Body 1

Opponents may voice their concern toward the baneful influences importing may exert ,among which environmental destruction stands out for air transport accelerates the depletion of fossil fuel and the toxic fumes , such as sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide, released from the aircraft are the chief culprit of atmospheric contamination. Never should we pursue short-term profit at the expense of the sustainable development. Being self-sufficient in food production, in contrast, brings tangible boons for local agriculture. Maximizing producing food nationwide while minimizing imports make more domestic producers engage in agricultural production, creating oceans of job opportunities and achieving full-employment.

sulfur dioxide n.二氧化硫；

culprit n.问题的起因；

tangible adj.明确的；真实的；可感知的；

Body 2

My persuasive argument in favor of importing food, however, lies primarily in the wider selection of agricultural products people can access. Not all countries are endowed with the same geographic features, be it weather conditions, or cutting-edge technologies to breed all the foods that citizens desire to relish. In other words, tropical fruits cannot be grown in frigid areas, which means importing would be the optimal option for indigenous citizens to effortlessly enjoy exotic food items. For example, without food import, by no means would Japanese or Russians be possible to taste delectable tropical fruits such as durian or mangosteen. It is the food importing that allows local denizens accessible to a more abundant supply of food and vegetable, thereby enriching their dietary structure.

解析

进口可以丰富居民的食物种类；每个地方的地理位置，气候条件，科技都有差异，很多国家不具备合格的粮食种植条件，只有进口才能更好地满足人们饮食方面的需求；

are endowed with v.天生...具有

cutting-edge adj.领先的；前沿的；

relish v.享受；品味；

exotic adj.奇异的；异国风情的；

delectable adj.美味的；

Conclusion

To conclude, I concede that food importing does come with some undesirable side-effects. Nevertheless, it is rather one-sided to deny the rationality of such a practice  for people can constantly benefit from the import of agricultural products.
