答案 Despite the endless talk about building a harmonious society, the ill-treatment of senior citizens remains common. As is depicted in the cartoon, on the four sides of a football field stand four adult children, each of whom acts like a goalkeeper to ward off their helpless father. They all want to escape from their obligations towards their father. As for the reasons accountable for such a contemptible phenomenon, the following are the typical ones. For one thing, with the pace of life speeding up, adult children are overwhelmed by mountains of work. Busy schedules become a perfect excuse for them to shrink from filial responsibility, leaving their weak and helpless parents unattended. For another, owing to different values and outlooks on life, the gap between parents and children yawns so wide, which also contributes to the present situation. For whatever reason, this issue has become increasingly serious in China. Moral education does work, but don’t expect this to happen soon. Therefore, the best policy is to take punitive actions against elder abuse. Moreover, the authorities must seek more suitable approaches to elderly care in view of a rapidly aging population. Only through the combined efforts of the whole society can the senior citizens live in comfort in their old age.
解析     从画面内容不难看出，这是一场颇具讽刺意味的足球赛。图画运用比喻手法，将老父亲比作足球，将子女比作守门员，巧妙地揭示了一些子女不赡养老人这一社会热点问题。图中趾高气昂的子女和脆弱无助的父亲形成了鲜明对比，反映出当代大部分老人的家庭地位和生存现状。考生写作时可先对图画进行描述，进而揭示其背后的社会问题，分析根本原因，最后给出具体的解决措施。
    第一段：描述图画，点明主题——逃避赡养责任的现象趋于普遍。描述时可对四个子女的无情和老父亲的无助予以体现。
    第二段：承接一段，论述引发这一社会现象的原因，如：工作繁忙无暇顾及父母、两代人之间存在隔阂、赡养父母会带来经济压力等。
    第三段：总结评论。针对该现象提出解决措施，如：加强道德建设、寻求更多养老服务方式以及完善相关法规等。
