答案 The Responsibility of the Media The picture personifies the collusion between fake and shoddy goods and paid news and false advertisements. The former is portrayed as an unattractive single woman who, with the help of the latter—two matchmakers—would easily win favor with her Mr. Right, namely, consumers. The picture satirises today’s irresponsibly profit-seeking media. Advertisers are allowed some leeway in describing their products by using some puffing and weasel words. However, in some cases, the media simply disregards public safety and carries some advertisements that contain factually wrong statements. A case in point would be the milk powder scandal that broke a couple of years ago, in which top-quality products claimed in the advertisements turned out to be unqualified ones with toxic additives, resulting in many malnourished infants and even several deaths. Undoubtedly, manufacturers should take most of the blame, but the media could by no means evade responsibility for it fails to play the role of supervision. To sum up, the media should be a guardian for the public against and shoddy goods rather than an accomplice with the latter.

解析     本文主要讨论了媒体为假冒伪劣产品做虚假广告宣传。
    第一段对漫画进行描述。将假冒伪劣商品、有偿新闻和虚假广告拟人化,形象生动地说明了他们之间的关系。
    第二段对漫画进行评论,阐述了不负责任的媒体只顾追求利益而忽视公众安全,只要给钱就为假冒伪劣产品做虚假宣传,并分析了其行为所带来的危害。在这里举了一个例子(A case inpoint),举国震惊的“毒奶粉”事件造成的严重后果离不开媒体的大肆宣传。最后一句比较长,but连接两个分句,后句中包含for引导的原因状语从句。
    第三段总结全文,指出媒体应当发挥自己的作用,保卫公众的安全。
