Example

The comparison indicates the phenomenon of education inequality in modern China. (facts) School-age country children are often dropping out of school due to poverty. Even those who managed to stay in school are still suffering from the low standards of educational facilities and academic quantities. Comparatively, city children have much better opportunities to receive good education. (results) Thus, school in the countryside generally have much lower enrollment rates than those in the city, which in turn worsens the problem of educational inequality.

Only if we do these can we have more social justice and thus make our society more harmonious

Health Care

(Description) From the picture, we can see that the old man was suffering from heart trouble/attack. He had to go to hospital for medical care. When he saw the medical bill with $5,0000 from the hospital, he was so shocked that he couldn’t stand on his feet. It was beyond what he could afford ． It’s really another heart attack for him.

Sample

Analysis

At present, many people can’t afford heavy medical fees. (Results) Because of this, they may get into deep debt in order to get proper medical care . Worse still, some cannot borrow any money so they have to bear the pain of diseases or wait for the last day of their life. What a pity!

Solutions To solve the problem,we strongly call for the medical expenses to be reduced ． The government should build up medical insurance system ,and try its best to explore and develop a new health care so that everyone will be able to enjoy their life as long as possible. /Only in this way, can we enjoy our life as long as possible.

DescriptionAnalysisSolution

From the picture, we can see that pollution is posing a threat to our earth, which comes in many ways. Millions of chimneys of the factories are pouring heavy somok into air, which causes serious air pollution. A large amount of waste water from the factories pollutes water, making our rivers fishless and our water unfit to drink and swim in. Furthermore, a lot of trees have been cut down without proper plans, which contributes to the soil being washed away. It seems that we really have no clean place to live(Description + Analysis)

The pollution is so serious that we have to find effective solutions to it. As far as I am concerned, the government should pass laws to reduce polluted air. Some measures should be taken to purify the water before it is poured into the rivers of the seas. We should plant more trees to keep the soil in place. What’s more, people should be further educated to realize the importance of environmental protection. Only in this way, we will have a clean and tidy environment.
