2.出現(xiàn)這一現(xiàn)象的原因
3.我對這一現(xiàn)象的看法和建議

Answer 1

Nowadays the phenomena of excessive packaging of goods are prevailing in our society: clothes swathed in tissue paper, placed in cardboard box and finally wrapped in well-designed plastic bags, imported bottles of grape wine packed in wooden boxes, fruits put in hand-woven baskets, to name but a few.
There are several causes of excessive packaging. The first reason is that a large number of companies believe that they can attract customers’ attention and stimulate their purchasing desire by over-packaging their goods, thus gaining more profits. On the other hand, quite a number of consumers mistakenly hold that the more delicate the package is, the better the quality will be, thus encouraging excessive packaging.
In my point of view, excessive packaging has disastrous consequences, including the loss of precious resources, excessive consumption of water and energy, and unnecessary extraction of scarce land for landfill.
To solve the problem, it’s necessary to take the following measures. First, laws and regulations must be made to restrict excessive packaging of companies. In addition, we need to raise consumer’s awareness that excessive packaging doesn’t equal to high quality and advocate packaging recycling.

此文為說明文：首先，審題：時態(tài)，因為是說明的現(xiàn)狀及自己的觀點，所以用一般現(xiàn)在時為主。第一段：說明許多商品存在過度包裝的這個現(xiàn)象，來引出話題。第二段：對其原因進行分析，從廠家和消費者雙方的角度說明原因。第三段：說明自己對此現(xiàn)象的看法。最后一段：自己的建議。針對其原因，提出有針對性的解決辦法。
【亮點分析】
文章分為四段，分述現(xiàn)存的一種社會現(xiàn)象—過度包裝、過度包裝的原因、自己的看法和改變現(xiàn)狀的建議。層次分明，結(jié)構(gòu)清晰。文中用到了像：phenomena，to name but a few，stimulate ,thus, mistakenly, delicate, disastrous consequences, restrict, raise one’s awareness, equal, advocate ,in my point of view等高級詞匯和短語，使得文章表達準確、地道、流暢。
