食品安全问题(英文)

During the recent 30 years, China, a country in the east of the world, is recovering in an amazing speed. It pays a lot of attention on the development of economy, and as a result, it’s GDP has ranked the second. With the high developing pace in China, several problems appear at the same time, such as the large gap between the poor and the rich, the lack of passion and sympathy among the public, the corruption and degeneration of the officials, fraudulent facts all over the country and so on. But there is a most important thing that no one can overlook, and must emphasize it as much as possible. It is the problem of the safety of the food.

In China, there is an old saying that ‘Food is god for the people’. For the reason that in the past 5 thousand years, ordinary Chinese people were struggling for food all their lives. And till now, when the situation is getting better and most Chinese people don’t need to worry about having nothing to eat, two Chinese people meeting each other, the first thing they ask must be ‘Have you eaten your meal?’ So it is obvious that food is the most important thing in Chinese people’s daily life. But these years, the problem of the safety of the food

has become a big issue in the society. The abuse of some harmful chemical elements is reported like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. The melamine found in the Sanlu milk powder, the use of gutter oil in the food, the use of drug clenbuterol in pig meat, the use of chemical element Sudan in duck egg are only a few of the safety problems of food.

The reports of these cases have caught attentions of all the Chinese people, and of course, the worry and anger. Worrying about that, not only myself, but also all the Chinese people are looking forward to the reactions of the government to prevent these safety problems of food from appearing. And I hope that things will be better in the near future.
