1. 读懂题头要求 2) 写作步骤 2. 分析图片 3. 构建作文框架 4. 开始写作 3）写作框架：三段式
第一段：图画描述（细节描写） （背诵图片描述通用句型）
这是题目中明确要求的(a brief description of the picture)，所以你不描绘图画，或者是图画信息不全，扣分。描述的时候，你要把学生提问的那句话写出来，把老师教课的动作写出来，以及老师听到学生挑衅性的提问之后的表情，也要写出来。
第二步：分析原因或利弊等（提炼图画的内涵） （一、二、三列举原因）
孩子对老师教的知识，确切地说，是对老师教授的基本知识、非实用性知识的一种质疑。所以，你可以在第二段分析一下原因：为什么学生，也就是现代人的代言，对这种不能马上用于工作的、带来回报的、理论性的基础指示和技能不懈？
第三步：重申主题的重要性和做法(总结和启发) （呼吁并列举一至两点重要性）
分析完了原因之后，你要回到主题，那就是我们不能忽视这些基本技能，要唤起大家对“基本技能的重要性”的认识。所以，这一段，你可以正面阐述为什么basic skills 如此的重要，就可以了。

第一段 描述图片 As is vividly depicted in the cartoon given above, we can observe that there are many students sitting in a classroom. ①When listening to the teacher, one of the students just interrupts the teacher and says “No offense, but by the time we’re in the job market, won’t that stuff be outdated?” ②Having heard this question, the teacher stops demonstrating the Multiplication Table and seems to be quite shocked and embarrassed。 第二段 分析原因、利弊或重要性 The cartoon informs us of the phenomenon that quite a few students undervalue the importance of learning basic skills these days. ①Firstly, confronted with fiercer competition from society and employment market, students are more focused on practical skills which can be applied in daily work immediately. ②Moreover, they also fears that the basic knowledge and skills they learn today will be outdated by the time they are in the job market。 段 第三段 重申主题的主要性、做法 However, no one can disclaim the importance of learning basic skills. ① On one hand, it enables us to lay a strong foundation for further learning and exploration. ②In other words, those who have mastered basic skills well are more likely to acquire other skills and knowledge with ease. ③ On the other hand, basic skills are equivalent to the first step of success, as an ancient Chinese saying goes, “ A road of thousand miles towards the success begins with the first step。” 第一段 描述现象 注意：图画类作文常用的开头句型 ① 图片细节一：学生在做什么（直接引用图片中的话）。 ② 图片细节二：老师的反应（动作、态度） 第二段 分析原因 主题句：注意套用句型，引出学生的态度：学习基本技能不重要。 ① 原因一：竞争激烈。 ② 原因二：过时 第三段 总结评述 主题句：重申主题的重要性 ① 重要性一：打下坚实基础 ② 进一步解释前一句： ③ 重要性二：成功的第一步 谚语：千里之行始于足下 需要背诵的通用句型： 一、 开头段：描述图画
