生对这个偶像则毫无了解,或者没有什么感觉。当然,醉翁之意不在酒,按照历年出题模式的陷阱,我们是不能就图论图的。"小贝"只是个象征而已,他代表了风靡世界的各类明星和青春偶像。图片中的青年脸上写字也好,花钱做发型也好,无非代表了当今数量庞大的"追星族"。

  2005年的社会热点中,家庭关系、道德素质、商品房、私家车、环保、网络科技、大学生就业仍然是备考重点。而不可忽略的则是家喻户晓的蒙牛酸酸乳"超级女生"大赛,一年中追星话题掀起了各类媒体争论的热浪,成为最受国人关注的热点。平民女孩一夜之间成为巨星偶像,各大城市的追星大军疯狂程度令世界瞩目。所以命题的意图也就清晰起来,借世界级偶像贝克汉姆,当然这个人也可以是布拉德.皮特或者李宇春、张靓颖,实际影射了国内愈演愈烈的追星过激现象,让青年人深刻反思追星的利与弊,以及以何种态度来面对自己的人生。轻松的图片却暗示了严肃话题,这正是考研写作久盛不衰的命题规律。

  As is vividly depicted in the photos above, Beckham, the handsome British football superstar, is enjoying a striking popularity among young people. In the first photo, Beckham’s name appears on a young man’s face. The caption indicates that worship for the idol is written on the face. In the second photo, this young man is doing Beckham’s chic hairstyle in a barbershop. We are informed that he is spending 300 yuan imitating his idol’s hairdo.

  Undoubtedly, the photos have subtly reflected the social phenomenon that idol worship is prevalent among the youth nowadays. Beckham represents the image of sport hero whose handsome appearance and unparalleled football skills are passionately adored by all the sports fans. Likewise, several teenage girls won their fame overnight in The 2005 Super Girl Contest in China, which provoked nationwide noisy debates on the value and harm of admiring these idols. Generally speaking, young people are inclined to adore the people who excel in appearance, intelligence or talent.

  In my opinion, idol worship, the thought-provoking social phenomenon, is a double-edged sword which can deeply influence the growth of young people. If we simply worship the idols by imitating their hairstyles or pursuing fashions unreasonably, the obsession will certainly waste us a great deal of money or time, endangering the efficiency of our work. On the contrary, we will lead a positive and fruitful life if we endeavor to improve ourselves by bridging the gap between our models and us. Therefore, the latter attitude should be adopted to direct our way of life.

【妙笔生花】

  按照提纲格局,文章顺理成章分为三段进行描述和议论。第一段为传统的图画描述段,两张照片都不是很清楚,好在下面有文字说明。刚刚接触照片,我们感觉意外,同时在思索该如何把贝克汉姆和隐含主题挂钩。稍加思考就要开始描述两张照片的内容,当然,细枝末节可以忽略,因为要求我们进行briefly描述,但提示中的内容必须提到。照片中体现出了球星强大的影响力,在此用 "striking popularity"强调。而年轻人所做的,正是让理发师做出典型的小贝式"chic hairstyle"并且模仿偶像的"hairdo"。本段中考生最大的挑战来自于"偶像崇拜"的英文表达-"idol worship".

  第二段要求阐释照片所揭示的社会现象。社会现象可以一针见血地提出来,即社会上非常普遍的(prevalent)偶像崇拜,即追星现象。紧接着举两例说明,贝克汉姆代表了体育方面的偶像,其招牌是英俊的外表和高超的球技。当然,还要结合中国现实提一下典型的超级女生大赛,超女成功后都成为巨星偶像,引起了疯狂的追逐和炒做。这两个例子都证明一点,年轻人容易对在外表、才华和特长方面超出自己的人产生崇拜。注意在第二段中采用的精彩表达: "subtly reflected"、"handsome appearance"、"unparalleled skills"、"passionately adored"、"won their fame overnight"、"provoked nationwide noisy debates"、"are inclined to"、"excel in"。

  解释完社会现象,说明其普遍存在,最后进行褒贬。第三段是传统的议论段,针对偶像崇拜现象我们可以持完全否定态度,但这种态度在现实中确实不可行。所以我们在段首句后通过两个层面,分别探讨崇拜的利与弊。如果只是非理性的模仿和追逐,必定浪费大量时间和金钱,耽误工作,这种态度不可取。当然,偶像崇拜也有积极的一面,如果从偶像身上发现我们所不具备的,通过努力而去弥补差距,我们的人生旧会有很大的进步,态度决定了利与弊。相比之下,我们宁愿选择积极而有收获的方式,这样才能指引我们正确的生活方向。最后一段在把偶像崇拜比作"double-edged sword"之后,采用了两类不同的语言暗示褒贬,错误的态度,出现了 "obsession"、"endanger"的表达,而积极的态度,则用"positive"、"fruitful"和"endeavor"来强调。当然,弥补差距 "bridge the gap"用得也很精彩。两种态度,先破后立,对社会现象并非偏激对待,而是客观冷静地分析利弊,再提出建议,结构布局十分得当。
