審題:
這道題包含兩幅對比鮮明的圖畫,指令要求在描述圖畫后闡明含義并給出該現(xiàn)象的原因。我們應(yīng)該這樣來構(gòu)造全文:第一段描述圖畫;第二段發(fā)表自己對圖畫的看法;第三段給出該現(xiàn)象的原因;第四段下結(jié)論,簡要提出解決問題的辦法。經(jīng)過之后,大家就會(huì)知道這是一個(gè)極為重要的模式,請大家用心掌握。
Sample:
As is depicted by the two pictures, a sharp contrast is shaped between the parents and the son. In the left drawing, the parents are working hard in the field, bending over and sweating heavily. Near them is a basket with very simple food in it. However, in the right drawing, their son is squandering the money on luxurious food and chatting on mobile phone.
How pitiful the parents are! They spare no efforts to earn money in order to support their son’s study and life in university. They seem to be willing to do everything that is helpful to their beloved son. But, in return, the son spends the money as he likes without knowing how hard his parents work for it and how he should use it to better prepare himself for future career.
In my opinion, the reasons for this phenomenon come down to one essential point—failure of both family and school education. For one thing, quite a lot of Chinese parents spoil their children. All parents’ love for children is the same, but different is the way of showing it. Many parents hope too much that their children will have a bright future, which, in their eyes, means key universities, hot majors, good salaries and so on. So they try their best to satisfy the children’s demands instead of teaching them to struggle for future with their own hands. For another, centered on exam marks, the school education also fails, to a large extent, to impart moral standards to the children, especially the conception of selfreliance and hard struggle.
In a word, to change the phenomenon described by the above pictures, a reform in our current education system is not only necessary but urgent.
點(diǎn)評:
第一段的重點(diǎn)是在描述時(shí)突出兩幅圖畫之間強(qiáng)烈的反差,所以這里專門加上了第一句話。這一段在用詞上也很考究。第二段強(qiáng)烈地表達(dá)了自己的感想。首句使用了感嘆句。而后先說父母竭盡全力掙錢供孩子讀書,后說孩子不知父母辛苦,不懂得如何正確利用父母的血汗錢。第三段給出了該現(xiàn)象的原因——家庭和學(xué)校教育的失敗,而后分為兩方面來說,結(jié)構(gòu)極為清晰。最后一段只有一句話,擲地有聲——要想改變現(xiàn)狀,只能改革當(dāng)前的教育體系。
心得:
全文一氣呵成,讀來倍感暢快。從描述圖畫,到發(fā)表評論,到給出原因,再到解決辦法,可謂渾然一體。既有全局的,又有細(xì)微處語言的運(yùn)用,該文值得大家細(xì)細(xì)品味。

Study the following picture carefully and write an essay in which you should:
1. describe the picture, and
2. point out the reasons why more and more foreigners like to live in China.
You should write 160~200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.
審題:
《西湖晨景》該題目非常簡潔,在提綱中已給出文章的主題,即越來越多的外國人喜愛在中國生活——在描述圖畫后,給出原因即可。
Sample:
What an attractive scene it is! On such a peaceful and beautiful morning by West Lake, a middleaged foreigner is jogging—he is enjoying the fresh air, cool breeze and charming scenery. From this picture, we can see clearly that the foreigner enjoys life in this Chinese city, Hangzhou.
As a matter of fact, in the past few years, more and more foreigners have chosen to live in China. Some work here, some pursue their study in universities and even some join volunteer activities in China. The reasons why more and more foreigners like to live in China can be listed as follows. To begin with, since China’s reform and openingup in 1978, our country has witnessed great progress in nearly all aspects of the society, especially in economy, which provides a far better environment of working, investing and studying for foreigners. Second, economic globalization has made cultural blending possible and necessary. Foreigners have come to know more and more about Chinese culture and become influenced by it, which has formed the important basis of their living in China. Last but not the least, it is obvious that with every effort we have made in environmental protection, our country has become a place more and more suitable and pleasant to live in.
In my opinion, the arrival of foreigners brings more chances and opportunities of economic development. So why not seize such chances to embrace our bright future?
點(diǎn)評:
第一段描述圖畫。這一段寫得非常精彩,先以感嘆句開頭,而后描述圖畫,最后小結(jié)——這位外國人喜愛在杭州的生活。
第二段前兩句總結(jié)了外國人來我國的現(xiàn)象。第三句是原因類的模板句,而后分三點(diǎn)來說:第一點(diǎn)是說改革開放后我國經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展迅速,給外國人提供了很好的、投資和學(xué)習(xí)環(huán)境;第二點(diǎn)是說經(jīng)濟(jì)全球化促進(jìn)文化融合——外國人對中國文化了解更多,這構(gòu)成了他們在中國生活的重要基礎(chǔ);第三點(diǎn)是說環(huán)境保護(hù)效果顯著,居住條件自然改善了。
最后一段說外國人的到來帶到了更多的經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的機(jī)會(huì),所以為什么不抓住這些機(jī)會(huì)來擁抱我們美好的明天呢?
心得:
要寫出好文章,首先要對文章的基本結(jié)構(gòu)非常熟悉,而后再做出一些變化,這些變化通常就是亮點(diǎn)。比如第一段先使用了一個(gè)感嘆句,立即吸引了讀者的注意力。第三段第二句使用了反問句,效果非常強(qiáng)烈。
