  审题:

  这道题的出题方式我们已遇到多次了,是“描述图画+阐释含义+作出评论”的模式,这种模式在写作中的灵活程度比较大。

  Sample:

  In the picture, a young man asks an old man, “What can be got without pains in this world?” The old man replies, “There is only one thing: poverty.”

  Looking at the drawing, I think a lot. It tells us that we have to make strenuous efforts whenever we want to be successful in a particular field. How can a person achieve his ultimate goal without long?time practices and continuous attempts?

  A good case in point is mountaineering. Nobody is born a good mountain climber, and one can only become a skilled one after countless injuries. The scenery at the mountaintop is fantastic, but the road to the summit is always rough and full of hardships and dangers. Isn’t scientific research the same? Countless sleepless nights, thousands of failures and even more—all of these are part of a scientist’s life. Only a few of them can make great scientific breakthroughs, and all of these people are the most persevering.

  On the contrary, if a person is determined to live an idle life, and wait for God to put something in his hands, then that thing should and could only be poverty. If a person has neither ideal nor the determination to live better and let others live better, his existence is not meaningful at all.

  这篇文章共分四段:首段是描述图画;次段是总结寓意;第三段是举例说明;第四段是下结论。该文最引人注目之处是第三个段落,整段举了两个例子。我们在多年的考研阅卷中发现,大多数同学的举例是不成功的。举例子要具备两个条件才能成功,一是典型——既要紧扣主题,又要具有代表性,能够震撼人心,切忌不痛不痒;二是精练——用简洁的话语表达深刻的意义,切忌拖泥带水。本文第三段在这点上很值得学习。

  文章第一段非常简洁。第二段的首句是过渡性的句子,次句直接对图画的意义做出总结——无论我们想在哪个领域获得成功,都必须付出艰辛的努力。接着采用了语气非常强烈的反问句——没有长时间的实践和不断的努力,一个人又怎能实现最终的目标?第三段包括了两个例子,一个是登山,一个是科学研究。第四段是结尾段落,首先与第三段是相对的,其次又呼应了文章的首段,非常精妙。该段共有两句话,第一句话说如果一个人下定决心要过闲散的生活,等着上天在他手中放上某样东西,那么这样东西就只能是贫穷。第二句话进一步说,如果一个人既没有理想也没有决心让自己和别人过得更好,那么他的存在就失去了意义。第二句话与第一句采用了同样的句式,语气却更加强烈,给人留下了很深刻的印象。该段第一句话中的should and could be...是一个高级用法,意思是“将会是而且只能是”。

  心得:

  我们重点来看一下举例的段落,即第三段。该段共有六句话。第一句话引出了登山。第二句话是一个经典句子,没有人生来就是一个好的登山者,一个人只有在无数伤痛后才能成长起来——该句的内在逻辑联系非常强。第三句话说山顶的风光绮丽,但通往顶点的路却充满艰辛(句中有平行名词的用法)。第四句话采用反问句巧妙过渡到科学研究上来。第五句先用平行的名词词组,而后在破折号后写道“所有这些都是科学家生活的一部分”相当独特。注意句中part一定不要加冠词。最后一句写道,他们中只有一小部分人能取得重大的科学突破,而这些人又都是最坚忍之人。

  请大家仔细学习这一段落。一是该段的构建方法,看句子与句子是怎样有机结合,层层推进,构成一个理想的段落的。二是学习本段的举例方法。例子是用来说明道理的,如果能说到点子上,说得透彻,就一定能服人。

  《踢皮球》图画题最常见的有两种情况,一是写世间的哲理,一是写常见的社会现象或社会问题,这里是后一种情形。简单的图画,深刻的寓意——这是当前图画题最主要的趋势之一。

  拿到这个题目后,我们认为它和其它的一些题目反映的情况不尽相同——随着市场经济的发展,顾客被生产者和销售商推来搡去的现象已大有改观,所以我们可以这样来安排全文——首段描述图画,次段以自身感受为基础,描述过去的这种情形,第三段写现在已经大为改善的情况,末段下结论。

  Sample:

  The picture describes a match of kicking the ball: the person on the left has just kicked the ball toward the person on the right, who has already been ready to kick the ball back. A close examination will help us find out that this is a match between the producer and the seller—both of them refuse to take on the responsibility whenever the customer reports a problem.

