话题作文
父母养育了我们，给了我们一切，因此孝敬父母既有天经地义之理，又是我们中华民族的传统美德，也符合现在国家倡导的“建立和谐社会”的精神。请你以此为话题，根据下图提示的内容，写一篇120~150个词的短文，就“如何孝敬父母，创建和谐家庭”发表自己的观点和看法，参加某英语报社组织的“道德论坛”栏目。提示词汇：和谐社会harmonious society 图略
写作指导
题目要求根据图画内容和文字提示信息，就“如何孝敬父母，创建和谐家庭”发表自己的观点和看法，属于描述加评论类文章。
仔细审题，获取表达信息；父母对我们的恩惠以及孝敬父母的原因和社会背景（从文字提示获得该信息）：孝敬父母，满足他们物质和精神需求，陪伴父母，给予尊敬和照顾（从图画以及图画中的文字提示获得）；个人的观点和看法（可以和第二部分结合起来，属于个人发挥的内容），也包括“孝敬父母”的重大意义。
文章的时态可以用现在时态，因为话题为“孝敬父母”，其主语当然为第一人称了，不过可以使用复数，增强号召力和文章的亲和力。
佳作欣赏
Parents give us life and bring us up with their hard work, and we should give them our respect and love in return, which is also the traditional virtue for our Chinese nation. Now our government calls on us to build harmonious society, including the building harmonious families.
In my opinion, parents should love and support their children, and they should also be loved and taken good care of by their children, especially when they are old. As we can see in the picture above, parents should be supplied with not only food and clothing, they also need more understanding and care. We should spare some time to accompany them no matter how busy we are, making them live a happier and more comfortable life in the rest of their life. Only in this way can we make more contributions to the building the whole society in our country.
