參考范文
With the improvement of our living standards, people are increasingly concerned about their diets. 1 However, there is now a growing unrest over food safety after a series of food safety accidents have occurred across the country in recent years. 2 I believe at least three factors account for this issue. 3
First and foremost 4 , manufacturers should be blamed most. Since they aim to make more profits, they may take the risk of breaking laws and sacrificing consumers’ health, producing unhealthy food. For instance, some food producers tend to use overdosed additives in order to make the food look or taste better. In addition 4 , the departments that oversee food safety and enforce policies should also be responsible because the laws and regulations have not been implemented in a strict way in many cases. And sometimes the manufacturers who violated the law haven’t been severely punished. Last but not least 4 , consumers tend to buy or eat the food that tastes better. They may not know that the better the food tastes, the more ingredients it may have, which may pose a greater threat to people’s health.
In view of the seriousness of the problem, effective measures must be taken before things get worse. Firstly, it is imperative that relevant laws and regulations should be enforced in a stricter way. Secondly, the public’s awareness of the importance of food quality should be raised. Only by taking these actions can the problem be tackled successfully in the nearest future. 5
隨著生活水平的提高，人們?cè)絹?lái)越關(guān)注飲食。然而，在近些年我國(guó)連續(xù)發(fā)生了多起食品安全事故后，人們對(duì)食品安全現(xiàn)狀日益擔(dān)憂。我認(rèn)為導(dǎo)致該現(xiàn)象的原因至少有三個(gè)。
首先，最應(yīng)該遭受譴責(zé)的是生產(chǎn)商。因?yàn)樗麄兊哪繕?biāo)就是創(chuàng)造更多利潤(rùn)，所以他們往往冒著觸犯法律和犧牲消費(fèi)者健康的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)生產(chǎn)不健康的食品。比如，一些食品生產(chǎn)商為了使食品更好看、更好吃，通常會(huì)過(guò)量使用添加劑。另外，食品監(jiān)管部門以及政策實(shí)施部門也應(yīng)承擔(dān)責(zé)任，原因是很多時(shí)候他們并沒(méi)有嚴(yán)格實(shí)施相關(guān)法律和規(guī)定。有時(shí)候，破壞法律的生產(chǎn)商沒(méi)有受到嚴(yán)厲懲罰。再次，消費(fèi)者往往購(gòu)買和食用口味更好的食物。殊不知口味越好的食物添加的配料可能越多，而這可能對(duì)人們的健康危害更大。
考慮到問(wèn)題的嚴(yán)重性，在情況變得更糟糕之前，我們必須采取有效的解決措施。首先，相關(guān)部門一定要更加嚴(yán)格地執(zhí)行相關(guān)法律和規(guī)定。其次，還應(yīng)提高公眾對(duì)食品質(zhì)量的重要性的意識(shí)。只有采取這些舉措，我們才能夠盡快成功地解決這一問(wèn)題。
范文點(diǎn)評(píng)
1. 開(kāi)篇說(shuō)明隨著生活水平的提高，人們?cè)絹?lái)越重視日常飲食。
2. 自然過(guò)渡：食品安全問(wèn)題頻出，人們?nèi)找鎿?dān)憂。
3. 首段末句明確指出至少有三個(gè)原因促使食品安全問(wèn)題的發(fā)生。
4. 分三個(gè)層次論證了自己的觀點(diǎn)，論據(jù)充分，論證有力。
5. 末段總結(jié)全文，重申觀點(diǎn)，并指出我們應(yīng)采取的辦法和措施。

句法點(diǎn)評(píng)
1. Since they aim to make more profits, they may take the risk of breaking laws and sacrificing consumers’ health, producing unhealthy food.
這句話中包含了一個(gè)since引導(dǎo)的原因狀語(yǔ)從句，此外還包含現(xiàn)在分詞producing引導(dǎo)的成分作伴隨狀語(yǔ)。
2. Firstly, it is imperative that relevant laws and regulations should be enforced in a stricter way.
在這句話中，使用了“It is imperative that...”的句式，相當(dāng)于“It is necessary that...”，其中，that引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要用虛擬語(yǔ)氣，即“should+動(dòng)詞原形（should可以省略）”的形式。
