大学英语作文:Getting Rid of Street Pollution 清除街道污染

Currently, when you are walking in the street, youwill find some strange names of shops and restaurants on both sides. Thesenames suggest a blind worship for foreign culture or that sound a feudalflavor. Names are by no means just a sign. Names convey historical and culturalinformation that reflects the trend of the times and helps shape peoples ideasand thoughts as well as ways of thinking.

In recent years, a number of shops and restaurantshave given themselves names that sound like foreign or use words with a strongfeudal connotation. This reflects the trend that under the influence ofmaterialism, some people worship a lifestyle of Western countries and thesocial status of past emperors and their luxurious life. In the names of theseshops and restaurants, there is no hint of national pride and the fact thatmany shop owners use names such as Dafuhao(Big Rich), Diwang(Emperor),Erfang(Concubine) shows that there is no concept of a society in which peopleare equal. They crave wealth and power while many ordinary people arestruggling to earn a decent living by working hard.

These names, no doubt, have a very bad influence onour young people. They instill in their young minds a similar mentality: ablind respect for things Western and a blind worship for rotten feudalideology. personally, to remove these names is an educational project. It is agood measure to take to rid our streets of such visual pollution. I should say,however, that abolishing the names only is not enough. We need a long-termeducation to establish a patriotic attitude and a genuine international visionin our people.

最近，当你走在大街上的时候你就会发现街道两边一些奇怪的商店和餐馆名称。这些名称暗示着一种盲目崇拜外国文化的风气或散发着一股封建的味道。名字绝不仅仅是一个标志。名字传递着反映时代趋势的历史文化信息，帮助人们形成意见想法和思维模式。

近年，一些上商店和餐馆喜欢给店铺起听上去像外国的名字，或者使用带有浓厚的封建意味的词。这反映了一种趋势，即在物质主义影响下，有的人崇尚西方国家的生活方式以及过去皇帝们的社会地位和奢华生活。在这些商店和餐馆的名字当中并没有一丝的民族自豪感，事实是很多店主使用诸如大富豪 这样的名字。帝王，二房表明在人人平等的社会没有观念可言。他们渴望财富和权力而很多普通老百姓都在努力通过辛勤的劳动过上体面的生活。

这些名字无疑会对年轻人产生不好的影响。这些名字会在他们幼小的心灵里灌输一种类似的心态：盲目尊重西方事物和盲目崇拜封建腐败的意识形态。在我看来，去除这些名字是一项教育工程。清除街道上这种视觉污染是一项不错的措施。但是，我应该说仅仅废除这些名字是不够的，我们需要一个长期的教育，以建立一种爱国态度和人民真正的国际化视野。
