　　③ Human activities have negative effects on plant and animal species. Some people think it is too late to do anything about this problem. Others believe effective measures can be taken to improve this situation. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

　　Ø joint adj. 联合的；共同的

　　Body 1

　　Admittedly, it is justifiable for some to advocate that individuals can do little, since solving environmental problems, as a global issue, requires nations, organisations, companies, and individuals to get involved. Compared with average people, who can merely persuade others to follow the rules and norms, the governing authority possesses thelegislative power to enact strict laws, issue corresponding policies, and effectively enforce them in order to safeguard the environment. For example, heavy fines can deter both institutions and individuals to behave properly. In comparison, individuals are not empowered to require others to do so.// However, what average people do cannot be ignored.

　　解析

　　让步：解决环境问题涉及广泛，需要各个群体加入，而个人所能做的事情在政府面前确实较小，因为没有政府的立法权和执法权。// 反驳：个人所作所为不可忽视

　　Ø norm n. 规范；准则

　　Ø legislative adj. 立法的

　　Ø enact vt. 制定（法律）

　　Ø enforce vt. 实施,使生效

　　Ø safeguard vt. 保护

　　Ø deter vt. 威慑

　　Ø empower vt. 授权〔某人或某组织做某事〕

　　Body 2

　　As a matter of fact, only when average citizens take certain actions will the effects brought by laws and rules be maximised. To illustrate, even though heavy fines can serve as a deterrent, people may comply with the minimum environmental requirements set out by law owing to either the absence of a sense of responsibility as being qualified planet-mates or the failure tocompromise with their convenient lives which are partly based on the sacrifice of natural resources. In this case, the aforementioned laws and rules cannot be as effectual as expected. For example, charging for vehicle taxes may reduce the usage of private cars to some extent, while big differences can be made if the owners leave their cars in the garage voluntarily.

　　解析

　　立论：政府政策实施需民众配合，否则收效甚微

　　Ø deterrent n. 威慑物

　　Ø comply with vi. 服从；遵守

　　Ø compromise vi. 妥协；让步

　　Ø effectual adj. 奏效的

　　04

　　In a nutshell, though the government have greater capability in coping with environmental problems by enacting relevant laws and rules, they are not as effective as expected without endeavours of individual citizens.
