One possible version:

In the picture, we can see a circle of bricks standing next to each other. The first brick on the right is falling down, causing the falling of the next one. In the end, the whole circle will be ruined.

The picture conveys a message that the success of a project depends on each individual step. When each individual step is given full attention, it is quite likely that the whole project will be a success. In the same way, a mistake in one step may lead to a complete failure of the whole project, as is shown in the picture. So each individual step can make the difference between success and failure. We should try our best every step of the way.

One possible version:

As we can see in the picture, a man is hung on a scale, which is balanced by the weight. The man is carrying something while his eyes are staring at the weight, which stands for value.

I think this picture tries to tell us that the man is eager to get more in return for what he has done for the society. Without pay he would probably do nothing. As our country is still developing, we need more people who can make contributions. Only when everyone does his best can our society become better in the shortest possible time.

One possible version:

As is shown in the picture, lines of cars are stuck on the roads, waiting for the traffic lights to turn green. With the help of two big birds, a man, holding a briefcase in his hand, is flying over the cars.

The picture vividly shows the seriousness of the traffic problem, which is a headache nowadays all over the world. Traveling during rush hours is by no means easy. However, the man in the picture thinks out an idea. He gets help from two big birds, which hold a tree branch to carry him to work. This is really a good idea. Though the idea he thinks of doesn't really work in our real life, we can benefit from his creative imaginations. Man has a great power of creativity, with which he has made inventions from wheels to planes.

It's high time we thought of effective ways to solve the problem of traffic and I'm sure it will be solved in the near future.

One possible version

In the picture, two goats are tied to each other with a rope. They both see some grass in opposite directions, and try to pull to get their own food. They are unsuccessful, because the rope is too short to allow them to eat the food at the same time.

The picture is trying to tell us that cooperation is better than conflict. Both of the goats want their food at the same time, which has formed a conflict between them. However, if they decide to cooperate and eat the grass on the left first, and then the grass on the right, they will both be able to get their food. Thus things will turn into a "win-win" situation.

Therefore, remember that sometimes our goal is not that we get something and the other gets nothing, but that all people get what they want. Cooperation will benefit everyone.

09 年海淀一模开放作文

One possible version:

As is shown in the picture, a person/man/woman is walking on the Chinese character "I" with confidence. Although there is a long winding road to go, he/she still persists in his/her own way.

In my opinion, the picture tries to tell us that life is like a journey, during which we may meet with difficulties and challenges. Whatever difficulties we may face, we should hold on to our own dreams. It is we ourselves who influence our success, happiness and future. We are supposed to be self-determined and self-confident. Thus we can achieve our goals.

第二节开放作文

One possible version:

In the picture, a man and a woman are looking at the same thing — a coin. But they have different ideas of the coin. What the man knows is the front side of the coin and the woman knows is the back side of the coin.

From this picture we can know the reason why people have different ideas about the same thing. They are looking at it from different directions. So next time when your friends' ideas are different from yours, don't get angry. Try to think about the things from their standpoints. Maybe you can see another picture.

东城期末第二节开放作文(15 分)

I think"和"is a very good word to choose at the Opening Ceremony of this great gathering, which means "Harmony" in English. First, we need "Harmony" among our Chinese people. We have the same ancestor and belong to one big family. It is our wish to work together to make our country a strong one in the world. Second, we need "Harmony" among world people. If we can have a tolerant heart and show respect for different cultures, beliefs and religions, there will be no wars in the world. Besides, we need "Harmony" among all the living beings. Humans and animals share the same earth, so we need a harmonious environment to live together. I think the word really represents our good feelings in this beautiful summer and it is remarkable to use this word to show our great Chinese culture.

As we can see in the picture, two men are staring at a potted flower with different expressions on their faces. One person is thinking about the sad ending of the flower, while the other is imagining the flower blooming.

In my opinion, the picture is trying to tell us that different people may have different attitudes towards life. Faced with the same situation in our daily life, pessimistic people may feel helpless and complain about it all day long. Optimistic people, however, may look at it positively and take it as a chance to show his abilities and talents.

