A motto is a short statement given a rule on how to behave, which can inspire us especially when we faced with difficulties. Many of us have our motto, such as “Where there is a will, there is a way” or “Nothing is difficult if you put your heart into it”, and so on. My motto is “God helps those who help them.” Sometimes I am lazy and don’t want to make efforts, but at the moment I think of my motto I will get energetic again and devote myself to that I am doing. I write my motto where I can see it easy. Every time I fail in my exam and begin to lose heart, a sight of my motto inspires me with much confidence. However, my motto also makes me become an independent person.

My friends, unless you don’t have a motto, please choose one because a motto can have a great effect on you.

【解析】

【语篇解读】本文主要讲述座右铭对人的激励作用。

第一处：give和statement为主谓关系，所以用现在分词作后置定语。故given改为giving。

第二处：sb. be faced with…是固定搭配，指“某人面对……”，主语复数形式。故加are。

第三处：此处主语为Many of us，指“我们很多人应该有很多座右铭”，所以应用复数形式。故motto改为 mottos

第四处：定语从句中主语和宾语一致，所以此处应用反身代词。故them改为themselves。

第五处：此句意应为：我一想起我的座右铭，我就会精力充沛。the moment在句中作连词，引导时间状语 /span>从句。故去掉at。

第六处：据句子结构可知，此处为宾语从句，do为及物动词，缺少宾语，what引导名词性从句，在从句中 作句子成份。故that改为what。

第七处：句意：我能轻易看到它的地方。修饰动词see，应用副词形式。故easy改为easily。

第八处：固定搭配 the sight of 指“一看见”。故a 改为the。

第九处：跟据后一句句意：让我也更加独立，可知，此处不是转折关系，而是递进关系。故However改为 Besides/Furthermore/Moreover。

第十处：语境：如果你还没有座右铭，请选一个吧，它会对你产生很大的影响。故unless改为if。
