在亿万孩子茁壮成长中，是谁告诉他们如何做人?是谁给他们传输知识?是谁对他们如同对自己的孩子一般?不用说了，那就是有被称为“人类灵魂工程师”的——老师。为了你们的成长，老师们含辛茹苦，煞费苦心。
曾经，你是一棵嫩绿的芽儿，大树为你遮阴挡雨，微风为你送来清凉，然而，沐浴在老师智慧的阳光里，茁壮成长在老师知识的土地上，你们的生活才慢慢变得缤纷、绚丽。
是老师渊博的知识，让同学们们感受文明与希望;是老师宽广的胸怀，让大家懂得宽容与忍让;是老师慈善的目光，让你们由懦弱变得坚强。当同学们遇到挫折灰心丧气时，是老师在你们心田播种希望;当你们取得成功一帆风顺时，是老师及时开出“骄兵必败”的良方。老师总是笑语盈盈，让大家充满力量。即使偶尔愠怒的目光，也让你们感到亲切与盼望。
老师是多么伟大。有人把老师比做水，说她滋润了一片幼苗;有人把老师比做蜡烛，说她燃烧了自己照亮了别人;还有人把老师比做辛勤的园丁，说她用毕生的心血精心得浇灌着你们这些祖国的花朵。日升日落，老师挥洒着血汗，寒冬酷暑，老师永远满腔热情，指引着你们不断前进。在将来，无论你会成为挺拔的乔木，还是低矮的灌木，都将会用生命的全部向老师致敬。在此，对于那些不尊重老师的学生，你们应当反省一下自己，应当给老师送上最虔诚的祝福与最真挚的谢意。
在我的成长道路上，有许多人要感谢，但是我们要感谢的就是我们的父母。我们的父母从我们生下来的哪一刻就为我们操劳，所以我们要感恩父母。可是真正做到感恩父母的人却少甚少。
作为21世纪的我们，首先就要对父母“滴水之恩，当涌泉相报”。当然这是我们长大以后的事情，现在我们要做的就是给父母捶捶背、揉揉腰、端杯茶……等等。做我们力所能及的事情，让父母少操心，让他们轻鬆地度过每一天，这就是对父母最好的回报。