  We can’t forget those days in the past when we went shopping. The shop assistant was so cold and indifferent that we usually had to wait for long. We often had no right of comparing and selecting. Later when we found there was something wrong with the product, the chance of getting it exchanged was slim, not to mention returning it to the shop. The shop always said the producer was to blame, and if we went to the producer directly, the latter would say that it was not common practice for a customer to contact the producer. Even if we finally succeeded in exchanging the product, it always took too much time and wasted too much energy.

  In the present environment of market economy, we are happy to see that the situation in our nation has improved significantly. When a customer is not satisfied with a product, he is entitled to return it to the store and get refunded during a certain period of time. If that time limit has passed, the customer still has the right to get the product exchanged.

  In this era of fast economic development, both the producer and the seller should first cater to the needs of the customer. Anyone who fails to do so will be driven out of the market sooner or later.

  首段先写看到一场足球比赛,而后仔细一看,原来是生产者和销售商在产品质量出现问题时将消费者推来搡去。

  第二段用六句话描述我们曾经有过的痛苦的经历。第一句话是个引子。第二、三句描写购物时不愉快的经历。第四句说发现质量问题后,要换非常麻烦,更用不着说是退了。第五句话生动地再现了销售者和生产商都拒绝负责的情形。末句说即使最后商品得以调换,也花费了大量的时间和精力——话语中充满了无奈。

  第三段说现在的情况已大幅改善。顾客有权在一段时间内退货,如果期限已过,也可以换货。段中be entitled to表示“有权利做某事”,refund表示“退款”。

  末段总结。第一句说在这个经济快速发展的时期,生产商和销售商都应把顾客的需求放在首位。第二句反过来说,任何做不到的人都迟早会被市场淘汰。

  心得:

  首段由远及近的写法非常有效。第二段以时间为线索,描述了过去不愉快的经历。这一段以时间为线索,所以即使句子较多,也丝毫不显得凌乱。第三段说明了现在的情形,与第二段形成鲜明的对比。末段正说加反说的办法很有说服力。

  该图画描写的是一个敏感的社会问题——平价药店受到各方遏制的现象。这篇文章的难度比较高。在描述图画后,可分三段来写:先写药价偏高的现象,再写平价药店的崛起及受到的压制,最后写解决办法。

  Sample:

  We can see from the picture that several people are condemning a person so violently that it seems that some of them even want to beat him hard. The person has crouched down, with virtually no possibility of striking back. After looking at the picture carefully, we realize that the low?price drugstore has evoked anger and even hatred in many drug factories, various dealers, traditional drugstores and hospitals.

  As we all know, the price of drugs in our nation has been too high for quite a long time. After drugs are produced in factories, they go first to the chief dealer, then the subsidiary dealer, and then finally to the hospitals and drugstores. Such a traditional mode of drug circulation drove the total medical expenses higher, putting a heavy burden on urban and rural residents alike.

  The rise of low?price drugstores changes the situation completely. When drugs succeed in flowing to such drugstores immediately after production, the cost of management becomes much lower, thus selling drugs at a much lower and reasonable price also becomes possible. But such operation irritates many parties who feel that their interests have been hurt in the process. Among them are dealers, traditional drugstores, hospitals and even some factories. When all of them combine to oppose the newcomers, the existence of these new drugstores is at risk.

  I believe that the government should endeavor first to foster such drugstores and then to reform the drug circulation and the medical system as a whole. When we give priority to the interests of the common people, the making of a harmonious society will not be difficult.

  点评:

  该文共分四段。第一段还是采用先描写图画表层表现的打斗场面,而后再进一步引出本文的主题——新生的平价药店受到各方打压。

  第二段写了药价过高的现象及其原因。主要原因就是药店流通环节过多,层层加价,给居民带来了巨大的负担。

  第三段先写了平价药店的诞生改变了当前的局面。之后写了它们激怒了利益受损的各方,其中有销售商、传统药店、医院和一些药厂。当它们群起攻之时,新的平价药店的生存就受到了威胁。

  第四段写政府应当扶植这些平价药店,并改革药品流通和整个医疗体系。最后进一步说,当我们首先考虑普通大众的利益时,和谐社会的构建就不是难事了。

  心得:

