主題2：圖畫、圖表類作文寫作指南

Test 1

A recent survey shows that the healthof the students in our school has been goingfrom bad to worse in the past three years.The number of nearsighted students has in?creased from 77% in 2019 to 93.5% in2022， while that of overweight studentsfrom 38% to 57.2%. Nearly 15% more stu?dents dont have enough sleep because ofmore homework. Besides， over 21% morestudents become mentally unhealthy.

It seems to me that the reasons forthis lie in a heavier burden of study andmore homework. To improve students hea?lth， we call for less homework. Proper dietsand exercise should also be paid attentionto so that they won't easily put on weight.With their heavy burden removed， studentscan then keep mentally healthy.

Test 2

Recently there was a heated discussionin my class. We made our choices as towhether we are willing to have the eveningself?study at school or not. 60% of the stu?dents are in favor of the evening self?studyat school， saying that they can learn moreefficiently under the guidance and manage?ment of teachers and with the company oftheir fellow classmates.

Meanwhile， a quarter of the class pre?fer not to study in this format. They argueagainst it on account of disturbance fromclassmates and possible danger on the wayhome. Still 15% of us dont have a specificanswer. They dont mind it if they are re?quired to have evening self?study as longas their study time is ensured.

Test 3

Recently， the Students Union of our sch?ool did a survey on the situation of highschool students doing housework at home.The results are as follows.

55% of the students never do house?work at home， while 10% of the students dothat every day. 12% of the students dochores occasionally， namely once or twicea week. And the percentage of the studentswho do housework three or four times aweek is 23%.

In my opinion， it is good for students?to do some housework. Doing some house?work can make us independent and cankeep us healthy and strong. Also， doingsome housework can share our parentswork. They must be happy if you shouldersome housework voluntarily.

Test 4

Nowadays， some students are payingless and less attention to their handwriting.According to a recent survey in a middleschool among 100 students， more than halfof the students think their handwriting isbad. 28% of the students think their hand?writing is just so?so. Only 17% of the stu?dents think their handwriting is good.

Good handwriting can make readersfeel good. My handwriting is always verygood. I got higher marks than most of myclassmates last term because I had goodhandwriting.

Actually， handwriting is necessaryand important because we need it in oureveryday life. People can know a person byhis or her handwriting.

Test 5

In the picture， a boy is sleeping on alarge opened book with sheets of paper anda pair of glasses beside him. He must havedone some reading before falling asleep.Besides， the sweet smile on his face showsthat he is satisfied with what he has gained?from the books.

To my understanding， the picture in?tends to tell us the importance of reading，through which we can increase our knowl?edge， broaden our mind， enrich our lifeand make ourselves relaxed， too.

As a student， I think we should readas many good books as possible. Only inthis way can we improve ourselves greatly.

My review on The Cop and the Anthem

Recently， I read a novel entitled TheCop and the Anthem， which was written byO. Henry. This story narrates a homelessman， Soapy， who tried to commit crimes tobe arrested by a cop for a three?month shel?ter in prison but failed each time. However，when he wished to behave better， he wasarrested by a cop for nothing bad. The au?thor wants to show us that society at thattime was ridiculous when bad people wereseen as innocent while good people bad.

I think one characteristic drawnthroughout this novel is the vivid use ofcontrast. O. Henry is skilled at adoptingcontrast to emphasize the difference be?tween Soapys clean past and his worthlesspresent to underline his eagerness for anew change.

In conclusion， I learn the messagefrom this novel that historical backgroundis important to a mans destiny， for good orbad.

三、圖畫、圖表類作文

Test 1

Recently a survey has been con?ducted by the English Learning Club onwhat middle school students read afterclass. As the chart shows， 39% read litera?ture; 30% read popular science; 13% readreference books; 8% read philosophy andhistory and the rest 10% choose to read oth?ers.

Literature is entertaining and informa?tive， which makes it popular among middleschool students. Popular science can helpstudents acquire more knowledge， so manylike it. Additionally， students need to readreference books to get better scores.

Personally， students have different in?terests， so they read different books in theirspare time. Whatever they read， it will be?nefit them greatly.

Test 2

The Organization for EconomicCooperation and Development （OECD）asked 600，000 teenagers what worriedthem most about their lives.

It turns out that forty percent of thestudents feel pressure from their academicassignments; thirty percent of the studentsfeel a little nervous about their relationshipwith their parents; twenty ? five percent ofthe students care more about their own im?age， which gives them some confusion. Theremaining five percent of the students feelanxious and concerned about other things.

As far as I am concerned， what makesme anxious and confused is my academicperformance. I think I should get morehelp from parents and teachers.

Test 3

As is known， nature is our best teach?er. Its not surprising for us to draw wisdomand take inspiration from it. As the pictureshows， there are two birds， one sleepingwhile the other with a worm in its mouth.This presents a well?known Chinese idiom“The early bird catches the worm.”

The idiom reminds us of the impor?tance of diligence. It is also a metaphorthat hard work plays an important role onthe road to success. Opportunities are al?ways for those prepared minds， and onlywhen we are well?prepared can we makeachievements， attaining our goals.

Test 4

Dear Mr Johnson，

Recently volunteers have conducted asurvey about how the students spend theirweekends.

As can be seen from the pie， amongthe surveyed students， about 51% of theirtime is spent on homework while online ac?tivities account for nearly 35%. Meanwhile，doing physical exercise takes up about 7%of their time， sharing the same percentagewith reading books.

The survey certainly leaves me deepin thought. Too much homework leaves thestudents no time for physical exercise orreading， affecting their health and furtherdevelopment. Even worse， many of the sur?veyed waste much time online， some evenaddicted to computer games. Studentsshould have more freedom to do somethingmore meaningful， rather than just doingboring repetitive exercises.

Yours，

Li Hua

四、命題作文

Test 1

He who does not reach the Great Wall?is not a true man

Determination plays a vital role inreaching our goal. Only when we are deter?mined to entirely contribute ourselves toour dream， can we eventually make it andbecome a true hero.

Three years ago， I was extremely poorat English. Realizing that it would be anobstacle which would prevent me from suc?ceeding， I spared as much time as possibleto improve it. I did a lot of reading， writingand speaking. So far， I have had a goodcommand of English.

From this experience， I can draw theconclusion that a true man with determina?tion will undoubtedly reach the GreatWall.

Test 2

Failure is the stepping stone to success

The saying that failure is the steppingstone to success shows that failure always?comes before success.

When I was in Grade One， I per?formed badly in the final exams. Frustratedas I was， I made the failure an opportunityfor me to test my persistence and determi?nation to catch up with others. So I im?proved my learning methods and workedharder than ever until I finally made it.

This experience gave me a lesson thatfailure contributes to success. Consequent?ly， Ill move on with a sense of achieve?ment and tremendous confidence， neverafraid of any failure again.

Test 3

East or west， health comes first

As is known to all， health is of greatsignificance. Like the foundation of ahouse， health comes first in our daily life.

In addition to mental health， physicalhealth also plays an important role. Onlywhen we get both aspects of health can wepursue our dreams successfully. To keephealthy， I think it necessary to take properexercise and have a balanced diet. Whatsmore， keeping a positive attitude alsocounts， which will help us overcome thedifficulties in our studies and lives.

In a word， we are supposed to attachimportance to our health. The healthier weare， the better life we will live.
