  第七节图画作文

  图画作文通常是一幅漫画,要求考生仔细观察、分析图画的内容,根据其所隐含的信息写一篇短文。一般来说,图画反映某种社会现实或现象,或讽刺,或针砭时弊,或呼吁以引起公众的注意。由于考试的内容和信息是以图画方式出现,所以这就对考生的归纳整理信息和分析总结信息的能力提出了较高的要求。因此,在平时的训练中,考生一定要多加注意。下面我们对图画作文的写作技巧加以简单说明:一、图画作文的写作技巧(1)仔细审题。这是任何写作的关键步骤。要求考生认真阅读短文的命题,分析图画的内容以及猜测出题者的意图。(2)确定写作的重点和范围。根据分析的结果编排段落,确定每一段落的写作重点。按照题目要求把与主题相关的信息进行筛选、归纳和分类。(3)拟定提纲,拟定提纲实际上就是按照命题和提示的具体要求确定文章的结构。常见的结构是:陈述事实——分析原因——得出结论或提出建议或做出评论。

  二、实例分析

  Directions:(1) Study the following pictures carefully and writes an essay of about 200 words.(2) Your essay should meet the following requirements:①Describe the picture.②Deduce the purpose of the drawer of the picture.③Give your comments or suggestions.Note: This picture is copied from 21st CENTURY, Dec. 6, 2001 with some change.There are three figures in this picture: the parents and the child. Clearly enough, the child is being taken to the task severely by the angry mother, while the father beside is clapping his hands and seemingly urged her to pour all the complaints upon the poor child. Take a look at the child, who is crying her heart out. And you?ll immediately guess the reason why she is being treated like this. Maybe she has done something wrong, or not finished her homework, or failed a quiz. Sympathizing with the child, I doubt about this kind of way of parent’s nurturing children. Judging from the captions(说明文字)in the picture, we can see what happens between parents and children is actually a reflection of widening generation gap.The generation gap is not a new topic, which has been echoing on every continent for ages. Nowadays, many parents complain that their children are increasingly disobedient and rebellious, whereas children think their parents never understand them, forcing them to do what they don?t want, and thus hold the least respect for their elders. So what on earth is it that makes the misunderstanding happen?To my mind, there are three reasons which I think are worth mentioning. First of all, parents are the very persons responsible for this widening generation gap. Parents tend to regulate their kids by copying standards and criteria, which they themselves were required of when they were the same age. They are always ignorant of the fact that things are changing with time passing by. Second, parents always expect too much from their kids. They want to realize their unfulfilled wishes through their children by giving them a lot of additional work to do. Thus many children and teenagers would attend countless interest classes such as piano class, calligraphy class, drawing class, etc, besides the normal schooling. Many of them do so not out of curiosity but because of pressure. The third reason may go to the children. They should give their parents more understanding that parents do everything not for their own sake, but for the sake of the children themselves. If they don?t want to do something, they should tell their parents the reason and try to persuade their parents into agreeing with them instead of keeping silent and acting passively. This will surely cut down on the misunderstanding and promote the mutual understanding, consequently bridging the gap

  All in all, the relationship between parents and children is integrated and interacts. If one is bothered, the other will feel it.
