“点评:”

这是一篇根据图画内容展开的记叙文。这组图共四幅图画,好似连环画一样。这种题型在历年的高考中多次出现,如1992年、1993年、1997年、1998年和2000年连续五次的高考书面表达。这类作文往往都是按时间顺序排列的连环图画,或讲述故事,或叙述事件。

本篇作文紧扣画题,并从每幅图画的全貌、背景、人物、细节等方面去分析,很好地把握了四幅图画所提供的信息以及它们之间的内在联系,按照画面内容、以时间为线索(in autumn, in winter, spring),根据提示词父亲、儿子、长个子、钉子,对整件事进行了生动的记叙。整篇文章结构紧凑、行文流畅,过渡自然,took, knocked, brought … again, wonder等词的使用使语言更加生动、有趣。资料来源:英语作文高分必背丛书:高考/李华田主编,武汉大学出版社,2005
