普罗米修斯
普罗米修斯是泰坦巨人之一。在宙斯与巨人的战争中，他站在新的奥林波斯山神一边。他用粘土造出了第一个男人。雅典娜赋予了这个男人灵魂和神圣的生命。普罗米修斯还花费了很多时间和精力创造了火，并将之赠予人类。火使埋银人成为万物之灵。在这之后，举行了第一次神与人的联席会议。这个会议将决定烧烤过的动物的哪一部分该分给神，哪一部分该给人类。普罗米修斯切开一头牛，把它分成两部分：他把肉放在皮下，将骨头放在肥肉下。因为他知道自私的宙斯爱吃肥肉。宙斯看穿了他的把戏。普罗米修斯偏袒人类，这使宙斯感到不快。因此，他专横地把火从人类手中夺走。然而，普罗米修斯设法窃走了天火，偷偷地把它带给人类。宙斯对他这种肆无忌惮的违抗行为大发雷霆。他令其他的山神把普罗派迅米修斯用锁链缚在高加索山脉的一块岩石上。一只饥饿的老鹰天天来啄食他的肝脏，而他的肝脏又总是重新长出来。他的痛苦要持续三万年。而他坚定地面对苦难，从来不在宙斯面前丧失勇气。最后，海格立斯使普罗米修斯与宙斯恢复了他们的友谊，找到了金苹果，杀死了老鹰，因而解救了人类的老朋友弯羡宴。

写作注意事项：
1、确保提纲中段落结构的思路与各段主题句的一致性。只有这团手样，才能保证所写段落不偏题，不跑题。
2、要综合考虑各个段落的内容安排，避免段落内容的交叉。
3、用好连接词，注意段落间、句子间的连贯性。要做到所笑哪写文章层次分明，思路清晰，文字连贯，就需要在句与句之间，段塌升嫌与段之间架起一座座桥梁，而连接词起的正是桥梁作用。
4、平时多注重积累一些高级词汇也是很重要的。
