The Impact of Air Pollution
The cartoon vividly reveals the phenomenon of air pollution or the decline of air quality. In the cartoon we can see the air pollution is so serious that the earth can't bear it.
What exactly contribute to this phenomenon? Possible reasons can be listed as follows: firstly, vehicle exhaust gases could be one of the most leading causes. With the improvement of economy and people's living standard, urban inhabitants in mounting numbers own their private cars. More automobiles will inevitably generate more exhaust gases. Additionally, household appliances widely used in cities also release a great amount of carbon dioxide gases, which further intensifies air pollution. Last but not least, many factories around the cities emit large quantities of untreated poisonous gases, which should also be responsible for the decline of air quality.
Definitely, air pollution will exert a detrimental impact on many aspects of people's life. For example, many diseases such as cough, skin problem and lung cancer are caused by it. Perhaps it is high time that we should adopt some measures to solve the problem of air pollution.
英语漫画作文写作指导
第一、读图审题
四级漫画作文中的漫画通常反映一个社会现象或生活哲理,要求考生根据自己对漫画的理解来写作。因此,要写好四级漫画作文,审题格外重要。考生在下笔之前要仔细看漫画,弄清漫画的寓意,这是文章切题的保证。此外,在本次四级考试的三道写作题中,Directions部分都给出了写作内容的大致方向,这也为考生把握漫画寓意提供了帮助。下面笔者就来逐一梳理2013年6月四级作文的三幅漫画及其传达的寓意。
第二、谋篇布局
在把握文章的主旨之后,考生就可以构思整篇文章的架构了。四级漫画作文的写作可以分为下面三个段落。
第一段:开门见山,简要描述一下漫画内容,并指出漫画的寓意。描述漫画内容是为了揭示其中的寓意,是手段而不是目的,所以描述要简洁明快,一般来说一句话足矣。需要提醒考生的是,写作的Directions部分虽然给出了大致的写作主题,但是也要求考生对漫画进行简要描述,因此考生切不可抛开漫画内容直接展开议论。
第二段:表达考生对漫画寓意的看法,这是文章的重心所在。比如,就第一道写作题目而言,考生应在第二段阐述阅读文学作品的重要性;就第二道写作题目而言,考生应在第二段论述为什么凡事必须从小事做起;就第三道写作题目而言,考生应在第二段论述掌握基本技能的重要性。
第三段:指出漫画的寓意对大学生的教育意义,或者提出解决问题的建议。考生需要注意的是,结尾段一般并不需要实质性的分析,其主要作用是总结和升华,使文章结构完整。所以结尾段的写作要简明扼要,点到即止。
第三、论证方法
漫画作文的\'第二段要表达考生对漫画寓意的看法,这是文章的核心段落,也是作文字数达到要求的关键。因此,考生在这一段要浓墨重彩,写深、写透。在写这一段时,考生要尽量摆事实、讲道理,避免空泛的议论。针对这一核心段落,笔者在此推荐以下三种展开议论的常用方法,希望对考生有所启发。
1.条分缕析
在写作第二段时,考生可以从2~3个方面对观点展开论述,这种写法可使文章显得层次清楚、条理清晰。例如,本次四级作文第一道题目的第二段需要阐述阅读文学作品的重要性,考生就可以从以下两个方面展开:第一,相对于电子媒体,文学阅读更能培养人的想象力;第二,阅读文学作品能够帮助我们更好地了解社会。请参考下面的范文。
There wasa time when children could relish (欣赏/ 也可以使用appreciate 替换 literature. But childrentoday can enjoy the sounds and action on a TV or computer screen. “So why bother reading?” some ask. The reasonis obvious: It enriches our imagination. When we read apiece of literature, we are living the life of RobinHood or starting an adventure with Tom Sawyer. In addition, literature is the mirror of society,whether it be poetry, drama or fiction. We know thesociety better through literature.
2.举例论证
如果漫画所传达的是抽象的人生哲理,那么考生在论述时最好能举出具体的事例,尽量避免空洞的说教。比如,就本次四级作文第二道题目而言,考生可以在第二段中举出一些成功人士如何从小事做起的例子。笔者下面提供的范文中用到的是哈兰·桑德斯上校从一个小吃店做起,最后缔造出遍布全球的肯德基快餐帝国的例子,用以证明只有从小事做起,才能成就大事。请看下面的范文。
Everything is smallbefore it is big. A good example is KFC. In 1930 Colonel Harland Sanders beganserving food to his service station customers in Corbin, a city in Kentucky. He fried chicken in his own kitchen andperfected his secret recipe there. From the small roadside eatery, he went on to build an empire of fast food.
