn)樗恼n總是準(zhǔn)備充分旦表達(dá)清楚，所以學(xué)生們總是蜂涌著來(lái)聽(tīng)他講課。他對(duì)自己所教授的內(nèi)容深信不疑，他很能激發(fā)求知欲，這些受到他的追隨者的贊賞。而且，他總是利用圖片、錄音、雕塑等工具，或者請(qǐng)來(lái)特約教師，以一種形象的方式來(lái)解釋他的思想。有一次，他甚至在課堂上唱起一首歌來(lái)闡明一個(gè)論點(diǎn)。其次，我很欣賞他那同學(xué)生進(jìn)行課外討論或者進(jìn)行電話交談的作法。在快餐館喝咖啡的時(shí)候，他能平易地與學(xué)生交朋友。有時(shí)，他會(huì)跟一個(gè)學(xué)生來(lái)一盤(pán)棋，有時(shí)又參加集體討論，話題從天文學(xué)一直到潛水。許多青年人常去他辦公室請(qǐng)教學(xué)術(shù)問(wèn)題；還有些人去他家參加社交晚會(huì)。最后，我常為他的機(jī)智所打動(dòng)。他認(rèn)為，師生在課堂中如果沒(méi)有一些會(huì)意的笑，沒(méi)有一次開(kāi)懷的大笑，那么這堂課就不能算成功。在他的幽默感染下，學(xué)習(xí)變得更為輕松愉快，也更能持久。生活使智者微笑，使愚者哭泣，如果此話當(dāng)真，那我這位朋友肯定是個(gè)智者。關(guān)于他的機(jī)智，最好的例子可能就是有一次他結(jié)束講課時(shí)所說(shuō)的一句智語(yǔ)：上帝模仿自己的發(fā)明是危險(xiǎn)的，人類模仿自己的發(fā)明機(jī)器也是危險(xiǎn)的。
