 听妈妈讲那过去的事情
The drawing portrays a tragic scene in which a rabbit is telling a story to her son, with numerous fresh tree stumps surrounding them. It seems that the tree stumps are lamenting the loss of their paradise as well。
The picture aims at assailing a serious environmental problem—deforestation, for which several factors are responsible. In the first place, no one can ignore the fact that wood is an indispensable raw material for industrial production and daily life. In the second place, the expanding human population requires more living space, and forests are always the first choice humans decide to sacrifice. As a result, forests have experienced, and are experiencing fatal destruction worldwide。
Currently, people in increasing numbers come to realize the forests’ fundamental role in sustaining ecological balance, and their damage will result in irreversible harm to the world’s environment. Therefore, urgent and effective measures should be implemented so as to prevent deforestation. For instance, there are already some steps that have proved useful, say, the establishment of reserves of natural lands, the creation of substitutes of wooden products. The preservation and restoration of forests is a complex project that calls for more concern from the human society. (203 words)
这幅图描绘了一个悲剧的场景：森林中，一只兔子正向幼兔讲述过去的事情，在它们周围到处都是刚被砍掉的大树留下的树桩，而且这些树桩仿佛也在悲叹失去的生活天堂。
这幅漫画的目的在于质问一个严重的森林环境破坏问题，这其中有许多原因。首先，没有人可以忽略这一事实，木材是工业生产和人们生活中不可或缺的一种原材料；其次，不断扩张的人口规模需要更多的生存空间，而森林往往是人类需求的第一个选择。因此，在全世界范围内，森林正在经历致命性的毁灭。
现在，越来越多的人开始意识到森林对于保持生态平衡所起的重要作用，而对森林的破坏将会对全球环境造成不可逆转的影响。因此，我们必须采取紧急和有效的措施来制止这一砍伐森林的趋势。例如，我们已经有一些被证明为有效的措施，如建立自然环境保护区，发明替代木材的产品等。另外，森林的保护和恢复是一项复杂的系统工程，需要全社会对环保问题的共同和全面的关注。

 礼到心不到
As is vividly depicts in the cartoon, old parents are sitting on the coach with disappointment and sadness, because no one comes back to celebrate with them. Although they received a lot of presents from their children, they feel very miserable and have no appetite, since what they want most is not such material stuffs but the care and love from their children and grandchildren。
Nowadays, young men look so busy and independent in modern society that they will never feel free to live with their parents. They move out and mind their own business every day. On usual days, they would not like to take their time to visit their parents with the excuses of busyness. On some festival days, they probably share a little time to drop in their parents or even just send some presents but don’t show up personally like what the cartoon above illustrates. They think that presents can represent their love, however, to the parents, who overcame a lot of difficulties to bring them up, those stuff are far away from what they really hope for。
With the rapid pace of economic development, our old parents feel more and more lonely and unhappy. However busy we may be, we should spend more time talking with them and accompanying them, because they once gave us so much selfless love that we should return them the same from the bottom of our heart. (238 words)
漫画中生动地展示了一对老人带着失望与悲伤坐在椅子上，因为没人回来和他们一起庆祝节日。虽然他们收到了子女的许多礼物，但他们感到非常孤独，也没什么胃口，因为他们最需要的并非这些物质的东西，而是子女们的关爱。
在现代社会中，年轻人看起来如此忙碌，以至于无法抽空来陪伴父母。他们大多搬出去独自居住，每天忙于自己的事务。在平常的日子里，他们以忙为借口，不愿意花时间去探望父母。在一些节日，他们可能只留一点时间去看望父母或是如漫画中所示的仅仅送些礼物表示心意而无法与父母团聚。他们认为礼物可以代表他们的爱意，但是，对于含辛茹苦把他们养育大的父母来说，这些礼物远远不是他们所期望的。
随着经济的快速发展，年迈的父母们感到越来越孤独与不快。因此，作为子女，无论多忙，我们都应该花时间与父母聊天，陪伴他们，因为他们曾经给了我们无私的爱，我们应当以同样的爱回报父母。

