A teacher's evaluation of a final essay attracted a lot of attention. The teacher sighed, "If I could, I would really like to give this essay full marks." However, because the student's essay did not match the requirements, the teacher could not really give a perfect score. The student himself admitted in the essay: "This is an essay that has nothing to do with the topic, and the teacher can directly give 0 points." In fact, according to the essay standards, this essay can only get zero or very few face marks.
The teacher's eagerness to give a full score and many netizens were deeply moved, and they were looking forward to the teacher being able to help this student. The essay gained huge attention on social media, with 690,000 likes, more than 100,000 favorites, and more than 400,000**. So what exactly does this sensational essay look like?
The title of the essay is "How should I live this life?" The three words "in the end" in the title are separated by commas from the following content, which seems to express how clear and certain the author's inner entanglement and confusion are.
The essay mainly describes the current state of mind of the student. Specifically, the article describes "I" having difficulty adapting to the fast-paced life of school, reading in the morning every day, and everyone seems to be only focused on "studying, studying, learning". However, "I" often doze off and think about the meaning of life without getting a clear answer. The article also wrote that "I" lacked the goal of hard work, and lived in a mess all day long, but I couldn't find someone to talk to, and even if I did, I couldn't get resonance, and even had the idea of taking a leave of absence. Finally, the article points out that "I" felt like an adult even though I was only 17 years old.
Despite being off topic, the idea of the article is still quite clear. Starting from the lethargic state in the examination room, the whole state of learning is introduced, and then the confusion of many aspects is deeply expressed, and finally a sentence similar to sublimation appears, expressing the search for the meaning of life: "Maybe I have spent my whole life looking for this answer, which is the meaning of my life." ”
The expression of the composition is also very delicate. It can be seen that this student has good expression skills, delicate thoughts, and sensitive hearts, but he may indeed be in a more confused state at present. Perhaps, there are other emotions that have plunged him into an indescribable state.
In fact, many students feel lost in the face of the future, or even remain in a state of confusion and helplessness. However, they usually don't express this emotion so clearly, but set themselves some small goals while being confused, and slowly work towards achieving them. Even if there is a feeling of confusion all the time, it is not likely to be written in the composition.
In the article, there are some sentences that express the 17-year-old student's understanding of life, such as "I don't want to be rich and rich, I just want to be a member of the crowd", "I seem to have suddenly become like this, looking back on my junior high school life, I am so lively and energetic", "Why can't others adapt to you, because I am not someone else", etc. These expressions reveal the author's sincere emotions and show a true feeling that comes from the depths of his heart. Sometimes, this visceral emotion is more motivating than any writing technique.
The message was full of encouragement and support for the 17-year-old high school student:
If you have the opportunity, I would like to ask you to tell that classmate that if you feel unhappy, you can write down your inner thoughts and live with your heart. I felt that he had a talent for writing. ”
I came across this story in a school information class and was deeply shocked and admired your courage. The content of the story is so true, I can't calm down for a long time, thank you. ”
The child seems to be ahead of his peers, trying to think seriously about the meaning of life. ”
The 17-year-old high school student was given deep care. Everybody thinks he's brilliant and unique. However, when he is lost in the middle of his life and uncertain about his future direction, he still needs to participate in his studies like any other student, listen carefully to lectures, complete homework, and participate in morning reading and evening self-study. As he grows older, he may find a clear purpose in life, and at that point, he will be grateful that he didn't give up on his studies.
Many netizens left messages for the teacher to convey information, hoping that the student can spend every day positively and optimistically. The teacher responded to netizens in the comment area, saying that he would fully support the student.
This essay is actually a bit like a letter for help, the author is full of helplessness, not knowing who to confide in, and not knowing where to start. He longs to change the status quo and return to his sunny old self. Perhaps this is a difficult problem in the process of growing up, and I hope he can face it bravely and overcome this bump. May our education be able to help him and others in need.
