2013年6月英语四级真题完整点评(新东方版)
四级三篇作文真题点评

On Doing Small Things
上午的四级考试,的亮点之一,就是写作。亮点在于其命题形式:图画作文。
我在北京新东方的面授班(四级写作点睛班)上曾讲解图画作文,分析,在2012年6月16日,六级考察了图画作文,而当时,图画作文出现在六级也是次;目前,四级已经考察了图表作文,考研(微博)考的题,六级都没有考过;因此这么推论分析,也可能这次四级轮到图画作文了 —— 考研考过,六级考过,就剩你四级了!
图画的内容和构图不难:父亲和男孩子的对话,孩子说“ Dad,I am a bit worried about disposing of nuclear weapon. (爸爸,我有点担心清除核武器这个问题)”,父亲则回答“ If you can empty the dustbin, you can do anything. (如果你能把垃圾桶倒掉,你就能坐好任何事情)” ,说话间,手指着垃圾桶。
这幅图画和2012年6月的六级漫画作文非常相似,当时的图中,也是两人对话,女儿和父亲。父亲问女儿:“ Hi, sweetie, how was your school today ? (嘿,小甜心,你在今天在学校过得怎么样?)” 女儿非常冷漠的回答:“Dad,you can read all about it on my blogs. (爹哋,你自己可以在我的博客上读到所有内容)”,然后呢,女儿拔腿出门,留下父亲一脸惊愕。
说回这个四级的作文题。
作文的段,要进行简单描绘图画内容,这是必须的,也是题目中强制要求的(a brief description of the picture)。描述的时候,只要把父子两的对话移植到段,然后把父亲手指垃圾桶的动作描绘一下就可以了,非常简单。
作文的第二段,进行主旨提炼并且论述。这幅图画很容易看出主题,那就是做大事之前,要先做小事(一屋不扫,何以扫天下),而且题目中其实早就已经透露了主题了 (express your views on the importance of doing small things before undertaking something big.)因此,第二段通篇论述小事做起的重要性就可以了。属于我在课堂上讲过的作文三大分类之“积极主题,论述意义”
作文第三段,总结,启发。这一段再次强调小事做起的意义,我们不能低估他的威力。文章后可以以名人名言作为结尾。
请看范文:
We can see from the cartoon that there is a father talking with his son. Having heard his son’s words that “ Dad, I am a bit worried about disposing of nuclear waste.” The father replies that “ If you can empty the dustbin here, you can do anything” and points the garbage can beside him.
Funny and common as the conversation sounds, it reflects that the father intends to advise his son to do small things before undertaking big. Definitely, doing small things is the first step of success and will lay root for doing something big. By doing something small, we are able to accumulate experience, master skills and train ourselves to be more patient. In other words, we can be well prepared for further challenges in the course of fulfilling small things. By contrast, those who desire to do something big at once will constantly be haunted by disappointment, frustrations or even failures, As when opportunities-“something big” appears, they can hardly seize them because of the lack of experience and confidence stems from doing small things. Taking the picture presented above as a case in point, how can the little boy succeed in disposing of nuclear weapons if he even doesn’t know how to empty the dustbin?
From my perspective, under no circumstances should we undervalue the power of doing small things. Instead, we should regard small things as the source of experience, skills and the prerequisite of success. “Great achievement only belongs to those who can do small things perfectly.” Aristotle used to say.
范文译文:
如图所示,我们可以看见有一位父亲正在和他的儿子聊天。当父亲听到儿子说:“ 爸爸,我有点担心如何处理核武器这个问题” 的时候,父亲指着身边的垃圾桶,并且回答道:“ 如果你可以把垃圾桶倒掉,你就可以做到任何事情”。
尽管这段父子对话听起来滑稽、普通,然而他折射出父亲的意图,想劝告儿子在做大事之前,要先做好小事。很明显,做好小事情是成功的步,并且能为将来的大事情打下基础。通过做小事情,我们可以积累经验,掌握技能,并且让我们自己变得更加具有耐心。换句话说,我们可以在做小事情的过程中,为将来的大事情做好充分准备。相反的,哪些想要一上来就做大事情的人,通常会遭受失望、挫折甚至是失败,因为当机会这些“大事情”出现的时候,这部分人基本无法抓住机会,因为他们缺少源自于做小事过程当中的经验和自信。以所给的这幅图画为例,如果这个男孩都不知道如何倾倒垃圾桶,他怎么可能做成功处理核武器这样的大事呢?