 石缝中的小草
One glance at the cartoon can leave the viewer in awe of its beauty and splendor. One can only imagine the amount of patience that was required before any of this greatness was to be achieved. Here it is a symbol of strong man, whose character is revealed in crisis and adversity. It goes without saying that adversity is the touchstone of man—the harder the situation is, the more clearly a man’s strength is seen。
This picture reminds me of my father, a most determined and persistent man. He was born in a very poor family in the country, and both of my grandparents were farmers, but he was determined to change his own fate ever since he was a little boy. He studied extremely hard, graduated from high school with distinction and went to study computer sciences in the University. He later became a professor and art expert in computer programming—he could design large-scale programs for supermarkets, hotels, parks and bookstores all by himself. Who can deny that resulted from the determination and perseverance of a most strong person?
The best way to know a strong man, I think, is to let him go through a severe test. Whenever we want to test a man’s character, we should find out whether he could stand adversity, because adversity can always reveal the true character of a man. Some people would give up halfway in the face of what seems to be insurmountable. Men of such a type can hardly expect to succeed. We must take a step by step approach to accomplish everything until we get the final result. (268 words)
这幅漫画给人印象深刻：顽石夹缝中求生的小草。漫画寓意着任何伟人在到达成功之前，需要何等的耐心和坚毅的品质。小草象征一个坚强的人，其顽强的性格只有在危机和不幸中才能充分展现。很显然，不幸是人们成功与否的试金石，一个人的力量只有遭遇困境时才能被激发出来。
这幅图片让我想起了我的父亲，一位非常有决心和毅力的人。我的父亲出生在乡下一个贫穷的家庭里，他的父母都是农民，但是他从小就决心改变自己的命运。他学习极其刻苦，高中毕业以优异的成绩考入大学学习计算机科学。由于他学生时就能为超市、宾馆、公园和书店等单位设计计算机管理程序，以至于后来在计算机编程方面成为一名技术专家和教授。谁不认为这是一个坚强的人因拥有决心和毅力而取得成功的典型案例呢？
我认为，识别一个人坚强与否的最好方法是让其遭受挫折。要想测试一个人的性格品质，应看他是否能承受挫折，因为不幸和挫折可以展示一个人真实的性格品质。有些人在面对看似无法克服的困难时会中途放弃，这类人很难成功。要想取得成功必须采取步步为营的方法，认真完成每件事，坚持到底才能取得最后的成果。

 地球资源
It is a thought-provoking cartoon, in which numerous people are crowding on earth. The drawing aims to alarm us that resources on earth are far from enough to sustain our exploding population。
It goes without saying that this message is very true. The 20th century has 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, it is prime time that we took positive steps with the strength of all human beings to hold back this grim tendency. Evidently, sustainable development needs a population with a reasonable exploitation of natural resources. (200 words)
在这幅发人深思的图中我们可以看到地球上面簇拥着无数的人。这幅漫画意在给我们敲响警钟，即地球上的资源已经无法供应呈爆炸式增长的人口了。
毫无疑问，这里传递的信息是非常真实的。过去的20世纪不仅见证了人口数量的迅速增长，同时因为争夺有限资源而导致的危机也开始浮现。以原油为例，由于其在人们的日常生活和工业生产中的巨大消耗量，石油在当今的全球经济和政治舞台中扮演了重要角色。来自不同国家由于人们为了争夺油田不惜开战，其最好的例子就是中东地区复杂的局势。其他的例子包括由于水资源短缺导致的纷争，以及大多数非洲国家的食品和其他生活必需品的匮乏而引起的骚乱。
实际上，剧增的人口和地球有限的资源之间的反差给人类未来的生存投上了阴影。因此，该是我们采取有效措施，集中全人类的力量来阻止这种严峻的趋势发展的时候了。显而易见，提倡可持续发展意味着合理的人口数量和对自然资源的合理开发。

