答案 As can be seen from the cartoon, in a forest, there are no trees at all, only stumps left. Two worms are looking at the stumps, wondering what they can eat for lunch. The picture serves to remind us that in social development, some people over utilize our natural resources, as in the case of forests. Some people only think of their short-term, personal interests. An entire forest might be clear cut, in the interest of making a profit, without a single tree planted in its place. This inconsiderate attitude towards the welfare of our descendants, as well the indifference to the outcome of such reckless actions, can only turn Earth into a cold and lifeless planet. People must be taught to appreciate Earth as not only our home, but also the home of our children and grandchildren, as well as all other plants and animals. Now, sustainable development has become a topic of heated debate in recent years. While it is justifiable to satisfy current demands, we cannot neglect the needs of our descendants in the process. Our children also depend on Earth’s natural resources and we should not deprive them of such necessities. In other words, we should not use up our natural resources just to meet our own present-day needs, while ignoring the future of our planet. So a reasonable use of forests and reforestation are the best choices in the long run. Even though trees are in short demand today, we must still keep the deforestation under control, for we do not want to eliminate all of our forests which are essential to our existence. As responsible citizens, we have the responsibility to ensure that future generations have enough natural resources to use and are not penalized for the shortsightedness of present-day decision-makers.
解析     本文是图画式现象解释型作文。图中在一片森林里不见树木，剩下的只是树桩。两只虫子拿着餐叉坐在树桩前，为自己的食物而发愁。可见，图画中的信息是：在社会发展过程中，自然资源过度使用，大片森林遭到砍伐。而这种只顾眼前利益的、短视的、自私的行为会让我们的地球变成一个冷冰而无生气的行星。必须告诫人们的是：地球不仅是我们的家园，也是我们的孩子和所有后代的家园，为了社会的可持续性发展，人们必须考虑到自己的行为会对未来社会产生什么样的影响。在结尾处，应该重申观点，指出人们有责任保护自然资源。
