【參考范文】

From the cartoons given above, we can see that the cow is explaining to the little baby that it is not her fault for giving the poisoned power milk/the keeper is feeding the pig with Clenbuterol . The cartoon wisely reflects the food safety issues which occur in recent years. Food safety related to people’s health and it concerns about people’s basic livelihood. Since the Sanlu Incident occurred in 2008, the entire society was increasingly concerned about food safety issue. It was in this context that the food safety issue has been referred to an unprecedented height.

Problems leading to food safety are as follows: 1) using poor quality raw materials in the food manufacturing process; 2) adding toxic substances; 3) excessive use of food additives; 4) abusing of chemical additives and so on. There are many reasons that cause this problem. It is regulators, producers, and even consumers who share the responsibilities.

As Confucius instructed: better late than never. Prompt and strict measures should be taken to turn back this evil trend. The government should launch a massive moral campaign to educate all citizens and draw up tougher laws to crack down on those irresponsible corporations and prohibit them from entering the food industry again. I am firmly convinced that through our combined efforts we are bound to enjoy more risk-free foods in the days ahead.

【參考譯文】

從上面的卡通圖片我們可以看到：一只奶牛正在向這個小寶寶解釋說生產有毒奶粉不是她的錯/飼養員正在給豬喂瘦肉精。該卡通圖片巧妙地反映了近年來我們社會中存在的食品安全問題。食品安全問題關系到人民健康，是最基本的民生問題。自2008年“三鹿事件”發生以來，全社會對食品安全問題的關注越來越高。正是在這種情況下，食品安全問題被提到了空前的高度。

食品安全主要存在以下問題：在生產食品過程使用劣質的原材料，添加有毒物質，過量使用防腐劑，濫用化學添加劑等。引起這一問題的原因有很多，監管者，生產者甚至是消費者都有責任。

正如孔子教導的：晚做總比不做好。我們應該采取及時嚴厲的措施來扭轉這一不好的局面。政府應該發起大量的道德運動以教育所有的市民，并制定更嚴厲的法律打擊那些不負責任的企業，并禁止他們再次進入食品行業。我堅信，通過我們的共同努力，我們一定會在未來的日子中享受更多的無風險食品。
