Section III Writing

Part A 小作文部分

【题目要求】

51.Directions:

Write a letter to your university library, making suggestions for improving its service.You should write about 100 words on ANSWER SHEET 2.Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter.Use “Li Ming” instead.Do not write the address.(10 points)

【题目类型】

2007年小作文延续了05和06年的考试要求，继续考查事务信函。由于其它应用文模式太过灵活，不便统一命题或评分，书信始终成为各类考试考 官最偏爱的题型。在考查过辞职信和申请信后，本次改换成了信函主题的另一种类型：建议信。建议信的写法往往和大作文的第三段——建议措施段类似，即向某个 特定单位提出业务或服务改进的建议。但给考生一定灵活度，可以自由发挥建议的内容。

【审题构思】

本题要求中设定的收信对象为图书馆，因此明确为事务信函，按照惯例需要文字较正式。题目中暗示信息很少，只有三个线索：图书馆、提建议、提高服务质量。实际上信息越少，限制控制越少，考生灵活发挥的空间就比较大，可以从多方面提出不同的建议，只要合理就能满足要求。

信函仍然可以通过三部分展开，在第一段中，直接点明主题，开门见山说出意图，可以笼统地提出图书馆服务质量不尽人意，有待改善提高。第二段则要 发挥想象力，从2-3个方面点出可以改进的地方。当然，简单的思路可以立即展开，问题可以多种多样，如没有保安、办证繁琐、不提供开水、工作人员态度冷 漠、空调失灵、卫生条件差、取书速度慢、卡片编号混乱等，针对这些问题提出建议即可。当然，也可以稍微具体和深入一点，联想到流通中心缺乏咨询台、学生借 不到最新的外文期刊、某些读者在阅览室吸烟和聊天没有人维持秩序等。当然，大多数考生会围绕着最容易想到的工作人员服务态度差展开论述，考官相对容易感到 审美疲劳，我们不妨找一些具体一些的建议展开。最后一段应当以套用经典句型来结束，由于提出建议的目的是让对方高度重视和解决，不能批评过度或语气太生 硬，我们往往用感谢、希望和期待来结束。

【推荐范文】

Dear sir or madam,(To whom it may concern,)

I am writing this letter for the purpose of making some suggestions for improving the service of our university library.Although our library functions effectively in providing academic materials and enriching our campus life, its service goes far from being desired.In my eyes the following measures need to be taken as soon as possible.Firstly, why not arrange an inquiry desk at the circulation hall? With the help of a professional librarian, students can go through the

procedures more efficiently.In addition, students should have access to the latest issues of foreign magazines.It’s inadequate to provide merely back issues to the students at the periodical room.Lastly, you’d better maintain strict order at the reading room.I frequently found myself disturbed by certain students chatting and smoking there.I sincerely hope that you will take my advice into consideration，and I look forward to your reply at your earliest convenience.Sincerely yours,Li Ming

(157 words)

译文：

尊敬的先生/女士：

我写此信的目的是为了提几个建议，提高我校图书馆的服务质量。尽管我校图书馆在提供学习资料和丰富校园生活方面发挥了有效的功能，但服务却远不尽人意。在我看来，需要尽快采取以下几个措施。

首先，为什么不在借阅大厅安排一个咨询台呢？如果有专业图书管理员的指导，学生们可以更加高效地办理各种手续。此外，学生们应当能够借阅最新外 文期刊。在期刊阅览室中只提供过刊是不够的。最后一点，您们最好严格维持阅览室的秩序，本人就有数次在那里被聊天和吸烟的学生干扰。

我真诚地希望您能仔细考虑我的建议, 并且期望尽快收到您的回信。

李明

【语言分析】

从本次考试的命题来看，考研对信函格式的要求很低，专门提示不用写具体姓名和地址，而信函格式最讲究的就是地址的写法。其实，我们只要把握最基 本的开头和结束语就可以了。由于收信人姓名不详，开头可以参照常用写法：Dear sir or madam, / To whom it may concern，而结束语可以用Sincerely yours / Yours sincerely等等。

范文中构架清晰，框架语言包括开头的“I am writing this letter for the purpose of”, 建议措施段中的 “firstly”, “ in addition”和

“lastly”。信函在项目排序上讲究语言简洁明了，让收信人直接看到要点，因此不用考虑太复杂的词组。结尾的语言“I sincerely hope that you will take my advice into consideration，and I look forward to your reply at your earliest convenience.”属于黄金表达，用起来专业自然。此外，本文在另外两个语域中进行尝试，一为图书馆术语，包括 “inquiry desk”, “circulation hall”, “professional librarian”, “latest issues”, “back issues”, “periodical room”, “reading room”；第二个层面是议论文词组，包括 “for the purpose of”, “goes far from being desired”, “ In my eyes”, “take measures”, “go through the procedures”, “ have access to”, “maintain strict order”, “take into consideration”, “look forward to”。句型表达上，“I frequently found myself disturbed by certain students chatting and smoking”一句中同时设置过去分词和现在分词，在语法上增加了难度和特色。

