In the first picture, the father is urging his son to study hard while he is just relaxing himself, with his eyes fixed on the TV set. In the second picture, both the father and his son are concentrating on their study. The caption under the cartoon reads: “It is better to set an example than merely make demands”. What the above pictures intend to illustrate is that parents can better teach children by example rather than verbal instruction in their daily life. As an old saying goes, a good example is the best way of persuasion. There is no doubt that parents play a vital role in the bringing up of their children since they are the role models kids look to for guidance, especially in their formative years成长阶段).When it comes to instructing and influencing kids, action tends to speak louder than words. Therefore, in my opinion, it is parental duty for adults to set an example for children. Only when adults earnestly practice what they advocate can children follow their example. This way, children can also enjoy better family atmosphere and get better disciplined. 另附What is symbolically象征性地 depicted in the caricatures漫画, there emerge two circumstances, carrying sharp contrast implications. In the first drawing, a father is watching a football match on the sofa who is at the same time supervising his son to finish homework. It is not difficult to observe that his son wears frowned expression on his face. On the contrary, the second portrayal depicts a father is working just besides his son, who is doing his assignment. The objective of the drawer is to demonstrate that utmost significance should be attached to the phenomenon that setting proper examples has exerted great impact on the growth of the younger generation in China at present. It is widely acknowledged that it is the compelling obligation for the parents to help their kids to form an appropriate value about the world and the life, which carries overwhelmingly precious connotation to the sound development on the younger generation. Simultaneously, there is no denying that the most rational method for adults to educate their adolescents is to set themselves a good example to their teenagers rather than making perpetual requirements, which is less persuasive compared with the actions. Accordingly, it is vital for us to derive positive implication from these thought provoking drawings. On the one hand, we can frequently use them to enlighten the parents to be more advisable in educate their children. On the other hand, parents should attach more emphasis on setting excellent models for their juveniles. Only by doing so, can we effectively ensure a promising prospect for the adolescents.
