Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing. In your essay, you should:

3) give your comments and suggest counter-measures.

You should write on ANSWER SHEET 2.

范文:

In this picture a man rudely opens a garbage can and violently throws all kinds of waste into it. However, the box is not an ordinary trash can, but is, as a matter of fact, the Earth. It is where survive, breed, and prosper. But as the drawing indicates, Earth does not receive an equal repayment. Quite the contrary, one of the biggest “gifts” humans return to Earth is an unbelievable amount of trash.

The picture purposefully points out a kind of pollution that arouses little public attention, that is, garbage. The past century has witnessed an unprecedented increase in garbage output, most of it technological products that are difficult to be decomposed through natural processes, such as plastics and glass. Furthermore, a recent report released that several major Chinese cities are already surrounded by circles of trash in the suburban areas, polluting air, water, and earth.

Hence, the issue of waste pollution needs to be addressed as one of the priorities that demand social efforts. Only through a holistic system of trash disposal can this problem be fully solved. Moreover, we should advocate a more frugal lifestyle so as to reduce the growing scale of waste pollution.

译文:

在该图中,一个男人粗鲁地打开一个垃圾箱、猛然地把各种垃圾往里倒。但是,这不是一个普通的垃圾箱,而实际上是地球,是人类生存、繁衍和发展的土地。可正如图中所表明的那样,地球却没有得到她应得的回报。相反,人类回复给地球的最大“礼物”之一就是数量惊人的垃圾。

这幅图意在指出一种没有得到足够公众关注的污染,即垃圾污染。过去的一个世纪见证了人类前所未有的垃圾生产,而大部分是来源于各种技术产品的垃圾,它们很难通过自然过程进行分解,比如塑料和玻璃。此外,最近的一则报道显示中国的几个主要城市的郊区几乎都被垃圾所包围,全方位地污染了空气、水源和土地。

因此,垃圾污染这一问题必须被看作是需要得到全社会努力解决的主要问题之一。只有通过一个全面的垃圾处理系统才能够充分解决这一问题。此外,我们应该提倡一种更加节俭的生活方式,以减小垃圾污染的增长规模。