Part B 大作文部分

【题目要求】

52.Directions:

Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing.In your essay, you should

1)describe the drawing briefly,2)explain its intended meaning, and then

3)support your view with an example/examples.You should write neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.(20 points)

【题目类型】

不出所料，2007年大作文继续考查难度颇大的图画作文，通过一个足球赛的关键场面来说明自信的重要性。考前我在网站上发表的一篇“考研写作命 题的五大浅规则”中，论述了“和谐社会”命题公式中的三个层次，其中第一个层次是个人和谐发展，推荐的五个参考题目中第一个就是“自信的重要性”，那么

这 次的考题不幸被我推理言中了。只不过没想到命题专家居然在05和06年后第三次利用了跟足球有关的画面，前两年考过了养老和偶像崇拜，这次通过球赛来说明 自信的重要。

【审题构思】

命题中提供的信息比往年有所减少，比如题目(title)的缺失，对题目说明的文字也没有提供，而图画下面的说明语也没有。除了一个简单提纲框架就剩下图画了，因此考生的现场推理能力和对命题惯性思路的把握能力非常重要。图画作文往往有两种表现形式，讽刺漫画需要给出解决措施和建议，而歌颂性漫画需要表现一个道理，让考生推理并举例论证。这次命题似乎在把两种模 式相融合。漫画中表现出球员缺乏自信的问题，反面说明了树立自信在生存和竞争中的重要性。那么就不需要提出建议了，直接举例说明自信极为重要就可以。根据提纲要点，作文可分为三段。首段仍然是描述图画信息，先说明是场足球赛，之后进入射门球员和守门员的细节描述。射门球员在关键时刻把对手想 象得过于高大，以至于自己很难把球射中；而守门员把仔细想象得太渺小，球门到处都是漏洞，似乎自己守门成功无望。显然，两个人都因紧张而失去了自信。第二 段可以从足球赛引申到我们的生活，生活节奏加快、竞争加剧、考试残酷而就业艰难，种种挑战都需要我们树立强大的自信，如果总是高估问题和对手而看轻自己的 实力，我们就会犹豫怀疑而无法成功。按照提纲要求，第三段举一个和多个例子都可以。在自信方面刘翔是中国人都知道的例子，他因自信而百战百胜，创造了世界 记录。考生也能自然想到自己的奋斗，没有自信考研无法成功。也可以举反面的例子，某某如何缺乏自信而导致失败，当然作文的惯例是在结尾走向正面总结，强调 自信确实非常重要。

【推荐范文】

This cartoon humorously presents a scene of a football game with the two rivals facing each other.The striker on one team is preparing to make a decisive shoot while the goal-keeper on the opposite team is posing for defence.However, under overwhelming pressure both of them are losing their confidence.The striker magnifies the goal-keeper in his mind so that chances of shooting in are slim.Likewise, the goal-keeper minimizes his own image as if he couldn’t defend the goal successfully.这幅漫画幽默地呈现了足球赛的一个场面，两个对手正在面对面较量。其中一个队的射门球员正准备做出决定性的射门动作，而对手球队守门员也摆出了 防御的姿势。然而，在巨大的压力之下，两个人的信心都在丧失。射门球员头脑中放大了守门员的形象，以至于射中的可能性几乎不可能。同样，守门员把自己想得 很小，似乎他无法成功地守住球门。

Apparently, the purpose of the picture is to emphasize the importance of self-confidence in our daily life.On account of the quickening pace

of life, competition goes increasingly fierce in all walks of life, imposing tremendous pressure on all individuals.The past few years have witnessed dramatic increase in the difficulty of examinations and

employment.We must maintain powerful self-confidence and optimism in the face of challenges so as to survive and succeed.Suppose we are inclined to overestimate our rivals or problems and neglect our ability, we will become hesitating and doubtful of ourselves, unable to fulfill even a simple task.Therefore, it is necessary to embrace the strong faith that we are indomitable and invincible.图画的目的明显是要强调自信在日常生活中的重要性。由于生活节奏加快，各行各业的竞争变得日益激烈，给所有人都造成了强大的压力。过去几年中，考试和就业的难度都在剧烈增加。我们面对挑战，必须怀有强大的自信和乐观才能生存和成功。假如我们习惯于高估我们的竞争对手和问题，并且忽视我们自己的能 力，我们就会变得犹豫不决、怀疑自己，甚至简单的事情也办不成。因此，我们有必要坚信我们能够百折不挠并且不可战胜。

A case in point is the world famous star hurdler, Liu Xiang.He invariably imagines positively that he can win in every hurdle race, never shrinking in front of other experienced players.That’s why he works wonders again and again.As for me, I am participating in the college admission examination for graduates with thousands of competitors.Having prepared sufficiently for one year, I have powerful self-assurance that I can cruise to my dream university.As the saying goes, our only enemy is ourselves.Only by building strong self-confidence can we demonstrate grace under pressure and turn our dreams into reality.一个恰当的例子是世界著名的跨栏赛跑明星刘翔。他总是积极地想象自己每场比赛都能胜出，面对其他经验丰富的选手时从不退缩，因此他一次又一次地 创造了奇迹。对于我本人来说，我正在和成千上万的竞争者一起参加研究生入学考试。在充分复习了一年以后，我深信我能成功地考上梦想中的学校。正如谚语说 过，我们唯一的敌人是我们自己。只有树立强大的自信，我们才能在压力之下毫无惧色并且把梦想变成现实。

