大家在写GRE作文的时候，有没有发现要证明你的论点，论据部分其实还挺难的！论据一般就是用例子去证明你的论点，以加强你提出的观点作用。
但是，如果用我们自己的例子会没有那么大的可信度。一般来说，名人的例子>他人的例子>自己本身的例子。
所以，平时我们再备考GRE的时候要积累一些名人的事件，在考试的时候才能更得心应手。
那下面H姐就给大家分享一篇素材，是关于Grorge Washington的，大家如果是在GRE写作中需要以下素材的佐证，可以用上哦！
但是，这篇素材相对来说内容比较多，大家可以大概的概括一下再进行使用。
George Washington was the first President of the United States (1789-1797) and
one of the most important leaders in the United States history. His role in gaining
independence for the American colonies and later in unifying them under the
new U.S. federal government cannot be overestimated. Laboring against great
difficulties, he created the Continental Army, which fought and won the
American Revolution (1775-1783), one of what was little more than an armed
mob. After an eight-year struggle, his design for victory brought final defeat to
the British at Yorktown, Virginia, and forced Great Britain to grant independence
to its overseas possession.
As victory won, Washington was the most revered man in the United States. A
lesser person might have used this power to establish a military dictatorship or
to become a king. Washington sternly suppressed al such attempts on his behalf
by his officers and continued to obey the weak and divided Continental Congress.
However, he never ceased to work for the union of the states under a strong
central government. He was a leading influence in persuading the states to
participate in the Constitutional Convention, over which he presided, and he
used his immense prestige to help gain ratification of its product, the
Constitution of the United States.
Although worn out by years of service to his country, Washington reluctantly
accepted the presidency of the United States. Probably no other man could have
successed in welding the states into a lasting union. Washington fully understood
the significance of his presidency.“I walk on untrodden ground,” he said. “There
is scarcely any part of my conduct which may not hereafter be drawn in
precedent.” During eight years in office, Washington laid down the guidelines for
future Presidents. Washington lived only two years after turning over the
presidency to his successor, John Adams. The famous tribute by General Henry
Lee,“first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen,”
accurately reflected the emotions that Washington’s death aroused. Later
generations have crowned this tribute with the simple title“Father of His
Country.”