 上班族的压力
What a vivid picture! Just as the picture depicts, there are so many things or desires that the man has to bear or to seek. And it is like him that almost every one of us feels exhausted. Every day we jump out of bed with the earsplitting ring of the alarmclock, swallow a quick breakfast and then rush to catch the bus. When arriving at the workplace, we have to work every minute to its full value until we drag home and throw ourselves deep into the sofa. The fast pace of modem life do bring us great pressure。
The first stress-maker is competition. Nowadays, many people, the strongly careerminded ones in particular, are involved in a fierce competition for money, ranks, and fame. In the rat race, they try every means to stay on the top, and the fear to lose the game inevitably wrecks their peace of mind. The second, a reason closely related to the first one, is unhappy interpersonal relationships. Some people are so stupid at people skills that they always feel ill at ease when working with others. As a result, they can’t make themselves part of a group, and the loneliness greatly distress them。
How can we adapt ourselves to the stress then? Above all, we should develop a positive attitude towards competition. That is, competition is not the ultimate goal of life, but a driving force that motivates us to fulfill our dreams and to realize our personal values. On the other hand, it is demanding for us to keep people aware of the importance of developing a schedule which includes enough time for rest and other important values. (277 words)
这是一幅多么生动的漫画！如图所示，一位男子身负如此多的事务与愿望。几乎我们每个人都像他一样感到疲惫。每天我们闹钟一响就起床，迅速地吞下早餐后就去赶公交车。到了单位以后，我们还要争分夺秒地工作，直到我们拖着疲惫的身躯回家，瘫倒在沙发上不想动弹。城市生活的快节奏给我们带来了巨大的压力。
压力首先来自于竞争。当前许多人陷入对金钱、地位与名声的残酷竞争中，尤其是那些拥有强烈事业心的上班族。在这种残酷的竞争中，他们使出浑身解数力求成功，由于害怕在竞争中失败而无法保持平和的心态。第二个原因与前一个有关，即复杂的人际关系导致的压力。一些人不善于为人处事，在与他人共事时常常感到困扰与不安。因此，他们因不能成为团体中的一员而产生强烈的孤独感。
那么，我们如何适应压力呢？总的来说，我们应该培养积极的竞争态度，也就是说，竞争并非生命的终极目标，而只是实现我们梦想与个人价值的动力；另一方面，也要求人们认识到合理安排休息时间与追求其他价值要保持平衡的重要性。

 校园炒股
What the drawing is trying to express is very conspicuous! The eyecatching scene depicted has become a common sight on college campuses in recent years. Speculating about the stock market is no longer a new thing among college students and continues to become more popular. A kind of stock trading league has even been set up at several universities。
However, should a university student invest in the stock market? Just as every coin has two sides, there are also two sides to a student’s decision to invest and trade in the stock market. On the negative side, following the stock market is very time-consuming, and, as a student’s main priority is to study, may undermine academic pursuits. Furthermore, students often do not have the financial means to take on large ventures in the stock market, and thus could hardly withstand potential losses. On the other hand, if stock market investment is economically feasible for the student, it is a different story. Assuming one can manage his or her time well enough to keep up with studies, investing in the stock market can be a great way to get first-hand financial experience, while at the same time preparing one for life after college。
Based on the points discussed above, personally, I hold the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. After pondering the question on several occasion, I have finally arrived at conclusion that stock market investment should not be recommended to most college students. (239 words)
这幅图所要表达的含义显而易见！上图所要描述的场景在当今大学校园非常普遍。投资股票对于当今的大学生来说已经不是什么新鲜事，而且也越发流行，甚至一些股票交易协会都已在一些大学建立起来。
然而，大学生是否应该投资股票市场呢？正如任何事物都有两面，针对大学生投资交易股票也有两种不同的看法。从负面的角度来看，学生的主要任务是学习，投身股票市场特别耗费时间，会削弱学生的学业追求。而且，学生很少会有能够在股票市场冒险的金融知识，因此几乎不能承担潜在的损失。然而，如果股票交易对于学生经济上来讲是合算的，那就另当别论。假如学生能够合理的调配时间，不至于影响到学业，投资股票市场会是很好的获得第一手金融经验的方式，而且也为毕业之后的生活打下基础。
基于上述讨论，我个人认为弊大于利。在多次思考这个问题之后，我最终得出结论，对于大部分大学生来说，不应该进行股票交易。