【语言分析】

以上范文在内容、结构、用词和句型方面都有所设计，基本达到了高分作文所追求的效果。

从内容上看，图画描述部分步步深入，语言充实；意义阐释部分把自信的重要性通过正面和反面进行了论证，最后一段提到了刘翔和考研勇士的自信，正面强调了自信在竞争中的巨大作用。

从结构上看，第一段由表面到细节，分别描述两个球员的攻防状态和丧失自信的心理变化，描述部分进行了细节对比和语言均衡分配，达到了充分描述的 目的。第二段采取了起承转合的构造法，即点明寓意——原因现状说明——反面论证——正面总结的结构，使得意义得到透彻的说明，语言饱满。第三段举了两个例 子，各用两三句概括。通过他人和自己的正面体验，表达自信的重要，最后再次总结全文，烘托主题。

从用词上看，首先是描述段表现足球赛的用词，分别提到了对手(rival)、射门球员(striker)、射门(shoot)、守门员(goal-keeper)、对方球队(opposite team)、防守姿态(pose for defence)、球门(goal)、守门(defend the goal)等专门术语和表达。其次，作文中使用的特色表达如放大(magnify)、缩小(minimize)、百折不挠(indomitable)、不 可战胜(invincible)、总是

(invariably)等, 把语言增大了难度。用词在广度上也进行了拓展，在强调“自信”主题时，先后分别使用了“self-confidence”、“optimism”、“embrace strong faith”、“self-assurance”等表达；而巨大的压力和强大的自信，则分别使用了形容词“overwhelming”、“tremendous”、“dramatic”、“strong”、“powerful”；“竞争者”则用 “rivals”和 “competitors”。文中的几个词组各具特色，“slim chances”、“maintain

self-confidence”、“work wonders”、“cruise to”在不同段落中点缀，加强了语言的亮度。

从句型上看，有三类句型别具特色。首先是结构性句型，三段的段首句有效架起了文章构架，再加上“however”、“on account of”、“therefore”、“as for me”等短语，起到了承上启下的作用。第二类是语法难句，包括虚拟句——“as if he couldn’t„”(第一段)和倒装句——“The past few years have witnessed dramatic increase„”(第二段);“Only by building strong self-confidence can we„”(第三段)。第三类是起到画龙点睛作用的谚语和名言，在文章结尾，首先借用了一句家喻户晓的谚语来烘托主题 “As the saying goes, our only enemy is ourselves”，最后提到了著名强者作家海明威的名言——“show grace under pressure”，成功总结了自信带来的巨大作用。

Cultures--National and International

写作要求：

1)describe the picture and interpret its meaning

2)give your comment on the phenomenon

写作提纲：

第一段：详细描述图画信息(外貌、表情、服饰)

第二段：阐释图画文化背景(中国文化走向世界)

第三段：对待两种文化态度

中国传统文化：保存与珍惜

世界不同文化：取其精华，去其糟粕

This picture vividly depicts a lovely American girl dressed in traditional Chinese costume with a sweet smile on her face.She wears ribbons, earrings，necklaces and other accessories that are characteristic of the clothes of a certain Chinese minority group;Undoubtedly, the costume has added oriental glamour to her beautiful features.这幅画生动地描绘了一个可爱的美国女孩穿着传统中国服装，面带微笑。她佩带着发带、耳环、项链和其它的服装配饰，这些配饰具有中国某少数民族服装的特点。毫无疑问，这种服装为她的美貌增添了东方魅力。

What the picture conveys goes far beyond merely a new fashion trend.Instead, it carries cultural implications as well.The fact that people from other nations are attracted to the mysterious Chinese culture indicates that to some extent a culture can be accepted, respected, appreciated and shared internationally.In other words, one nation's distinctive culture can become international through world-wide economic and cultural exchanges.Since the trend of globalization seems irresistible, the increasing cultural exchanges will effectively improve mutual understanding and friendship.这幅画所传达的信息远远不止于时尚新潮流，而是附带着文化方面的潜在含义。来自与其它国家的人正在被神秘的中国文化所吸引，这样一个事实表明某种程度上一种文化可以被接受、尊重、欣赏并在全世界范围内分享。换句话说，一个国家的独特文化可以通过世界范围内的经济文化交流走向世界。由于全球化的趋势不可阻挡，越来越多的文化交流将有效地促进共同的理解与友谊。

In my opinion, national culture, as a priceless spiritual treasure, should be preserved and cherished.Meanwhile there are good reasons to advocate international culture, for those ideas from other cultures, controversial or even absurd at first sight, can provide a different perspective for us to observe the world.However, when we are confronted with a different culture, we should be sensible enough to absorb its essence and resist its dark side.Only in this way can we promote cultural development positively and make our world dimensional, colorful and vigorous.(223WORDS)

