The purpose of the slogan composition of the new course of the college entrance examination in 2012 is "The Ship Owner and the Painter".

Easy work is also a virtue

The loopholes on the ship are not within the scope of the painter's agreed work. As long as the paint is painted, the task is considered completed, but the painter took the opportunity to paint the holes on the ship. Fixing the loopholes was such an inadvertent "little effort", but it prevented a major accident from happening.

After reading this story, one is reminded of another story. One afternoon when heavy rain poured down instantly, a dripping old woman staggered into a Philadelphia department store. Seeing her embarrassed posture and simple dress, all the salespeople turned a blind eye to her. At this time, a young man came out and walked into the inner room and brought out a chair. "Madam, don't be embarrassed, just sit on the chair and rest." The young man's name is Philly, and the old woman is the mother of the American billionaire "Steel King" Carnegie. Later, Philly came to Carnegie Corporation, and with his consistent honesty and sincerity, he became the right-hand man of the "Steel King". With a little effort, Feili achieved his great cause of "sweeping the world". Although the two stories are different, the results are unusual.

You don’t need to pay much for a little effort, and it doesn’t cost much. It’s simple, you can do it with just a raise of your hands, but it brings unexpected good effects to others and society. . In real life: many people give up their seats to people in urgent need of public transportation; when they see an elderly person falling, they help him up; in public places, it is not uncommon to turn off the lights and turn off the faucet. It requires careful observation. It seems simple with a little effort, but it reflects an inner virtue.

Compared with the earth-shattering miracles, a little effort is insignificant, but from the small you can see the big, and from the small you can see the spirit. The ancients said: "If you don't accumulate small steps, you can't reach a thousand miles." To be successful, a person must not only To do big things, you must start from small things. You must not only do the things within your job, but also do the things outside your job. Details determine success or failure. Only those who pay attention to details can devote themselves to their work, be rigorous and serious in their work, and get used to it. Those who can do something with a little effort are those who are broad-minded, can think of others, and take others into consideration. Society needs warmth and sincerity between people. Everyone gives a little love and a little effort, and society develops. will be better.

The shipowner gave the painter a large sum of money, which was not just money, but a kind of repayment of gratitude. With a little effort, Philly achieved his great cause of "sweeping the world". It is true that everyone who raises their hands does not expect anything in return, but it is engraved in people's hearts that this kind of reward is unexpected and more precious than money. Everyone can do it with a little effort. I hope that there will be more such painters in the society. At the same time, I also hope that those who get help can be like the ship owner, be knowledgeable and sensible, reward those who love, and jointly create a "I love everyone, everyone loves me" "Good atmosphere.

Teacher Wang Yanxue’s comments:

The purpose of this article is very clear. Doing a little work is a virtue. It is written from the perspective of a painter who can do a little work to avoid major accidents. It is indeed true. A kind of virtue, and uses the method of connection argument to write that Carnegie's mother created a generation of great men because of the effort of a hand. It also uses the method of logical argument to explain that although the effort of a hand is sometimes insignificant, it can be seen from the small to the big, and the spirit can be seen from it. The reasoning is sufficient, but the lack of examples and persuasiveness makes the content not rich enough and a bit thin. The last point is that everyone can do it with a little effort, which is also a good point.

Hope it helps you