  这篇文章涉及的话题比较难写,我们如果对此问题并不是非常熟悉,就不必深入去写,因为考察的重点是语言,这一点大家切记。

  下面来看一些重点的词和词组。

  首段首句中的condemn意即“声讨”。次句中的crouch表示“蜷缩”。第三句中的evoke表示“激起”。

  第二段中的drug circulation意思是“药品流通”。

  第三段第二句中flow的意思是“流通”,the cost of management表示“管理成本”。第三句中的irritate表示“激怒”。末句的at risk表示“受到威胁”。

  末段首句的endeavor表示“努力”,后接不定式。次句中的give priority to表示“优先考虑”,harmonious society表示“和谐社会”。

  该文的图画画了两个人望楼兴叹,很明显该文谈的是我国当前的房价过高、房地产行业如何良性发展的问题。

  Sample:

  In the picture, two people are talking about a newly built set of apartment buildings. One says, “It is too expensive.” The other goes on to say, “How can we afford it?” It is obvious that the drawer of this picture wants to draw our attention towards our real estate industry.

  Nowadays, our real estate industry has experienced such an unprecedented boom that all of us begin to consider it as too hot in one way or another. The average price has been soaring for quite a few years. In some big cities it seems to be out of control—it has been nearly impossible for the common local citizens to afford a satisfactory apartment in the downtown area. Consequently, how to create a healthier and more reasonable property market has been a problem of great importance.

  Among all the possible measures, I believe the following ones are the most appropriate. In the first place, the legislators should establish a series of policies so as to curb speculation and thus keep the price of houses at a reasonable level. In the second place, the governments at all levels should make better use of the limited land resources by building theme communities in the suburbs. Last but by no means the least, more economically affordable housing should be built so as to relieve the burden of common citizens.

  Only through the joint efforts of all sides can we realize the healthy development of our housing market. Until that time, our people will surely possess their own houses and enjoy a better and more harmonious life.

  点评:

  该文分为四段来写。第一段先描写两个人的对话。之后末句引到主题上,即我国的房地产行业。

  第二段先写当前房地产过热,而后说价格猛涨。在某些大城市里房价似乎失控——人们无力购房。末句写创造健康理性的房地产市场成为了重要问题。

  第三段分三点来写应采取的措施。

  最后一段做结,第一句承上段说只有各方通力合作才能实现房地产市场的健康发展。第二句说到那个时候,人们将能拥有自己的房屋并享受更好更和谐的生活。这一句是呼应第一段,非常重要。

  心得:

  文中real estate industry是“房地产行业”,而property market和housing market指的是房地产市场。

  首段末句是引出主题的句子,请大家用心识记。

  第二段首句是结果状语从句的用法。第三句有破折号的用法。第四句中有平行的形容词比较级的用法,相当精彩。

  第三段首句是模板句。第二句中的curb speculation表示“遏制投机”。第三句中的theme communities表示“主题社区”。第四句中的economically affordable housing表示“经济适用房”。

  末段首句是倒装句,语气强烈。第二句有两处平行结构,先有平行的动宾结构,后有形容词比较级的平行,非常引人注目,特别是后面一对,一个是以er结尾,一个是加more,显得错落有致。

  审题:

  这道题目比较特殊——图画上没有对话,只有一个忘情弹奏的人,下面有一句极富哲理的话。而提纲中的第二点和第三点分别是阐释含义和作出评论,而不是具体的指令,这样写来难度更大,自由度也更大。

  Sample:

  As can be seen from the picture, a person is playing the piano—he is so much immersed in the beautiful music that he seems to forget completely what is going on around him. The Chinese characters below the picture say: Writing is like playing the piano—first you must learn to play by the rules, then you must forget the rules and play from your heart. What significant and thought?provoking words they are!

  To me, writing is a life?long endeavor: it is often hard and frustrating at the beginning, but it often becomes enjoyable and fruitful as time goes by. First, you have to learn the fundamental knowledge and acquire the simple skills, just as you must know the keys on a piano before you can really produce a whole piece of music. Afterwards, I believe there should a prolonged period of practice, largely characterized by recitation, analysis and imitation. This is the period when we fully understand and deeply appreciate the beauty and excellence of masterpieces. This is also the period when we apply the particular skills of manipulating words, fabricating sentences and creating paragraphs by imitating great writers directly. Finally, when all of this is done, one day we will suddenly forget all those rules and regulations—like a bird flying freely in the sky, we begin to take on our own styles. We can eventually express our ideas, feelings and emotions smoothly—like beautiful notes, words spring out from our hearts one after another, until they merge into a stream or even a river. At that time, we can be sure to say that we begin to understand what writing is.

