Answer 1

Heart-to-Heart Talks with Parents
As is shown in the bar chart, children spend less time having heart-to-heart talks with their parents when they grow older. For example, while the 7-9 age group spends as many as 6 hours per week on average, the 16-18 age group spends only half the time.
There are two major reasons for this: both parents and children are too busy working or studying, and there aren’t many topics of common interest for them to talk about.
In my opinion, children should let their parents know more about what they are interested in. At the same time, parents should spend more time talking with their children and sharing opinions with them. Only in this way can they better understand each other

試題分析：這是一篇利用圖表的給材料作文。要求介紹不同年齡段孩子與父母談心的情況，并說明原因表達自己的觀點。
【亮點說明】這篇短文三方面介紹的都較完整，并應(yīng)用了大量的連接詞和豐富的句式，如For example, In my opinion，Only in this way can they better understand each other等。要想在寫作中能靈活運用短語和連詞需要平時的積累。
