环境污染（environment pollution）是指人类直接或间接地向环境排放超过其自净能力的物质或能量，从而使环境的质量降低，对人类的生存与发展、生态系统和财产造成不利影响的现象。具体包括：水污染、大气污染、噪声污染、放射性污染等。

人类生产活动对自然环境的污染主要包括两个方面：一是工业生产过程中产生的废水废气废渣和农业上使用的农药、化肥等对水、大气、土壤、食品的污染；二是在自然资源开发和利用中，产生的对环境的污染。

相信大家对于环保都有一定的认识，也曾读过关于限塑令，节约用水保护环境等为主题的作文。我们来看一下这篇范文，试着找出其中的优点与不足。

1972年6月5日-16日，“联合国人类环境会议”在瑞典的斯德哥尔摩召开，这是人类历史上第一次在全世界范围内召开的保护人类环境的会议，具有里程碑式的意义，是人类环境保护行动史上划时代的事件。会上，各国与会代表建议联合国大会将“联合国人类环境会议”开幕日——“6月5日”定为“世界环境日”。同年10月，第27届联合国大会接受并通过了这项建议。

On June 5, 1972 -16, the United Nations Conference on the human environment "in Sweden was held in Stockholm, this is the first time in human history was held in the world within the scope of the conference on the protection of the human environment, has the meaning of landmark, is the history of mankind environmental protection action on the epoch-making event. At the meeting, delegates suggested that the United Nations General Assembly will be "the United Nations Conference on the human environment" opening day "June 5th" as the "world environment day". In October of the same year, the twenty-seventh session of the UN General Assembly accepted and adopted the proposal.

“世界环境日”的意义在于提醒全世界的人们注意全球环境状况的变化，以及人类活动对环境已经造成的危害，要求联合国系统和世界各国政府在每年的这一天开展各种宣传、纪念活动，以强调保护和改善人类环境的重要性和迫切性。联合国环境规划署也将在每年的世界环境日选择一个成员国举行“世界环境日”纪念活动，发表《环境现状的年度报告书》，确定该年世界环境日的主题。在“世界环境日”的那天，各国政府和全世界的人们都要举行各种形式的纪念活动，宣传环境保护的重要性。呼吁全体地球公民为维护、改善人类环境而不懈地努力。

"World Environment Day" is to remind people to the attention of the whole world changes the state of the global environment and human activities on the environment, the harm has been caused, the United Nations system and governments around the world every year on this day to carry out a variety of promotional and commemorative activities, in order to emphasize the importance of protecting and improving the human environment and the urgent. The United Nations Environment Programme will also choose a member of the "World Environment Day" celebration in the annual World Environment Day, issued a "state of the environment in the annual report of the year", the theme of world environment day. That day in the "World Environment Day", governments and people all over the world have held various forms of commemoration, publicize the importance of environmental protection.

Depending on personal experience, personality type and emotional concern, we find that some people hold the idea of living in the country, while others prefer living in the city. In my opinion, I prefer the city life, though it has advantages and disadvantages.

First of all, city life is very colorful. City is the center of the surrounding area. So, it is also the most booming place having the best things. There are many great things and wonderful activities in the city, while there isn’t in the country. For example, there are KFC, wonderful shopping mall, delicious food from various places, dancing club, different kinds of activities and so on. We can also learn the culture from all the countries. Despite city life is so wonderful, it still has many disadvantages. Nowadays, with the improvement of people’s living standard, people have more cars and more people come to city, and then the city becomes more and more crowd. As a result, traffic jam emerges, which makes great inconvenience for people to go out. What’s worse, the air pollution becomes serious day by day, which is bad for people’s health.

To sum up, every coin has two sides. Living in the city also has good side and bad aspect. Whether like living in city or not depends on individual thinking. As myself, I like living in city though I know the disadvantage of living in city.

以前的西塘，景色优美，风光宜人，塘水清澈见底，小鱼儿在水中漫步，野鸭们和各种不知名的小精灵在水上戏耍，塘边垂柳婀娜多姿，花儿争奇斗艳……可后来西塘却变了。

西塘变成了“垃圾场”。塘面上漂着许多垃圾袋，有时还漂着臭南瓜。水面下全都是黑黑的泥和人们丢的果皮。怎样才能让西塘不受污染呢?

从现在开始，我们要清理塘底的污泥，不让塘水流进西塘里，我们要塘边放一些垃圾桶，还要立一些告示牌，告诉塘边商店的老板和过往的行人不要乱丢垃圾了。

让我们行动起来，加入保护西塘的环境的行列中去吧!我相信不久的将来，西塘一定能像以前那样美的。

The environmental pollution is worse and worse /more and more seriously today. Water is polluted; we have no clean water to drink. Many trees are cutting down, some animals is getting less and less.

I appeal through the Internet, the farmers dont in the wheat straw burning, after the autumn harvest of freshwater and sell special corporations to finish molding fuel, can not only generate economic benefits, can save the environmental protection, protect the earth.