  点评:

  这篇文章写成了两段而不是三段,是非常特殊的。如果提纲中的第二点和第三点分别是给出原因和解决办法,就不能这么写。

  第一段分别描述了忘情弹奏的人和图下面的一句话,而后末句用了一个感叹句。

  第二段是关键段落。首先是总结性的话语。而后以时间为线索分三个阶段来写。第一个阶段只有一句话,用了类比法:你得先学会写作的基础知识和简单技能,就象认识钢琴上的键一样。第二个阶段有三句话,先说这个阶段是以背诵、分析和模仿为特征的一般较长的练习时期。而后两句话作进一步说明,这两句话是平行的:这是我们能够完全理解和欣赏经典杰作之美的时期,也是我们通过直接模仿大作家来应用具体的词、句、段的技能的时期。第三个阶段共有三句话。首先说当所有这些都完成之后,我们有一天会突然发现自己忘记了所有的规则——就象一只自由飞翔的鸟儿,我们开始有了自己的风格。而后说我们终于能够自由地表达思想和情感——就象美妙的乐章一样,词从我们的心中喷涌而出,直到汇成小溪或河流。最后一句说,直到那时,我们知道我们开始理解写作了。最后这句结语举重若轻,效果却很强烈,就象米开朗基罗弥留之际说的自己开始懂得一点点绘画了一样,看似平淡,却非常具有震撼力。

  心得:

  一般说来,哲理性的文章是相当有难度的。本文是一篇以类比来表达深刻道理的文章,这就需要大家先弄清一对事物之间的类比关系,体会其中的妙处,再一步步地深入细致地进行描述,这是不容易的。请大家仔细研读范文,必能在这方面有所收获。

  在行文中,不断地体现开始的这种类比关系,能使主题进一步加强。这在第二段的第一个和第三个时期均有明显的体现。

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

  1. describe the picture,

  2. list the advantages and disadvantages of urbanization;

  3. draw your conclusion.

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

  审题:

  由于提纲清晰,这篇文章的结构易于把握:先描述图画,之后分两段来说城市化的利与弊,最后下结论。

  Sample:

  In the picture, we see a newly emerging community: there are supermarkets, schools, banks and hospitals. A resident tells us, “Eight years ago it was still the countryside.” The history of reform and opening?up is the history of rapid economic development; it is also the history of large?scale urbanization of our nation.

  I firmly believe that the advantages of urbanization are many. First, when more and more people flood into cities, the city is often becoming bigger and bigger and many people move out of the downtown area and into the suburbs. This trend of urban construction is beneficial to future city development as a whole. Second, it provides more development opportunities for big cities. With more and more people coming to the city, urban development is experiencing a new round of leaping forward.

  Urbanization may also bring a series of unfavorable consequences. First, the farmland in the country is shrinking. Second, sometimes, the rural land, rivers and air are polluted. When more and more new factories are set up, the surrounding environment is likely to decay. In my mind, it is not necessarily the result. Finally, the young people who still practice farming are becoming fewer and fewer. Some of them go to big cities to pursue a better life. Some of them stay at home, but begin to do business or work in local factories.

  All in all, urbanization brings more benefits than problems. The present society is experiencing great changes—what we should be sure is that we strike a balance between economical development and environmental protection.

  点评:

  在提纲中出现关键词,是少见的,我们一定要抓住这里的重要信息。这里的urbanization即是文章讨论的主题。

  文章共分四段。首段在描述图画后做了小结,巧妙引入本文主题——城市化。第二段与第三段分别谈论城市化的利和弊。第二段列举了城市化的两个优点。第三段写了城市化的三个缺点。第四段下结论——城市化的利大于弊。

  心得:

  该文结构比较简单,解决了结构问题后,我们就应该在语言上面多下功夫。

  首段末句使用平行结构与分号引出本文主题——城市化,非常引人注目。次段第一点中的move out of the downtown area and into the suburbs这一词组是同一动词接不同地点状语的情形。第二点中的With more and more people coming to the city是介词引导的复合结构。第三段第一点中的shrink表示缩减,用在这里很妥当。第二点中的decay表示“变坏”。第三点中的pursue表示“追求”。末段的第二句中有破折号的用法。

  审题:

  这是一道图表题。在考研的大作文中,近年来出现几率最大的是图画题,而图表题出现的几率就要小一些。与图画题相似,图表题的首段总是要描述图表。按照这篇文章的提纲,第二段应写成描写原因的段落。第三点提纲是给出评论,对于社会问题类的情形,一般写作解决问题的办法。最后可有一段做结。

  Sample:

  As can be seen from the table, the number of registered unemployed persons in urban areas of our nation has increased from 5.75 million in 1999 to 7.7 million in 2002. Accordingly, the registered unemployment rate in urban areas has jumped from 3.1 percent to 4 percent during the same period.