Therefore, it is our attitude that matters in our life.

通州期末09 年第二节开放作文(满分15 分)

One possible version:

In the picture, a man is pushing a cart to the top of a hill. Inside the cart was some sand with a flag , reading "toughness" planted on it. Judging from his expression, he was working very hard and spared no effort to make it. On the other side, a man is carrying another cart from the top of the hill. Compared with the first cart, they were almost the same except the words on the flag and action. This time, it reads "control" on the flag.

The whole picture was telling us that only if we be toughness can we get to the top, but after getting to the top, we should learn to control. Applied in daily life, that's the way how people succeed and what to do after success. In a word, the way to success is full of difficulties around. No matter how hard it is, we should stick to the end. After this, we should not be too proud, instead, we need to be more modest and keep our mind clear .

东城一模09 年第二节开放作文(15 分) 请根据下面提示,写一篇短文.词数不少于50.

One possible version:

A gardener is cutting the bushes with a pair of big scissors. The bushes under his scissors look neat, tidy and in good order but they can never grow up into their full shape with wide green leaves.

I think these trees can be compared to us young children. Trees will grow up in the future, some tall and some short. Tall trees can provide people with cool shade and short ones can help beautify our environment. Similarly, we can be brought up to play different roles in the society. The world needs variety. Variety is beauty. I hope teenagers can be given more freedom in school. We can do and learn what we really need and are interested in. Only difference can make our world colorful and enjoyable.

请根据下面提示,写一篇短文.词数不少于50.

As we can see in the picture, two men are standing side by side, smiling. They share one characteristic, strong in one arm, while weak in the other. I guess they smile because they find someone who can help them accomplish a task that cannot be completed by either of them alone.

Like the two men in the picture, we all have strengths and weaknesses, and what we can do is limited. However, weaknesses don't necessarily mean failure, but may indicate the possibility of cooperation. By working with others, and making the best use of each other's talents, we can always achieve a better result.

( 12 )

One possible version:

As can be seen in the picture, a tree is broken by the strong wind, while the grass still stays as it is. Weak and small as the grass is, it can stand the strong wind.

It is the same with human beings. Some people look very strong, but they are easily defeated by difficulties. Weak as some people may seem, they are actually strong in mind, just like the grass in the picture. This kind of people can adapt easily to changing situations and achieve more. They are ready to face challenges and never give up in time of difficulty. So a person's inner strength is much more powerful than physical strength.

( 13 )

One possible version:

In the picture, we can see a man with many books inside. While he is proud of the piles of books he has already read, he doesn't realize that his mind is being trapped in a "birdcage".

I think the man in the picture represents those who have acquired much knowledge from books but don't really know how to apply it in practice. Their way of thinking is so inflexible that they can't think creatively. For them, knowledge is just something to show off instead of a means of improving themselves.

I think we should not only read many books but also make full use of the ideas in books in daily life. Only in this way can we give wings to knowledge and liberate our mind.

( 14 )

One possible version:

As we can see from the picture, two people, father and son, are talking to each other. The boy, standing on the ground, is looking up at his father, slightly scared, while his father, seated high on a big Chinese character "fu", meaning "father", is shouting to his son.

Such a situation seems fairly common in our society. When talking to each other, father and son are not in equal positions. Fathers simply tell their sons what to do rather than listen patiently. Therefore, sons will have few chances to share their own ideas or open up to their fathers. They often look up to their fathers with respect, fearing that they might not live up to fathers' expectations.

I hope our parents will listen to us more instead of just giving us orders.

One possible version1:

In the picture, I can see a big spider net, in the center of which there is a boy sitting at the table and playing the computer. The picture makes me lost in thought. With the development of science and technology, computers and internet have been widely used in homes. Therefore, more and more teenagers become addicted to the internet, which traps them tightly like a net. They no longer care about studies. Instead, they devote all their spare time to the internet. Influenced by the violence on it, some even commit crimes. The internet addition has become a serious social problem, worrying parents and school. So I think it's time to educate teenagers about the harms of the internet addition and teenager themselves should learn to control their own behavior.

