图片
The above pictures reveal two fathers’ distinctly different parenting methods. In one picture, the father is urging his son to study hard while relaxing himself, with his eyes fixed on the TV. In the other picture, both the father and his son concentrate on their study. The caption under the cartoon reads: “It is better to set an example than merely make demands”.
上面的图片揭示了两位父亲截然不同的育儿方法。在一张照片中，父亲一边敦促儿子努力学习，一边放松自己，眼睛盯着电视看娱乐节目。在另一张照片中，父亲和他的儿子都专注于学习。漫画下方的标题是：“与其只提要求，不如做个榜样”。
What the above pictures intend to illustrate is that parents can better teach children by example 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 bringing up their children since they are the role models kids look to for guidance, especially in their formative years. When it comes to instructing and influencing kids, action tends to speak louder than words.
上图想说明的道理是，父母在日常生活中应该以身作则，这比口头教学更能教育孩子。俗话说，一个好的例子是最好的说服方式。毫无疑问，父母在抚养孩子方面发挥着至关重要的作用，因为他们是孩子学习的榜样，尤其是在他们的成长阶段。在指导和影响孩子方面，行动往往胜于雄辩。
Therefore, in my opinion, it is parental duty for adults to set examples 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.
因此，在我看来，成年人有责任为孩子树立榜样。只有大人认真实践他们所倡导的，孩子们才能以他们为榜样。这样，孩子们也可以享受更好的家庭氛围，得到更好的管教。
