01：是否鼓励拥有私家车
Owning a private car should be encouraged：
应该鼓励拥有私家车：
I think everyone has the right to enjoy a better life. The private car gives us a much greater degree of comfort and mobility in our life. With a car of our own, we can avoid going to work by crowded buses or subways. Moreover, having a car also means that we can enjoy the weekends and holidays better. With a car we can go wherever we like, even to places where the regular buses and trains do not reach. Therefore, owning a private car should be encouraged by our society.
每个人都有权利追求更高品质的生活。私家车给我们的生活带来了更大程度的舒适性和灵活性。如果拥有属于自己的车，我们就可以不必上班时去挤拥挤的公交车或者地铁。而且，车可以使我
们的周末和假期过得更加愉快。你可以驾车去任何你喜欢的地方，尤其是那些不通公交车和火车的地方。因此，我们的社会应该鼓励拥有私家车。
Owning a private car should not be encouraged：
不应鼓励拥有私家车：
Nowadays, the number of private cars is on the rise in our country, which has given rise to many serious problems. First of all, it is self-evident that the automobile contributes much to the air pollution.
Secondly, private cars have a direct relationship with traffic jams (阻塞) in cities. Without an effective regulation on private cars , the traffic system will suffer more serious problems. Last but not the least , private cars consume( 消费) a lot of energy , which will be a threat to the sustainable( 可持续的) development of our country.
如今，在我国，随着私家车数量的不断增加，各种问题层出不穷。首先，汽车污染空气的事实是不证自明的。其次，私家车与城市的交通堵塞有着直接联系。如果不对私家车进行有效地管制，交通系统将会出现更多更严重的问题。最后一点也很重要，私家车耗费了大量的能源，这可能会威胁到国家的可持续发展。
03：穿着打扮是否重要
Dressing well is important to one's Iife.
着装在人们的生活中作用重大。
I think clothes and fashion speak to people about what kind of person you are. They help you form a good first impression. So, dressing well is important and necessary.
我认为，从一个人的穿着打扮能够看出他(她)是个怎么样的人。衣服能够帮助你给他人留下一个好印象。所以，合体的衣装打扮是十分重要和必要的。
Everyone loves beautiful things. Therefore, if you dress with a bad taste( 品味), you will give others a bad impression. What's more, dressing well and fashionably can give you great confidence. In my view, the clothes we wear say much about our personality. Just as a saying goes, you're what you wear.
每个人都喜欢漂亮的事物。因此，如果你在穿着上的品味太差，一定会给他人留下糟糕的印象。另外，大方合体的穿着还能够增加你的自信。在我看来，着装可以透露出我们的性格，就像一句老话“人如衣装”。
The inner qualities are more important than dress.
内在品质比外部装扮更重要。
At present, more and more people are paying great attention to their dress. But in my view, the inner qualities( 内在品质) are more important than the way you
dress, since your inner qualities decide who you are and who you will be.
如今，越来越多的人对其穿着打扮过分关注。但我认为一个人内在的品质要远比其外表穿着更重要，因为内在的品质决定了你现在是并将会是什么样的人。
I think pursuing fashion is nothing more than a waste of time and money. Many women squander (浪费，乱花) vast sum of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn.
我认为追求时尚只不过是浪费时间和金钱。许多女人每年都要花费大量的金钱在买新衣服上，但事实上，她们的旧衣服依然可以穿。
Although first impression is important in our daily life, it can be changed by further communication. Therefore, the most important thing for us to pursue(追求) is inner qualities rather than fashionable clothes.
尽管在我们日常生活中，第一印象十分重要，但这是能通过以后的交流而被改变的。因此，对于我们来说，最重要的是追求内在美，而并非那些时尚的衣物。
03：是否该提倡减肥
Losing weight is a kind of progress.
减肥是一种进步。
At present, more and more people are concerned about weight. I think this phenomenon is a kind of progress, since people care about their health. As we know, putting on weight can increase the chance for us to suffer from some kinds of diseases.
目前，越来越多的人开始关注自己的体重。我认为这种现象的出现意味着一种进步，因为人们开始关注自己的健康。众所周知，肥胖会增加人们患某些疾病的风险。
I think the increased concern for weight is an improvement of our living standard. When we are poor , the most important thing for us is to increase our food rather than to reduce it. Therefore, I think losing weight is a kind of progress.
对体重问题的日益关注也说明了人们生活水平的提高。当生活水平较低时，如何填饱肚子是人们关注的头等大事，而非减少食物的摄入量。因此，我认为减肥是一种进步的表现。
Losing weight should not be encouraged.
