　　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形成鮮明對照的場景，第一幅畫中的男生在網絡游戲中虛擲了所有的時間和金錢，而第二幅畫中的女生卻在勤勉地學習。可以很容易得出結論：對于刻苦學習的學生，一個美好的未來在等候著他們;而浪費學費玩游戲的學生沒有什么指望了。上面這兩幅畫激勵學生們珍惜在校的時光和受教育的機會。

　　經過多年的夢寐以求終于跨進大學門檻的學生，卻往往迷失了自己。因為沒有了父母常在身邊的支持和建議，或是缺乏與老師的溝通，很多學生找不到自己未來的奮斗目標。而這種困惑就使得一些學生扔掉書本，靠各種消遣——包括玩網絡游戲——來打發時光。大學生不應只空談理想，應該認真地為之奮斗，而沒有明確的目標則會讓一個人在度過他至關緊要的幾年后頭腦空空。

　　沉湎于網絡游戲只會導致失敗，而堅持不懈的學習則能收獲成功。大學生們一定要珍惜在校時光，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,不同的學生在如何度過他們大學時光方面可能有著不同的看法：一個男學生整天沉溺于電腦游戲，浪費了大量的時間和金錢;而一個女學生卻整天埋頭書海，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， 一些學生幻想他們走進大學就可以一勞永逸，因此他們不惜浪費時間和金錢一味地尋求快樂，而不去集中精力讀書。不可否認，每個人都有選擇自己生活道路的權利。但是大學生應當樹立目標并為之奮斗。大學階段是我們人生中最為重要的時光，在此期間我們能夠為未來的學術成就做好充分的準備，因此一旦有這樣的機會，我們就應該更充分地利用這段時光。樹立目標是對生活的一種積極態度。一般說來，當人們想去達到自己目的時他們就會更有動力，并且當他們取得成功時就會更加有成就感。這對大學生來說也不失為一條真理。

　　成功需要樹立目標并為之努力奮斗。為我們的大學生活樹立目標將會為我們的成功創造良好機會，同時也使我們能夠挑戰自我，奮力拼搏。
