答案     Do Not Invite Self-destruction
    The earth has been nurturing human beings for generations, providing us with abundant resources that make us survive and prosper. However, as Gandhi once put it, "Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need, but not every man’s greed." It is well established that as a result of people’s limitless greed, the earth will not benefit our offspring in the future.
    Blinded by greed, we often take it for granted that "I came, I saw, I conquered." However, instead of being conquered, the earth is taking revenge on human beings. For instance, droughts and are occurring more frequently nowadays as a result of excessive deforestation. What’s more, heat waves, hurricanes and thunderstorms as well as other extreme weather events are are becoming more intense.
    As far as I am concerned, to avoid a tragic destiny, human beings should adhere to a faith that we should not yield to the temptation of material interests, but attach great importance to long-term benefits and sustainable development for the sake of our descendants. Otherwise, we are bound to face a day of dreadful consequences and even self-destruction.

解析     第一段:引出引言并提出论点:地球以后将不会再造福人类。本段首先提到地球的巨大作用,接着使用However,话锋一转,指出由于人类的贪婪对地球造成的破坏,将导致地球很难再造福人类。
    第二段:通过列举洪涝、飓风等自然灾害来例证地球对人类的报复。本段中However,Forinstance和What’s more等逻辑连接词的应用是亮点,使行文逻辑清晰。
    第三段:本段中使用了not…but句式,指出人类不应该屈从于物质利益的诱惑,而应该注意长期利益和可持续发展,否则人类将自取灭亡。
