答案

Jim, I think the picture conveys a message that we always need to develop ourselves to a higher level instead of being satisfied with the present situation.
You see the giraffe holding his head high towards a tall tree, trying to eat the leaves on it. Obviously, she is challenging herself, although she can eat the leaves from the small trees easily. I admire the giraffe because although it is tall enough to reach leaves from the lower trees, she still works hard trying to get the upper leaves. That’s because she knows the small trees will sooner or later grow into big trees. Things are the same in our real life. The situation is always changing and there is no reason for us to be satisfied with what we have now. Instead, we must develop ourselves to a higher level to be well prepared for the unpredictable future. Without the seemingly “useless” attempts, the giraffe may not survive in nature. As for human beings, the endless development means a way to a better life.            
So let’s develop ourselves to a higher level to make a wonderful life. This is my opinion. Do you agree with me?

解析

试题分析：这是一篇看图作文，认真读图，可知图画反映了我们不能自我满足的问题，写作时不要仅仅对要点进行生硬的翻译，而是要添加些内容，使文章看起来更充实，要组成一篇通顺连贯的短文。需要注意紧扣文章主题，给出的要点都需要包括，缺一不可。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，一定要契合给出的开头，不能出现文章脱节问题。尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。
点评：看图作文要求考生将画面所包含的有效信息直接运用英语思维转换成英语语言文字，再根据这些要点谋篇布局。要求考生把看到的图画用文字表达出来，除了能表达清楚图画中的信息外，考生还需要根据词数要求，适当拓展并发挥想象，从而使文章的叙述不单调。如果是记叙文类的写作素材，考生要注意故事的时间、地点、人物、事件的起因、过程、结果这六个要素；如果是说明文或议论文，考生则首先要对图画的内容进行描述，然后围绕图画的信息进行说明或议论。此时考生一定要注意把握图画的中心思想，写出图画要反映的内容。
