Question

【題目】As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, and no cages either. It was obvious that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their bonds but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away. “Well,” trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the rope of the same size to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away.”

The man was amazed. These animals can break free from their bonds at any time, but because they believe they can’t, they are stuck right where they are.

Answer 1

【答案】Some adult elephants, which could have easily broken away from the chains which confine them, chose to remain where they were. This is largely due to their conditioned thinking pattern, which were formed from their early age.(37 words)

The passage casts spotlight on the moral that once the fixed thinking pattern is deeply rooted in one's mind, it becomes extremely challenging for one to make any positive changes to the circumstances. Ridiculous as it may sound, it is not uncommon for us to see some vivid examples around. For instance, some of us invariably blame our failure in exams on our poor genes inherited from our parents, thus never adopting any effective approaches to polish up this subject.(80 words)

To eliminate this vicious thinking pattern, I should determinedly resort to my teachers or parents for help. I will talk my problems through and seek their suggestions. Once finding out the underlying reasons for my fixed thinking pattern, I will think out of the box and see things from a different angle.(51 words)

【解析】文章要求首先根據所講故事用30個詞概括故事大意，這需要我們看懂故事的內容，找到文章要點，抓住本質。比如故事中為什么大象為什么不逃脫小小的繩子，關鍵是思維觀念的束縛，這一點必須要點出來。第二步要求用120詞談談對此的看法，內容包括：1.這個故事有什么寓意?要求剖析故事本質及導致的原因，根植內心的思維模式或道德準則等，可結合實際例子進行更詳細的描述，更全面的說明。2.你如何解決這樣的問題？結合自己實際寫出解決辦法，如向父母家長尋求幫助，發(fā)現問題及時解決，跳出固定的思維框架多角度看問題等。

寫作時一定要通過現象看清本質，觀點要明確。還要注意敘述的條理性。

【亮點說明】本文要點全面，觀點明確，并使用高級句型和高級詞匯，如定語從句which could have easily broken away from the chains which confine them；which were formed from their early age. 和that once the fixed thinking pattern。倒裝句Ridiculous as it may sound，不定式to eliminate this vicious thinking pattern；詞語due to，casts spotlight on，invariably，resort to等。