One possible version2:

In the picture, I can see a big spider net, in the center of which is a boy sitting at 14 the table and playing the computer. I think the picture just wants to show us the advantages of computers development. Just sitting in front of the computer, you can get information from all over the world, you can learn whatever you want, you can connect with whoever you'd like to. It's very convenient. Although there are some disadvantages, I believe computers can help people a lot if we use it in a proper way.

09 宣武二模

One possible version:

We can see in the picture a man with a stain on his face is wiping a mirror. The man might have noticed the stain but his reaction is to clean the mirror. However, by cleaning the mirror, he will never wipe the stain off.

Just like this man in the picture, in our life, when problems occur, some of us often blame the environment first, which surely prevents us from finding a solution. So next time, when we find a "stain" in life, look to ourselves first. We are the ones that need to change.

(17)

09 丰台15

One possible version:

From the picture I can see two images. On the first image a boy is sitting on the chair and thinking longingly of something happy. There is light full of his surroundings. But on the other image this boy is sitting on the same chair and thinking something sad. There is darkness around him.

I think the picture wants to show us that there are all kinds troubles in our life , if we can face up to them in a optimistic way, things will be better and easier and we'll be more hopeful. However, if we always see the bad side of them, we may lose ourselves in the hopeless and even be destroyed by them.

So in my opinion, looking on the bright side of everything can make our life more active and enjoyable. (136 words)

One possible version:

In the picture we can see a family in a car. The mother and the father are trying to drive it in opposite directions with their child sitting between them, looking rather confused.

It reminds me of a common phenomenon in some families. When there are some decisions for the family to make, the parents hold different opinions and turn a deaf ear to each other, not to mention the child's ideas. For example, when it comes to what their child should major in at university, they will have a heated argument regardless of the child's intention.

I think parents should try to improve their communication and take their children's opinions into consideration so as to reach an agreement.

09 年1 月朝阳

From the picture, we can see that the young tree is supported by a stick while growing. However, once there is no support, the young tree is broken off.

As the picture suggests, we teenagers grow up almost in the same way. We children need not only the necessary support and care from our parents and teachers but also the challenge of difficulty, the experience of hardships and the joy of success. As parents and teachers, they don't have to do everything for us, and too much care is not helpful. Just offer us the opportunity to develop our ability and we are sure to grow up well.

2009 年1 月崇文

In the picture, we can see a man trying to get to the final destination directly by a ladder instead of following the long way to it. In our society, many people have got used to their common practices of settling problems, some of which are a waste of time and effort. They are unaware that there are better solutions. They should learn to think out of the box just as the man in the picture. So in my opinion, whatever we do, we should be creative and find out a most effective way.

(21)

08 年海淀

In the picture we can see two kids looking at the sun shining far away behind the mountains, to which a winding path leads. Obviously they are expecting a promising future, but there is a long way to go and they will meet with some difficulties and challenges on their way to their dreams. The key to success is great determination and a strong will. Like the two kids, we are faced with difficulties and challenges every day. It is only when we make up our minds and work heart and soul that we will live our lives to the fullest and reach our goals at last.

08 年西城

As we can see in the picture, a student, Xiao Ming stands at a table staring at a birdcage with a cat in it. He looks puzzled. How can the cat be kept in the birdcage when it should feel free to play inside or outside the house? It is certainly feeling uneasy, unhappy and uncomfortable. Its owner should have thought about its nature --- it loves freedom.

The picture attempts to convey a message that whether children or small animals, they should have their own place suited to their nature. Unnecessary limitation should be removed. Only in this way can they have healthy development both physically and mentally. 20

(2009-2010xwqm) One possible version:

As is shown in the picture, there is a man who is trying to open a door by pushing it very hard. Without doubt, he will fail because the door is supposed to be pulled open. He is getting into a wrong way.