在我看来，民族文化，作为一种无价的精神财富，应当被保存与珍惜。同时我们有充分的理由提倡世界文化。这是因为其它文化中的理念，尽管刚一接触显得格格不入甚至荒谬，可以为我们提供一种观察世界的不同视角。然而，当我们面对一种不同文化时，我们应当充满理智地去取其精华、去其糟粕。只有这样我们才能促进文化的健康发展，并且使我们的世界多元化，多姿多彩，充满生机。

内容导读：

Love is a lamp

[1.现象/现状说明段] Love is of utmost importance to us humans.Everybody not only needs love, but also should give others love.As can be seen from the picture, ”love is a lamp which is brighter in darker places." This is indeed true.People in darker places need more light than other people.Maybe even a dim light can give them much hope for a better life.Maybe just a thread of light will call forth their strength and courage to help them step out of their difficulties.[7.举例段] I can think of no better illustration of this idea

阳光家教网 www.xiexiebang.com 英语四级学习资料

than the following example(s).For instance when someone is starving to death, just a little food and water from you may save his(her)life.Again, when a little girl in a poor rural area drops out of school because of poverty, just a small sum of money from you may support her to finish school and change her life.In these case/circumstances you have given love which is like a lamp in a dark place where light is most needed.[8.归纳结论段] To sum up, we should offer our help to all the needed.We expect to get love from others and we also give love to others.So when you see someone in difficulty or in distress and in need of help, don't hesitate to give your love to him(her).I believe that the relationship between people will be harmonious and that our society will be a better place for us to live in.2.空气污染(隐形杀手)

[2.图画/图表描述段] Pollution is becoming more and more serious all over the world.As is shown in the cartoon, two cars are giving off waste gas and three people are trying to avoid breathing in the poisonous gas by masking their face

with their hands.The poisonous gas sent off by factories, domestic appliances and automobiles has made the air unhealthy for people to breathe.[5.意义阐述段] There is no denying that automobiles are indications of civilization, progress and development;nevertheless , automobiles cause the serious problem of air pollution.Scientists have warned that unless effective measures are taken, the problem of pollution will eventually get out of hand.

二、评卷实例：2001年真题 Directions: Among all the worthy feelings of mankind, love is

probably the noblest, but everyone had his/her own

understanding of it.There has been a discussion recently on the issue

in a newspaper.Write an essay to the newspaper to 1)show your understanding of the symbolic meaning

of the picture below, 2)give a specific example, and 3)give your suggestion as to the best way to show

love.1、20分范文：

Among all the worthy feelings of mankind, love is

probably the noblest.It is of the utmost

importance to the human beings.Everybody not only

needs love, but also should give love.As is described in the picture, “love is a lamp which is brighter in darker places.” This is

indeed true.People in darker places need more

light than ordinary people.Maybe even a dim light

can give them much hope for a better life and

progress.Maybe even a dim light can give them

much hope for a better life and progress.Maybe

just a thread of light will call forth their

strength and courage to step out of their

difficulties.For instance when someone is starving to death，just a little food and water from you may save his

life.Or when a little girl in a poor rural area

drops out of school because of poverty, just a

small sum of money from you may support her to

finish her schooling and change her life, you have

given love which is like a lamp in a dark place

where light is most needed.So to sum up, we should offer our help to all who

are in need.We expect to get love from others and

we also give love to others so when you see

someone in difficulty or in distress and in need

of help, don’t hesitate to give your love to him.I believe then the relationship between people will be harmonious and our society will be a

better place for us to live in.2、18分范文

It is generally believed that love is a hot topic

which is most talked about.This is true not only

in China but also in other countries.We live in

different countries, speak different languages，but love is something common to us all.But how to

show love may be different with different people

in different countries.This is something we

should give more thought to.As is shown in the picture, love is like a lamp

which shines brightest in dark places.This tells

us a simple truth: Love is like a lamp.It is most

valuable when it is most needed.For example, once

I saw a foreign lady get lost in the street.She

could not speak Chinese and nobody seemed to be

able to help her.Though my English is not very

good and I am a shy person, I thought she needed

help very much.I asked her what she wanted.She

told me she lost her way, so I showed her the way

to her hotel.It was a small thing but she thanked

me very much because my help was needed very much.My help was like a lamp in dark places.I think we all should be like a lamp in a dark

place, showing our love, giving our help to

others, even to strangers.In this way, we can

make this world a harmonious and peaceful world.三、复习计划：

（一）2003范文：

The set of drawings above vividly depicts the

destiny of a flower in different circumstances.As

is shown in the first cartoon, the flower is

placed in a comfortable greenhouse which shelters

it from the threatening lightening and storm.With

proper temperature, moisture and fertilizer, the

flower is growing in full bloom.On the contrary，when removed from the greenhouse and exposed to

