答案 The picture depicts an old man sitting alone in an empty room with nobody but a pot of flower companying him. What’s waiting for him is either to live alone or die alone. Obviously the cartoon demonstrates a social phenomenon, which is becoming more and more common nowadays. It tells people that what old people need is not only the material supporting from their children but also the humanistic concern and love. Today young people have been suffering the ever-increasing pressure. In the job market, they face more competition from new college graduates. In the family, they have financial pressure to support their parents and children. Besides, many young people want to fulfill what they dreamed and desperately overworked trying to achieve their goals. As a result, they have overlooked many things in their life such as their parents who can only live alone with nobody to talk with. It seems that young people have forgotten that paying respect for and taking care of the old people is their very responsibility. Since each of us plays a different role under different circumstances, we have to learn to keep a balance among different roles. If we care about our parents, no matter how busy we are, we are definitely able to find time to company them. Even if we live far away from our parents, we can contact them by telephone or mail. There are various means for us to show our concern and love to our parents. Now there is a call for young people to take good care of their elderly, which is a merit well-extolled in some Chinese-speaking countries and regions such as Singapore, Korea and Taiwan. The elder’s today is your future. 50 give your parents more concern and love and it can make you happier.
解析     本文是图画式现象解释型作文。图中有一个老人独自坐在沙发上，茶几上有一盆花。画面左上方有几个字"空巢老人，要么孤独地活着，要么孤独地死去"。显然，这里是要求对空巢现象做出解释。从画面可以看出老人的物质生活尚可，但精神寥落，可见比起物质生活来说，老人更需要精神上的关爱。接下来可以阐明空巢现象产生的原因：子女们工作压力大，生活压力大，自我要求高。这导致许多青年人忽视了老年人的需求。但归根结底还是由于没有正确认识到如何善待父母所致，因此青年人应该转变观念，继承中华民族尊老爱老的美德，善待父母，这样生活才会幸福。
