Chinese people are no longer strangers to food-safety crisis—the contaminated vinegar, the meat that glowed in the dark, the exploding watermelons, the mushrooms imbued with bleach, the pork so dosed with chemicals to make it lean and the infamous melamine-tainted milk. What do you think are the major causes leading to the food-safety crisis in China? Write an essay of about 400 words. You should supply an appropriate title for your essay.

答案
No More Food-safety Scandals It is not an easy task to feed 1.3 billion people. Despite this difficulty, there is no reason to subject people to hazardous or poisonous food and ask them to endure the repeated melodramas of food scandals in China. As I see it, the food-safety issue is caused by the profit-first attitude of food makers and the laissez-faire approach to regulating the food industries in some local authorities. To begin with, due to the significant amount of demands of food products, some food makers are seeking profits at the expense of people’s health. For instance, according to an official in Shanxi Province, 95 percent of its highly regarded "aged vinegar" is actually dosed with industrial acid to cut fermentation time. The profit-driven and quicker-returns attitude of manufacturers has led to many cheated acts of adding industrial additives, banned chemicals and disease-induced substances, which all pose great threats to consumers’ health and well-being. The integrity of food producers is tempered by the unlimited desire for profits and gains. Customer-first is a much neglected cliche that would not turn into profits. The conscience is clouded by the money, allegedly "the root of all evils". What is more, some local authorities usually adopt a "let-it-be" approach to regulating the food industries. A few years ago, in response to the melamine-tainted milk scandal, China passed its first-ever food-safety law. However, out of the petty mindset of protectionism, some local food associations or agencies choose to turn a blind eye to the rampant wrongdoers. To guarantee complete food safety, regulation authorities in the localities concerned should adopt a more stringent and transparent mechanism to expose and punish the illegal and dangerous makers. They should inspect batches of food samples on daily basis and expose the failed products to warn the public of potential danger. As we all know, food safety hinges upon the concerted efforts made "from farm to table". Any missed link in the food industry chain will spell disaster to consumers. As watchdogs empowered by law and people, local inspection and quarantine departments should be more responsive and proactive to crack down any potential or existing malpractice in the industry. To conclude, the food-safety crisis in China is mainly caused by the profit-driven attitude of food producers and the relaxed inspection and exposure mechanism of local departments. Chinese people will only be reassured of the food safety, if the manufacturers put the public health before their marginal gains and if relevant departments undertake a periodic inspection and exposure system.
