12月的四级作文要求写一篇意志和成功的关系的短文。
首先，这个题目没有任何题材范围上的突破，和大开云kaiyun(中国)生的日常生活和成长有关。
第二，这个题目其实很有利于考生的发挥。可以引用名人名言来开篇，也可以引用成功的实例或者自己的经历加以佐证。但是要注意，情绪渲染点到为止，否则，不仅不会打动阅卷老师，反而有不够缜密和结构松散之嫌。
第三，四级作文要求大家应该体现出亮点，体现出英语(论坛)语言水平，方式很多，比如非常用词替换常用词，特殊句式，从句的使用等等，。就今年12月这个题目而言，可以用一个虚拟语气的句子，“如果…….就（不）……..”。比如在谈曾经的因为有坚强意志而成功的一个例子时，可以用Had I not done sth，I would have这样的句式。
第四，不要聪明反被聪明误，有同开云kaiyun(中国)会论述意志力的重要性，然后“辩证地”谈只有意志力也不行等等。这回削弱自己主题的表达，而不是什么“证全面”。
2011年12月四级作文真题及范文（文都版）
【参考范文1】
“Where there is a will, there is way” is an old proverb which almost everyone knows, but not all understand it so well. Actually, it means that if you are really resolved to do something, no matter how difficult it might be, never give up.
In fact, strong will is a kind of good quality which successful people should own. A great man is always one who has a firm resolution and an inflexible spirit. One will never succeed all his life without a firm will to get the final victory. As a rule, great tasks are accomplished by men of strong will. For example, Dr. Sun Yatsen, the founder of the Republic of China, set the Chinese people free from the Manchurian rule through a long period of hard struggle. Many of his attempts failed and many of his followers were killed, but he had an inflexible spirit and stuck to his cause. Finally, he made the revolution of 1911 a success. The same is true of men in all walks of life.
It is quite obvious that there is nothing difficult in the world, if you make up your mind to do it, you will certainly accomplish your end. That stands to reason. So as for students like us, we should have a good attitude towards failure. Facing with difficulties and failures, keep heads up and never give up. Besides, we should make full preparation, though strong will help us overcome the difficulties, it is not for person who has no preparation.