the driving rain, the flower soon fades and withers, with the petals cast about on the

grounds.To begin with, the purpose of the drawings is to

show us that the flower growing in the green house

cannot withstand the test of the storm, yet the

symbolic meanings subtly conveyed should be taken

more seriously.The delicate flower is naturally

associated with young people, to be specific, the

only children in our current society;the

greenhouse epitomizes parents’ doting care and

abundant material supplies that can shield the

children from the storms, or the harsh reality.Once the young people begin to seek independence

and accept challenges from the real world, they

are found too spoiled to be strong enough in the

face of difficulties.Accordingly, it is vital for us to derive positive

implications from these thought-provoking

drawings.On the one hand, we can frequently use

them to enlighten the youth to be more independent

in life.On the other hand, parents should be

sensible enough to give their children more

freedom to deal with troubles and problems.Only by undergoing more challenges and toils in

adversity can young people cultivate strong

personality and ability, and only in this way can

they become winners in this competitive world.（二）2006高分作文： 1、18分作文样例一

The photos vividly depict that nowadays many

people, especially, young fellows are tracing such

fashion.The first one signed the name of Beckham

on his left face, while the second one asked the

hairdresser to copy the hair style of Beckham with

about 300 yuan.Both of them are typical fans of

the well-known British football player－Beckham.This kind of social phenomenon is not entirely a

coincidence.There are reasons accounting for this

fashion.Firstly, with the rapid development of

society, some people feel dull and desperate about

the reality, so they desire to find some famous

people as their idols.In the way, they feel

satisfied with their life and have a goal to

achieve.Secondly, just opposite to the above，others are just fashion tracers.They barely want

to show that they are keeping step with the

fashion.Thirdly, some people even don’t have any special purpose but to do it as others.In their

deep heart, they don’t treat it as fashion but as

fun.Frankly speaking, this social phenomenon is very

dangerous to the whole society.Some young men

spend most of their time decorating themselves as

their idols.As a result, they don’t have enough

time to study or work, then they are always left

behind.Moreover, it is harmful to the

establishment of a harmonious society.To draw a conclusion, we don’t deny that people

should have their idols to admire, but in a

sensible way.They can learn from what they have

achieved and try to behave that way.And also

parents should give proper advice to their

children to form a proper outlook of the world.第五节 一图写作

More and more young people are increasingly

influenced by foreign culture.As can be clearly

seen from the above picture, a young gentleman

puts “Beckham” on his face.Another decently

dressed young gentleman is willing to pay 300 yuan

to have his hair made in his favorite style.It is

clear that the picture implies a common phenomenon

in our society today: more and more people，especially the young, are endlessly chasing

popular things, disregarding the cost that they

must pay.There are at least three good reasons for this

phenomenon.In the first place, the spreading of

foreign culture in our country in recent years may

be the main reason.Secondly, many young people in

our modern society have an open mind.Consequently, they are willing to accept new

things.Last but not least, a lot of people have

become richer and richer.As a result, they can

pay for the expense to do that kind of things.There may be other reasons, but it is generally

believed that the above mentioned reasons are

commonly acceptable.As far as I am concerned, the spreading of foreign

culture in our society is not a bad thing.But as

a popular saying goes, every thing has two sides.This phenomenon is without exception.My

suggestion as to the best way to cope with the

problem is as follows.On the one hand, people

should take a proper attitude toward this

phenomenon.On the other hand, our society is

expected to appeal to the general public to resist

its bad effect.I am sure that my opinion is both

sound and well-grounded.二、英语全攻略：

（一）1998高分作文： 1、14分作文样例一：

The past several years have witnessed a phenomenon

that a variety of promises have been arising from

all walks of life.Regretably, quite a lot of

promises are sheer nonsense, just as the hen in

the given cartoon commits herself to lay eggs

which are round without any angles and corners and have shells, egg whites and yolks.Odds and funny as they sound, such false

promises can be seen and heard everywhere in our

country.Administration departments assure to

perform their tasks effectively and fairly without

taking any bribes;manufacturing units guarantee

to turn out products of good quality;commercial

enterprises swear to provide genuine commodities

and polite and enthusiastic services.Can you find

anything new and substantial other than their

obligations, duties and jobs in these so called

promises? I guess your answer will be negative.As

a matter of fact, their intention to make such

commitments is nothing but to put on civilized

outer clothing to please or deceive the public.I dare say that your society is suffering

corruption and cheat which are causing damage to

society both materially and morally.But the hen

and her like should know that by dishonest words

no one can survive the intense competition under

market economy system.They should remember the

old saying, “Honesty is the best policy”.2、14分作文样例二：

Here is an interesting cartoon: With her head held high, maybe singing, a hen stands

proudly in the center of the picture with a notice

in hand.It says: “Firstly, I promise that the

eggs I lay are absolutely round without any square

corners.Secondly, they all have shells and cores.” It’s so ridiculous that we can’t help

