【简析】
本次图画作文延续近几年的出题风格，涉及到两个人对待同一事物的态度差别。
本文只要涉及学习知识，就不算跑题，考生可以从积极/消极的学习态度、广泛汲取知识的重要性、专注学好本专业、建议听各种讲座、保持好奇心、勤于学习、学习知识提升综合素质、保持学习的自律、关于学习的选择等切入，均不算跑题。
【范文】
Such a cartoon, apparently, can be associated with two distinct attitudes towards learning. Why? Let us closely observe it. Beside a bulletin board, there is a girl, pointing at the board and commenting: "This lecture is not concerning our major and it is worthless to listen to it. " However, the other girl, with short hair and a hat, says: "It is definitely good to learn something!"
Successful figures, to my understanding, are characterized by their various merits, such as diligence, optimism, curiosity and positive attitude to learning. Nonetheless, in reality, a host of youngsters are reluctant to acquire knowledge or skills beyond their majors. As a matter of fact, this shortsighted behavior has constituted an obstacle that hinders young people's growth and progress in personal development. As a college student, I deem that it is of great necessity for us to gain various experience and competence, which may bring us power, arouse our passion for life and help us broaden our horizons.
Accordingly, the society as a whole should foster a positive atmosphere to educate and encourage teenagers to read diverse books and attend sorts of lectures if time and energy is available. Everyone should bear in mind that knowledge is power, treasure and the journey to a promising future.
【译文】
显然，这样一幅漫画能让我们想到两种截然不同的学习态度。为什么？让我们仔细观察一下图片。在一个布告栏旁，有一个女孩指着布告栏说：“这讲座与我们的专业无关，听也没用。”然而，另一个留着短发、戴着帽子的女孩说：“学点东西肯定很好呀！”
在我看来，成功人士突出特征就在于他们的各种优点，如勤奋、乐观、好奇和积极的学习态度。然而，在现实中，许多年轻人不愿意获得专业以外的知识或技能。事实上，这种短视的行为已经成为阻碍年轻人成长和个人发展进步的障碍。作为一名大学生，我认为获得各种经验和能力是非常必要的，这些经验和能力可以给我们带来力量，激发我们对生活的热情，帮助我们开阔视野。
因此，整个社会应该营造一种积极的氛围，教育和鼓励青少年在时间和精力允许的情况下阅读各种书籍和听各种讲座。每个人都应该记住，知识是力量、是财富、是通往光明未来的道路。

Write an essay based on the chart below. In your writing, you should
1) interpret the chart, and
2) give your comments.
You should write about 150 words on the ANSWER SHEET. (15 points)
【简析】
本次图表作文考察数据的变化，难点在于很多同学不会写“快递”、“业务量”等汉语表达对应的英文词汇。如果只是主题词不会写，其他部分表述正确，并不会导致低分。
另外，不少同学“十亿”（billion）没写出来，还有同学“元”（yuan）漏写，会略微影响得分（1-2分）。整体语言质量是关键，小错对全局影响一般不大。
【范文】
This is a column chart, which clearly illustrates the striking changes in business volume of express deliveries in China from 2018 to 2020. The total volume ascended remarkably, from 51 billion yuan in 2018 to 83 billion yuan in 2020. Meanwhile, the volume in rural areas showed a sharp increase, from 12 billion yuan to 30 billion yuan.
Such statistics above can be associated with the growing popularity of courier service in China. There are two reasons accounting for this phenomenon. For one thing, China, in recent years, was characterized by the boom and prosperity in economy, which enabled residents, including people in the countryside, to possess additional money to shop. For another, compared with the past years, more customers chose shopping online and thus, an increasing number of items and parcels were delivered to buyers.
As a senior who is preparing for the national entrance examination for postgraduates, I am busy with my academic pursuit and so I purchase books, clothes, shoes and comsmetics from the Internet. I deem that the service of SF is the best.
【译文】
这是一个柱状图，清楚地展示了2018年至2020年中国快递业务量的显著变化。快递业总量显著上升，从2018年的510亿元增到2020年的830亿元。与此同时，农村地区的交易量急剧增加，从120亿元增加到300亿元。
上述统计数据能让我们联想到中国快递服务的日益普及。有两个原因可解释这种现象。一方面，近年来，中国的经济繁荣，这使得包括农村居民在内的人们能够拥有更多钱购物。另一方面，与过去几年相比，更多的顾客选择在线购物，因此，越来越多的商品和包裹被快递给买家。
作为一名正在准备研究生入学考试的大四学生，我忙于学业，因此选择从互联网上购买书籍、衣服、鞋子和化妆品。我认为SF的服务是最好的。
一个同学说，自己的舍友看到了她买的这本小黄书，以为是鸡汤，结果打了自己的脸，拿起书竟然一口气读完了。不仅如此，还给闺蜜买了一本当礼物。
