(一)预测范文
Dear editors,
Many college students have no concept of thriftin their mind. They take it for granted that they spend the money provided by their parentsbefore they enter into society.
This extravagant spendingis primarily caused by the following factors. First of all, nowadays most of the students are born in only-child families. They are the apple in their family's eyes and naturally get more care and pocket money.In addition, with the improvement of living standards, parents can afford higher expenditure of their children.
From my point of view, a college student, as a pure consumer, should learn to be thrifty. We should limit our expenditure on daily necessities and not buy whatever we want regardless of their prices.The habit of being thriftycan help us form right values and is favorable to our future development.
Yours truly,
Li Ming
(二)参考译文
尊敬的编辑:
很多大学生的思想中没有节俭的概念。他们理所当然地认为在进入社会之前可以花父母给的钱。
这种奢侈消费主要由下述原因造成:首先,现在大多数学生出生于独生子女家庭。他们是家人眼里的珍宝,自然得到更多的关心和零花钱。其次,随着生活水平的提高,父母们可以负担孩子们更高的花费。
我认为,大学生作为纯粹的消费者,应该学会节俭。我们应该限制日常必需品的开销,同时不能不论价格随意消费。节俭的习惯可以帮助我们形成正确的价值观,并且有益于我们未来的发展。
您真诚的,
李明