全球气候变暖，南极的冰川消融的速度在加快，海平面将急速抬升，地球上的生物将有灭顶之灾。我告诉爷爷，这都是碳过多排放惹的祸。春节时候，我们没有像往年买上许多烟花燃放，只在除夕燃放过一次鞭炮，能起到欢腾喜气的气氛就可以了，否则产生的二氧化碳实在是太多，家家户户累积起来，排放量实在惊人。我通过互联网发出呼吁，农民秋收后不要在把麦秸集中焚烧了，可以变废为宝，卖给专门公司制作成成型的燃料，既能产生经济效益，有能节约环保，保护地球。

我们的祖国虽然资源、物产比较丰富。可是，你知道吗?光光这些都还不够，更重要的是要注重环保!

Although our motherland is rich in resources, products. But, you know? Only these are not enough, it is more important to pay attention to environmental protection!

我觉得，政府应该多多提倡环保，多多参与环保工作，为环保做贡献，组织好环保是最关键的。你们说，是吗?

I think, the government should take to promote environmental protection, actively participate in the environmental protection work, make a contribution to protecting the environment, organization of environmental protection is the key. You say, yes?

首先，应该告诉市民，要关注每一件环保的事，积极做环保工作，不要随手扔垃圾、看到垃圾要及时捡起。其次，要把废旧电池该扔哪的问题解决好，应该把这件事给做得更完善：在一些地方分放一些回收废旧电池的筒，每天都有专门负责的人去取。这样一来，不管是住在偏远地区，还是住在热闹的地方，都可以很方便的把废旧电池处理了，再也不会发生人们不知道废旧电池怎么处理，就把废旧电池扔进垃圾箱里的事了。最后，政府应该增加一个环保工作者的职务，让更多的人投身于环保工作当中!

First of all, should tell the people, pay attention to every green thing, to do environmental protection work, do not readily throw garbage, garbage to pick up see. Secondly, to throw the waste batteries which to solve the problem, should put this thing to do better in some places put some recycling waste batteries, cylindrical, every day there are responsible for people to get. In this way, whether it is to live in the remote areas, or in the bustling place, can be very convenient to the handling of used batteries, and it wont happen again and people dont know how to deal with the waste batteries, waste batteries thrown in the garbage again. Finally, the government should increase a environmental protection worker job, let more people involved in environmental protection work!

为了环保，行动起来吧!

To be environmentally friendly, action!

Last weekend, I wanted to swim in the river that I usually wen in the childhood. When I went there, I was shock. The river is no longer like before. It was full of rubbish. It seemed that the rubbish is from the villagers themselves. In order to put the rubbish nearer, they put all of them into the river. Not only the water is not clean any more, the river also smelt bad. I real touched. Why human and the environment couldn’t live harmonious? Long time ago, they could get along with each other. Why not now? People have to stop their behavior to harm the environment. Otherwise, it would cause destruction to both sides.

上周末，我想去我小时候经常去的那条河里游泳。当我去那里的时候，我很震惊。河水再也不像以前那样了。河里面到处都是垃圾。似乎这些垃圾都是村民丢的。为了不走那么远丢垃圾，他们把垃圾都丢到河里了。水不仅仅不干净还会散发出臭味。我真的触动了。为什么人类和环境不能和谐地相处呢？很久以前，他们可以好好相处。为什么现在不可以了呢？人们必须停止他们伤害环境的行为。否则，最后会是两败俱伤。

Many years ago, before I moved to the city, I lived in a small town. I was so close to the nature, I could see the mountain and the clear water. I remember the town became especially beautiful after the heavy rain, the air was so fresh and I felt a little cozy, it was like a gift from god in the hot summer. The mountain looked so clear over the heavy rain, it just washed by the rain. The things around me were so green. I love living in the town, I especially like the town when it was washed by the rain. At that moment, nature and me were united, we just like a group.

As time goes by,the importance of constructing a green campus is gradually executed in current society,not only for that the campus is the place which aimed at developing talents,but also for the campus is a symbol to a city.

The green campus not only refer to green environment,but also refer to a new idea about the ways of educating and managing the students,mainly letting them accept the knowledge and build up the

spirit of loving nature and being responsible for the environment,also,letting them take an active part in the actions of protecting the environment and keep the idea of sustainable development in mind.

In order to construct the green campus,we should do from two aspects.First of all,we should make every effort to study hard,aimed at becoming the knowledgeable ones with high qualities as well.Secondly,we should make ourselves more comprehensive,doing from the team-work spirit,the environmental consciousness and so on.Besides,we should be concerned about society,our motherland and the whole world,as well as learning to innovate and actively practice.

1.1词汇方面

如果把写英语作文比作建楼房的话，英语词汇在英语写作中起着砖、瓦的作用，是句子的最基本的组成部分，所以词汇是我们高中英语教学中的重点，单词听写是课堂教学必不可少的一个环节，但学生的词汇量毕竟有限，遇到问题时，便会用汉语词汇去补充英语词汇的空缺。

例如：交通十分繁忙。误：The traffic is busy. 正：The traffic is heavy.

