| 【题目】 It has recently been announced that a new restaurant may be built in your neighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer. 【范文】 A New Restaurant In my opinion, restaurants serve a vital purpose in any community. They provide people with a place to meet and enjoy their leisure time. They can also be a convenience to those who have no time to prepare a meal at home. For these reasons, I would support a plan to build a new restaurant in my neighborhood. Eating together is an important social activity. It gives people time to relax and catch up with what their family or friends have been doing. Restaurants can provide a special atmosphere for a meal and add variety to a nightly routine. Furthermore, in this busy society, it is often difficult to find the time and energy to prepare a meal after working hard all day. At times like this dining out can really be a big help, and having a restaurant located in the neighborhood only makes it more convenient. Of course, there may be some disadvantages to a new restaurant. It may cause noise or traffic problems. But I believe such problems can be worked out amicably between the residents and the restaurant managers. After all, the restaurant owner wants to keep his customers happy. To sum up, I believe the advantages of having a restaurant in the neighborhood outweigh the disadvantages, and so I would support this proposal.
一家新餐厅 我认为社区里的餐厅具有非常重要的功能。它们能提供给人们见面以及享受闲暇时间的场所。餐厅对于那些没有时间在家做饭的人而言也非常方便。基于这些原因，我赞成在我家附近开一家新餐厅。 和他人一起用餐是一项重要的社交活动，这样能让人们有时间放松，并知道家人或朋友的近况。餐厅可以提供特殊的用餐氛围，给夜晚的例行事务增添变化。此外，在这个忙碌的社会中，在一整天努力工作之后，人们常常很难有时间和精力自己准备饭菜。在这种情况下，外出用餐真的是一大帮助，而社区有餐厅是最方便的了。 当然，新餐厅或许有一些缺点，它可能会导致噪音或交通问题。但我相信，这些问题都可以经由居民和餐厅经营者共同和睦地解决。毕竟，餐厅老板是想要让顾客愉快。总之，我认为住家附近开餐厅，其优点胜过缺点。因此，我支持这项提议。 【注释】 serve v.适合(目的) vital adj.非常重要的 community n.社区 leisure time 空闲时间 neighborhood n.邻近地区 catch up with赶上 atmosphere n.气氛 variety n.变化 nightly adj.夜间的 routine n.例行公事 furthermore adv.此外 energy n.精力 dine out 出外用餐(=eat out ) locate v.设立 disadvantage n.缺点 work out 解决(=solve ) amicably adv.友好地；和睦地 resident n.居民 to sum up 总之 outweigh v.胜过 proposal n.提议 |
