As is graphically depicted in the cartoon, a young girl istalking with her
mother. She says ironically, “Good news mom! I wasaccepted to the college of
your choice!” Then, her mother smilesand seems content with this result.
Apparently, the cartoon aims toreveal the fact that a majority of modern parents
play anincreasingly negative role in their children’s growth.
第一段三句话，描写图中大体现象、细节描写对话内容和人物反应、揭示图画的目的。
There are several possible reasons accountable for thisphenomenon(中心句). To
begin with, family in growing numbers has onlyone child; therefore, parents
oftentimes focus all their attentionson that child and exert much pressure on
him or her(原因一). Moreover,numerous parents intend to realize their unfulfilled
dreams byletting their children learn what they failed to learn and applyfor the
college by which they failed to be accepted, because theyhave become richer and
they believe that they have the power tomake what they wanted and want come true
now(原因二). For instance, myuncle used to be a poor man and his dream that one day
he wouldbecome a violinist was broken because of lack of money. But he madea
fortune by selling coals, and then forced his son, my youngerbrother to practice
playing violin. My brother was a huge fan ofsports, but now he has to play
violin everyday unwillingly andofter quarrels with
theirparents(举例：原来-然后-结局).
To sum up, it is unreasonable for parents to control theirchildren’s
life(总结句). In order to help them grow happily andhealthily, parents are supposed
to communicate with their kidsabout what they are really interested
in(建议一，目的句型). Meanwhile, itis about time that parents let their kids make their
ownchoices(建议二，“是时候”句型). Only in these ways will children grow in
apsychologically happy environment and realize their owndreams.
