Answer 1

He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.
　　Many people around us are afraid of making mistakes. They even feel it a shame to make a
mistake. That’s completely wrong. Other people, however, think that making mistakes is an
essential part of growing. They don't care about making mistakes, they just want to experiment
and obtain experience.
As a matter of fact, no one never makes any mistakes. Children would fall down many times
before they can walk and no one could become an expert until he has failed over and over again.
As far as I am concerned, being afraid of making mistakes is a mistake itself. Only through mistakes can there be discovery or progress. Thomas Edison could not have become a scientist if he had not made thousands of mistakes. Making mistakes for pursuing truth is much better than doing nothing. That is, he who makes no mistakes makes nothing.

试题分析：这是一篇开放性作文，题目给出了一个话题，要求结合实例解释这个谚语。给考生自由发挥的余地较大。对于考生的综合能力要求较高，要求考生有很强的谋篇布局的能力和组织要点的能力。在完成开放性作文时，首先要选择自己熟悉的短语或者句型，在你的能力范围之内，选择句式时要赋予变化，因为这样你才可以更好的驾驭。同时也要选择合适的连接词，把各个要点组织成一个完整的整体，如besides, further, last but not least等。在发表个人观点的时候，可以使用谚语来提升整个文章的档次和文采，也能增加得高分的可能性。
【亮点说明】They even feel it a shame to make a mistake.这句话用的是it做形式宾语，Other people, however, think that making mistakes is an essential part of growing.这句话用了插入语和动名词做主语， Children would fall down many times before they can walk and no one could become an expert until he has failed over and over again.这句话用了两个时间状语从句， Only through mistakes can there be discovery or progress.这句话用了only的倒装句，. That is, he who makes no mistakes makes nothing. 这句话是一句谚语，还有文章还用As far as I am concerned,这样的关联词，使文章更加连贯。
