Human beings are social animals. The society that we live in is made up of tens of thousands of individuals like you and me. Thus the importance of having a sense of social responsibility is self-evident.
In order to have an ideal environment, each of us has to bear a shared responsibility. Take environmental protection for example, we all know that the Earth is becoming warmer and warmer due to the greenhouse effect. It is high time for us to take action to reduce pollution. Now many Chinese cities are beginning to enforce garbage classification regulation. Sorting waste into hazardous waste, recyclable waste, household food waste and so on is without doubt a troublesome task for everyone, yet it is our shared responsibility to support this move. And only by everyone's commitment can we enjoy a better environment.
All in all, a sense of social responsibility is what a citizen cannot live without. If we were fish, then society would be the sea we live in. Saving the sea is saving ourselves.
人类是社会性动物。我们所生活的社会是由成千上万个你我这样的人组成的。因此，有社会责任感的重要性不言而喻。
为了拥有理想的环境，我们每个人都必须承担起共同的责任。以环境保护为例，我们都知道，由于温室效应，地球正变得越来越温暖。是我们采取行动减少污染的时候了。现在，中国的许多城市正在开始实施垃圾分类的规定。将垃圾分类为有害垃圾、可回收垃圾、家庭食物垃圾等，对每个人来说无疑都是一项十分麻烦的任务，但支持这项行动是我们共同的责任。只有通过每个人的贡献，我们才能享有更美好的环境。
总而言之，公民在生活中不能没有社会责任感。如果我们是鱼，那么社会就是我们生活的海洋。拯救海洋就是拯救我们自己。

1. Human beings are social animals. The society that we live in is made up of tens of thousands of individuals like you and me. Thus the importance of having a sense of social responsibility is self-evident.
文章首段首先明确人与社会的关系，即个人组成了社会。然后用Thus承前启后，指出社会责任感的重要性不言而喻。
2. In order to..., each of us has to...Take environmental protection for example...It is high time for us to...Sorting waste...is without doubt a troublesome task for everyone, yet it is our shared responsibility to support this move. And only by...can we...
第二段以In order to开头，提出每个人都要承担社会责任；然后用Take...for example来引出例子；随后，It is high time for...to...句型的使用突出了环境保护的紧迫感；without doubt的肯定语气和yet的转折形成鲜明对比；最后用only引导的倒装句重申主题。
3. All in all, a sense of social responsibility is what a citizen cannot live without. If we were fish, then society would be the sea we live in. Saving the sea is saving ourselves.
最后一段首先用All in all来做总结，然后用If引导的虚拟条件句提出假设，形象地说明了社会责任感的重要性。
