高考英語看圖作文臨門一腳

看圖作文是高考英語書面表達(dá)最常見的命題形式之一，它要求考生根據(jù)一幅或幾幅圖畫所提供的信息，寫一篇短文，敘述一件事，或者闡述圖畫反映的某種社會現(xiàn)象。這種命題形式的優(yōu)點(diǎn)在于，它所提供的漢語提示很少或幾乎沒有，留給考生的發(fā)揮空間大，考生能通過這樣的試題充分發(fā)揮自己的想象、觀察、推理判斷和語言表達(dá)的能力。

一、聚焦2011年江蘇高考試題

下面這輻照片展現(xiàn)了女兒為回家的媽媽拿包的情景。請根據(jù)你對這輻照片的理解用英語寫一篇短文。

你的短文應(yīng)包含以下內(nèi)容：

1．描述照片內(nèi)容，如情景、人物、動作，等等；

2．結(jié)合自身實(shí)際，談?wù)勀愕母邢耄?/p>

3．舉例說明你能為家長減負(fù)做些什么。

注意：

1．可參照圖中文字及下面文章開頭所給提示，作必要的發(fā)揮想象。

2．詞數(shù)150左右。開頭已經(jīng)寫好，不計(jì)入總詞數(shù)。

3．作文中不得提及考生所在學(xué)校和本人姓名。

The burden of students has been a hot topic for years， but the load of parents has received little attention， especially from their own children.

The picture shows us a touching moment when a little girl comes to greet her working mom. Realizing her mom must be very tired after a day’s work， the girl helps to remove the bag from her shoulder. In response， the mom kneels down to show how happy and thankful she feels.

All this reminds me of my mother who has been doing whatever she could to let me have the best. But， totally engaged in my own study， I seldom pay attention to what mother needs and feels， and always think studying well is the only thing I could do in return. Now I know I can do my bit to help with the everyday washing， bedroom cleaning， and at least prepare breakfast myself， so as to share my mother’s daily burden. The picture convinces me it is even more important to be a good daughter than a “good” student.

二、看圖作文高分突破

（一）命題特點(diǎn)和應(yīng)試策略

看圖作文的命題特點(diǎn)是：命題人利用圖畫給考生提供一個特定的寫作情景，要求考生在細(xì)心觀察圖畫和正確理解圖畫的基礎(chǔ)上，確定文章的文體、主題和具體細(xì)節(jié)，然后精心組織語言表達(dá)出來。試題具有如下特征：

1．素材貼近生活。此類書面表達(dá)一般都是中學(xué)生所熟悉的場景，畫面生動形象，具有趣味性，體現(xiàn)高考書面表達(dá)“生活化”的特點(diǎn)。有時候還附帶有英語或漢語說明，考生易獲得直觀信息。

2．文體形式多樣。圖畫式作文有記敘文、說明文和議論文，時態(tài)要以圖畫反映的內(nèi)容而定，介紹人物或敘述某件事的發(fā)展過程，通常用一般過去時；揭示或反映某個社會現(xiàn)象則用一般現(xiàn)在時；人稱一般根據(jù)圖畫的內(nèi)容，用第一人稱或第三人稱。此類作文一般都會給出關(guān)鍵詞、文章的開頭或規(guī)定場景，寫作時要注意圖畫體現(xiàn)的主題及各圖畫之間的聯(lián)系。