3.类比论证
如果漫画中的寓意不容易通过具体的事例来证明,那么考生还可以使用类比论证的方法,即通过打比方来论证一个抽象的道理。比如,对于本次四级作文的第三道题目,考生可以在第二段中用学习打篮球的过程来打比方。学习打篮球时,只有先学会了投球、运球、传球这些基本技能,才能进一步学习高难度的技能。以此类推,无论做任何事情,只有掌握了基本的技能,才可能取得更大的成功。此外,考生还可以举出统计数字,用具体的研究结果来证明论点。请看下面的范文。
Simple as they mayseem, basic skills serve as the first link in the chain of success. Thisis analogous to learning to play basketball. If shooting, dribbling and passing are not mastered,learning advanced skills will become difficult, if notimpossible. A growing body of research has also documented that such basicskills as reading, writing and computing are highlycorrelated with success later in life. A 2012 study surveyed 300 CEOs ofFortune 500 companies and found that 87% attributed part of their success tothe basic skills they learned in primary school.

The popularity of smartphones has exerted great influence on the way people communicate, so much so that an increasing number of individuals contend that face-to-face communication is being replaced by texts and images on the mobile phone.
There are more than one angle to consider this phenomenon. On one hand, it is pleasantly acknowledged that smartphones shorten the distance between families and friends. Even people from different sides of the globe can share pictures, feelings and thoughts through various types of apps on the phone, thus building a long-distance connection. On the other hand, as the picture warns us, too much smartphone addiction interferes with people's real-life communication. Statistics show that over 70 percent of face-to-face communication consists of facial expressions and body language, which is why people should stay away from mobile phones when they have the chance to actually talk and communicate with others.
In a word, mobile phones act as an appropriate platform where people can always stay in tough however long the distance is, but a wise man should know when to put down his phone.
8月13日晴
旅行地:张掖
“一眼七彩丹霞,天下群山无色”。丹霞地貌是喜马拉雅造山运动形成的断层和褶皱,主要成分是砾岩和砾石,主要颜色有红褐色、丹褐色,红的似火、粉的似霞,白的似雪,黄的似金,银的似钢。远看气势磅礴,近看包罗万象。移步换景,能看到七彩云霞、大扇贝、众猴拜僧等景象。
8月14日晴
旅行地:嘉峪关
天下第一关,内城小,草木茂盛;外城大,草木稀疏。城内的文昌殿是歇山顶,顶上有青龙,两边雕刻着精美的窗花。当时,为了建明长城,官府让工人们建造时不能多砖,也不能少砖。等长城建完后,还多了一块砖,最后,工人们把它放在了一个石壁的中间,被称为“最后一块砖”,体现了我们的先人高超的建筑技术。
8月15日小雨
旅行地:敦煌鸣沙山
很幸运,在干旱少雨的敦煌,因为我们的到来迎来了今年的第二场雨。伴随着雨点声,我兴奋得来到鸣沙山景区,走进景区,看见一望无垠的沙漠,不远处有一座高耸入云的山,它就是“鸣沙山”。远远地听见悠扬的驼铃声在鸣沙山的朔风之中,回头一看,发现一只只骆驼排成一队,浩浩荡荡从山中经过,骆驼脖子上的铃铛叮当作响。
傍晚下着雨,很冷,妈妈躲在亭子里已经冻成一团,我和爸爸登上了鸣沙山,看到了传奇的月牙泉,体会到“会当凌绝顶,一览众山小”的感觉,我拿着爸爸的手机拍下了照片。下山的.路好走多了,不到五分钟,我们就从山顶狂奔到山底。
8月16日:又见敦煌
旅行地:敦煌莫高窟
发现敦煌的是一个僧人叫乐僔,他看到佛光四射,感觉神灵在召唤,于是开始在此处修行,建造洞窟。敦煌莫高窟体现了佛教、道教等多种思想,人们来到这里看壁画,了解历史、音乐、建筑和服饰,我们的古人很有智慧,真是不可思议。在来莫高窟之前,我听妈妈讲起敦煌的历史,当时我很痛恨那个把经书卖掉的王圆禄,可听完讲解员的解释,原来敦煌壁画被盗是历史的原因,王道长还把卖掉经书的钱用来修缮洞窟。我希望流落在国外的壁画能回归中国。
8月17日:茶卡盐湖雨
青海因为地理原因形成众多湖泊,而我印象最深的还是天空之境—茶卡盐湖。茶卡盐湖广袤无垠,但是并没有看到湖水和天连成一片,也许是我把杭州的台风带到了青海,天空下起了蒙蒙细雨,远远看去一片灰白色。走在路上,发现脚底越来越滑,低头一看,并不是沙子,而是像冰晶状的盐粒。虽然很遗憾,但是看到了雨中茶卡盐湖的另一个样子,也特别有意思呢。
The Role of Mobile Phone in People's Communication
The popularity of smartphones has exerted great influence on the way people communicate, so much so that an increasing number of individuals contend that face-to-face communication is being replaced by texts and images on the mobile phone.
