江苏省通扬泰徐淮连宿2020届七市二模语文试卷解析

2020届高三第二次调研测试 作文评分细则 作文题目： 根据以下材料，选取角度，自拟题目，写一篇不少于800字的文章；文体不限， 诗歌除外。 个人有记忆，民族有记忆，大自然也有记忆。记忆是一段经历，是一种积淀，是一笔财富…… 一、审题与立意 1.审题和立意 记忆是人对经历过的人、事、物的识记、保持或再现。材料的第一句话“个人有 记忆，民族有记忆，大自然也有记忆”明确了记忆的主体，个体的人、群体的民族、 自然界的生物都有记忆。从小到大、到老，人会经历各种各样的人、事、物，这些经 历会在大脑中留下痕迹。一个民族，从古到今会经历繁荣、衰败甚至会经历耻辱，这 些都会成为民族的记忆。大自然的各种生物在生长过程、进化的长河中也会出现重复 或类似的情况，这些是大自然的记忆。 材料的第二句话“记忆是一段经历，是一种积淀，是一笔财富……”阐述了“记忆”的价值意义，记忆的前提是经历了一段特定的时光、过程，然后积淀在个人、民族、 大自然的“大脑”中，对个人、民族、大自然的“成长”、发展起着启发、警醒或激 励等积极的作用。 理解材料时，要明确“记忆”的特点。“记忆”的前提是在一段时间内经历过特 定的人、事、物，留下明显的印象，一直储存在“大脑”中，记忆的主体应“念念不忘”。记忆是对过往经历的回忆，但不是对成长、发展历程中早已淡忘的、没有对主 体起到一定作用的回忆。 2.立意 材料中的“记忆”应是对记忆主体能起到正能量的一段“经历”，行文时不能脱 离这个立意。即使过去的经历算不上繁荣、成功，但若能对记忆主体起到正面作用， 视为符合材料立意。不管是正面的肯定还是反面的警醒，最终指向应落到人类对真、善、美的追求这个核心价值观上来。 3.写作注意点
