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 exercise s 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.
译文：
这幅图刻画了一个男人把一笔钱存入银行，以后当他取出这笔钱的时候已经是一笔不小的财富了。我们可能会以为这是一个银行的广告，但是实际上题目暗示了这是在鼓励人们养成锻炼身体的好习惯。
通过这个独特的比喻，作画者意在让我们接受这样的一个概念，即锻炼身体的习惯就像往银行中一点点地存钱。如果我们坚持在一段时间里每天锻炼，这个习惯对于我们健康的贡献将是无价的。而且我坚信锻炼是一项一生都应该坚持的事情，是我们生活的一个重要组成部分。这不仅能够延长人们的寿命，而且健康的改进和保持会给人们带来一个更加幸福快乐的生活。
因此，在北京举办2008年奥运会的前夕，我认为这是一个非常好的时机发起全民健身的热潮。尽管坚持这个习惯在一开始比较困难，但是我们应该相信锻炼是一种一生的投资，我们可能得到比我们预期更多的收获。
