范文：

People have the illusion that they can do anything with money. Just as what is shown in the picture, by paying a penalty, people can give birth to more children, factories can let out the polluted air directly without any treatment, and trees can be felled at will.

This is a very serious social problem. Compared with other countries, China has a larger population but more limited resources. If everybody behaves in the similar way, it would be far beyond the country's capacity to guarantee everyone a well-off life. Moreover, it was reported that to bring up one child costs 350,000 yuan, which means that a family with several children bears a heavy burden. Meanwhile, if factories do not take any measure to treat the polluted air, the atmosphere will be further contaminated. Also, the felling of trees will surely lead to soil erosion, while frequently occurring sand storms are humans' deserved punishment for deforestation.

Though taxtation is one of the methods to punish this sort of behavior, it is never the only way. Solving these problems reflected in the picture depends largely on our responsibility to society and environment. If the sense of responsibility is greatly aroused, harmony between man and the environment will not be far away.

譯文：

現(xiàn)今很多人認(rèn)為用錢就可以做所有的事情。正如圖中所示的那樣，通過付罰款，人們可以超生，工廠可以不經(jīng)過處理就排放廢氣，樹木也可以被隨意地砍伐。

這是一個(gè)非常嚴(yán)重的社會(huì)問題。相比其他國家，中國有更多的人口而資源卻非常有限。如果每個(gè)人都用這種方式行事的話，那么這個(gè)國家遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)沒有能力讓每個(gè)人都過上富裕的生活。此外，有報(bào)道稱要培養(yǎng)一個(gè)孩子需要花費(fèi)3萬5千元，這意味著一個(gè)有許多孩子的家庭將承受很沉重的負(fù)擔(dān)。同時(shí)，如果工廠不采取措施處理廢氣的話，大氣層會(huì)被進(jìn)一步污染。另外，樹木砍伐會(huì)導(dǎo)致土地的腐蝕和水土流失，頻繁發(fā)生的沙塵暴就是人類過度砍伐森林應(yīng)得的懲罰。

盡管罰款是懲罰這些行為的一種方法，但絕不是唯一的方法。解決這個(gè)問題更重要的一點(diǎn)在很大程度上取決于我們對(duì)于社會(huì)和環(huán)境的責(zé)任。如果能夠喚起廣泛的責(zé)任感，那么我們離達(dá)到人與自然之間的和諧就不遠(yuǎn)了。