Just like the case in the picture, sometimes when we face some difficulties or meet some challenges, it is in such a hurry that we get down to solving them as we regarded without thinking twice about the right means. As a result, we can’t get them done at all. The refore, once a problem comes, it is more important for us to analyse it first and find out how to solve it. Only in this way can we reach our target

（2010 xcem）One possible version: (15分)

As we can see in the picture, two workers are working very hard building the railroad. When their boss comes, he is shocked to find that their tracks have failed to meet the set of tracks coming from the opposite direction.

Keep your goals i n mind and constantly compare what you are doing with your goals. That’s what I’d like to say to the men. It is easy to get lost in the details of our lives, forgetting about the way we are heading, just like the two workers buried in their present task. If they keep on working like this, they will never achieve their goals.

Make sure you are on the right track towards your goals, and you will see growth each time you make an effort.

(27)

At the first glance of the picture, you can see a face of an ugly old man. But turning the picture upside down, you will surprisingly see a pretty young girl. What can we learn from it ?

What I think of is the attitude that one may have when facing failure. It will be better if we think of something good. If we always think negatively, we won’t be able to see the “pretty girl”, that is, the bright side of our life. Therefore, when we are let down, it is wise to have a positive attitude..

(28)

As we can see from the picture, there is a wooden barrel constructed with a number of boards of different lengths. Some water is leaking out from the edge of a board.

The drawing represents a well-known term, called the wooden barrel effect. The total amount of water is determined by the shortest board rather than the longest one. We can see some practical applications of this effect in our daily life. Teamwork is one of the examples. No matter how well a single capable person performs, without cooperation or help from one another, it is always the least capable member who holds back the progress of the team. So work together and also help the shortest “board”. The team will perform better with contribution from everyone.

(29)

In the picture, a boy is absorbed in fishing, while others are leaving, empty-handed. Finally

his efforts pay off, and he catches a big fish. Actually, there are still more fish in the water. If those who are heading back could stay longer, they would surely get a good catch. So from the children’s different behaviors, we can see that success needs a person’s patience because patience plays an important role in the process of achieving goals. Stick to what we are doing, and the gain we get will be beyond imagination just like the fish left in the pool.

（30）

As can be seen in the picture, the two cups are smiling, regardless of how much water they each have. One cup is almost full while the other is not.

The picture indicated that people should always be optimistic, no matter what they have. Just as in shown, the two cups with different amount of water are both happy. I think that they are both pleased to serve people with all they have. They may represent common people in our life. Whether rich or poor, we should be happy to do something for society. Thus we can learn that giving is the source of happiness.

（31--32）

As can be seen in the picture, there is an old lady. But turn the picture upside down, it turns out to be a young princess. What a fantastic picture! So keep an optimistic mood to everything,and you’ll find something better and wonderful. For example, if you failed in an exam, don’t be so upset. Try to think it from an another direction. This failure will remind you in next exam so that you won’t make the same mistake. So try to be an optimistic person and think things from different views. Then you find that impossible is nothing

(33)

As we can see in the picture, the saleslady on the left is examining the note carefully while the customer on the right is checking the goods on sale. Both of them are wondering whether they are cheated by each other.

Obviously they don’t trust each other, which also reflects some of the common social problems nowadays. Now there are too many people who hold a doubtful attitude towards everything. In my opinion, honesty is the best policy. We should develop a reliable relationship among people. Only when we believe in each other can we build a harmonious society.

(34)

As we can see in the picture, it’s raining very hard. The elderly man is holding his umbrella to protect his beloved pet dog from the rain, while he himself is walking in the rain with his clothes being wet all through..

（1）In our society, the elder man and the dog are just like parents and their children. Many parents spoil their children and meet all the needs of them.

（2）This kind of phenomenon is not quite unusual in our society. Many elderly folks are living in loneliness. Their children are not around them, and so their pet is the only family they have to whom they can show their full attention.

This cartoon attempts to convey the message that everyone, as a member of society, should care more about the elderly. We could make a difference in their lives, for instance, by showing more respect and concern about their mental and spiritual well-being.