  In my mind, the reasons why the unemployment rate of our nation has been on the rise are as follows. First of all, under market economy, private factories and foreign companies take the lead in improving efficiency and lowering the cost—in the due process, cutting the number of employees is always a choice. Furthermore, state?owned enterprises also have been undergoing fundamental changes. The traditional mode of high employment, low salary has largely been reformed to keep pace with the economic take?off. In such a transformation period, some of them fail to meet the needs of the market, and finally go bankrupt, leaving many more people jobless.

  To successfully cope with the present problem, several measures should be taken. On the one hand, the government should create more job opportunities by gradually optimizing the industrial structure. On the other hand, the employees should seize every chance to improve personal skills. With higher expertise, they are able to stand up to the challenges of a new job.

  Such problems are largely the natural result of the rapid economic development initiated by the reform and opening?up policy. When all of us have the courage to face the challenge and the determination to adapt to the change, a sound solution will not be far away.

  点评:

  本文分为四段。第一段描述图表非常简洁,将头尾趋势描述了出来,每个变量的数据超过三个,所以不必一一描述。

  第二段是描述原因的段落,首句是模板句。第一点中的take the lead in improving efficiency and lowering the cost表示“率先提高效率、降低成本”。第二点分三句话,第一句中的state?owned enterprises表示“国有企业”,undergo fundamental changes表示“经历了根本的变化”。第二句中的the traditional mode of high employment, low salary表示“高就业率、低工资的传统模式”,the economic take?off表示“经济腾飞”。第三句中的go bankrupt表示“破产”。

  心得:

  图表题出现得较少,变化也比图画题少一些。我们应首先熟悉图表中对于数据变化的描述,而后对全文段落的安排做到心中有数。

  每万人口医生数(人) 15.2 16.1 14.7

  人均卫生总费用支出(元) 76.7 186.4 442.5

  审题:

  审题包括两个部分,一个是读图画或图表,一个是看提纲。成功的审题就是将两者有机地结合起来,确定文章的最终布局。这道题还是属于图表题中的表格题,比较特殊。表格中共有三个变量,应该看出来有一个变量,即人均卫生总费用支出是大幅增长的,而另两个变量,即每万人口医院床位数和每万人口医生数,是基本未变的。第一段的工作就是描述这两个趋势。第二段中阐释这一趋势,就是要重点突出这一对比。第三段做出评论,对于一种不能令人满意的现状甚至令人担忧的社会问题,大多数时候最好的选择就是写改进或解决问题的办法了。

  Sample:

  From the table we can see clearly that total medical expenses per capita rose from 76.5 yuan in 1989 to 186.4 yuan in 1997 and then to 442.5 yuan in 2002. In the same period, the number of hospital beds every 10,000 people and the number of doctors every 10,000 people stayed at almost the same level.

  This table illustrates clearly the discrepancy between the soaring medical expenses and the unsatisfactory hospital facilities. On the one hand, the money spent on medical care has climbed sharply in the past decade. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the medical expense has soared to 7.3 percent of the total expenses of urban residents, and 6.0 of that of rural residents in 2003. On the other hand, the limited scale of hospitals cannot meet the needs of our people. It is true that we have more advanced medical instruments, but the numbers of beds and doctors have changed little over the last decade. We all know that timely medical operation is extremely important in many cases, but how can we ensure it without finding a bed first?

  To improve the present situation we have a long way to go. In the first place, we have to standardize medical practices, regulate the drug circulation and perfect the medical care system to bring down the medical expenses. In the second place, we should build more first?class hospitals, expand the scale of present hospitals and turn out more medical talents. If all of these can be accomplished our people will surely receive better medical care and live a happier life.

