    「范文四」

    Directions：

    Write an essay of 160200 words based on the following drawing. In your essay， you should

    2） explain its intended meaning， and then

    3） state your point of view.

    You should write neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. （20 points）

    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）

    在這幅發(fā)人深思的圖中我們可以看到地球上面簇?fù)碇鵁o(wú)數(shù)的人。這幅漫畫(huà)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。

    毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)，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)。以原油為例，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)家由于人們?yōu)榱藸?zhēng)奪油田不惜開(kāi)戰(zhàn)，其最好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短缺導(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而引起的騷亂。

    實(shí)際上，劇增的人口和地球有限的資源之間的反差給人類(lèi)未來(lái)的生存投上了陰影。因此，該是我們采取有效措施，集中全人類(lèi)的力量來(lái)阻止這種嚴(yán)峻的趨勢(shì)發(fā)展的時(shí)候了。顯而易見(jiàn)，提倡可持續(xù)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)。