看圖作文是英語學(xué)習(xí)和考試中的一大難點(diǎn)。所以，我們一定要掌握一定的寫作步驟，具體來說：

(1)針對此類題型，考生應(yīng)仔細(xì)閱讀圖畫及文字說明，首先應(yīng)確定文章體裁。這類文章一般以記敘文或說明文為主。

(2)確定人稱。如果以日記、回憶錄等形式來寫，一般采用第一人稱；如果是以講故事的形式來寫，則一般采用第三人稱來寫。但不管用哪種人稱，全文一般都必須一致。

(3)確定時態(tài)。根據(jù)圖畫內(nèi)容及所采用的文章體裁，確定文章所要用的時態(tài)。切記全文時態(tài)的一致性。

(4)發(fā)揮聯(lián)想要合理、適度。這類文章的說明一般都要求考生做適度的聯(lián)想和發(fā)揮，以便使上下文能更好地銜接起來。但聯(lián)想和發(fā)揮一定要根據(jù)圖畫做到合情合理，不能過多地胡亂聯(lián)想和發(fā)揮。

(5)虛實(shí)結(jié)合，詳略得當(dāng)。對于圖畫中的內(nèi)容，該詳細(xì)敘述描寫的，就必須要詳細(xì)、具體；可以一筆帶過的就一筆帶過。比如圖畫中所有的時間、數(shù)字或言論須一點(diǎn)不漏地寫清楚，而有些過程或原因則可適當(dāng)簡略。

三、優(yōu)秀習(xí)作練習(xí)與欣賞

1．學(xué)生的任務(wù)不僅僅是在學(xué)習(xí)上取得滿分，請根據(jù)對下面這幅漫畫的理解用英語寫一篇短文，并發(fā)表你的看法。

注意：1．詞數(shù)150左右，開頭已經(jīng)寫好，不計(jì)入總詞數(shù)。

2．參考詞匯：

心理素質(zhì)psychological quality；品德morality

As is vividly shown in the drawing above， a student is trying his best to reach the full score of important subjects including English， maths， physics， and Chinese while neglecting the more important aspects such as psychological quality and moral standards. This drawing mirrors a common social phenomenon， which has aroused our social concern and is in fact thoughtprovoking.

To begin with， academic achievements are not all that a student needs. In order to survive in our society， students must be first of all trained to possess fine psychological quality. Otherwise， we can not bravely face ups and downs in our life， work， and study. What’s more， high moral standards are also a must for every student. Without high moral standards， students will lose the orientation (方向，目標(biāo)) of learning. Most often， even though a student possesses profound academic knowledge， he can not find himself a right place in our society and make contribution to his motherland due to his low moral standards.

Measures must be taken immediately so as to correct the trend of overemphasizing main academic subjects and neglecting psychological quality and moral standards. First of all， we must take a right attitude toward students’ development. What’s more， our government must care more about students’ education to ensure a right and healthy environment of development.

2．在中國西部貧困地區(qū)有許多留守兒童。他們的父母外出打工掙錢養(yǎng)家。以下這幅圖片展現(xiàn)了這群留守兒童的一個生活場景。請根據(jù)你對這幅圖片的理解用英語寫一篇短文。

你的短文應(yīng)包含以下內(nèi)容：1．描述圖片內(nèi)容；2．簡析“留守兒童”這一現(xiàn)象的成因；3．談?wù)勀愕母惺芎驮竿?/p>

參考詞匯：文具stationery；留守兒童leftbehind children

要求：1．詞數(shù)：150詞左右。短文開頭已為你寫好，不計(jì)入總詞數(shù)。

2．文中不得提及考生所在學(xué)校和本人姓名。

As in shown in the picture， several children are crouching to the ground in a circle. They are writing down “Mum and Dad， I am missing you.” Since they live in a lessdeveloped western region in China， they are badly in need of stationery， dictionaries， schoolbags， TV sets and so on to do well in their studies and enjoy everyday life.

The cause of such a phenomenon is that they live in remote and hilly areas with poor transportation and a lowlevel education. To improve their living conditions， their parents rush to big cities to do odd jobs for more money， leaving them at home.

Personally， I show pity for these leftbehind children. I feel that each child should have the right to receive a good education and enjoy a happy life together with their parents. I recommend we do something for them such as donating life necessities or books， raising money and making the public aware of their current conditions.

I’m sure if people care more for them， the future will find them happy and healthy.
