Dear Mr. Wang，
I am writing to inform you about my decision to resign from my current position. There are a few factors involved.
First of all， the salary has proved to be much lower than you originally promised. It's very difficult for me to support a large family. In addition， the office is located in the downtown area， yet I live in the suburbs， so it is exhausting for me to spend over three hours commuting every day. Most importantly， I feel rather disappointed and left out on the job itself as in the past two months. I was never given any really important responsibility.
Please consider of my resignation. I am sorry for any inconvenience caused to you.
Directions： Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing. In your essay， you should first describe the drawing， then interpret its meaning， and give your comment on it.
You should write neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. （20 points）

The picture is thought- provoking. What it illustrates is a common phenomenon in today's society： many grown-up children refuse to support their aging parents. While they enjoy a comfortable life， their parents are neglected and left alone to face poverty. As these elderly people have grown so physically weak that they are not capable of supporting themselves any longer. I think these children have betrayed their own conscience and therefore should be criticized by the society. [意义阐释段]
According to Chinese culture， to be kind to one's parents is the height of virtue. We owe so much to our parents in that they not only gave us life but have done so much in bringing us up. It is against nature for us to shirk the responsibility of taking care of our parents when they are old. Further more， we have the duty to pay back their love by making their later years enjoyable and happy. [建议措施段]
