审题：
这道题目属于哲理类的题目，可以用多种方法来说明图中所阐述的道理，文章的安排也有多种可能性。我们可以采用一种比较独特的方式，先描述图表，在第二段中就所表达的内容进行提问，在第三段中以举例说明我们对该问题的理解和认识，最后在第四段做结。
Sample:
A miserable picture unfolds before our eyes: a flood has destroyed a whole city. We can imagine the loss of lives and property. Under the picture, there was a thoughtprovoking sentence: every drop of water says it is not responsible for the flood.
This picture inevitably invites a series of questions: then who is responsible for the flood? Who has demolished the houses? Who has drowned the children?
A good case in point is pollution. Twenty years ago, most rivers were so clean—the water was drinkable and so many people went swimming and fishing. Only two decades later, many of them became so polluted that we can no longer drink the water—fishes have died out and nobody ever swims in it or washes clothes by it. Every one of us never thinks the industrial waste or the living garbage we once damped into the river would cause so serious a result—today the harsh reality has become too hard to swallow.
Finally we realize that every drop of water actually is responsible for the flood. Only if every citizen takes on his responsibility as a member of a family, a nation and the world can all of us wish to have a more beautiful future.
点评：
第一段对图表和图下的文字进行描述。这一段使用了少用的句型A miserable picture unfolds before our eyes以深化看到图画后受到的震撼。而后加入了联想性的句子We can imagine the loss of lives and property，这是不多见的。然后描述了图下的一句话。
第二段创造性地连问了三个问题，与图下的文字针锋相对，又为第三段的论述做了充分的铺垫。三个问题中，第一个问题直接与上段末句形成对立，而后面两句则是呼应首段的次句，可谓环环相扣，联系紧密。
第三段共分四句，举了污染的例子。第一句是常用句型。第二句和第三句形成了鲜明的对比——二十年前的河流清澈，二十年后的却污染严重。最后一句是关键——倾倒工业废料、生活垃圾的人也没有想到会有如此严重的后果。
最后一段是结论段，共分两句。第一句话正好与图中的话相反，这是在论述后得到的结论。第二句话引申说——每个公民都要尽自己的责任，我们才能拥有美好的明天。
心得：
在说理的文章中，找到切入点是很重要的，所以很多时候要用到举例。一般说来，有多种例子可举，并不一定哪一种就是最好的。这时由于时间有限，不可太犹豫。本文中举了污染的例子，解答了第二段中的疑问，也直接引出了末段的结论，作用非常重要，请大家用心体会。
