【正确答案】正确答案： Are Fruits Dispensable? Fruits contain minerals which human body needs and can"t be synthesized by itself, anti-cell-aging vitamins with antioxidant effects, and cholesterol-lowing soluble fibers. So fruits are beneficial to human health. According to related research, fruits can help to prevent kinds of diseases, such as lung cancer, apoplexy and coronary heart disease, which is applied in practice by more and more people. Further research about relationship between death caused by lung cancer and use of vitamin preparations shows that synthetic vitamins can" t replace preventive effects of fruits on lung cancer. Nutritional immunologist explains that vitamins in natural plants can" t play a single role, but work together with other vitamins and nutrients. What" s more, there are still some physiologically active substances in vegetables and fruits which haven" t been recognized. As antioxidant effects of natural plants have become an important research domain. Research has showed that some vegetables and fruits have strong antioxidant effects, such as garlic, carrots, tomatoes, oranges and kiwifruits, and effects of postponing ageing process by increasing the activity of SOD of the body. In conclusion, as an important part of daily diets, fruits are not dispensable. Vitamin preparations can" t replace fruits and vegetables in daily diets. Using too much vitamin preparation will lead to some side effects, some of which are even very serious.

【答案解析】解析：本题要求用英语总结这篇1000多字的中文文章，考查了考生的语言概括能力和表达能力，相对于命题作文要略微简单。由于中文文章结构分明，英语摘要的结构可以参考原文，共分为三个段落：第一段，总结水果的诸多作用；第二段，总结水果发生作用的原因，其一是含有不能单独起作用的维生素，其二是有抗氧化作用；第三段，总结水果的必要性，呼应前文，并提出在日常生活中的应用。为了保证字数要求，一般情况下，原文中所举例子可以忽略或者简述，对某一实验结论的解释性文字可以忽略，总的原则是择其精华而述之。此外，此类文章总结难免会碰到生僻单词，多可以按其字面翻译，比如生理活性物质，可译为physiologically active substance。
