Unlike expensive presents, this notebook carries deep love and warm memories that I will cherish forever. My grandma is not good at using electronic devices, but she has always been concerned about my studies and daily life. She spent nearly a month preparing this gift: she copied famous quotes about courage and perseverance in it, and wrote down little notes with her blessings, such as “Believe in yourself when facing difficulties” and “Cherish every moment of youth”. At that time, I was stressed about my midterm exams and felt quite frustrated. Her notebook encouraged me to keep going and gave me the strength to overcome challenges. This notebook is now placed on my desk. Whenever I flip through it, I can feel my grandma’s love. It’s not the gift itself that is valuable, but the care and encouragement behind it. It teaches me to be grateful and reminds me that true love lies in simple and sincere expressions. 【译文】 我收到过的最珍贵的礼物 我收到过的最珍贵的礼物是奶奶在我15岁生日时送我的一本手写笔记本。不像昂贵的礼物，这本笔记本承载着我将永远珍惜的深厚爱意和温暖回忆。 奶奶不擅长使用电子设备，但她一直关心我的学习和日常生活。她花了将近一个月准备这份礼物：在本子里抄写了关于勇气和毅力的名言，还写下了带着祝福的小笔记，比如“面对困难时要相信自己”和“珍惜青春的每一刻”。那时，我正为期中考试感到压力山大，情绪十分低落。她的笔记本鼓励我坚持下去，给了我克服挑战的力量。 这本笔记本现在就放在我的书桌前。每当我翻阅它，都能感受到奶奶的爱。珍贵的不是礼物本身，而是背后的关心与鼓励。它教会我要心怀感恩，也提醒我真正的爱在于简单而真诚的表达。 亮点词块 1.handwritten notebook 手写笔记本 2.carry deep love 承载深厚爱意 3.famous quotes 名言 4.overcome challenges 克服挑战 5.flip through 翻阅 6.sincere expressions 真诚的表达 7.be concerned about 关心 8.cherish forever 永远珍惜 高分句子 1.The most valuable gift I’ve ever received is a handwritten notebook from my grandma, which I got on my 15th birthday.（运用定语从句点明礼物核心信息，贴合单元语法延伸用法，开篇点题） 2.Unlike expensive presents, this notebook carries deep love and warm memories that I will cherish forever.（用对比手法突出礼物的独特价值，增强情感表达） 3.It’s not the gift itself that is valuable, but the care and encouragement behind it.（升华主题，点明礼物珍贵的本质，提升作文深度） 【拓展1】 你的班级举办“经典短篇故事赏析会”，请你写一篇短文，赏析欧·亨利的《麦琪的礼物》，重点分析其意外结局的妙处，词数不少于80。 Appreciation of O. Henry’s “The Gifts” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【拓展1范文】 Appreciation of O. Henry’s “The Gifts” O. Henry’s short story “The Gifts” is a masterpiece famous for its surprising ending, which deeply touches every reader’s heart. The story tells of a young couple, Della and Jim, who sacrifice their most precious possessions to buy Christmas gifts for each other. Della sells her beautiful long hair to buy a watch chain for Jim’s gold watch, while Jim sells his beloved watch to get a set of combs for Della. When they exchange gifts, they find their presents are no longer useful, but their love becomes more precious. This unexpected ending is the highlight of the story. It not only surprises readers but also reveals the true meaning of love: it lies in selfless dedication rather than material things. O. Henry’s writing is full of warmth and wisdom. The surprise ending makes the story unforgettable and teaches us to cherish the sincere love around us. It’s no wonder that “The Gifts” has become one of the most beloved short stories in the world. 【拓展1译文】 欧·亨利《麦琪的礼物》赏析 欧·亨利的短篇故事《麦琪的礼物》是一部以意外结局闻名的杰作，深深触动了每位读者的心。故事讲述了一对年轻夫妇黛拉和吉姆，为了给对方买圣诞礼物，牺牲了自己最珍贵的东西。 黛拉卖掉了自己美丽的长发，为吉姆的金表买了一条表链；而吉姆则卖掉了心爱的手表，为黛拉买了一套梳子。当他们交换礼物时，发现彼此的礼物都已不再有用，但他们的爱却变得更加珍贵。这个意外结局是故事的亮点，它不仅让读者感到意外，更揭示了爱的真谛：爱在于无私的奉献，而非物质的东西。 欧·亨利的作品充满温暖与智慧，意外结局让故事令人难忘，也教会我们珍惜身边真挚的爱。难怪《麦琪的礼物》成为了世界上最受喜爱的短篇故事之一。 【拓展2】 请根据以下提示，仿写一篇带有“意外结局”的短篇故事，运用介词相关语法，词数100左右，开头已给出。 提示 信息 核心内容 主角（学生林涛）、背景（为贫困山区儿童捐款活动）、情节（卖掉珍藏的邮票集捐款，却发现捐款箱丢失，最终得知邮票集被爱心企业家买下，捐款翻倍）、结局反转 语言要求 运用形容词/名词/动词后接介词的结构，贴合单元语法重点 Lin Tao was a kind-hearted student who always cared about people in need.

