图画作文第一段:图画描述与主题阐述
图画描述(第 1、2 句)
引入图画描述(过渡句)
升级前:As is shown in the picture above, 图画描述. 注:升级前的句子就是你脑海中立刻浮现的句子,我们升级后再使用。
升级后:As is symbolically depicted in the cartoon above,还可用以下待选句(单图):
1.The cartoon above presents us with a thought-provoking scene:上面的漫画向我们呈现了一个发人深省的场景:
2.Portrayed distinctively in the drawing above is a common scene:画中清晰地描绘出一个常见的场景:
3.What is clearly conveyed in the picture is that 图片明确传达出的是4.Depicted in the picture above is a scene that strikes us as both familiar and thought-provoking:图中描绘的是一个既熟悉又发人深省的场景:
注 1:如果是两幅图,记得用复数。图画描述时中间需用连词,相似用 Similarly/
Likewise,对比用 While / Whereas,同时用 Meanwhile/ At the same time, 递进用 Moreover/ Furthermore.
注 2:如果是一图一表,其实就是图画描述和图表总体描述的简单叠加。
As is vividly depicted in the cartoon and clearly shown in the chart above, 图画描述, and 图表总体描述.
The cartoon above depicts 图画描述, while the chart below illustrates 图表总体描述.
一般的作文书、课就到此为止了,没有讲核心内容——如何描述图画?即便是讲解了,你会发现他们对不同的图画有不同的描述方法,就好像量身定制一样,很难实现举一反三,这就是为什么你背了很多篇范文却还是没有学会写作。因此我们应该统一图画描述的方法,即分类、拆分、组合法。
如何描述图画:分类、拆分、组合法

一幅图(非对话型)


拆分
- 主体:很好判断,通常为人或物。
- 环境:若环境清晰明显,就写出具体环境;若环境不清晰,可用万能环境:在我们面前 in front of us、在图画中间 in the middle of the picture。
- 基本动作:描述主体的存在方式,一般来说就是:站 stand、坐 sit、躺 lie、跑 run、停留 stay。
- 主要动作:作者想要突出的动作,例如:听 listen、说 talk、读 read、写 write、穿 wear、盯 stare、想 think。
- 细节:描述主体的表情和心态,如果想不起来,可以不写。
- 主体:一个年轻人 a young man
- 环境:在操场上 on the playground
- 基本动作:跑 run
- 主要动作:冲线 rush
- 细节:笑 smile
组合
As is symbolically depicted in the picture above, on the playground runs a young man, rushing to the finishing line, with a sweet smile on his face.升级
加入 as well as 结构修饰主体: As is symbolically depicted in the picture above, on the playground runs a young man, active as well as vigorous, rushing to the finishing line, with a sweet smile on his face. active as well as vigorous 活跃又有精力的结构:形容词 1+as well as +形容词 2 记住以下两组形容词,以人或“拟人”为主体的图画用的上!
再练一遍,例 2001 年:

拆分(例 2001 年)
- 主体:小油灯 an oil lamp
- 环境:在我们面前 in front of us
- 基本动作:待着 stay
- 主要动作:照亮 light up
- 细节:笑 smile
组合(例 2001 年)
As is symbolically depicted in the picture above, in front of us stays an oil lamp, lovely as well as cute, lighting up the darkness, with a sweet smile on its face.升级(例 2001 年)
还是短,翻译图画上的文字:Encircling the lamp are the words:” Love is a lamp. The darker the place, the brighter it shines.”有时图画中或下方会出现一句话或标题,大概率是主题词,主题词将会在下一句“主题阐述”句给出。因此在以往版本的作文模板中,为避免重复我不建议大家写这句话。但当你 1.描述图画遇到困难,首段篇幅较短;2.标题并不直接是主题词时,可以描述,句型如下: Below the drawing, there is a caption which reads: 翻译. The caption beneath the drawing reads: 翻译. A profound statement is placed below the picture: 翻译.一幅图(对话型)


