【参考范文】
In the drawing, a girl carries a spade with a question where the water is in mind after digging out several holes futilely. As a matter of fact, the water is just beneath the holes the girl has dug out, but the girl stopped digging after several trials without success. How thought-provoking the drawing conveys!
We can see from the drawing that if the girl hasn’t given up digging after several futile trials, the scenery will be different. Pitifully, the girl didn’t persevere to the end.There is a maxim going like that: perseverance means victory. That is to say, it is perseverance that brings us to success. There are numerous examples in history. Take Edison, the American inventor, as an instance. Despite the failure of trying more than six thousand materials, he didn’t give up. Instead, he persevered until he found the right material to make light bulbs. If he didn’t persevere in his experiments after over six thousand failures, the invention of light bulbs would be postponed many years or longer.
Do we often give up after many times of failures? If yes, we are just like the hole-digging girl; if no, congratulations to you. Just as the saying goes: constant dropping wears the stone, please make perseverance in what deserves to be done.

【参考译文】
在这幅图画中,一个女孩扛着一把铁锹,在挖了几个坑以后,没有见到水,在想水在哪儿呢?事实上,水就在女孩挖的坑的下面,但是这个女孩在挖了几个坑却没见到水后停止了继续挖下去。这幅画传递的信息很是发人深省啊!
从图画中,我们可以看出如果这个女孩在几次失败以后,没有放弃继续挖下去的话,将会是另一番景象。令人可惜的是,这个女孩并没有坚持到底。格言“坚持就是胜利”的意思是坚持带我们走向成功。历史上的例子比比皆是。以美国发明家爱迪生为例。尽管在试验了6000多种材料后都失败了,但是他没有放弃。相反,他坚持下来了,直到找到制做电灯泡的合适材料。如果在多达6000次失败后,他没有坚持实验,电灯泡的发明会推迟很多年甚至更长时间。
我们在生活中在经历了多次失败后是不是经常放弃呢?如果是的话,我们就像这个挖坑的女孩,如果不是的话,那恭喜你。正如一句谚语所说:滴水石穿,所以请在值得做的事情上坚持下去。
