题目要求

根据所给图画写一篇约200词的英语作文。文章需要包含三个部分：

  1. 描述图画内容。
  2. 阐释图画的寓意。
  3. 举例论证你的观点。

写作方向

这篇作文属于考研英语中典型的图画作文，主题为哲理思辨类。

图画描述： 图画中心是一个正在跑步的年轻人，他面带笑容，冲过了终点线。然而，这条写着“终点”的线，同时也是一条标有前行箭头和“起点”字样的起跑线。图画下方的文字点明了主题：“终点又是新起点”。

写作方向： 本文的核心主旨是“终点即是起点”，强调人生和事业是一个不断前进、永不止步的过程。在写作时，应遵循以下结构：

  1. 第一段：简要描述图画。说明一个运动员在冲过终点线的同时，也踏上了新的起跑线，点出“终点即是起点”的表面现象。
  2. 第二段：深入阐释寓意。指出图画象征着人生中的任何成就都不是最终的结局，而是一个新阶段的开始。成功不应带来骄傲自满，而应成为继续奋斗的动力。这是一种积极向上、不断进取的人生态度。
  3. 第三段：举例论证并总结。可以从学术、职业或个人成长等方面举例。例如，大学毕业是学习生涯的终点，但也是职业生涯的起点。最后，重申观点，我们应将每一次成功视为一个新的起点，去迎接新的挑战，实现持续的自我超越。

作文

As is vividly depicted in the drawing, a young athlete, with a broad smile of triumph on his face, is crossing the finish line of a race. However, what is particularly striking is that the line he is crossing, marked as the “finish line” in Chinese, simultaneously serves as the “starting point” for a new journey ahead. The caption below reinforces this idea, stating, “The finish line is also a new starting point.”

The drawing is not merely about a race; it carries a profound and thought-provoking message about life and success. It suggests that any achievement or the end of a journey is not a final destination, but rather the commencement of a new one. In our lives, reaching a goal should not be a reason for complacency. Instead, it should be regarded as a stepping stone for future endeavors. This philosophy encourages us to maintain a forward-looking perspective and never cease our efforts to improve ourselves and pursue higher goals.

This concept can be observed everywhere in our lives. Take university graduation as an example. While graduation marks the end of years of academic study, it also signifies the beginning of a professional career, which presents a new set of challenges and opportunities. Similarly, for a scientist, a groundbreaking discovery is not the end of research. Instead, it often opens up new questions and fields of inquiry, setting the stage for further exploration. Therefore, we should view every accomplishment not as a point to rest, but as a platform to aim higher, ensuring continuous progress and leading a more fulfilling life.
