答案

One possible version:
Someone says man is the maker of his own happiness, I think it is quite right . No one else can give it to us .Only through our own efforts can we gain happiness.
Then what is happiness ? Different persons may put forward various answers. But in my opinion, happiness means kindness, love and unselfishness. I"ll never forget an old lady. She lives in a small house alone. But the old lady often helps others with a smile. Whenever it snows, she is always the first to clean the paths. She looks after several children living nearby. Perhaps she is unlucky, but I think she is a happy person, and she has got real happiness.
In a word , it is only by bringing happiness to others that we can get happiness.

解析

试题分析：本篇书面表达中心话题是幸福，此话题贴近生活，学生们有话可说，但是在写作时一定要注意审题，不要跑题，要按要点提示去完成写作任务，在理解man is the maker of his own happiness这句话的基础上，提出自己对幸福的看法，以及如何去实现幸福。此外，在句型句式上要尽量有所变化，可以使用非谓语，倒装句等，不要使句式过于单一。在语言表达上要适当使用插入语，连接词等以使上下文语义连贯流畅，同时也使文章有层次感，有条理性。
【亮点说明】本篇范文第一段表明了自己对man is the maker of his own happiness这句话的理解；第二段论述自己对幸福的认识；第三段提出如何去获得幸福，这种三段式结构使文章结构清晰，层次分明。此外，作者使用了问句Then what is happiness ? 以及 短语in my opinion，In a word等起到了很好的承上启下的作用，使文章上下衔接更为自然。作者还使用了倒装句Only through our own efforts can we gain happiness.强调句In a word , it is only by bringing happiness to others that we can get happiness.让步状语从句 Whenever it snows等，这些表达都丰富了文章的句式，成为了文章的亮点。
