One day when I was about to play football, I saw Mother was taking a lot of dirty clothes to wash and a bucket to carry water. I thought Mother was very tired, so I decided to help her wash clothes. While I was doing the washing, Li Ming came and asked me to play football with him. I refused him and told him that I would help Mother finish the housework first. When I got the housework done, I was so tired that I was sweating all over. When Mother came back home, she found I had washed all the dirty clothes and said that I was a good child. I felt very happy.

题目分析：本文属于看图作文。首先要简单描述图画内容，小男孩发现妈妈很累，一直都在做家务，拒绝了小朋友踢球的邀请，主动帮助妈妈做家务，让妈妈感觉很欣慰。在描述为图文以后，要做出评论，表扬小男孩的做法，呼吁我们都要向他学习，分担父母的家务。要求考生在保证内容要点全部概括的基础上可以充分发挥自己的想象，进而用自己的语言来表达某种观点或看法，增添了写作的灵活性，同时能较好地考查考生的想象能力和英语语言表达能力。

点评：看图作文要求考生将画面所包含的有效信息直接运用英语思维转换成英语语言文字，再根据这些要点谋篇布局。要求考生把看到的图画用文字表达出来，除了能表达清楚图画中的信息外，考生还需要根据词数要求，适当拓展并发挥想象，从而使文章的叙述不单调。如果是记叙文类的写作素材，考生要注意故事的时间、地点、人物、事件的起因、过程、结果这六个要素；如果是说明文或议论文，考生则首先要对图画的内容进行描述，然后围绕图画的信息进行说明或议论。此时考生一定要注意把握图画的中心思想，写出图画要反映的内容。
