審題及提綱

圖畫中的一男一女佩戴著夸張的大口罩，面對(duì)面站著卻在伸頭張望,，由文字提示可知,，他們看不清彼此。這不禁使人聯(lián)想到近來很熱門的空氣污染問題：霧霾,。眾所周知,，霧霾會(huì)對(duì)人體健康造成危害，這也正是圖中二人均佩戴口罩的原因——防止吸入PM2.5,。文章的主題由此確立,。考生可先對(duì)當(dāng)前的空氣狀況進(jìn)行描述,，然后著重論述空氣污染對(duì)人體健康造成的危害并分析造成污染的原因,。

第一段：描述圖畫,。先對(duì)細(xì)節(jié)展開描述,，注意需出現(xiàn)有關(guān)霧霾的描述性語句。比如,，對(duì)二者佩戴口罩的描述以及近在咫尺卻無法看清彼此的描述,。然后引出圖畫所反映的問題。

第二段：結(jié)合現(xiàn)實(shí),，充分延展,。先描述當(dāng)今霧霾的狀況，可給出相關(guān)調(diào)查或報(bào)道中的數(shù)據(jù)加以佐證，由此引出霧霾的危害性,，最后引申到霧霾的成因,。

第三段：總結(jié)評(píng)論。呼吁人們?yōu)榱俗陨斫】当Ｗo(hù)環(huán)境,。

經(jīng)典模板范文

Under the haze stand a male and a female who are wearing masks respectively, being apart for only just a half meter. They are stretching their heads, seemingly to find something. After a long, hard stare, they ultimately find that it is a person who stands opposite. Apparently, a murky haze swallows us around the corner.

The picture ironically illustrates how terrible air pollution is. Sadly as it is, the phenomenon in the picture is a daily reality. A survey conducted by China Environmental Protection Association shows that the average reading of PM2.5 in major cities of China is hundreds times higher than that in developed countries. Such horrible air conditions are posing a threat to our health and fitness. Dirty air or air-borne particles may cause stinging eyes and running nose. These pollutants are hazardous. A notable example is that everyday thousands of people die of lung cancer and asthma caused by air pollution. Some people regard the emergence of air pollution as the side effect of the stimulus-encouraged car-buying spree. However, the real blame should be put on the uncontrolled industrial development.

Even though the issue whether it is worth sacrificing the environment for the development of economy remains controversial, there is definitely something we can do to save the environment for our own sake, such as taking public transport more often and use renewable energy wherever we can.

相隔不過半米的一位男士和一位女士各自戴著一個(gè)大口罩站在霧霾下,。他們伸長(zhǎng)了脖子，似乎在尋找什么,。經(jīng)過艱難長(zhǎng)久的觀察之后,，他們最終發(fā)現(xiàn)站在對(duì)面的是一個(gè)人。很明顯,，渾濁的霧霾吞沒了近在咫尺的你我,。

這幅圖諷刺地闡釋了空氣污染的嚴(yán)重性。盡管看起來令人心酸,，但圖中的現(xiàn)象卻是生活中的事實(shí),。一項(xiàng)由中國環(huán)保協(xié)會(huì)開展的調(diào)查表明：中國主要城市的PM2.5平均值是發(fā)達(dá)國家的幾百倍。如此糟糕的空氣質(zhì)量正在威脅著我們的健康,。污染的空氣和空中浮游物會(huì)引起眼睛刺痛,、流鼻涕。這些污染物是有危害的,。一個(gè)顯著的例子就是每天都有幾千人死于由空氣污染引發(fā)的肺癌和哮喘,。有人將空氣污染的出現(xiàn)視為刺激和鼓勵(lì)汽車消費(fèi)的副作用。但是,，真正的責(zé)任方應(yīng)該是無節(jié)制的工業(yè)發(fā)展,。

盡管關(guān)于以犧牲環(huán)境為代價(jià)來發(fā)展經(jīng)濟(jì)是否值得這個(gè)問題仍具有爭(zhēng)議性，但是為了自己,，我們一定可以采取一些措施來拯救環(huán)境,，比如盡量多乘坐公共交通工具以及盡可能地使用可再生能源。

靚句分析

①Sadly as it is, the phenomenon in the picture is a daily reality.

本句旨在將圖畫信息與現(xiàn)實(shí)情況相結(jié)合,，既承接上文,，又為下文論述環(huán)境污染的現(xiàn)狀埋下伏筆,。該句的亮點(diǎn)是“as”的使用：as引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句，表示“雖然,，盡管”,，從句使用倒裝語序,，使整個(gè)句子簡(jiǎn)潔而不簡(jiǎn)單,。 

②However, the real blame should be put on the uncontrolled industrial development.

本句劃線部分可視作模板句式,，用于引出造成某一現(xiàn)象或問題的真正原因。繼上文提出“the stimulus-encouraged carbuying spree”這一表面原因之后,，作者以“However”起句,，并選用“the real blame should be put on…”這一結(jié)構(gòu)引出真正的責(zé)任方。與“The real reason is…”等平鋪直敘的表述相比,，這種寫法更具新意,。

③Even though the issue whether it is worth sacrificing the environment for the development of economy remains controversial, there is definitely something we can do to save the environment for our own sake, such as taking public transport more often and use renewable energy wherever we can.

本句為結(jié)尾段，既總結(jié)了全文,，又深化了主題,。Even though引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語從句是對(duì)前文中造成空氣污染的原因的重述；主句是對(duì)文章主旨的進(jìn)一步延伸,，即呼吁人們從自身出發(fā),，保護(hù)環(huán)境。句尾“such as”引導(dǎo)的短語為具體措施的舉例,，使作者的呼吁更加充實(shí)有力,。結(jié)尾雖一句成段，但句子結(jié)構(gòu)清晰,，層次分明,，且信息表達(dá)完整，是考生模仿的典范,。
