该文的图画画了两个人望楼兴叹,很明显该文谈的是我国当前的房价过高、房地产行业如何良性发展的问题。
Sample:
In the picture, two people are talking about a newly built set of apartment buildings. One says, It is too expensive. The other goes on to say, How can we afford it? It is obvious that the drawer of this picture wants to draw our attention towards our real estate industry.
Nowadays, our real estate industry has experienced such an unprecedented boom that all of us begin to consider it as too hot in one way or another. The average price has been soaring for quite a few years. In some big cities it seems to be out of controlit has been nearly impossible for the common local citizens to afford a satisfactory apartment in the downtown area. Consequently, how to create a healthier and more reasonable property market has been a problem of great importance.
Among all the possible measures, I believe the following ones are the most appropriate. In the first place, the legislators should establish a series of policies so as to curb speculation and thus keep the price of houses at a reasonable level. In the second place, the governments at all levels should make better use of the limited land resources by building theme communities in the suburbs. Last but by no means the least, more economically affordable housing should be built so as to relieve the burden of common citizens.
Only through the joint efforts of all sides can we realize the healthy development of our housing market. Until that time, our people will surely possess their own houses and enjoy a better and more harmonious life.
点评:
该文分为四段来写。第一段先描写两个人的对话。之后末句引到主题上,即我国的房地产行业。
第二段先写当前房地产过热,而后说价格猛涨。在某些大城市里房价似乎失控人们无力购房。末句写创造健康理性的房地产市场成为了重要问题。
第三段分三点来写应采取的措施。
最后一段做结,第一句承上段说只有各方通力合作才能实现房地产市场的健康发展。第二句说到那个时候,人们将能拥有自己的房屋并享受更好更和谐的生活。这一句是呼应第一段,非常重要。
心得:
文中real estate industry是房地产行业,而property market和housing market指的是房地产市场。
首段末句是引出主题的句子,请大家用心识记。
第二段首句是结果状语从句的用法。第三句有破折号的用法。第四句中有平行的形容词比较级的用法,相当精彩。
第三段首句是模板句。第二句中的curb speculation表示遏制投机。第三句中的theme communities表示主题社区。第四句中的economically affordable housing表示经济适用房。
末段首句是倒装句,语气强烈。第二句有两处平行结构,先有平行的动宾结构,后有形容词比较级的平行,非常引人注目,特别是后面一对,一个是以er结尾,一个是加more,显得错落有致。
