假冒球星 。小梅是个球迷。小梅如痴如醉地迷上了一个球星。为了得到这位球星的签名，小梅一次又一次执着地给球星写信，一封又一封的信里都装满了一个少女的纯情；还寄去了亲手为球星精心制做的800个幸运星，哪一颗幸运星不代表着一颗纯情少女的心？不知为什么，一切都杳无音信，但小梅并不灰心小丽是小梅的同学，也是最可靠的朋友。开学就都是高中三年级的学生了，这个状态怎么能行？小丽看在眼里急在心上，加上劝说的作用也有限，于是挖空心思地设法搞到那个球星的签名。小丽的姥姥家在沈阳，转到沈阳读书后，还是忘不了帮助那个痴迷的小梅。于是，小丽对自己的二舅说：能不能帮我搞到那个球星的签名？实在搞不到，你就假冒那个球星，给小梅签个名，反正小梅也不认识那个球星签名的笔体。二舅笑了：真是个好主意！干脆假冒球星写封回信吧！于是，诞生了假冒球星的回信：小梅：你好！我由衷地感激你的盛情，同时也愿献上我的忠告。生命像漂洋过海的船，感情像吹动生命之船的风力，理智像掌握生命之船方向的舵手。没有风力，生命之船便不能前行；没有舵手，生命之船就会迷失航向。人的经历阅历越多，理智就增长越快。请记住德斐尔箴言，即传说在3000年前希腊德尔斐神庙阿波罗神殿门前的那一句石刻铭文：认识你自己。这句话曾引起过无数智者的深思，后来被奉为德尔斐箴言。人，特别是高中生，一定要让理智支配感情，而绝不能让感情支配理智。当前，全身心地投入学习，就是你最为重要的大事。祝你高考成功！那落款的签名，自然是假冒的球星。信已经发了出去，生活仍在继续。虽然我们播种了假冒，但是期盼着真善美的丰收。大道理：有时候，善意的谎言是抚慰心灵的良药，能够医治心灵的创伤。
