第一段|描述图画: 开篇描述图画,一个年轻人牺牲自己的健康,每天工作24小时,进而引发人们对过劳死的思考。

① The drawing does mirror a not uncommon social phenomenon that is really thought-provoking. ②As is vividly shown in the cartoon, a young man has to work 24 hours every day and the death evil pulls him back. ③ Under this circumstance, hardly can he touch his dream. ④ Simple as the picture is, the symbolic meaning is as deep as the sea.
①这幅画确实反映了一个并不罕见的社会现象,的确发人深省。②如图中生动描述的一样,一个年轻人每天必须工作24小时,死亡恶魔将他往后拉。③在这种情况下,他几乎无法触及他的梦想。④画面虽简单,但其象征意义却如大海般深邃。
① Without a doubt, the metaphorical and impressive picture sets us an alarm that overwork is detrimental to us both physically and mentally. ② Why does such a phenomenon emerge? ③ I can think of no better reasons than the following. ④ To begin with , most corporations encourage their staff to work extra time in order to get extra money. ⑤In fact, the young have to seize every opportunity to make money, especially under the pressure of modern society. ⑥ However, many people might have failed to notice that physical health is of great importance. ⑦ It is hard to balance work and life. ⑧ Overload working is nothing but overdrawing life . ⑨ Were the situation to continue, we would pay a high price.
①毫无疑问,这幅隐喻性的、令人印象深刻的图画给我们敲响了警钟:过度劳累对我们的身心都是有害的。②为什么会出现这种现象呢?③我想不出比下面这些更好的理由了。④首先,大多数公司鼓励员工加班以获得额外的收入。⑤事实上,年轻人不得不抓住每个赚钱的机会,尤其是在现代社会的压力下。⑥然而,很多人都没有注意到身体健康的重要性。⑦工作与生活很难平衡。⑧超负荷的工作只不过是在透支生命。⑨如果这种情况继续下去,我们将付出高昂的代价。
① Life is shorter than you expected. ② Considering every aspect of this phenomenon, we should bear in mind that physical health is not only necessary but also indispensable. ③Therefore we ourselves have to take practical actions, such as having a trip during holidays and taking exercises after work. ④Just as an old saying goes, “ All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy .”
①生命比你想象的要短暂。②考虑到这一现象的方方面面,我们应该牢记身体健康不仅是必要的,而且是不可或缺的。③因此,我们自己必须采取实际行动,如假期旅行和下班后锻炼。④正如一句老话所说:“只工作,不玩耍,聪明孩子也变傻。”
