Part B 范文
The picture symbolically depicts how three sons and a daughter treat their old, helpless father. They each stand in a different corner of a football field in the middle of which is the old man who is crouching. The eldest son kicks out the father and the other children are prepared to ward him off. It is sad to see none of them is willing to receive their father.
The picture is thoughtprovoking, and what it illustrates is a common phenomenon in todays society: many grown-up children refuse to support their aging parents. They regard them as a burden to live with although it is their duty to support parents when they grow up. I think these children have betrayed their own conscience and therefore may subject themselves to social contempt and criticism.
It is no doubt that this phenomenon is becoming common in modern society, but it is not a good manner for young people to imitate. Most parents devote all their lives to bring up their children. They give their children everything they have just because of love and hope. It is against nature for us to shirk the responsibility of taking care of our parents when they are old. Rather, we have the duty to pay back their love by making their later years enjoyable and happy.