拆分
- 主体:两位女生 two girls
- 环境:公告栏 in front of the board 或者万能环境 in front of us
- 基本动作:站着 stand
- 主要动作:谈论 talk about/discuss
组合
As is symbolically depicted in the picture above, in front of us stand two girls, talking about campus lectures. 如上图所示,两位女孩站在我们面前,正在谈论校园讲座。 One argues that campus lectures are irrelevant to her major and a waste of time. By contrast, the other maintains that attending such lectures is highly beneficial nonetheless. 其中一人认为,校园讲座与她的专业无关,是浪费时间;而另一人则坚持认为,参加这类讲座仍然大有裨益。(转述) 或 The girl on the left says,“The lecture is not related to our major, which is a waste of time.” By contrast, the girl on the right answers,“It will be beneficial nonetheless.”左边的女孩说:“这个讲座和我们的专业无关,是浪费时间。”相比之下,右边的女孩回答:“但仍然会有所收获。”(直述)常用替换词
- 认为:believe / contend / assert / claim / declare / state / point out / is convinced
that / hold the view that / express the view that - 关联词:对比 Meanwhile / On the contrary / Conversely / However
相似 Similarly / Likewise
两幅图


拆分
- 主体:年轻人 the girl/boy
- 主要动作:think/ say/ do homework/ lie
组合
The cartoons provide us with a thought-provoking scene: the girl in the left picture is fully focused on her homework, thinking that she will feel relieved when she finishes her work. However in the right picture, the boy is lying on the sofa, telling himself that he will not start until the deadline. 漫画为我们呈现了一个发人深省的场景:左边的女孩全神贯注地做着作业,心想只要完成任务就会感到轻松。而右边的男孩却躺在沙发上,告诉自己要等到最后期限才开始。(转述) …saying,“I will feel relieved when I finish my work”.(直述) …saying,“I will not start until the deadline.”(直述) The girl believes that early completion will bring her relief.(更好的转述)升级
升级需要补充基本动作+环境(见前文)。 The cartoons provide us with a thought-provoking scene: the girl in the left picture, sitting in front of the desk, is fully focused on her homework and says that she will feel relieved when she finishes her work. However, the boy lying on the sofa in the right picture says that he will not start until the last minute. 学至此处有没有觉得很熟悉呢?你会发现两幅图和一幅图写法类似,熟练后不必再看公式区分,直接增加句子成分、拉长句子、灵活使用就可以了。例外
例 2010 年:该年份不适用于以上方法,而是用 there be 句型:
主题阐述(第 3 句)

引出主题阐述(过渡句)
升级前:The purpose of the drawing is to remind us that…
注:此组单词使用前需要考虑语境,越具体越好。例如 24、25 年用 residents、 23 年用 rural residents、22 年用 undergraduates。
升级后:The primary intention of the drawing is to remind the whole society that…
这幅图的首要意图是提醒整个社会…
待选句:Simple as the drawing is, it conveys a truth that…
图画虽然简单但是蕴含真理, The drawing, undoubtedly, emphasizes the core idea that…
这幅图,毫无疑问,突出了这样的核心观点…
What the cartoon above mirrors is a thought-provoking phenomenon that…
上图反映的是一个发人深省的现象…
注:以上待选句,任选其一背诵即可。各种作文书里都有,它们给出类似上文所示的几个句子,却不告诉你省略号和冒号后边的中心思想怎么写。这就是上了考场无法套用的原因。下面我们来讲省略号代表的内容,即中心思想。
中心思想
方案 1:如此重要以至于 升级前:主题词 is so important that the problem deserves the highest level of attention and consideration. 注:主题词要具体到事,比如:信心匮乏、环境恶化、文化交流、广泛学习、行动、榜样、选择等。
升级后:主题词 is so indispensable that the subject deserves the highest level of attention and consideration.
以传统文化为例,2023 年:

- It is 主题词 that must be our top priority. 首要任务
- It is 主题词 that requires our immediate attention. 立即关注
