參考范文：

        There is a common saying: "Man in his forties is a flower in bloom, but woman is soy­bean residue.”A bit vulgar this saying may be, but it does tell us such a fact that man in his forties really possesses undeniable fascination.

In his career, a man at this age possesses the maturity and steadiness that a young lad lacks. Enthusiastic and warm-hearted as a lad may be, he is more brave than steady. Just like a school child, he is likely to make the mistake "Learning without thought is labor lost.” On the contrary, being an adult man, who possesses both vigor and maturity, he is steady yet full of zeal; wise and far-sighted, yet still vigorous in his work. Man at this stage is rich in experience and fond of learning and making progress.

There is no doubt that human activity has an effect on the planet. Some people maintain that human activity makes our earth a better place to live while others contradict this. Personally, I agree with the latter opinion. To begin with, we can see the evidence of mankind's endeavors all around us. Look­ing around, we may find out easily what we have done to the planet, which once was a blue sky with forests covering the whole lands as home to a diversity of creatures. The result of the examination may give us a surprise and force us to admit that the situation is not good for us. Waste is being dumped into rivers, landfills are everywhere and we may have noticed that there may well be several reports in today's newspapers about the leakage of the sunken oil tankers that pollute the sea seriously. The ecosystem of our world is at the edge of breakdown.

Secondly, though our planet gives us everything we need, her greedy son, our human beings, is killing the self-giving mother. We are too avaricious in taking what we want without giving anything back. What's more, we always want to get more than we actually need—more clothes, more food, more furniture, more factories, more cars—the more the better, and maybe the more the faster to bury ourselves by our own hands. You may argue that I am too pessimistic, but such things are facts as the sand storm happened in Beijing, the dead elephants without their beautiful ivories, the barren ground caused by over grazing, the sunken city made because of excessive exploration of groundwater, the tendency of global warming as a result of excessive emission of carbon-dioxide and many other envi­ronment problems. And the natural resources that are used as the main energy are not limitless as we once thought. Such energy as fuel, coal is becoming perilous and will be used up one day, and what can we do then? We can't wait to that day; we must do something to prevent things from becoming worse and worse. Maybe I am a little pessimistic, but to make things more serious than they really are can draw more attention. So as you see, people need to respect the Earth and try every means to preserve it. If we don't, what kind of future will we have? (394)

分析：

    該題要求考生對下面的觀點發(fā)表自己的見解了人類活動是破壞了地球還是使地球變得更適合人類生存。這篇范文緊扣人類活動破壞了地球這一主題展開論述，觀點明確。結構上采取了總一分—總，清晰明了。首先，第一段提出論點：地球正在遭  受人類活動的破壞。接著文章從兩方面展開論述：一是在我們周圍隨處可見人類破壞地球的“罪證”。在此，作者重點列舉了污染這一事實佐證；二是盡管地球提供了人類所需的一切，但貪婪的人類卻從不滿足于自己的所得，反而向地球母親索取更多。作者在此用了一連串的排比，“more clothes, more food，more furniture...”，讀起來朗朗上口，極具說服力；同時也列舉了大量形象生動的例子，如北京的沙塵暴、因過度開采地下水而塌陷的城市等證明自己對此并不是悲規(guī)主義者，而是事實如此，呼吁人們對此重視。最后進行總結，并提出建議“we must do something to prevent things from becoming worse and worse”，同時提出質疑: “If we don't, what kind of future will we have?”最后一個問題發(fā)人深省，深化了文章主題。
