　　范文1：

　　These two cartoons show two contrasting scenes. While the male student spends all histime and money playing Internet games, the female student studies diligently. One could easilyargue that a bright future awaits the students who study hard, while those who waste tuitionplaying games have little to look forward to. The above images encourage students to valuetheir time in school and take advantage of educational opportunities.

　　While students dream of being accepted into college for years, they often become lost onceadmitted. Without their parents' constant support and advice, or because of limitedcommunication with teachers, many students are unable to focus on their future goals. Suchconfusion leads some to forget their studies and resort to playing on the Internet, amongother forms of recreation.

　　Students should not only keep their ambitions in mind, but also seriously strive towardsthem.Without a clear purpose, one might easily waste crucial years neglecting one's studies.

　　Constantly playing on the Internet leads to failure, while continuously studying guaranteessuccess. Students need to appreciate their time in school, and work hard in order to ensure agood future.

　　這兩幅漫畫描述了兩個(gè)形成鮮明對照的場景，第一幅畫中的男生在網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲中虛擲了所有的時(shí)間和金錢，而第二幅畫中的女生卻在勤勉地學(xué)習(xí)。可以很容易得出結(jié)論：對于刻苦學(xué)習(xí)的學(xué)生，一個(gè)美好的未來在等候著他們;而浪費(fèi)學(xué)費(fèi)玩游戲的學(xué)生沒有什么指望了。上面這兩幅畫激勵(lì)學(xué)生們珍惜在校的時(shí)光和受教育的機(jī)會。

　　經(jīng)過多年的夢寐以求終于跨進(jìn)大學(xué)門檻的學(xué)生，卻往往迷失了自己。因?yàn)闆]有了父母常在身邊的支持和建議，或是缺乏與老師的溝通，很多學(xué)生找不到自己未來的奮斗目標(biāo)。而這種困惑就使得一些學(xué)生扔掉書本，靠各種消遣——包括玩網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲——來打發(fā)時(shí)光。大學(xué)生不應(yīng)只空談理想，應(yīng)該認(rèn)真地為之奮斗，而沒有明確的目標(biāo)則會讓一個(gè)人在度過他至關(guān)緊要的幾年后頭腦空空。

　　沉湎于網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲只會導(dǎo)致失敗，而堅(jiān)持不懈的學(xué)習(xí)則能收獲成功。大學(xué)生們一定要珍惜在校時(shí)光，為了美好的未來而努力。

　　范文2：

　　As can be seen from the cartoons,different students may have different way son how tospend their college days: a boy student indulges himself in computer games, wasting moneyand time; while a girl student buries herself in a large pile of books, striving to get prepared forthe future.

　　After the fierce competition in the entrance examination, some students may have theillusion that they are secure at last in college. Therefore they do not concentrate on theirstudies and waste money and time. Needless to say, we all have the right to choose our ownway of life. However, college students should define and realize their goals.Time in college isone of the most important periods in our life when we can further prepare ourselvesacademically for a successful future; therefore we should make the most of it when we have thisopportunity. Setting goals is an active way of living. Generally speaking, people are bettermotivated when they want to attain the goal they set for themselves and have a sense offulfillment when they succeed. This is true for college students as well.

　　Success requires both setting goals and working hard. Setting goals for our time in collegewill ensure our chances of success at a time when we should challenge and exert ourselves.

　　譯文：

　　從這兩幅漫畫中我們可以看到,不同的學(xué)生在如何度過他們大學(xué)時(shí)光方面可能有著不同的看法：一個(gè)男學(xué)生整天沉溺于電腦游戲，浪費(fèi)了大量的時(shí)間和金錢;而一個(gè)女學(xué)生卻整天埋頭書海，如饑似渴地讀書為自己的未來而奮斗。

　　在激烈的高考競爭過后， 一些學(xué)生幻想他們走進(jìn)大學(xué)就可以一勞永逸，因此他們不惜浪費(fèi)時(shí)間和金錢一味地尋求快樂，而不去集中精力讀書。不可否認(rèn)，每個(gè)人都有選擇自己生活道路的權(quán)利。但是大學(xué)生應(yīng)當(dāng)樹立目標(biāo)并為之奮斗。大學(xué)階段是我們?nèi)松凶顬橹匾臅r(shí)光，在此期間我們能夠?yàn)槲磥淼膶W(xué)術(shù)成就做好充分的準(zhǔn)備，因此一旦有這樣的機(jī)會，我們就應(yīng)該更充分地利用這段時(shí)光。樹立目標(biāo)是對生活的一種積極態(tài)度。一般說來，當(dāng)人們想去達(dá)到自己目的時(shí)他們就會更有動力，并且當(dāng)他們?nèi)〉贸晒r(shí)就會更加有成就感。這對大學(xué)生來說也不失為一條真理。

　　成功需要樹立目標(biāo)并為之努力奮斗。為我們的大學(xué)生活樹立目標(biāo)將會為我們的成功創(chuàng)造良好機(jī)會，同時(shí)也使我們能夠挑戰(zhàn)自我，奮力拼搏。
