【正确答案】Candidate A
A: This picture tells us a common phenomenon in Chinese education. We can see this student bends with a big schoolbag filled with books on his back with great effort. He sweats all over. From the words, we can guess he always has lots of homework to do. Now, this phenomenon can be found easily in life. Students have to study hard without any entertainment in order to get good academic achievements. Although the department concerned has called upon the schools to lighten the student's burden, teachers still assign a great deal of homework, and some of which is of no significance.
这幅图向我们展示了中国教育中的一个普遍现象。我们看到，这个学生吃力地背着装满书的大书包，腰都弯了，并且汗流浃背。从图上的文字描述，我们能猜测到他总是有许多作业要做。现在，这种现象在生活中很容易就能找到。为了有好的学习成绩，学生们不得不刻苦学习，毫无娱乐可言。尽管，有关部门已经号召学校减轻学生的负担，但老师们还是布置大量作业，而且有些作业是毫无意义的。
B: Students are too heavily burdened with study to develop their own hobbies. They are confined within the four walls of the room all day. They have no time for sports. They cannot get to nature. They don't know how to contact with others. They cannot develop all rounds. Many students who study well have also been sent to some tutorials by their parents. These will greatly affect their healthy growth. They should go out of the classroom to study more in nature and society.
学生的学习负担太重而无法发展他们自己的爱好。他们终日困在屋子里，没有时间运动，无法接触自然，不知如何与他人交往，无法全面地发展。许多学习好的学生也被父母送进辅导班。这些做法会严重影响他们的健康成长。他们应该走出教室，到大自然和社会上学更多的东西。
Candidate B
B: From this picture we can see the student is so tired with four part-time jobs. He takes them in the free time and falls asleep over class. Of course he fails to hear any word that the teacher is saying. He has been doing many part-time jobs, such as tutor, salesman and so on. He couldn't have a rest, and then he'll feel tired and sleepy. It is true that more and more students are looking for part-time jobs. But at the same time there is a question that part-time jobs will affect their studies. Many students go out to look for part-time jobs to earn some money to relieve some of the parents' burden, but they should not ignore the major task of the students—study. If not handled properly, a part-time job will take too much of one's time and energy, and affect their health and study. So I think a student should think and weigh carefully before taking a part-time job.
从这幅图片中我们可以看到这个学生由于做了4份兼职工作，以至于累得在上课的时候睡着了。当然他根本就没听老师的讲课。他做了很多份兼职工作，例如：家教和销售员等，由于没时间休息所以又累又困。确实现在越来越多的学生在找兼职工作。但同时又存在一个问题就是兼职工作在一定程度上会影响他们的学习。许多学生去找兼职工作挣钱是为了减轻父母的负担，但是他们不应该忽视学生的主要任务——学习。如果不正确地处理这个问题，兼职工作会占用太多的时间和精力，影响他们的健康和学习。所以我认为一个学生在做兼职工作之前要权衡利弊。
A: Yes, I agree with what Candidate B said. Whether to take a part-time job is a difficult choice. If not taking a part-time job, they will be short of money and their study will also be affected. But to take so many part-time jobs, like the student in the picture, wilt also affect study. But I think he should give up the part-time jobs and concentrate on his study instead.
是的，我同意考生B所说的。是否做兼职工作是一个很难的选择。如果不做，他们就会缺钱，这是会影响学习的。但如果做太多的兼职工作，就会像图片上的这个学生一样，也会影响学习。但是我认为图片上的学生应该放弃兼职工作，专心于学习。
