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

　　1. describe the picture;

　　2. give your comment;

　　3. suggest possible solutions.

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

　　審題：

　　這篇文章的結(jié)構(gòu)與我們前面所學(xué)的稍有不同，主要是第二個段落，這個段落不是要求寫原因，而是要給出自己的評論。對于本文來說，就是對算命這一事件給出自己的看法。

　　Sample:

　　In the above picture, a student goes to a fortune teller to ask whether she will succeed or not in the coming College Entrance Examination. It is obvious that the drawer wishes all of us to ponder over this social phenomenon, which is becoming more and more common nowadays.

　　I myself see no point in going to a fortune teller. First, life is always full of accidents and coincidences, and how can the fortune teller know a persons life route exactly? Second, if we knew our fortune and believed it, we would only wait for it to happenwhen life is deprived of challenges and surprises, is it still worth living?

　　To eliminate fortune tellers we have to persuade people not to go to them any longer. To begin with, we should explain why fortune telling is unreliable, and why finding a forture teller is a waste of time and energy. Whats more important, we should help people understand that everyone is the architect of his own futureonly through diligence and persistence can he realize his dreams.

　　The meaning of life lies largely in the process of struggle and endurance. We have to improve our education to help young people fight for their ideals so as to forget fortune telling.

　　點評：

　　該文共分為四段來寫作。第一段分為兩句，第一句對圖畫進行描述可以用直接引語，也可以用間接引語，其中直接引語更為常見。而后一句是承上啟下的過渡句。

　　第二段首句表達了對該現(xiàn)象否定的態(tài)度，而后分為兩個方面來說，各有一句話。第一句話是個并列句，后半部分使用了反問句。第二句話很復(fù)雜，前面是條件狀語從句，使用了虛擬語氣描述了與現(xiàn)實相反的情形，而后創(chuàng)造性地使用了破折號表示遞進，而后是時間狀語從句加上反問句，效果非常強烈當人生失去了挑戰(zhàn)和驚奇，它還值得活嗎?

　　第三段提出了消除這一現(xiàn)象的辦法，分為兩個方面。

　　最后一段下結(jié)論，分兩句話。第一句話說明了一條永恒的真理生命的意義很大程度上在于奮斗和忍耐的過程，第二句話引到本文主題上只有我們提高教育幫助年輕人為自己的理想而奮斗才能使他們忘記算命。

　　心得：

　　我們發(fā)現(xiàn)在范文中句子的復(fù)雜程度較高，包含了較多的并列句和復(fù)合句，即使是簡單句，有的也很復(fù)雜。下面以第三段為例來說明。該段第二句是個并列句，句中有兩個由疑問詞why引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。第三句前半部分的賓語從句中是一句頗具哲理的諺語，后面使用了破折號，之后是個only引導(dǎo)的倒裝句
