Question

最近，網(wǎng)上展開(kāi)一場(chǎng)關(guān)于“教科書(shū)是否要循環(huán)使用”的辯論。假如你是Li Hua，請(qǐng)你向報(bào)社寫(xiě)信談?wù)勀阕约旱囊恍┫敕�。要點(diǎn)如下：

1. 據(jù)說(shuō)我國(guó)的教科書(shū)壽命一般是半年，而美國(guó)則是五年。這說(shuō)明浪費(fèi)嚴(yán)重；

2. 我國(guó)有兩億兩千萬(wàn)學(xué)生，每年要用三十億本教科書(shū)，這就需要消耗一千一百萬(wàn)棵樹(shù)木。如果將教科書(shū)的壽命延長(zhǎng)

年的話，那么將節(jié)省好多樹(shù)木；

3. 許多貧困家庭的學(xué)生買(mǎi)不起教科書(shū)，如果將不用的教科書(shū)贈(zèng)給他們豈不是更好？

4. 你的看法（至少兩點(diǎn)）。

要求：1. 語(yǔ)句通順，結(jié)構(gòu)合理；

2. 開(kāi)頭和結(jié)尾已給出，不計(jì)入總詞數(shù)（字?jǐn)?shù)：150左右）。

Answer 1

One possible version:

Dear Editor,

Recently there has been an argument about the reuse of textbooks on the internet. I am writing to talk about it.

As we all know, the average lifespan of a copy of a textbook is only half a year in our country while in America it is five years or so, which shows we waste too much. There are 220 million students consuming 3 billion textbooks each year, so about 11 million trees are needed to produce them! If the lifespan of textbooks could be extended for one more year, a large number of trees could be saved each year. In addition, many children from poor families can’t afford textbooks. Will it be good if we can afford them to reuse the books?

So I suggest that all of us should encourage students to take care of their textbooks, and not only does it do good to us but also to nature. At the same time, this can also help us develop awareness of thriftiness.

Best wishes,

Yours truly,

Li Hua