When his school organized a donation activity for children in poor mountain areas, he decided to do something meaningful. He had a precious stamp collection that he had been proud of for years—each stamp was a gift from his grandfather. To help the children, he made up his mind to sell the collection. After selling it for 500 yuan, he rushed to school to put the money into the donation box. However, he was shocked to find the box missing. Lin Tao felt sad and disappointed, as he was worried about letting the mountain children down. The next day, the headmaster called him to the office. A local entrepreneur had bought his stamp collection and donated 1,000 yuan in his name. “Your kindness is worthy of respect,” the entrepreneur said on the phone. Lin Tao’s eyes filled with tears—he never expected his small act of love would lead to such a wonderful surprise. 【拓展2译文】 林涛是一个心地善良的学生，总是关心有需要的人。当学校组织为贫困山区儿童捐款的活动时，他决定做一件有意义的事。 他有一套珍贵的邮票集，多年来一直为之自豪——每一枚邮票都是爷爷送给他的礼物。为了帮助那些孩子，他下定决心卖掉邮票集。以500元的价格卖掉后，他赶紧赶到学校，想把钱放进捐款箱。然而，他震惊地发现捐款箱不见了。林涛又伤心又失望，担心让山区的孩子们失望。 第二天，校长把他叫到办公室。一位当地企业家买下了他的邮票集，并以他的名义捐了1000元。“你的善良值得尊重，”企业家在电话里说。林涛的眼里充满了泪水——他从未想到自己小小的爱心举动，会带来这样美好的惊喜。 本话题作文的一些实用短语与句型积累 一、核心主题词汇 1.礼物与情感相关（单元重点） · 礼物相关：handwritten notebook 手写笔记本；stamp collection 邮票集；donation 捐款；blessings 祝福；precious possessions 珍贵的东西；electronic devices 电子设备 · 情感与品质：kind-hearted 心地善良的；selfless 无私的；sincere 真诚的；grateful 感恩的；courageous 勇敢的；perseverant 坚持不懈的；concerned about 关心；proud of 为……自豪；worthy of respect 值得尊重 · 语法相关：形容词后接介词（concerned about, proud of, worthy of）；名词后接介词（blessings for, donation to, respect for）；动词后接介词（care about, decide on, sell for, lead to） · 文学相关：surprise ending 意外结局；masterpiece 杰作；short story 短篇故事；plot 情节；highlight 亮点；selfless dedication 无私奉献 1. 语法相关（单元重点） · 形容词后接介词： · be concerned about 关心……：She is concerned about my studies.（她关心我的学习。） · be proud of 为……自豪：He is proud of his stamp collection.（他为自己的邮票集自豪。） · be worthy of 值得……：His kindness is worthy of respect.（他的善良值得尊重。） · be stressed about 为……感到压力：I was stressed about the exams.（我为考试感到压力。） · 名词后接介词： · blessings for 给……的祝福：She wrote blessings for me.（她为我写下祝福。） · donation to 给……的捐款：We made a donation to poor children.（我们给贫困儿童捐了款。） · respect for 对……的尊重：We have respect for the entrepreneur.（我们尊重这位企业家。） · quotes about 关于……的名言：He copied quotes about courage.（他抄写了关于勇气的名言。） · 动词后接介词： · care about 关心……：He cares about people in need.（他关心有需要的人。） · decide on 决定……：She decided on a handwritten gift.（她决定送手写礼物。） · sell for 以……价格出售：He sold the collection for 500 yuan.（他以500元卖掉了邮票集。） · lead to 导致……：His kindness led to a wonderful surprise.（他的善良带来了美好的惊喜。） 1. 表达类（单元基础） · 逻辑连接：unlike 不像；however 然而；whenever 每当；not only...but also... 不仅……而且……；as 因为；while 而 · 感悟表达：carry deep love 承载深厚爱意；overcome challenges 克服挑战；lie in 在于；cherish forever 永远珍惜；let...down 让……失望；fill with tears 充满泪水 二、实用句型积累 1.分享珍贵礼物（贴合单元核心） · The most valuable gift I’ve ever received is..., which... 我收到过的最珍贵的礼物是……，它……，例：The most valuable gift I’ve ever received is a notebook, which carries my grandma’s love. · Unlike..., this gift... 不像……，这份礼物……，例：Unlike expensive toys, this gift has special meaning. · It was given to me by...on... 它是……在……时候送给我的，例：It was given to me by my friend on my birthday. · What makes it valuable is not..., but... 让它珍贵的不是……，而是……，例：What makes it valuable is not the price, but the care behind it. 1. 赏析文学作品（贴合单元主题） · ...is a masterpiece famous for its..., which... ……是一部以……闻名的杰作，它……，例：“The Gifts” is a masterpiece famous for its surprise ending, which touches readers. · The story tells of..., who... 故事讲述了……，他/她……，例：The story tells of a couple, who sacrifice their possessions for each other. · The highlight of the story is... 故事的亮点是……，例：The highlight of the story is the unexpected ending. · It teaches us that... 它教会我们……，例：It teaches us that true love lies in selfless dedication. 1. 仿写反转故事（贴合单元内涵） · ...decided to...in order to... ……决定……为了……，例：He decided to sell his collection in order to help poor children. · However,... 然而……（转折引出意外），例：However, he found the donation box missing. · He/She never expected that... 他/她从未想到……（揭示反转结局），例：He never expected his kindness would lead to a big surprise. · The surprise ending makes the story... 意外结局让故事……，例：The surprise ending makes the story unforgettable. 三、课堂实用句型 · 提问句型：What is the most valuable gift you’ve ever received?；Who gave it to you?；What makes it valuable?；Have you read any stories with surprise endings?；What do you think of O.