laughing.But after that there must be something

left.Recently, many promises have come up in

many walks of life, especially the service

departments.They promise you that they will

provide you with warm smile service and good

products.AT first you are moved nearly to thank

them.But if you think twice, you may wonder if

those should be their duties.It goes without

saying that factories should produce goods of

quality, department stores should serve customers

politely, buses should arrive on time, and so

forth, because all of these are their

responsibilities.But why should they promise what

are their due jobs? One reason may be that they

want to correct their past mistakes under the

planned economic system.Another is that they

intend to improve their images and please the

customers.In my opinion, trying to be better is

worth welcoming, but making empty and false

promises is unacceptable.If factories, companies，stores and administrations do their jobs wee

rather than talk nonsense, our society will be

more prosperous.（二）2002高分作文： 1、20分作文样例：参见考研写作教材P.53(1)(1)This is a very interesting picture of a

lovely American girl dressed in traditional

Chinese costume with a sweet smile on her face.She wears a pearl necklace, colorful ribbon, ear

rings, and other decorating things that are

characteristic of the clothes of a Chinese

minority nationality.It is obvious that as a

result of our open-door policy, more and more

foreigners visit China and become interested in

our national culture, which is making it go

international.There is no reason to make a fuss about

this phenomenon.With the rapid development of

technology and economy, the world is becoming

smaller and smaller, and international cultural

exchanges have become more and more frequent，which is inevitably improving our mutual

understanding and friendship with other countries.As Chinese citizens, we should respect our

own national culture and learn useful things from

the cultures of different nations, which will

enable us to make great progress in many ways.I

believe a happy and bright future is awaiting us

if we make every effort to promote cultural

development both nationally and internationally.2、18分作文样例：参见考研写作教材P.53(2)(2)Nowadays, “national culture or

international culture” has become a matter of

great concern for the general public in our

society, especially for those who are confronted

with this problem.Now let’s take a look at the

American girl in traditional Chinese costume.She

looks very beautiful with a nice smile on her

face.It seems that the girl is very fond of the

Chinese costume.Obviously, the picture indicates that a

culture of one nation may become international，which is beneficial to all the human beings.Since

China has opened its door widely to the outside

world, many people from different countries want

to visit China.They will accept and love the

Chinese culture as a whole.In addition, Chinese

culture should be well shared with foreign people

who have shown their great interest in it.Meanwhile, the Chinese people are also exposed to

foreign cultures when more foreign people come to

China.In this way people from various nations in

the world will be able to acquire better

understanding of each other and live peacefully in

this world.My opinion about this cultural phenomenon

is that a national culture should become

international.This is because the culture of any

nation is a kind of precious heritage, and belongs

to the whole mankind.（三）2004高分作文： 2、18分作文样例：

As is shown in the picture, on arriving at the

finishing line of a race on the playground, the

lovely young man has to continue his new journey

in no time instead of stopping to take a rest.He

has successfully settled the puzzle of “stopping

or going on” which might have confused many

others.With the increasing pace of modern life, perhaps

no change has characterized the past decase more

dramatically than that of people’s view on their

own life.It is generally agreed upon that people

have to adjust themselves to this new change.On

the one hand, no doubt, people will gain a lot by

setting new goals in their daily life.take the

famous scientist Thomas Edison for example.He had

done very well in his early life, but continued to

pursue something more difficult all through his

life.On the other hand, if one is obsessed with

the success he has achieved, he would lose the

chance to pursue new success.What is more, he may

become the slave of his success.There are many

cases showing that people lose their courage to

better themselves after becoming successful.To sum up, one’s view on his success determines

his future.In my opinion, it is necessary to

carry out a nation-wide campaign publicizing

people who have a burning desire for more and ever

greater achievement when they are already well-

known.So that people in the society will develop

a forward-looking attitude and make their life

worth living and the world more beautiful as well.第六节 图表作文一、一图写作：

（三）2004高分作文： 2、16分作文样例：参见考研写作教材P.65(1)(1)The cartoon depicts a vivid picture in

which an athlete, dripping sweat, is rushing to

the end.Obviously, he wins the match, but this is

not the key message conveyed by the picture.The

most striking feature of the drawing is that the

same line is marked as both “the start” and

“the end”, which indicates that although the

athlete came to the finish, a new race is waiting

for him.The idea conveyed by the cartoon is

apparent: the end is a new start.It is widely

accepted that we should not be satisfied with the

present achievement, for nowadays new challenges

and competition never stop.The market economy and

competitive society drives many people studying

hard for higher academic degrees, some of them

even seeking the opportunities to study abroad.We

should spare no efforts improving ourselves，master high technology and professional skills.The we can make use of it to devote ourselves to

society.Take my father as an example.He was

denied higher education for historical reasons.But by self-study he became a technician in a

factory.Many people thought he was content.But

he never stopped studying.He took courses of law

in his spare time.Later he became a lawyer.“The

finishing point is just a new starting point”, he

said to me.二、钻石句型： 第一段

Wide spread tobacco consumption has led to grave

consequences, yet the tobacco companies are still

claiming that they make a valuable contribution to

the world economy.There is a discussion in the newspaper on the

above two viewpoints.Write an essay to the newspaper 1)Criticizing the view of the tobacco

