“年年歲歲題相似，歲歲年年人不同”，這句話比較好詮釋了近10年考研英語大作文的特點。2010年1月9日下午的英語考試剛剛落下帷幕，廣大考研學子還要為明天的專業(yè)課或數(shù)學考試做比較后的拼搏。在經(jīng)歷了從08年連續(xù)三年大作文部分比較容易審題之后，今年的考生也普遍感覺大小作文和往年一樣難度適中，體現(xiàn)在大家都覺得有話可說。廣大考生只要認真回憶我們啟航強化和沖刺課堂上講授的話題和背誦內(nèi)容，就會發(fā)現(xiàn)此次大小作文命題都是屬于我們課堂上分析過的圖畫作文，及有關(guān)通知內(nèi)容模板的寫法。下面來分析一下今年的大小作文，并提供范文供大家參考。

　　從05年到09年，小作文已經(jīng)測試過辭職信(道歉信)、請求信和建議信的寫法，08年重考了偏向于與私人交流的道歉信，09年小作文接著又重考了考生對建議信的寫作�？梢赃@么說，近兩年的小作文都是再測試以往考過的話題。而今年2010年的小作文還是照搬近幾年一貫的出題方式----書信寫作，并沒有測試今年在廣大考生中流傳的摘要的寫法。

　　2010年的小作文要求以研究生的名義寫一封通知，通知的內(nèi)容是為全球一體化的國際會議招募志愿者，這個通知必須包括申請者的基本職位及你認為相關(guān)的其它信息。通知信件具體內(nèi)容要求考生自由發(fā)揮的余地較大，考生可以思考出一些具體要求。首先，我們按照書信的一貫寫法，開門見山地說出有一次全球化會議需要招聘志愿者。至于基本職位，因為是國際會議，所以我們自然而言地想出，會議的第一個要求是語言要求，要求能說英語或更多其它語言。同時要求申請者具備一些好的品質(zhì)，比如耐心，樂于助人，有愛心等。然后再把具體的聯(lián)系地址和下一步的要求說清楚就行。下面是我們提供的一個參考范文。

　　二，大作文審題

　　Directions:

　　Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing. In your essay, you should

　　1)describe the drawing briefly,

　　2) explain its intended meaning, and，

　　3) give your comments。

　　正如我們所料，2010年的大作文還是考了我們所預(yù)測的圖畫作文，這是考研歷史上第11次考圖畫作文了。字數(shù)要求在160--200詞。圖畫作文往往是一張抽象而意味深長的圖片或漫畫，有時讓人很難理解。今年的圖畫只有一張圖，但主題明顯直接。圖畫中間是一個火鍋，火鍋里面寫滿了很多漢字，比如佛，功夫，解構(gòu)，禮，后現(xiàn)代，老舍，莎士比亞，愛因斯坦，道，仁，京劇等許多代表中國和外國文化的東西。把這些東西放在一起，就意味著中西文化融合在一起，特別是下面的文字提示：文化“火鍋”，既美味又營養(yǎng)。能更好地幫助我們理解圖畫的主題：即文化融合Cultural integration的問題�？梢哉f這也是一個考研永恒的話題，這個話題在2002考研作文里面出現(xiàn)過，可以說是同一個主題。

　　考研大作文多年來關(guān)注的是對青少年思想品德方面的教育，比如：01年要培養(yǎng)愛心;02年要把民族文化發(fā)揚光大;03年要學會自立自強;04年要與時俱進;05年要孝敬父母;06年關(guān)于偶像崇拜;07年的自信;08的合作與團結(jié)，09年人們普遍關(guān)心的網(wǎng)絡(luò)問題。從中我們可以看得出命題專家們對教育年輕一代的良苦用心。所以我們可以概括出大作文的命題規(guī)律是有關(guān)青年人成長的問題居多，另外就是社會上的一些熱點或人們普遍關(guān)心的話題。這一點對2011年考生的作文備考有很大幫助。

　　在寫大作文時，第一段需要簡短描述圖畫的內(nèi)容。今年的圖畫中的火鍋hot pot，以及代表中國文化的許多東西，考生沒必要一一翻譯出來，自己量力而行，選擇幾個有代表性的東西翻譯出來就行。第二段需要闡釋圖畫寓意，其實就是讓我們分析文化的融合和交流問題這一現(xiàn)象。比較后一段應(yīng)該表明作者本人對文化融合和交流這種現(xiàn)象的態(tài)度或看法。

　　【作文思路】

　　按照我們課堂上的寫作方法，可以這樣來展開描述和議論。第一段為傳統(tǒng)的圖畫描述段，根據(jù)圖畫中的具體信息，尤其是下面的文字說明，進行直接描述。比如可以運用我們沖刺課堂上傳授的精彩句型 " Whoever in front of this cartoon/drawing/picture will be greatly impressed. How amusing and interesting it is! What is vividly illustrated in the painting above is that currently cultural integration is highly pervasive in China. (對漫畫籠統(tǒng)地描述)。然后再補上后面的文字解釋說明：The caption(圖畫中的文字)indicates that Chinese culture is like a hot pot, which is both tasty and nutritious. "屬經(jīng)典的開頭套話。在描述中，不可缺少的主題相關(guān)詞包括" cultural integration (文化融合)", 及許多代表中國文化特色的東西，" Beijing opera, Daoism, Gongfu, Shakespeare, Einstain, 等與“文化”有關(guān)的詞匯。

　　第二段要求闡釋漫畫背后所隱藏的深刻社會意義。在這一段首句可以直接采用" Simply designed as the picture is, the symbolic meaning it conveys is deep and profound. It is, most likely, that the drawer intends not only to present the fact to us but also to set us thinking about its social significance。在句型運用方面，可以考慮使用啟航課堂上反復(fù)提到的必殺詞組“The foremost and the most striking influence of it，As is universally acknowledged，和What makes things even better等。第三段闡述自己的一些看法或想法，發(fā)揮它的長處，來使我們的生活更快樂和有意義。

　　參考范文

　　As is vividly depicted in the drawing, in the middle of the cartoon stands a hot pot, containing many Chinese cultural symbols, such as Beijing operas, Daoism, and some foreigh cultural symbols, etc. How impressive the drawing is in describing the common phenomenon that Chinese culture is becoming increasingly integrated into the world. The drawer’s intention seems to be highly self-evident and the meaning causes us to be thought-provoking。

　　It holds to be apparent that the cartoon is indicative of a pervasive phenomenon with regard to culture. When it comes to(一談到) culture，its great impacts and benefits can’t be too estimated. As China opens to the outside world, our traditional culture is embracing the foreign culture, thus making our Chinese culture more diversified, colorful and internationalized just like a melting pot. What the picture conveys goes far beyond this. The fact that people from different countries are attracted to each other, indicating that to some extent different cultures can be accepted，respected，appreciated and shared internationally. In other words，Chinese unique culture can become international through worldwide economic and cultural exchanges. Since the trend of globalization become irresistible, cultural integration can effectively improve mutual understanding and friendship among different countries. In my personal sense, Chinese national culture as priceless spiritual treasure should be preserved and cherished. Meanwhile，there are good reasons to embrace foreign cultures on the ground that those ideas from the other cultures can provide a different perspective for us to observe the world in the long run. However，confronted with a different culture，we should be sensible enough to absorb its essence and to resist its dark side. Only in this way can we promote cultural integration and development positively, thus making our motherland dimensional，colorful and vigorous. (303 words)
