【正确答案】As is vividly demonstrated in the picture, a man wearing a pair of glasses is studying desperately a book entitled How to Distinguish Genuine Goods from Counterfeit Goods. Besides, there is another book under his left arm under the title of Be Careful of Being Taken In. [1]
Obviously, this picture reflects [2] a serious social phenomenon that will bring about many unfavorable consequences. [3] First and foremost, counterfeit goods poses a huge threat to people's daily life, which has aroused wide attention. Moreover, consumers will gradually distrust manufacturers, which indicates the loss of social trust. Last but not least, fake and inferior products are usually sold at a lower price than those real and superior ones. This prevents to a certain degree the economic order in our country from developing normally.
Therefore, it is high time that we took measures to deal with this problem. [4] For one thing, the government should strengthen the implement of laws and regulations to prevent such deceit. For another, those who make counterfeit goods must be punished severely. Only in this way can we contain such an unlawful act and make people live a healthy life.[5]
【答案解析】[1] 第一段描述图面内容。表示书名用了两种说法:entitled和under the title of,语言运用灵活。be taken in即意为“上当,受骗”。
[2] 由描述图画内容过渡到揭示图画内涵,自然引出图画所反映的社会问题。
[3] 第一句是第二段的主题甸,之后运用First and foremost、Moreover和Last but not least分层次列举了该社会问题所产生的不良后果,结构清晰。
[4] 提出自己的见解和解决问题的方法,且随后运用For one thing和For another来详尽阐述解决该问题的具体方法。It is high time that...意为“是……的时候了”,从句谓语动词要用虚拟语气。
[5] only放于句首,后接介词短语in this way,该句需要半倒装。contain意为“控制;防止……恶化”。
[参考译文]
如图中生动展示的那样,一位戴眼镜的男子正拼命地研读一本书,书名是《怎样识别真假商品》,同时他的左胳膊下还夹着另外一本书——《当心上当》。
显然,图画揭示了一个严峻的社会现象,它会带来许多不良后果。首先,假货严重威胁了人们的日常生活,这引起了社会的广泛关注。此外,消费者逐渐对生产厂商丧失了信任,这也反映出社会信任的缺失。最后,假冒伪劣商品通常比货真质优的商品卖得更便宜,在一定程度上阻碍了我国经济秩序的正常发展。
因此,是我们采取行动应对这个问题的时候了。一方面,政府应加大法律法规的执行力度来阻止这种欺诈行为。另一方面,生产假冒伪劣商品的厂家应得到严惩。只有这样,我们才能阻止这种违法行为,使人们享受健康的生活。
