3. make your comment.

You should write 160~200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.


该文可分三段来写。第一段描述图画。第二段分析了该现象产生的原因。第三段谈了解决问题的办法。这种结构安排相当常见。In the picture presented to us, a mobile phone, drowned in piles and piles of garbage messages, is crying for help. It is more than clear that the drawer wishes every one of us to pay more attention to this increasingly serious social problem.
First of all, with the number of mobile phone owners soaring, more and more people, especially merchants, consider sending messages as a quick and convenient way to capture potential customers. In the second place, with the development of modern technology, sending a message to a large group of people has become easy to nonprofessionals with the help of a small machine. Thirdly, the discrepancy between gains and losses has become so great. It is not easy to find the sender as he may be in a faraway place or even in a foreign country. Even if we catch him, the punishment is often negligible as it is difficult for us to prove that serious consequences have been brought out. On the contrary, if one percent of the receivers buy the products or accept the service, the sender will reap great profits. It is more than worrying for us to find that some senders actually have connections with the service providers.
In my belief, the elimination of this annoying problem is certainly difficult but not impossible. To begin with, the service providers should first regulate themselves to create a clean environment and then improve the technology to find out those senders instantly. Moreover, receivers of such messages should join in the effort by reporting quickly to the authorities. Third, we should establish related laws and regulations as soon as possible-once such senders are caught, we should punish them as seriously as possible. Only in this way can we solve this problem and protect the rights of common users.

第一段首句描述图画,第二句是个过渡句。前面的描述如果只有一句话,这里使用过渡句的概率就较高。同时如果这里没有过渡句,第二句开始的统领句就不可缺少。

第二段分三点来讲垃圾短信产生的原因。首先短信是捕获潜在客户的快捷办法。其次,大量发送已非难事。第三,得失的差距太大。发送人不易被找到;即使找到发送者,通常处罚也很轻。但是即使只有1%的人购买产品或接受服务,发送信息者都会获得丰厚利润。

第三段的首句是该段的统领句。先讲了运营商的自律。而后讲了收信人应及时举报。最后讲了立法的重要性。最后一句是结语。大作文的写作正处在由社会现象到人生哲理转变的阶段,大家既要熟悉各种社会热点问题,又要有一定的总结、提炼、升华的能力。为了做好这方面的准备,养成写作与思考的好习惯是非常有必要的。可以将所有自己能收集到的题目先简单分为教育问题、社会现象和人生哲理三大类,然后选取一部分进行范文的细读、深度的思考和模仿性写作,另一部分只进行构思和总体安排,后期可直接进行口练。坚持不懈,必有长足进步。
文中的话题是身边常发生的事件,如果进行过相关的思考,即使没有写过,也会在紧张的考试中占尽先机。如果平时养成了思考的习惯,即使没有想过这个问题,也会毫不慌乱,游刃有余。

10Study the following drawing carefully and write an essay in which you should:

1. describe the drawing,
2. interpret its meaning, and
3. make your comment.

You should write 160~200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.


该文可分为三段来写。第一段描述图画。第二段指出该图所揭示的社会现象。第三段是一个高度浓缩的段落,可以将原因分析和解决办法结合起来。In the picture, an old woman in shabby clothes says to her son in the car: "I havent received support payments from you for more than a year." The son responds: "Mom, dont you see that we have just bought a car?" Sitting besides him is his fat wife holding a pet dog.
This phenomenon is not the least uncommon in todays society. Parents devote all their money, time and energy into bringing up their children-they are willing to do everything for their children. But as for the children, many of them take parents love and sacrifice for granted. When they grow up, they will have their own jobs and their own families, and some of them will find all kinds of excuses not to support their old parents.
In my belief, this unfavorable phenomenon signals the failure of both school and family education. When some teachers are concentrating on the performance of children in local, provincial and national examinations, how can students learn practical skills, responsibility and gratitude? Parents should let the children get in touch with the society step by step from a very young age-sending them to study in a different city is a good choice. Independent life will help them know the hardship that parents have been through-in this case they are more likely to make full preparations for the harsh competitions ahead and stand up to lifes challenges upon graduation. Only in the way can their education be meaningful and the above annoying scene be avoided.

第一段对图画进行了描述,其中support payments指"赡养费"。

第二段的首句是统领句,语气很强,说明该现象的普遍性。而后分父母与子女两方面来描述当前的现状。注意第二句中破折号的用法。末句中的support指赡养。"付赡养费"可用pay support,所以该句最后可写作"...not to pay support for their old parents"。

第三段第一句一针见血地指出了该现象的原因是学校和家庭教育的双重失败。而后先说教师,如果他们专注于学生在各种考试中的表现,又怎能教会他们实用的技能、责任感和感恩呢?该句后半部分是反问句,效果很强烈。同时兼有提示正确做法的作用--学校应重点教会学生能力、责任感和感恩。第三句讲父母应让孩子从很小的时候就开始逐步接触社会。第四句讲独立生活能让他们了解父母曾经经历的苦难,这样他们就更可能对未来的激烈竞争做好准备,并在毕业时能勇敢面对人生的挑战。最后一句是倒装句做结语,语气很强:只有这样教育才会有意义,上面的场景才能避免。一幅图画描述的是单一的场景,可是它反映的却是社会现象或人生哲理。所以我们首先应将该现象或哲理进行准确描述,而后对其进行分析。
分析的最高境界是"深入浅出"。分析中包含原因与办法很常见,在这里将两者整合却是一种难度较大的做法。这样做可以避免重复,用简洁的话语表达复杂的含义。