There are more than one angle to consider this phenomenon. On one hand, it is pleasantly acknowledged that smartphones shorten the distance between families and friends. Even people from different sides of the globe can share pictures, feelings and thoughts through various types of apps on the phone, thus building a long-distance connection. On the other hand, as the picture warns us, too much smartphone addiction interferes with people's real-life communication. Statistics show that over 70 percent of face-to-face communication consists of facial expressions and body language, which is why people should stay away from mobile phones when they have the chance to actually talk and communicate with others.
In a word, mobile phones act as an appropriate platform where people can always stay in tough however long the distance is, but a wise man should know when to put down his phone.
Everyone may encounter a scene when he or she wonders what the meaning and purpose of life is. Answers to this question vary from person to person. As for me, I agree with the view that the meaning of life is to discover your gift and the purpose of life is to make the best of it.
On one hand, one's gift could be the source of his inner happiness, providing spiritual impetus and correct orientation. Take the world-renowned Chinese pianist Lang Lang as an example. His gift was noticed before he was 3 years old, which laid the foundation of his glorious life. On the other hand, proper use of talent helps people to realize their value in a positive way, thus making contribution to the society as a whole. For instance, Isaac Newton made a universally amazing discovery by digging into his gift and finding the Newton's law of gravitation.
In conclusion, let's search for our true gift and utilize it to the fullest to achieve a happy and valuable life.
Recently, there is a popular saying: the world is so large that I want to have a look! As more and more people travel around during their holidays, tourists have brought large sum of money to the local people.
However, too many tourists also bring some problems to the local life. The most serious problem is the pollution caused by the uncivilized tourists. It’s reported that there were thousands of tons of rubbish left after the flag-raising ceremony on Oct. 1st. The uncivilized tourists left their rubbish wherever they go, polluting the local environment. Another problem is the traffic jam caused by so many tourists.
Tourist can promote the economic development of the local areas, but the pollution caused by those uncivilized tourists has brought severe problems. The local tourist authority should set up relative laws to protect the environment of the local areas, and every tourist obey the laws and help to make the places of tourist more beautiful!
三年级的暑假,我跟随父母去甘肃青海一带游玩。其中,最让我难忘的,莫过于敦煌的鸣沙山和月牙泉了。
下午三点左右,我们到达了鸣沙山。初见大漠,眼前的一切让我惊呆了:几十座沙丘连绵起伏,它好像被人抚摸了千万遍,不论怎么踩,总是那么柔顺、流畅。它一望无际,似乎连天空都不能与它相较,在太阳照射下愈发金黄。震撼之余,我瞥向沙丘的一条棱线,上面是密密麻麻移动的小黑点。不远处,响起了驼铃的“叮当叮当”声。
此时,正值一天中最热的时候,太阳无情地炙烤着大地,沙子因此发烫了许多,踩上去却还是格外舒服。回头望了望,就在沙漠的边际,有一串长长的骆驼脚印,朝我们伸展开来。在这里滑沙,最适宜不过。一想到这,我的心就痒痒起来,加快脚步向前行进,终于攀上最高点。沿着这条棱线向前走,不知转了多少弯,朝下望去,便是月牙泉,它因阳光的照射而更加灵动了。周围饰了一圈绿树,仿佛是它的项链,将它的轮廓勾勒得格外清晰。早听说,大漠和清泉相融,现在,终于见到了它的庐山真面目,我惊叹不已。
在一处坡度较大的沙丘上,我停住了脚步。没有滑板,没有任何防护措施,就这样措不及防地滑下——就像是滑滑梯一样,但快了许多。风在耳边呼啸,吹动沙子,沙子推动我,使我快速下行。我心中惊出了波澜,早已对其它视而不见。“嗡嗡嗡”我侧耳聆听沙鸣。悄悄睁开眼,风似乎无处不在,悄悄钻到沙子下,拨动着,又像是一条蛇,敏捷地游走……顺着沙子下滑,随着速度加快,风远远地被我落在后面。沙鸣带着风啸,欢快地演绎着进行曲。不知过了多久,风停了,我也随它慢慢停了下来,抬头望空,风轻云淡,仿佛什么也未发生过,但我还是惊魂未定。
夕阳西下,我们也开始往回走。当月亮刚升起时,我们就来到了月牙泉。晚风轻拂过树梢,掀起细沙,又吹起月牙泉的波澜。夜色如水,繁星点点。流动的泉水似夜空一般深谙,路边五光十色的彩灯,便倒映在泉中。晃动的泉水伴着灯光,月光与泉水交相辉映,形成一副动人的画面。
当离开月牙泉,已是华灯初上。丝丝凉意卷着风儿吹来,抚过面颊,钻到心中。“叮当叮当”驼铃又响起,似乎在跟我们告别……
