　　【思路点拨】 本文以“我们应该意识到，言语也可能会伤害别人”为题，让学生写一篇短文。体裁可为记叙文、议论文和说明文。但根据考生的实际情况，还是记叙文好些，可以通过自己的亲身体验来证明这句话。考生成文时应注意：1.结构上：采用三段成文，第一段引出话题;第二段讲自己的亲身体验;第三段说自己的认识，回归主题。2.时态：以一般过去时为主。3.人称：第一人称。4.注意恰当使用一些连词，使文章自然、流畅。5.适当使用一些高级句型和词汇以提高作文档次。

　　【湖北高考英语满分作文】

　　My classmate admires my fluent English very much and I usually feel encouraged by his compliments.

　　One day, when we learned the new word “eccentric” in class, we were asked to make a sentence with it.I volunteered to do it by saying “My deskmate is an eccentric boy whose clothes never fit him.” Hearing this, the whole class burst into laughter and my deskmate's face turned red. After class, I learned from the teacher that my deskmate would have dropped out of school if he hadn't been helped by others.My mindless words must have hurt him deeply.

　　Not until then did I realize words could be powerful in both positive and negative.We should avoid hurting others if we can't always be encouraging when we speak.
