10、trees in front of the slogan have been cut down. In the picture there are several government officers, one of whom saying, “The slogan looks more prominent without trees in front of it.“The picture illustrates in a sarcastic way that some peoples behavior is contrary to their words. They like saying
11、 slogans or beautiful words in which they never have any faith. Thats why they often fail to act in accordance with what they say.