  点评:

  本文共分三段。第一段两句话,第一句话以常见的句型From the table we can see clearly that开始,描写了人均卫生总费用支出逐年攀升的事实。而第二句以In the same period强势开头,描述了其它两个变量基本不变(stay at almost the same level)的情形,概括性很强。

  第二段首句对上面的数字变化进行总结,突出了discrepancy(差异)一词,一方面是高涨(soar)的医疗费用,另一方面是不能令人满意的医院设施,而后分两方面来说。第一方面分两句话,先说医疗费用剧烈攀升。而后举出国家统计局的数字,是医疗费用占城市和农村居民支出的百分比,很有说服力。如果我们没有确凿的数据,就不要这样写,切忌胡编乱造。另一方面的描述共分三句话,先说医院有限的规模无法满足人民的需求。第二句相当于although引导的让步状语从句,但是语气更强一些——我们虽然医疗器械有所改进,但床位数和医生数无甚改观。最后一句话说我们都知道及时的手术很重要,可如果连床位都没有怎能保证手术呢?

  第三段写改进的办法。首句是总括句,说我们任重道远,而后分两方面来说。第一方面是说采取措施(规范医疗操作、调控药品流通和优化医疗保健体系)来降低医疗费用。第二方面是说通过建立更多的一流医院、扩充现有医院的规模和培养更多的医学人才来解决当前的矛盾。最后一句是结语——如果所有这些都能实现,我们的人民一定能接受更好的医疗保健,过上更幸福的生活。

  心得:

  要想写好一篇文章,首先是审题——对图表(图画)和提纲所构成的语境的把握一定要准确。其次是具体到段落,在遣词造句上一定要考究,要多下功夫。平时多积累,多写作是很重要的,因为能够成为考题的潜在主题不超过两百个,很多词、词组与句型出现的几率更要高得多,所以平时的积累和操练至关重要。

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

  审题:

  这篇文章的结构很典型,而选择的写法却很特殊——我们选择兼顾图画所体现的两方面的问题,即自私和违反规则两个方面。如果第一段这样来点明,那么第二段和第三段均应这样展开,使文章形成一个有机的整体。

  Sample:

  In the first picture, two persons are talking loudly in the library as if they were the only persons there. In the second picture, a man is talking happily on the phone in the cinema, while a film is on. From these two pictures, we come across such people who are so selfish as to always think of themselves instead of others on the one hand, and who are so bold as to defy those rules and regulations on the other hand.

  Why do they behave in this way? On the one hand, they are brought up in such a way as to take their own interests into consideration whenever anything arises. This may not be the original purpose of parents and teachers, but this is largely the result of today’s education. Children learn from what adults do, not what they say. Years of teaching in class and family may tell them how to do, but hours of real?life practice may be more influential. On the other hand, they are brought up in such a way as not to take rules and regulations seriously. In their belief, rules and regulations only restrain those silly people, and the violation of them can be both exciting and admirable.

  To solve this problem, all of us have a long way to go. First, teachers and parents should act in such a way to teach young children to always take others into consideration whenever they take action. Second, the authorities should severely punish anyone who violates rules and regulations. To protect the rights of more people, such punishment is more than necessary.

  点评:

  第一段先用两句话描述两幅图画,而后用一句话做总结,用on the one hand和on the other hand将问题的两个方面清晰地表达了出来。

  第二段的首句没有使用传统的表示原因的模板句,如The reasons for this phenomenon are twofold / threefold.而是用了一个设问句,使行文显得生动活泼。之后分两个方面来说明为何他们会自私和不遵守规则。

  第三段首句是典型的办法类的模板句。而后分两方面来说解决问题的办法,与第一段、第二段严格对应。

  这篇文章给我们留下的最大的印象就是前后呼应,三段采用了同样的结构,这样读来自然觉得流畅。

  就句子写作而言,内部突出对比的句子总是给人留下深刻的印象,下面我们就以第二段的第一点为例来说明。这一点分四句话,后三句都属于句内表示对比的情形。第二句话一针见血——这不一定是父母和老师的初衷,但却是今天教育的结果。大家自然要想,为何结果偏离了初衷呢?下面接着说,孩子们学的是大人的做法,而不是说法。这句话简练、深刻。下面一句最为精彩,多年的学校和家庭教育告诉他们如何去做,而数小时的实践可能更加有影响力。这明确地说明,只有投入了真实的生活之中,孩子们才能真正有所体会,才能真正成长。没有真实生活的洗礼,孩子们又怎能了解人生的真理,怎能为他人考虑呢?

