【作文示范】
the man of great importance
many years ago a group of soldiers
were busy repairing a ruined①bridge. the
work was directed by a corporal②, who
thought he was a very important man and
so he gave his commands in a very loud
voice. the men were trying to get a wooden
log to the top of a mound③, but they were
not strong enough. one more pair of arms,
and the work would have been easy④. yet,
the corporal did not offer to help in any
way. he simply stood and shouted his
commands.
“now, you fellows,” he shouted,“put
you backs into it! don＇t stand looking at
it----move it!”
a gentleman dressed as a civilian,
who happened to be walking by, stopped
and watched, and then asked the officer
why he did not help.
“do you know who i am, sir!”asked

the officer, with indignation and
astonishment⑤.“i am a corporal.”
“oh!”said the other. “i beg your
pardon, i am sure.”
then the newcomer threw off his coat,
and going to the little group of men,
helped them, so that the log was soon in
position. the corporal did not even thank
the gentleman for his help, but as the
civilian put on his coat again, he said
quietly:“the net time you have a task of
this kind in hand, sir, and have not enough
men, just send for me and i will come and
help.”
“may i ask your name?”asked the
corporal.
“yes, sir,”replied the gentleman,“my
name is george washington and i am
commander-in-chief of the army. goodbye,
sir.”
the civilian walked away, and the
corporal stood still, unable to say a word.

③mound [maund] n．土墩
④one more pair of arms, and the

would have been的虚拟语气形式。意思
是：如果再多一双手，活儿就容易干了。

【写法指要】
本文写得非常有趣：小人物充大人
物，大人物扮小人物；小人物自高自大< br>瞧不起大人物，大人物没架子帮助小人
物；小人物不办事，大人物办实事。真
正的要人是 办实事的人而不是光发号施
令的人。文章除了写得妙趣横生外，题
目用的也值得称赞：这里用了 importance
的两层意思：一是“重要，重大”，二是“傲
慢，自大”。所以，和文章 结合起来看，
