第十六天：大小寫作 得分多多---圖畫作文套話
在上一篇文章中，我著重談到了圖畫作文的結構問題。臨近考試，不少考生希望背一些模版，或套話，這是可以理解的。寫套話能湊字數(shù)，也能使自己的文章在結構上趨近大作文的要求。從這個意義上來說，可以使用套話，有時甚至必須使用套話。另一方面，套話過多，或者說全文都是一些空洞無物、不痛不癢，根本不涉及所考圖畫具體內容的套話，最終判分不可能高，甚至會很低。有鑒于此，我主張用套話提示文章的大結構、段落的小結構，具體內容應該自己填充。其實，即算是這樣，套話已經(jīng)不少了。所以考生不要擔心自己的字數(shù)不夠。以前面分析過的范文(其中明顯的語法與用詞錯誤已改正)為例，看看哪些話是可以套用的。
More and more young people are increasingly influenced by foreign culture. As can be clearly seen from the above picture, a young gentleman has put “Beckham” on his face. Another decently dressed young gentleman is willing to pay 300 yuan to have his hair made in his favorite style. It is clear that the picture implies a common phenomenon in our society today: a growing number of people, especially the young, are endlessly chasing popular things, disregarding the cost that they must pay.
There are at least two good reasons for this phenomenon. In the first place, the spreading of foreign culture in our country in recent years may be the main reason. On account of this, many young people in our modern society have an open mind. Consequently, they are willing to accept new things. Secondly, a lot of people have become richer and richer. As a result, they can pay to do those kinds of things. There may be other reasons for it, but it is generally believed that the above mentioned reasons are commonly accepted.
As far as I am concerned, the spreading of foreign culture in our society is not a bad thing. But as a popular saying goes, everything has two sides. This phenomenon is no exception. My suggestion as to the best way to cope with the problem is as follows. On the one hand, people should take a proper attitude toward this phenomenon. On the other hand, our society is expected to appeal to the general public to resist its bad effect. I am sure that my opinion is both sound and well-grounded.
范文中的粗體部分稍做變更，是可以套用于任何圖畫作文的。光是這些句子就接近70詞。考試時如果寫160詞，就只需自己寫90詞了。如果對自己的寫作很沒有把握，上文可以套用的句子更多。例如，第二段末的 “There may be other reasons for it, but it is generally believed that the above mentioned reasons are commonly accepted.”。
綜上所述，套話可以用，但不能通篇都是套話。它們主要用于提示文章的結構，圖畫的具體內容與含義應該用自己的話進行簡練準確的敘述，這里的敘述也是最能顯示你的寫作水平的地方，不妨獨運匠心。