  好的句子是深入思索(思想方面)和不断练习(语言方面)相结合的结果,只要我们不懈努力,总有达到“何意百炼钢,化为绕指柔”的那一天。

  这篇文章配的图很简单,而意义却是深刻的。提纲的第二部分和第三部分分别是阐释含义和做出评论,我们可以分成三块来写:提出问题——从两方面分析——下结论。这样文章包含开始描述图画的部分就有了四个部分。

  笔记本电脑可以写作laptop computer, portable computer, notebook computer, notebook PC,在文中应替换使用。

  Sample:

  In the above picture a university student is phoning his mother, “In order to make progress in my study, I want to buy a laptop computer.”

  Is a laptop computer indispensable? Does a laptop computer mean greater possibility of academic excellence? Does a student without a laptop computer have no chance of success? It is obvious that the drawer wants all of us to think deeply before providing the answer. To reach a reasonable conclusion, we should analyze this problem from two perspectives.

  On the one hand, we cannot guarantee that the student will use the portable computer solely for study?related purposes. Most of them have not lived independently, so they do not know how hard it is to make a living. Once they have the computer at hand, those students who lack selfcontrol may be indulged in computer games or online chatting, which will waste their time and affect their health.

  On the other hand, a student without a notebook computer can also be a top student. Sometimes students do need computers to finish assignments, and the computer rooms on campus can often meet that purpose. For those students whose majors call for frequent use of computers, they also can buy the desktop one, which is much cheaper.

  After careful consideration, we should say that the luxurious learning equipment such as a laptop computer is not necessary unless the parents can easily afford it and the student uses it only to facilitate his work and study.

  大家可能会问:出题人是让我们就题论题写笔记本电脑呢,还是推衍开去泛泛而论这样的奢侈类学习用品呢?在这里我们写成两种情形都是可以的,范文中是先就笔记本电脑展开提问和思索,最后做结时用了“诸如笔记本电脑的奢侈型学习用品”的字眼。

  文章共分五段。第一段描述图画,非常简洁。第二段连问了三个问题:笔记本电脑必不可少吗?它一定会推动学业进步吗?没有就学不好吗?第一个问题是核心,包含了后面两个问题。之后的两句话是过渡句,起承上启下的作用。第三段和第四段分别回答上面的后两个问题,均得到了否定的答案。而最后一段下结论直接呼应了第一个问题——说明笔记本电脑不是必需的,只有同时符合两个条件时,笔记本电脑才是有益的。

  心得:

  第二段的连续提问很有震撼力——为了能在考试中运用出丰富多彩的语言表达方式,平时多积累、多练习是很关键的。

  第三段是写有了手提电脑后不一定会学习。下面分两句来写,先写原因,后写结果。由于不知道赚钱的艰辛,所以缺乏自制力的学生很可能沉迷于电脑游戏或网络聊天。

  第四段写没有手提电脑也可以成为优等生。的确需要电脑时,可以去机房。个别确实需要常用电脑的学生,可以购买便宜得多的台式机。

  最后一段非常精彩,说只有两个条件齐备,象手提电脑这样的学习用品才能发挥作用。这两个条件就是家庭承受得起和学生将之用于学习与工作的目的。

  文章中有许多优秀的词组与句型,下面以第三段为例,希望大家用心识记。该段第一句中的guarantee表示“保证”,use...solely for study?related purposes表示“只用于学习相关的目的”,是个很地道的表达方式。第二句比较难以表达,如果这样写就不严谨:They have not earned money, so they do not know how hard it is to make a living.建议改作范文中的写法,或者:Most of them have not lived on their own, so they do not know how hard it is to earn money.

  写作中的推敲琢磨很重要,我们一边学习、模仿别人的文章,磨砺、比较自己的写法,这样就一定能获得进步。第三句使用了once引导的时间状语从句,使得时间接续非常紧密,而后使用at hand表示“得到”,非常精妙,远胜于普通的写法:Once they have bought the computer, ...句中使用定语从句who lack self?control是严谨的写法,因为并不是所有的学生都会沉湎于坏习惯中。后面的be indulged in表示“沉湎于”,句子最后使用了非限制性定语从句,分两个方面说明危害。

  我们拿到题目后,首先要分析图画和提纲所构成的语境。对于全体考生来说,一个图画可能有不止一种含义,不同的写法都是可行的,都可能得高分,如2004年考研作文“温室里的花朵经不起风雨”就既可写孩子教育问题,也可以写入世后的部分中国企业的情况。但是对有些图画来说,有的理解就肯定是错误的,如2005年的考研,写成老年人加强体育锻炼的问题,就是不行的。对于大家来说,一定要加强审题的能力,平时多看多想,考试中就会水到渠成。

  这篇文章分为三段。第一段是描述图画,第二段在引入主题后。

  Sample:

  In the above picture, a mother is seeing her son off at a railway station. It is most likely that the son is traveling by himself for the first time. We are most surprised to notice what the mother says: “My son, all of the people on the train are vicious, so be careful to protect yourself.”

