范文：
This cartoon displays a very soothing scene. An old lady bought some stuff from a convenience store, and just at the moment when she was about to leave, the store keeper ran out to her because she had paid an extra two yuan. Though that is not a big amount of money, I believe the old lady must be greatly impressed by the keeper’s honesty.
It is without doubt that the cartoon aims at addressing a serious problem prevailing in today’s society, that is, the lack honesty in the field of business. For instance, many businessmen are so obsessed with making profit that they simply forget that they are supposed to serve the people with best products and services. Therefore, there emerge fake products, cheating services and unfulfilled promises. In contrast, the kind-hearted keeper of this drawing practices honesty in every detail of her work. Her attitude gives customer the sense that her product and service are of first-class quality, which would guarantee her more customersand credit.
The store keeper’s practice is exactly what we should advocate among all businesses. That is because, honesty not only renders clients temporary satisfaction, but can also build long-term customer trust. The latter is one of the key factors for market expansion and business success.
譯文：
這幅漫畫(huà)展現(xiàn)了一個(gè)非常令人欣慰的情景。一個(gè)老婦人剛剛從一家便利店中買(mǎi)了一些東西，在她正要離開(kāi)的時(shí)候，店主跑出來(lái)還給她多付的兩塊錢(qián)。盡管這點(diǎn)錢(qián)數(shù)目不多，但是我相信這個(gè)老婦人一定對(duì)店主的誠(chéng)實(shí)留下了深刻的印象。
毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)這幅漫畫(huà)意在指出當(dāng)今社會(huì)一個(gè)普遍且嚴(yán)重的社會(huì)問(wèn)題，即商界缺乏誠(chéng)信原則。具體而言，許多商人一心想著謀取更多的利潤(rùn)，而忘記了他們應(yīng)該為顧客提供最好的產(chǎn)品和服務(wù)。因此就出現(xiàn)了諸如假冒產(chǎn)品、欺詐服務(wù)、無(wú)法兌現(xiàn)的諾言等。相反，這幅圖中好心的店主卻在工作的每一個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)中實(shí)踐誠(chéng)信的原則。她的態(tài)度讓顧客感覺(jué)到她的服務(wù)和產(chǎn)品是一流的，這就保證了她擁有越來(lái)越多的顧客、更好的名聲和信譽(yù)。
這個(gè)店主的行為正是我們應(yīng)該在商界中努力實(shí)踐的。這是因?yàn)?，誠(chéng)信不僅僅給了顧客暫時(shí)的滿意感，而更能夠建立長(zhǎng)期的顧客信任。而后者是市場(chǎng)擴(kuò)張和事業(yè)成功的關(guān)鍵因素之一。
