　　考研英語作文范文：

　　Indicated above are pictures that show trees play a vital role in water and soil conservation. In the left hand picture, people are fleeing from voracious sand dunes because they cut down all the trees. The caption reads, "As the sand advances, we retreat." In the right hand picture, the people have returned carrying tools, water and samplings for the reforestation of the land. We are informed that, "As we advances, the sand retreats."

　　It seems that the cartoonist is sending a message about the significance of trees in water and soil conservation and the need for everyone to fight against the danger of the desertification. In fact, what he is saying is if we do not fight against the sand, it will drive us away from the land. If we let this situation go as it is, our environment will suffer a great destruction.

　　The best way to fight back against the greedy desert is made clear in the second picture. There the local people are vigorously setting about the task of planting trees to reclaim the land and make it fertile. The fact that there are three people in the picture, each with a different job suggests that cooperative efforts is one of the keys to success in the battle against soil erosion and only in this way can desertification be finally defeated.

　　譯文：

　　如圖所示，樹木對水土保持起著至關(guān)重要的作用。左圖中，人們被貪婪的沙丘追趕，因為他們砍伐了所有的樹木。標(biāo)題寫著：“沙進(jìn)我退”。右圖中，人們拿著工具、水和樹苗回來重新植樹造林。我們被告知：“我進(jìn)沙退”。

　　我認(rèn)為，漫畫家要告訴我們的是：樹木對水土保持的重要性，以及每個人參與抵制沙化威脅的必要性。實際上，他要說的是如果我們不與沙漠做斗爭，它會把我們從土地上趕走。如果我們讓這種情況繼續(xù)下去，環(huán)境將遭到巨大的破壞。

　　第二幅圖清楚地說明了擊退貪婪沙漠的方法。那里的人們正在熱情高漲地著手植樹造林、收回土地，使它變得肥沃。圖中三個人每人干不同的工作，這說明合作努力是成功防止土壤侵蝕的關(guān)鍵之一,只有這樣才能戰(zhàn)勝沙漠化。