company and 2)Justifying your stand.In your essay, make full use of the information

provided in the pictures printed below.The majority of people would agree that cigarette

smoking has cause serious problems.Yet the

tobacco corporations insist that they contribute

greatly to the world economy by paying taxes to

the government and employing hundreds of workers.Personally, I assume that cigarette production and

consumption threatens to do more harm than good.To begin with, smoking is responsible for many

fatal diseases such as lung cancer, heart attacks，to name only a few.According to the recent

survey, tobacco consumers account for about 20% of

the world population, and among them, three million people die from smoking-related illnesses

every year.The fact that the output of tobacco

production is reduced from 14.364 billion pounds

in 1994 to 14.2 billion pounds in 1995 also

indicates that people have come to realize the

negative effects of smoking.In addition, tobacco

consumption is extremely wasteful of money.As is

indicated in the pictures, 200 billion US dollars

is due to smoking every year.Obviously, the total

loss of money around the globe substantially

exceeds the gain in industry.In conclusion, as the economic development aims at

making our life better, we cannot sacrifice our

health for short-term financial benefits.If we

have to spend more and ore money providing medical

services for those who suffer from smoking-related

illnesses, the notion of promoting economy via

tobacco production is not justifiable.It is high

time that we fought for the total tobacco ban.2、表格图：

Directions: For this part you are allowed 30

minutes to write a composition on the topic

Statistics in People’s Daily Expenses in Xi’an.You should write at least 120 words and base your

composition on the outline below:

1、Describe the changes indicated in the

table.2、The reasons for the change.3、Make predictions about the future

tendency.1995

1996 1997 1998 1999(%)Food

Clothing Recreation 4 Others

Total 100

`100

What is shown in the table above indicates that

dramatic changes have taken place in the daily

expenses in Xi’an from 1995 to 1999.The expenses

on food have declined by 30% while those on

clothing and recreation have increased

respectively by 9% and 7%.The statistics of rise

and fall seem to exist in isolation but closely

related to each other.There are two factors accounting for these

changes.Development in economy is an essential

one in five years.The increased income resulting

from economic growth plays a vital role in the less expense on food.Hence, a small percentage of

total income is enough to cover food expenses.Another one is the changes in life style.When

food presents no worry to the average, people

begin to focus more of their interest on handsome

appearance and happy leisure time.As a result of

such a shift, spending on clothing and recreation

increases year by year.From the analyses made above, we may come to the

conclusion that people’s living standards in Xi’

an have been constantly improved between 1995 and

1999.With the further growth in economy and more

changes in life style, the tendency indicated in

the table will continue in the better direction.（三）高分作文： 1、1997：

1）14分作文样例一：参见考研写作教材P.27（1）(1)We meet smokers everywhere: in the

streets, on college campuses and in shops.There

are 5.8 billion people in the world, and the

smokers are about 1.1 billion, which makes up 20

percent of the world’s total population.Smoking is very harmful.I think there are two main aspects to the damage.First, smoking

consumes a great deal of money.As is shown in the

pictorial graph, smoking wastes 200 billion

dollars, and it is the main cause of lung cancer.About 3 million people die because of the relevant

diseases derived from smoking every year.Because more and more people are aware of the

great harm of smoking to humans, the amount of

tobacco consumption is on the decrease.Form the

following figures we can clearly see the tendency.The total amount of world tobacco production added

up to 14.364 billion pounds in 1994, but it

dropped to 14.2 billion pounds in 1995.At the

same time, many countries call on people to give

up smoking.So it is certain that the number of

smokers is to decrease.2）14分作文样例一：参见考研写作教材P.28（2）(2)From the above set of pictures, we can see

that there were a total of 14.364 billion pounds

of tobacco produced in 1994 and 14.2 billion

pounds in 1995.Because the amount of tobacco production is falling yearly, it can be predicted

that the tendency of tobacco consumption would

also be falling yearly.There are many reasons.Firstly, smoking wastes money.Every year there

are two hundred billion dollars “burnt” in the

cigarette “fire”, secondly, smoking would hardly

do people any good and it can even cause caner.Every year there are three million people “buried

” in the cigarette “tomb.”

Although tobacco consumption is falling，there are too many people who smoke.The

population in the world is 5.8 billion, but about

twenty percent of the population, that is to say

1.1 billion people smoke.So the situation is

serious and the movement against smoking is still

a difficult task.2、1999：14分作文样例：参见考研写作教材P.34（15-13 分）

From these graphs, we can draw a conclusion that，with the growth of human population, the number of

species has decreased rapidly in America, and some

species have even vanished from our planet.Why does this phenomenon appear? I think

there are several possible reasons for this.First, with a rapid growth of population, more and

more people came to live where some wild species

have been living.Then these species have to move

to other places.Some of them probably cannot

adapt to the new environment and die.Second，although many people look on the wildlife as their

