It is symbolically illustrated in the cartoon that a striker is preparing to shoot at the goal defended by a goalkeeper on a football field. In the goalkeeper’s mind, he is so much smaller than he actually is that guarding the goal becomes a mission impossible. On the contrary, the giant guard seems to fill up the whole goal in the attacking player’s mind.
The purpose of the drawing is to show us that in the face of seemingly insurmountable challenges or predicament, possessing self-confidence is of utmost significance. Regardless of how much success one has had in school or at work, there are bound to be times when he or she will encounter difficulties and problems. It is at these critical times that his self-confidence, towards difficulty and life in general, eventually plays a crucial role in determining whether he can turn failure into victory.
I can think of no better illustration than the following one. Helen Keller was born deaf, dumb and blind, certainly nothing to give her self-confidence. Nevertheless, she went on to conquer her multiple handicaps to finally become a writer and lecturer, to become an inspiration to all. This case effectively clarifies that no matter what tasks we are confronted with, we should never overestimate the difficulties or underestimate our abilities.
首段图画描述共三句,总分结构。首句总体描述图画的三大要素:人物(前锋+守门员)、动作(射门+守门)、环境(足球场),使用了物称代词作形式主语、被动语态、主语从句、现在进行时和过去分词短语作后置定语。二三两句分别挖掘两幅小图的细节词、串连成句,并列结构。第二句描述守门员眼中任务艰巨、无法完成,出现了介词短语放在句首作状语、三次主系表结构、两个从句(比较状语从句、表语从句)。第三句描述在前锋眼中,对手强大、难以战胜。首段先后出现了 “it is symbolically illustrated that", "striker", "shoot at the goal", "defended by a goalkeeper", "mission impossible", "on the contrary", ’giant guard" 等精彩语言。
第二段意义阐释共三句,总分总结构。首句是主题句及全文的中心思想,点出图画的深层象征寓意:面对挑战应该充满自信,使用了两次主系表结构、不定式短语作表语、介词短语放在句首作状语、动名词短语作定语。二三两句进行正反论证,第二句进行让步,使用了介词短语放在句首作状语、宾语从句、现在完成时、主谓倒装、定语从句。第三句进行正面论证和小结,使用了强调句、介词短语作定语和宾语从句。第二段依次运用了 "the purpose of the drawing is to show us that", "in the face of", "challenges and predicament", "self-confidence", "is of utmost significance", "regardless of", "no matter how", "there are bound to be times when", "encounter difficulties and problems", "it is ...that", "critical", "eventually play a crucial role", "turn failure into victory"等精彩表达。
第三段举例论证共四句,总分总结构。首句承上启下进行过渡。二三两句举出海伦·凯勒的例子进行论证,具体生动,使用了过去时和平行排比结构。尾句进行小结,前后呼应,运用了让步状语从句。尾段先后出现了 "illustration", "deaf, dumb and blind", "conquer multiple handicaps", "inspiration", "this case effectively clarify that", "no matter what", "are confronted with", "overestimate", "underestimate" 等精彩语言。
