    人口的爆炸性增長(zhǎng)
     Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing. In your essay, you should:
    1) describe the drawing briefly,
    2) explain its intended meaning, and then
    3) state your point of view.
    You should write on ANSWER SHEET 2.
    范文:
    Basically, what we see in this cartoon is a woman pushing six floors of baby cradles on an urban street against the background of two skyscrapers. The piled-up cradles interestingly echo the huge buildings with tens of floors: the cradles are occupied by babies while we can imagine those buildings are filled with crowds of adults.
    We can deduce from this picture that the artist is trying to attract our attention to the present exploding world population. The striking point is that while the population growth is almost out of control, the space for humans to live is increasingly circumscribed. As a result, owning a house, which was very ordinary centuries ago, becomes a luxury nowadays because only wealthy people can afford the rocketing price of land. In contrast, common households have to cram into small apartments inside large buildings that are alignned close to each other.
    The simple picture is a wake-up call for the whole human race. While we strive for better living standards, the overgrowing population tend offsets our efforts by demanding more living space and resources. Hence, mankind should cooperate worldwide to control population by effective measures, in order to secure the prosperity of our future on this planet.
    譯文:
    我們?cè)谶@幅漫畫中看到一個(gè)女人推著有六層?jì)雰簱u籃的推車在一條城市的大街上走著,背景是兩座摩天大樓。有趣的是,疊起來(lái)的搖籃與那些有著幾十層樓的大廈相呼應(yīng),搖籃里面躺著許多嬰兒,而同時(shí)我們可以想象大樓里面擠滿了成年人。
    我們可以從畫中推論作畫者的意圖在于使人們更加關(guān)注目前世界人口的爆炸性增長(zhǎng)。其中令人注意的一點(diǎn)是,隨著人口增長(zhǎng)的失控,人類的生存空間也更加受到了限制。因此,雖然擁有一座房子在幾個(gè)世紀(jì)以前是非常普遍的現(xiàn)象,但是現(xiàn)在由于地價(jià)昂貴,價(jià)格飛漲的房子變成了有錢人才買得起的奢侈品。相反,普通家庭擠進(jìn)大樓的小套公寓中,這些大樓也都是一幢緊挨著另一幢。
    這幅簡(jiǎn)單的圖畫給人類敲響了警鐘。雖然我們努力地提高生活水平,但是過(guò)度增長(zhǎng)的人口對(duì)于空間和資源的需求卻抵消了我們的努力。因此,人類應(yīng)該進(jìn)行全球范圍內(nèi)的合作,通過(guò)有效的措施來(lái)控制人口,從而保證我們?cè)谶@個(gè)星球上的美好未來(lái)。

    人無(wú)限吃有限
    (4) Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing. In your essay, you should:
    1) describe the drawing briefly,
    2) explain its intended meaning, and then

