本题要求考生根据所提供的图画写一篇160 ~ 200词的文章。文章必须包括三个方面：1)简单描述图片；2)解释图片的含义；3)发表自己的评论。
在作文的第一部分中，考生应该描述图画：图中一个瓶子被打翻了，瓶中的液体流出了一半。两个人看见了这一幕后，表情各不相同。一个很沮丧地说：“全完了！”；另一个开心地说：“幸好还剩点儿。”
在第二部分中，考生应该解释图画的含义：两个人的不同表情实际上表明了两种不同的心态，即他们看待事物的视角不同，一个悲观，另一个乐观。一个只看到了事物的阴暗面，另一个则看到了事物的光明面。
在第三部分中，考生应该对这种现象进行评论：这幅图给我们留下了这样一种思考―我们应该怎样看待生活？应该以怎样的态度面对人生？

In the picture, a bottle falls to the ground and a liquid spills out. Two men witness the accident and respond differently to it. One sadly holds his head with his hand, saying, “Everything is spoiled!” The other gladly notices the half of the oil that still remains in the bottle and rushes to pick it up, saying, “Fortunately, we still have some left。”
The picture is not just showing us a small accident, but it intends to tell us a matter of greater significance. The two men’s different responses to the accident actually show two different attitudes to life, or two different perspectives to view tragedy in life。
Life is full of ups and downs, which are part of one’s life journey in this world. The question is how we are going to take life’s pains or tragedies. Pessimists feel like the end of the world is coming, while optimists believe they can overcome them and become stronger. A girl student jumped from a tall building after she was abandoned by her boyfriend. A mother drowned her two mentally-handicapped twin sons because she could not see the end of her own suffering. While we are sympathetic for these unfortunate people, we sigh for their desperate actions.
No one’s life is plain sailing. But hard labour will make a person physically strong; hardships will make a person mentally strong. We sigh because one man did not see the bright side of life, “the half of the liquid that still remains”. The girl student did not understand that life could begin anew and happiness could be achieved elsewhere. The mother did not realize that the society and the government were willing to offer help. If they were more optimistic, things could be different. If we are all optimistic, the world will be changed。