  Although this mother is radical to some extent, this picture reflects a worrying social problem—loss of social trust. Three reasons, in my belief, can account for the current phenomenon. First, when economy develops quickly and resources become more and more limited, social competition will become more and more fierce, and people will concentrate on the protection of personal interests. Second, the present education puts emphasis on knowledge and skills instead of morality and ethics. Last but not the least, sometimes the mass media play a negative role in focusing on the dark side of society, such as murder and robbery.

  It is high time that we called on the efforts from all sides to solve this problem quickly and effectively. In the first place, teachers and parents should try their best to cultivate love, affection and unselfishness in the hearts of adolescents. In the second place, the government, with the help of the mass media, should play a dominant role in the making of a harmonious society. When every one of us participates in this campaign, the restoration of mutual trust will not be far away.

  点评:

  这篇文章首段先描述图画,第二段开头做了一个关键性的工作——确定本文章的主题。这个主题是由图画所决定的,也是根据提纲展开文章的基础。然后分三点来说明该问题的原因。第三段分两点来说明解决问题的办法。

  心得:

  文章没有第四段,这主要是由于第三段的最后一句带有结论性,是个非常成功的句子,亦可以写成:

  When every one of us participates in this campaign, the dream of the restoration of mutual trust will be realized in the near future.

  我们看了图画与提纲之后,对于这种文章的结构已经非常熟悉了。文章分为四段来写,描述图画——说明原因——提出解决办法——下结论。

  Sample:

  In the above picture, a student has got 68 in an examination, but he asks the teacher to give him 80, for he wants to get the title of an excellent student. Looking at the picture, we can’t help thinking of the more and more serious phenomenon of students’ going to the teacher directly for higher grades.

  Schools are places where students learn knowledge and acquire skills, but some students never devote themselves to such an arduous yet enjoyable process. When the examination season arrives, they are busy searching for various methods to get satisfactory grades. Some stay up late to memorize as much knowledge as possible. Some even cheat in examinations in order to win ideal marks. Others go directly to the teachers, begging them to let them pass. In extreme cases, some students tell the teachers directly that they need a certain mark for a certain purpose.

  Such practices deprive national education of fairness and dignity. To prevent them from spreading, teachers should first of all take on their responsibilities. They should reject such students firmly and directly. If the students continue disturbing them with their unreasonable requests, the teachers should report to the school authorities. On this occasion, the school authorities should severely punish these students and those who help them in the efforts.

  If young students are used to achieving personal goals through unjust methods, when can we stop worrying about their future?

  点评:

  文章的第一段,由于一句话就描述了图表,所以第二句话可以对这个现象进行小结。而最后一段是总结性的段落,这一段只有一句话,采用了条件状语从句加反问句的模式,给人留下了非常深刻的印象。此段话还将第一段第二句话的小结做了进一步提炼,总结是“以不正当的方法来达到个人目的”,相当准确。

  原因段落和办法段落均没有采用最常见的分两点或三点来说的方法。第二段写原因,前两句描述一些学生不好好学习,一到考试的时候就找各种各样的方法来得到满意的分数。而后采用排比句分成几类学生来写。最后一句话是聚焦第三类学生,进一步来说明——在某些极端的情况下,有些学生直接告诉老师自己需要多少分,以达到某个目的。

  第三段首句一针见血地点出了这种做法的危害。而后将重点落在教师身上,具体讲教师该怎么做。之后补充写了校方的正确做法。

  心得:

  首先对于图画的小结(总结出寓意或主题)可以放在第一段后面或第二段开头。

  原因段落和办法段落均可以不采用传统的分类法,而采用层层递进的方法来写。

  最后一段使用了由条件状语从句和疑问句构成的经典复合句做结,还要给人留下了深刻的印象。