    無(wú)限吃有限——畫世界人口盲目增長(zhǎng)
    范文:
    It is a very alarming cartoon, in which hundreds of new-born babies are crying for food but there are only two bowls of porridge available. The babies represent human population while the porridge symbolizes global resources, as indicated by the caption. The drawing aims to alarm us that resources on Earth are far from enough to sustain our exploding population.
    This message is very true. The 20th century had not only witnessed a huge hike in population, but also the emergence of crises resulting from fighting for restricted resources. Take crude oil for example, it is so immensely consumed in daily life and industrial production that its role is fundamental in today’s global economic and political stage. People of different nations even initiate wars to obtain more oil fields, an activity which can be best exemplified by the complicated scenario in the Middle East. Other examples include more disputes over the sharing of water resources, as well as the lack of food and other necessities in most African countries.
    Indeed, a large population with limited resources casts a shadow on mankind’s future existence in this planet. Therefore, we must take positive steps with the strength of all human beings to hold back this grim tendency. Sustainable development needs a population with a reasonable exploitation of natural resources.
    譯文:
    這是一張很有警示性的漫畫,其中成百上千個(gè)新生嬰兒們嗷嗷待哺,但是供應(yīng)他們的卻只有兩碗粥。很顯然,這些嬰兒代表了人口數(shù)量,而粥則象征了全球資源,正如圖中的標(biāo)題所提示的那樣。這幅圖意在給我們敲響警鐘,即地球上的資源已經(jīng)無(wú)法供應(yīng)呈爆炸式增長(zhǎng)的人口了。
    這里傳遞的信息是非常真實(shí)的。過(guò)去的20世紀(jì)不僅見(jiàn)證了人口數(shù)量的迅速增長(zhǎng),同時(shí)因?yàn)闋?zhēng)奪有限資源而導(dǎo)致的危機(jī)也開(kāi)始浮現(xiàn)。以石油為例,由于其在人們的日常生活和工業(yè)生產(chǎn)中的巨大消耗量,石油在當(dāng)今的全球經(jīng)濟(jì)和政治舞臺(tái)中扮演了重要角色。來(lái)自不同國(guó)家的人們?yōu)榱藸?zhēng)奪油田不惜開(kāi)戰(zhàn),其的例子就是中東地區(qū)復(fù)雜的局勢(shì)。其他的例子包括由于水資源導(dǎo)致的紛爭(zhēng),以及大多數(shù)非洲國(guó)家的食品和其他生活必需品的匱乏。
    實(shí)際上,巨大的人口和有限的資源之間的反差給人類將來(lái)在這個(gè)星球上的生存投上了陰影。因此,我們必須采取正面的措施、集中全人類的力量來(lái)阻止這種嚴(yán)峻趨勢(shì)的發(fā)展。一個(gè)可持續(xù)的發(fā)展意味著合理的人口數(shù)量和對(duì)自然資源的合理開(kāi)發(fā)。

    witness: v. 見(jiàn)證,證明
    hike: n. 增加

    財(cái)富與人口
     Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing. In your essay, you should:
    1) describe the drawing briefly,
    2) explain its intended meaning, and then
    3) state your point of view.
    You should write on ANSWER SHEET 2.
    范文:
    As is depicted in the picture, compared to the situation in the past, nowadays the total wealth that mankind possesses conspicuously surpasses that of any time in history. What is more striking is that most of the wealth concentrates in the hands of a small bunch of people.
    It is quite obvious that the artist wishes to set us thinking about the disparity between the rich and the poor in today’s world. On the one hand, it is staggering for us to find in the annual list of the “World's Wealthiest People” by Forbes Magazine how the property of the rich keeps aggregating in an unbelievable scale. For instance, the fortune of Bill Gates certainly amounts to, or even exceeds, the annual GDP of an average developing country. On the other hand, the majority of humans have to struggle simply to make ends meet, not to mention those still suffer from hunger in the most less developed countries.
    It is beyond doubt that the gross discrepancy of wealth distribution, though being a problem long existing in human society, is now developing to an extreme which may cause chaos. Therefore, the whole world should take this problem into serious consideration. Only through a systematic reform to achieve a more equal society can we prevent the problem from deteriorating.
    譯文:
    正如圖中描繪的那樣,比起以前,現(xiàn)在人類擁有的總財(cái)富明顯超過(guò)了歷的任何一個(gè)時(shí)期。但是,更驚人的是我們的財(cái)富集中在了一群非常少的人們手中。
    很顯然作圖者意在喚起人們對(duì)于當(dāng)今世界上不斷拉大的貧富差距這一問(wèn)題的思考。一方面,通過(guò)福布斯雜志每年公布的世界富豪榜中,我們驚奇地發(fā)現(xiàn)富人們聚集財(cái)富的速度和規(guī)模令人難以置信。例如,比爾.蓋茨的財(cái)產(chǎn)必然相當(dāng)于甚至是超過(guò)了一個(gè)一般發(fā)展中國(guó)家的年均國(guó)內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值。另一方面,大部分人都苦苦地為了家里的收支平衡而奮斗,更不用說(shuō)在那些最窮的國(guó)家中人們還在忍饑挨餓。
    毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),盡管財(cái)富分配不均是人類歷一個(gè)長(zhǎng)久的問(wèn)題,但是現(xiàn)在這種差距正在向極端方向發(fā)展,并可能導(dǎo)致根本性的混亂。因此,全世界都應(yīng)該嚴(yán)肅地思考這個(gè)問(wèn)題。我們只有通過(guò)改革來(lái)建設(shè)一個(gè)更加公平的社會(huì),才能夠防止這個(gè)問(wèn)題的進(jìn)一步惡化。
