范文：​

The simple but educational photovividly depicts that an elderly mother received a telephone call, which successfully attracts our attention. After a closer watch, we can find that the so-called “celebrating Mother’s Day” is something so formal because her children tell her to prepare the dinner for them. Obviously, what the drawing has subtly conveyed should be given more concern.

Filial piety has always been the traditional virtue of Chinese culture for thousands of years. Respectingour parents is the first priority. However, ridiculous as it is, the phenomenon in the picture is not infrequent in today’s society. For one thing, enormous economic development brings not only wealth, but also public’s obsession for material possessions. They only care about individual gain and loss, which undermine the once sacred bond between parents and children. For another, people seem to be fond of boasting of how they abide by traditions through holding grand meals for their parents. As a matter of fact, some even compete about the extravagance of the event.

I argue that those who behave as the picture miss the essence and profound values of our traditions. Filial piety should not be expressed by means of superficial “performance”, but by ways of children’s genuine care and love for their parents. Thinking about how parents took care of us when we were babies in cradles, we should realize that they all need due attention when aging. Piety is the foundation of all virtues.