( 35)

（2010cwem）One possible version:

In the picture we can see a boy climbing a platform．He is taking great trouble to reach, die top of the stairs, ignoring the comparatively lower stairs beside him．

The picture reminds me of those who dream of achieving great success every day．They are so eager to succeed that they hope to get to their destinations as quickly as possible．They don't realize there are longer but safer ways for them to make it．As a result, they may seem rather close to their goals, but the fact is on the contrary．In my opinion, we should focus on the process of fighting fop success．As long as every step is proper, sooner or later we will gain what we long for．

(36)

In the picture, I can see two men are trying to make a bench. Both of them are working hard, sweating a lot. But obviously they are nailing the legs on different sides.

Seeing the picture, I can’t help thinking how ridiculous it is. They work as a team and both of them do make their efforts. But unfortunately they mind their own business without communicating with each other. Cooperation needs effective communication, without which we’ll do things blindly. So before taking actions, plan things carefully and communicate well with your partners. Otherwise all the efforts will be in vain, just like what the two men do in the picture.

（37）

（2010 xcym）One possible version:

As is shown in the picture, a half-empty bottle is going to stick a label of “full”on its body, feeling proud and confident.

The picture seems to be reflecting a kind of social phenomenon. We might often meet some people who look confident, trying to impress others with their “rich” knowledge. However, just like the bottle in the picture, what they really know is just a little. What they actually have in their head is far from enough. As an old saying goes, empty bottles make the loudest noise.

Therefore, it’s wise to enrich ourselves with knowledge and try to make our head full.

（38）

（2010hdym）One possible version:

In the picture, there is a cup, which is usually presented to the winners in sports competitions. The cup is definitely a symbol of great success. But what makes me puzzled is that a magnifying glass is used to see its light scratch on the cup, which is not at all obvious.

What I see in this picture r eminds me of people who use a magnifying glass to see the faults in others. Those people are usually very demanding and picky. They only see the “scratches” instead of the whole cup. As we all know, everyone has both strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, we should be objective about others’ achievements rather than f ind faults

with them on purpose. Only in this way can harmony be achieved and conflicts be avoided.

（39）

（2010cyem）One possible version:

As can be seen in the picture, a man is given a lot of praise and claps．Obviously he is very satisfied with himself, thinking he is perfect．

I think the picture conveys a message vividly．Even if one receives a lot of praise, he must be clear-headed, or he'll be lost in it．The man in the picture doesn't realize that he still has much to improve, which probably prevents him making more progress．As the saying goes, pride goes before the fall．So I think one shouldn't be too proud in face of success．

（40）

（2010cyym）One possible version:

As can he seen in the picture, there is a small spot on the table while a man is looking at it with a magnifier. Through the magnifier, the spot seems bigger and clearer.

The picture has a reflection in our daily life. The spot is just like a person’s strongpoint or weak point. If we enlarge one’s strongpoint, we may recognize it and can find something worth learning from the person. On the contrary, if his weak point is always focused on, he will feel discouraged, which prevents him from making progress. In my opinion, we should make it clear where it magnifier is used and what can be enlarged.

（41）

（2010hdem）One possible version:

In the picture, a huge elephant is walking leisurely forward and above it is a small bird flying gaily ahead. There is a second bird following them. But to my surprise, instead of accompanying the bird in flight, it tries hard to follow in the tracks of the elephant.

What the picture conveys to us is that with a powerful influence of a big shot like the elephant, some people go their own way like the bird in flight, while others blindl y struggle to copy the big shot and get nowhere, like the bird making every effort to follow in the elephant’s footsteps. Therefore, in the course of pursuing our dreams, we should be aware and make the best of our own strengths rather than stumble behind others embarrassedly ignoring our own strong points.

（42）

（2010ftem）Possible versions:

In the picture we can see two men-a young man and an old man. The young man looks excited with the three big fish in his hand while the old man looks upset and angry carrying only a small fish with him. And the young man is running after the old man trying to explain something to him.

