The importance of doing small things

From the carton, we can clearly see that the boy is worried about disposing of nuclear waste, while his father tells him to empty the dustbin first. This carton reminds me of a Chinese saying: If you don't clean the room(solve your problems), then how can you control the world. However, most people always attach great importance to something big, but neglect small things.

In my opinion, it is necessary and important to do small things. On the one hand, doing small things well helps us to develop good habits, which set a good foundation for our future development. There is no doubt that one of the greatest differences between success and failure is the importance placed on little things. On the other hand, the big is the little. If something needs to be done, it is big. No matter what kinds of task, if it is worth doing, it can be big.

Taking all these into account, we can easily notice that it is reasonable to do small things before big ones. So before doing important things, let’s empty our dustbin first! 
　　【点评】
　　本次四级作文是一篇图画作文，大家对于这样的作文形式应该不会陌生吧，历年考题中也曾出现过类似题型，所以这也算老生常谈了。
　　图画作文题目怎么写呢？首先要确立文章的基本思想，这是最重要的。我们要确定图画给我们传达的是一个什么样的信息。本次作文的重点就在这一句话”the importance of doing small things before undertaking something big”。从图画中男孩与父亲的对话中我们基本可以判断出出题人的初衷是想说在做大事情之前要先做好小事情，正好对应了中国的一句谚语：一屋不扫何以扫天下。基本思想确立以后我们就可以按套路出牌了。
　　第一段， 我们首先用一两句话对图片做一个简洁的描述，然后总体陈述大多数人的做法；
　　第二段， 第二段总起句表明自己的观点，观点一定要陈述清楚，不能含糊。说明doing small things 非常重要，然后就这一观点分别详述原因，one the one hand,… one the other hand…；
　　第三段， 总结，一句话概括刚才所支持的观点或原因，最后一句话考生可以照应开篇，也可以表决心，比如I decide to …..。
