本文可以分为三段来写。第一段对图画进行描述，引入谈论的问题。第二段对该现象进行分析。第三段作总结。I believe that nobody will ever forget the two pictures once he sees them: the first one depicts four students who come to a school with different ideas and opinions, and the second one shows that upon graduation, they have exactly the same pattern of thinking after training and education. The pictures are the manifestation of real happenings in many schools home and aboard. What brings about this disheartening result as we are investing more and more on education at different levels? My own answer to this question can be boiled down to only one word: standard.
Let me explain it for you from two perspectives. On the one hand, many school teachers and administrators are under that great pressure of examinations with uniform criteria, such as the college entrance examination and the college English test. Educators, instead of concentrating on inspiring creativity, devoted themselves to finding out the hidden patterns of examinations. On the other hand, many other examinations are issued by teachers themselves, and they are far too random, and crosscomparison has been made impossible in many cases. When tuition and fees are soaring year after year, many schools establish the system of students choosing their teachers. If a teacher is strict with their students, he will not be chosen by any student later and he may even lose his job afterwards. The most possible outcome is that every time he looses the standard a little bit, and after several years, students only learn the most fundamental facts of a subject.
German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche wrote in The Dawn, "The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently." The school is not a big factory with an assembly line called "pattern education", and students should not be products of this kind of education who think and act as taught.第一段先描述图画。之后说这是国内外许多学校的真实写照。而后提出问题：在各层次教育投资力度加大的今天，为何还会导致这种令人沮丧的结果呢？该段最后一句直接作答：可归结为一个词--标准。
第二段分为两点来说。第一点说许多老师和行政管理人员处在具有统一标准的考试的重压之下，所以他们致力于寻找考试的规律，而非投入精力注重如何激发学生的创造性。第二点说，除此之外的许多考试是教师自己出题，太过随意，各种横向比较也就不可能了。随着学杂费的猛增，许多学校建立了学生挑选老师的制度。如果老师对学生要求太严格，可能就没有学生选他，他甚至会因此失去工作。最可能的结果就是他每次降低一点标准，而几年后，学生就只学最基本的知识了。大家想想，没有推衍，没有讨论，不经实地调查写成的论文，只有一次关于基础知识的考试，那学生们的思想能不趋同吗？
最后一段是结语，共三句话。第一句话引用德国哲学家尼采的话："毁掉一个年轻人最好的方法是教导他们尊重想法相同的而不是想法不同的人。"学校不是拥有"模式教育"流水线的大工厂，而学生也不应该成为这种教育的产品，像被教的那样去思考和行动。 这篇文章谈论的是一个很重要的问题--模式化教育。该文第二段对这种现象进行了剖析。如果篇幅允许，可以增加第三段，写改善或解决该问题的办法，而将结论放在第四段。
37Study the following pictures carefully and write an essay in which you should:
1. describe the pictures;
2. interpret the meaning of the pictures;
3. make your comments.
You should write 160~200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.
这是一个非常好的题目，我们可以这样来构思：描述图表--分析其中道理--推广到生活中--采取行动。In the first picture, a young girl poured a whole barrel of water on a little flower in order to help it grow more quickly. In the second picture, the flower withered before long, and the child was crying-she wondered why things should be that way.
Trees need water to grow up, and flowers need water to bloom. But too much water can no longer be helpful-it can only hinder their growth and even kill them. Whenever we water trees or flowers, we should do it according to the natural principle.
Actually, whenever we take action in our daily life, we should follow the law of nature. It is understandable for us to dream of quick success and then take immediate actions to turn it into reality, but we should not be too hasty. If we are always in a hurry, quality often suffers, making it more difficult for us to attain the aim.
Up until now, we come to understand the meaning of the old saying "Haste makes waste" better. We should break our great plan into small parts, analyze the feature of each part and carry it out step by step-when we follow the natural pace of development, success will soon be in our hands. 本文共分为四段。第一段描述两幅图画，突出了其中的对比。第二段分三句来阐述画中的道理。前两句话说树与花都需要水，但过多的水不但无益，反倒有害。最后一句话说浇水要符合自然规律。第三段共三句话。第一句说在日常生活中，我们应遵守自然规律。第二句说梦想快速成功然后立即采取行动是可以理解的，但是不能太着急。第三句话说如果总是匆匆忙忙，质量肯定会受影响，达到目的就更难了。最后一段两句话，第一句话说我们最终更好地理解了"欲速则不达"这句话。第二句话说了我们正确的做法--将计划拆分成小的部分，分析每部分的特点，而后一步步地付诸实施。该文由浅入深，环环相扣，渐入佳境，源自宏观上全局的安排和微观上语言的处理。从分析画本身的道理，说到我们的日常生活，再到我们处事的具体做法，非常自然，也使人感到亲切。
在语言上，首段采用了两句简洁的描述，突出显示了对比。次段首句采用的是平行结构。次句用破折号表示递进。第三段中第二句采用了表转折的并列句，第三句采用了条件状语从句。第四段第二句采用了平行的动宾词组，而后使用破折号，最后使用了时间状语从句。