I think the picture conveys a message that everyone has his or her advantages. The old man is rich in life experience, but it doesn’t mean he can do everything best. The young one is lack of life experience, but full of energy and new ideas. He can do something better than the old. In my opinion, we should learn from each other no matter wheth er he (she) is old or young.

（43）

（2010 xcqm）One possible version：

As is shown in the picture, a boy is shouting at his dad, who looks upset and doesn’t know what to do with his son. Their relationship seems difficult.

The picture reminds me of one of the problems that many families with teenagers face. Although it seems that the kid does not respect his dad, it is their communication that has gone wrong. A good relationship between a parent and a child requires much effort to make it strong. Open and frank communications help to ensure parents and their children stay close together.

So why don’t the dad and his son sit together, lace to take, calm down and talk through their problems? This way, I believe they will gradually have a positive relationship and become the father and son the we all really admire.

（44）

（2010dcqm）One possible version：

Looking at the picture, I can see two cactuses growing in a large area of desert. The mother cactus if holding an umbrella to protect the baby cactus from the baking sun. But against her good wish. the baby cactus is bending down and turning weak in the shade of the umbrella.

This makes me think of what happens in our daily life.

Like the mother cactus in the picture, parents are making every effort to create a comfortable

environment for their children. But unfortunately, they have forgotten one important fact. No one can grove up without experiencing pain and difficulties. Too much protection from parents has a side effect on children. Just like the baby cactus in the picture, how can it grow up healthily without sunlight?

So parents, please throw the umbrella away. Let children face whatever may lie ahead of them SO that they will be able to grow naturally.

（45）

（2010sjsym）Possible versions:

From the picture I can see a boy trapped by a heavy stone, on which “Laziness” was said. One of the boy’s hands is holding a balloon, which resembles the “talent”. However, the balloon can’t help him fly up because of the heave stone down below.

The picture really sends a message to us. Even if you are gifted to some degree, you can’t just rely on your talent. Talent does some support to your success, but can’t guarantee unless you pay for that as well. Working hard is the base to make sure you can reach your goal.

So, do you want your dream come true? You should try hard even if you are quite bright.

（46）

（2009-2010cwqm）One possible version :

From the picture, I can see a small snail which has a shadow with an image of a huge ox．I find the sharp comparison very interesting .The words printed on the back of the ox makes me think deeper about fake and unreal advertisements around us．

Advertisements do play an important part in our life, however, many of them are not telling the facts．As a matter of fact , they sometimes just overstate the advantages and hide the disadvantages on purpose, which is a common social phenomenon．

In my opinion, overstatement may be an effective way of marketing their products, nevertheless, the trust between people will gradually disappear．I firmly believe sticking to the facts is fundamental and vital．Please stop presenting consumers fake images any more．

（47）

（2010xwym）One possible version:

In the picture, we can see a man picking apples. But in order to pick the apples, he cuts down the tree.

The picture wants to tell us that whatever we do, we shoul dn’t only focus on what we are doing at present. If we neglect our future, we’ll end up in failure. Just like the man in the picture, although he can get apples this time, he will never get fruits from the tree again.

The picture reminds me of the environmental problems. If we pay no attention to the environment just in order to earn more money now, how can we live a happy life in the dirty surroundings? So try to think about our future when doing things.

（48）

（2009xcgeqm）One possible version:

As we can see in the picture , a polar bear is sitting on a piece of melting ice with an umbrella to escape. The bear ,surrounded by water , sees that his home on an ice field is disappearing . It looks sad and helpless . Not only the bear ,but all the animals and human beings are suffering from global warming which is worsening day by day .

To prevent this situation from getting worse , everyone is responsible to lead a low-carbon life . For instance , we can go to work by bus or bicycle instead of by car . And we should not waste electricity . Recycling is a good way for us to make full use of resources . Such measures must be taken immediately to save the earth ---human beings only home .

（49）

（2010cwem）One possible version：

In the picture we can see a man fishing in a well. According to his book knowledge, fish are always living in the water，so he chooses a well to fish in.

