　　范文：

　　The drawing shows a man who deposits a small amount of money into the bank and that turns out to be some fortune when he takes away the money later. One might think it is a bank advertisement, but in fact, as the subtitle suggests, it is a promotion that encourages all people to form the habit of exercising.

　　The artist uses this unique metaphor in order to endow us with the concept that, to habitually exercises is like to deposit money bit by bit in the bank. If we manage to exercise every day for a considerable period of time, the habit would contribute invaluably to our health. I firmly believe that exercise should become a life-long pursuit, part and parcel of our life. In this way, not only will our longevity be greatly lengthened, the improvement and maintenance of health could also lead to a happier life.

　　At the eve of China's hosting the 2008 Olympic Games, I think it is high time to launch a campaign spurring every citizen to exercise. Though being difficult at the beginning, we should be aware that exercise is a long-term investment that might benefit us even more than our anticipation.

　　譯文：

　　這幅圖刻畫了一個(gè)男人把一筆錢存入銀行，以后當(dāng)他取出這筆錢的時(shí)候已經(jīng)是一筆不小的財(cái)富了。我們可能會(huì)以為這是一個(gè)銀行的廣告，但是實(shí)際上題目暗示了這是在鼓勵(lì)人們養(yǎng)成鍛煉身體的好習(xí)慣。

　　通過(guò)這個(gè)獨(dú)特的比喻，作畫者意在讓我們接受這樣的一個(gè)概念，即鍛煉身體的習(xí)慣就像往銀行中一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)地存錢。如果我們堅(jiān)持在一段時(shí)間里每天鍛煉，這個(gè)習(xí)慣對(duì)于我們健康的貢獻(xiàn)將是無(wú)價(jià)的。而且我堅(jiān)信鍛煉是一項(xiàng)一生都應(yīng)該堅(jiān)持的事情，是我們生活的一個(gè)重要組成部分。這不僅能夠延長(zhǎng)人們的壽命，而且健康的改進(jìn)和保持會(huì)給人們帶來(lái)一個(gè)更加幸?？鞓?lè)的生活。

　　因此，在北京舉辦2008年奧運(yùn)會(huì)的前夕，我認(rèn)為這是一個(gè)非常好的時(shí)機(jī)發(fā)起全民健身的熱潮。盡管堅(jiān)持這個(gè)習(xí)慣在一開(kāi)始比較困難，但是我們應(yīng)該相信鍛煉是一種一生的投資，我們可能得到比我們預(yù)期更多的收獲。