friends, some people may not think so.They catch

a lot of wild animals and sell them in order to

get more money.Third, with the development of the

industry, the natural balance and the ecologic

environment are destroyed.The deforestation has

become more and more serious.So some of the

wildlives become homeless and extinct.In order to protect the wildlife, I have

some suggestions.First, the governments should

make laws to prevent them from being caught and

killed.Second, the governments should educate

people to love the nature and protect it.Third，as for ourselves, we should take practical actions

to protect our living environment.四、课后复习：

恍若漓江之清叠影，洁雾缥缈兮寂寞何方仙？ 问尔嬴家小儿何所有？只识捏泥弄瓦群丘间！

远古庄公遨游红尘间，携与姑射神人意杳闲；

昔时侠士弹节击剑易水寒，子昂驱马怆然涕下于幽燕。况乃太虚幻境居梦阮，青莲傲彼蜀道难！英雄美人今在安？何时梦想成真幻？ 单枪匹马兮红尘巅，吾欲起兮飙浩瀚！

第五篇：新东方2018年高考写作公开课

高考公开课——写作

第一节课：图画文写作——赵晓栋

一、具体写作

（一）描写图画、揭露寓意

1、看图画抓要点：所谓的要点就是指在原文当中必须以英语的形式重现的内

容，通常名词居多，要点包括：

（1）所有的人和物

（2）字母、汉字、符号、数字

（3）旁文注解

2、揭露寓意：就是透过表面看实质，准确点出图画所反映一种什么社会现象，其想表达的深刻意义是什么（即象征寓意）。

（二）结合现实举例说明

形式：主题句+扩展句（+结尾句）

1、举例关键是抓住核心名词

很多考生不会写作文或者说没有东西可写，他们从来不自己反问自己原因究竟出在哪里？我们都知道一个句子最主要的成分是主谓宾，而主语和宾语通常由名词来充当，谓语自然多数是由动词来充当。很多考生把句子不会写归结于自己动词不会写，其实最为重要的一点却被他们所忽略了，那就是名词不会写。我们可以试想一下，我们从小开始学习说话的时候，首先说的是什么呢？肯定是“爸爸、妈妈、爷爷、奶奶、叔叔、阿姨”等一个个名词，而不是“打、跑、玩”等动词。因此，考生要想在写作的过程中有话可说，必须从积累名词开始。所谓的核心名词是指：说话举例过程中必须提到的名词，并且与主题有相关性。

2、从宏观和微观进行发散思维，举例。

宏观（国家）：（1）经济：economy, market, product, development, reform and opening up, science and technology, consumer/customer, company, multinational corporation,（2）文化：culture, history, tradition, figure, virtue, morality, honesty, kindness, courtesy, friendship, friend, trust, understanding, cooperation, harmony, society, precious heritage, ancient civilization,（3）环境：environment, protection, environmental friendliness, pollution, waste, seed vessel, dustbin, river, lake, sea,（4）教育：education, graduation, student, teacher, school, college, university, examination, cheat, grade, system, innovation,（5）医疗：medicine, medical care, insurance, doctor, patient, fee, price, hospital，微观（个人）：即个人观点陈述。

I think/believe/maintain/claim/argue/consider---思想意识：perseverance=willpower, strong will, determination决心；decision, purpose, credit荣誉、信任；deep social message很深的社会意义；high-sounding promise冠冕堂皇的许诺；have a basic responsibility to do something；The majority of people would agree that---

The drawing is a simple tool but reveals a profound meaning.What I can see from this picture is that facing the teacher’s question: it pays to be honest, the student said, “It is not worthy to be honest.” This cartoon intends to illustrate the importance of right values.(50)Such phenomenon as people’s heart infected with undesirable ideas is familiar to us.A case in point is that ignoring the fact that to help the needy is a virtue, countless people tend to turn a blind eye when they see people needing help, for they believe that they are under no obligation to help.Next, some people fail to be responsible for their behaviour, which makes the friendly relations among people rather strained.(74)In my eyes, it is essential for us to maintain this right values.If you treat others fairly, people associating with you will benefit from you, which in turn earn you more sincere friends.Therefore, it is better for us to do this.(43)

Pollution is becoming increasingly serious all over the world.As is shown in the cartoon, two cars are giving off waste gas and three people are trying to avoid breathing in the poisonous gas by making their faces with their hands.The poisonous gas sent off by factories, domestic appliances and automobiles has made the air unhealthy for people to breathe.There is no denying that authorities are indications of civilization, progress and development;nevertheless, automobiles cause the serious problem of air pollution.Scientists have warned that unless effective measures are taken, the problem of pollution will eventually get out of hand.Actually, people are showing a real concern over the problem.For example, there is an increasingly loud voice from the public for firm action against pollution from authorities.Indeed, the earth is our home and we have the duty to take care of it for ourselves and for our descendants.In my opinion, we should work out concrete solutions to the problem of pollution from poisonous gas given off by authorities.For example, the authorities should be equipped with a device which can dispose of waste gas so as to prevent it from pollution air.Only in this way can we really solve the problem of air pollution caused by automobiles.(213)