Fish do live in the water，but do they live in the well? I think the picture wants to tell us when we learn something，we should have a thorough study of it．Otherwise we'll make some silly mistakes．Just like the man in the picture，however he tries，he'll never get fish in the well.

So when we learn something we should try to have a thorough understanding of it.

（50）

（2010cwym）One possible version:

From the picture we can see that a bunch of sticks stay together and look happy, while one stick is alone and looks upset．

I think the picture conveys the message that working together can bring people happiness．Everyone dreams of living a happy life forever．However, it is impossible to enjoy life by oneself like the lonely stick in the picture．If he or she works together with his or her teammates or peers, he or she will certainly be impressed and cheer up．In my opinion, we have to realize the importance of teamwork and try to involve ourselves in the activities as much as possible.

I think the artist wants to show changes in the city. The man stands for the old generation in China: he is wearing old-fashioned clothes that date back to the beginning of the twentieth century; he is looking at the laptop in great curiosity, unable to figure out what it is. The girl, on the other hand, is totally different; she has long hair and wears a fashionable short skirt. While the man doesn’t know anything about the laptop, she plays with it skillfully. The striking differences between the two show rapid changes in people’s life in China.

In this picture, a mother bird stays in her nest in a big tree, watching her babies flying away. I think the mother bird must be very proud of her children, who are able to find their own food now. But she may also feel a sense of loss since they no longer need her day-to-day care as they used to. This picture shows very well the mixed feelings of parents when watching their children grow up. For my parents, things will be much easier. We will set up a family blog to post our photos, journals, and even audios. Once I leave for college, we can conveniently share our experiences and support each other no matter where we are. Their “nest” will never be empty!

From the picture I can see a pair of proud compasses and a hard-working pencil. The compasses are big, drawing a circle with ease, while the pencil is small, drawing a line with great effort. I think the compasses are reasonable to be proud because no one else can do the job better. At the same time, however, he should realize the pencil has his own advantages. The pencil can do other shapes better than the compasses, even pictures. So in my opinion, while we are confident in ourselves, we should recognize strengths in others and show due respect for them.

One possible version:

What an interesting picture! A Western young man, sitting at a table, is ready to eat a bowl of noodles. He is holding two forks the same way as we Chinese hold chopsticks. He is trying so hard to pick up the noodles that he is sweating a lot.

At first glance, I think it’s a bit funny, for we Chinese take for granted that chopsticks are the tools for eating noodles. The man in the picture is trying to copy us. Obviously he is doing it the hard way. Maybe using one fork will do a better job, In my opinion, we don’t need to copy others’ ways of thinking. Sometimes a simpler way of doing things may be a better way.

Sample 1：

In the picture, between two closely-located buildings grows a big tree. Unlike most trees, this one bends in the middle , struggling all the way up to get more sunshine. The picture reminds me of those who succeed in unfavorable conditions. Faced with difficulties, they never give up but try their best to find a way out. Life can be hard. But if we have the courage and determination, we will finally get the sunshine we want as the tree in the picture does.

Sample 2：

In the picture we see a tree growing up between two strange buildings. Although in such poor condition, the tree doesn't give up.

Like the tree growing there, I believe that we can overcome many difficulties in the future if we are persistent. For us as students we have to solve many problems and work hard in our studies. Let me take English learning for example. Keep working hard, you will see someone of value, someone who is going to be more successful, someone who is going to win. Y ou will see someone worthy of winning because you have worked for it.

In a word, as they say: “ Just do it, never give up”.

范文

In the picture, there stands a tree full of fruit on one side of the stream. Across the stream, a man is trying to reach out on the edge of the band for the fruit with a net attached to a pole. Not far away there is a bridge that can lead him to the tree for more fruit.

The message conveyed in the picture is clear. In pursuing a dream, we might focus on only one say of making it come true, forgetting that there may be alternatives. As indicated in the picture, if the man is willing to look for other possibilities, he can find a better and more rewarding way to achieve his goal. All he has to do is to turn around, cross the bridge and walk to the tree.
