In the picture, a woman can not truly relax even on Womens Day, because she has to do her job with a cautious and conscientious attitude during the day, and devote all her attention to take care of her husband and child after work.Through the pictu
7、re, the purpose of the painter is not difficult to catch. He might want to attract our more attention to womens position in the modern society. Todays women are granted the equal right with men by law. They are playing an increasingly important part in many fields, some of which used to be held main

11、ights are unnecessarily turned on to project the slogan on a board, which, ironically, calls for building up a thrifty society to ensure sustainable development. Clearly, the cartoon reveals a very common problem in our country.The implied meaning of the drawing is that extravagance and waste have b
12、ecome increasingly serious in China. We can see that papers, bottles and cans are thrown away after use; food is wasted just because of its poor taste; clothes are discarded simply due to their old fashion. Not only things and money are wasted, but natural resources are abused as well. Trees are cho
13、pped down merely for fuel; wildlife is killed simply for food; oil, coal and minerals are exploited in a bad way.It is time to call for an end to waste and extravagance.

15、 【正确答案】 It goes without saying that the drawing aims at revealing a common and serious problem in China; equalitarianism. Lets take a closer look at the drawing. In a competition, all the contestants have won the first prize, while none taking home the second or third prize. It is obvious that the c
16、hampionship is a-warded indiscriminately to all of them without considering the different contributions each makes.There exists no more poisonous poison in this phenomenon; it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice. On the one hand, it will discourage those who make g
17、reater contributions in the contest. As a consequence, they will not be working hard next time. On the other hand, those who do not deserve the award will not do their best next time after they get the same award with less efforts. All this will lead to a depressing situation; none will make efforts
18、 in the future.It is high time that we should take drastic measures to change this situation. As the first step, competition organizers should make specific rules to guide the contestants. As the second step, strict regulations should be set up to discipline anyone who violates these rules. Finally,
19、 all the contestants and audience should be made aware of the harmfulness of the equalitarianism. Only through these attempts can this problem be solved.【知识模块】 短文写作4 【正确答案】 To err is human; to admit it and ask for discipline, superhuman. The latter is what the man in the picture does.

20、 the cartoon, a man is apologizing by carrying a rod to ask for punishment for his past mistakes. Clearly, he will correct his mistakes and make a new person of himself as well as get pardoned.What the picture conveys is significant in our life. An error gracefully acknowledged and remedied is a vic
21、tory. In admitting our mistakes, we open our lives to healing, reconciling, restoring, uplifting grace of him who loves us in spite of what we are. If one could not admit and correct ones mistake, one will carry them around in the future. People of this kind may amount to nothing. He may even fall f
22、rom grace because of these mistakes, no matter how hard he works, for these mistakes will become a heavy burden and drag him backwards. Therefore, when one makes a mistake, one should admit it, correct it, and learn from it immediately before one moves on.We should face reality and our past mistakes
23、 in an honest, adult way. Perhaps this concept can be better illustrated by the anecdotes of great historical figures. A good case is George Washington , who, as a child, admitted his mistake of cutting down a cherry tree, which normally leads to a heavy punishment. However, George was praised by hi
24、s father because of his graceful acknowledgement. Another example is Jean Jacques, who is now well respected by his readers due to his honest account of more humiliating and shameful moments. Actually their honesty in admitting their mistakes and determination to remedy them has cleared the score and proves them wiser than before.【知识模块】 短文写作