她和一位教授结婚了。误：She married with a professor.

正：She married a professor.

英语词语的词义往往比较复杂，并和汉语有着一定区别。这种不同就会会导致学生仅把写作当作一词一句的翻译来做，结果是事倍功半。

1.2语法方面

英语中难点就是时态，语态的掌握。英语中常用时态共十六种，语态分为主动语态与被动语态，语气有陈述语气与虚拟语气之分。不同的时态有它特有的句法结构。如现在进行时态使用be＋v－ing形式来表示。现在完成时则用have／has ＋p．p来表示。一般将来时则用shall／will／be going to＋v来表示。英语中时间意义的表达是通过动词的时和体来加以反映，而汉语中不存在时、体等，汉语则依靠表示时间的副词（如“曾经”、“正在”、“已经”、“将要”）作状语，或利用虚词“了”、“着”、“过”等作补语这一语法手段来体现，动词本身无任何变化。在英语中，“already”和“ever”常常用在完成时态之中，不能与表示过去的时间状语连用。学生常常把上述句子错译成“Yesterday I have been to the park．”“Five years ago，they have known each other．”又如在英语中，我们常常用否定前置来

With the development of our society， energy in the world bees more and more limited， so it is quite important for us to save energy and to protect our environment。 As a student， there are a lot of methods we can do to save energy at home。 For example， first， we can turn off the light as well as other appliances when we are not using them。 Second， recycle the waste water， paper and other waste so that we can reuse them。 Whats more， it is suggested to use public transportation more instead of private cars。

Above all， everyone can make a great contribution to our environment。 I hope I can learn more to develop new and clear energy， like energy from the wind and solar。

【猜题理由】随着经济的高速发展，社会自然环境遭受严重污染。环保意识的培养和环保工作的开展成为国人，乃至世人共同关注的热点和焦点。对环保问题而言，"只要人人献出一点爱，世界将变成美好人间 !"此话题为学生熟知，与高中生的生活实际贴近，而且具有一定的开放性，使得每个学生都能够有话可说，符合新课标理念下的命题方向。

【构思点拨】首先简要介绍环保问题之重要，号召同学们行动起来，共同参与环保活动;其次就环保发出倡议，并征召志愿者。这样既把考生限定在一定范围之内，又给予了考生相当的发挥的自由，有助于考生的作文脱颖而出。

Dear brothers and sisters,

On behalf of the University Students Union, I, the Chairman of the Union , am earnestly calling for your active participation in our environmental protection campaign. It is the duty of every global villager; man just can not sustain his glorious civilization without a rewarding environment, which will be possible only if man makes considerable efforts to protect the environment.

Do you cherish precio us opportunities to volunteer in our joint efforts in environmental protection? Here is a great one not to be missed by any enthusiastic youth; Right next Saturday, our university is to run a publicity campaign to advocate environmental protection across the city. The University Students Union will be in charge of recruitment of volunteers. Lets join our hands and take action immediately.

Yours sincerely,

With rapid development of society,the environment is becoming a more and more severe problem.Low carbon,is a new conception of the whole world.We should turned off the light when we dont use it.We can take bus instead of driving car to office.We shouldnt use plastic bag in supermaket as possible as we can.If we do that,we can have a promising future.

随着社会的快速发展，环境问题已经变得越来越严重了。低碳，是一个世界范围内的新兴概念。我们应该及时关掉不用的灯，我们应该更多的乘坐公共交通工具而不是私家车，我们在超市购物的时候不应该使用塑料袋，我们只有这样做了，我们的未来才会有希望。

How to protect the environment.

Good environment can make people feel happy and fit . To improve the environment means to improve our life.

We should plant more trees and flowers around us . We shouldn’t cut them down . We should stop factories from pouring waste water into the river and waste gas into the air.

Whenever we see litter on the ground , we should pick it up and throw it into dusbins. Never spit in public. Don’t draw on public walls. It’s our duty to protect the environment.

[提倡保护环境的英语作文

With the development ofscience and technology ,different kinds of pollution has been produced andcaused global concern recently.

As we know, people have beenliving on the earth for thousands of years, human activity damaged natural environment, such as excessive abuse of natural resources ,the sewage dischargedfrom factories ,the animal slaughter ,kinds of chemical fertilizers andgreen-house effect. All that is mentioned above has a bad impact on the eco-system .Now, many animals aredying out. We are suffering from unhealthy food and water, we are faced withharmful rays and global warming. It was ourselves who had made a series oftroubles. As you can see, we are the final victim.

Above all, if we human beings cannot recognize theseserious problems and try our best to solve them soon, we would finally lose theenvironment suitable for us to live. So, it is our duty to protect theenvironment ,but what should we do to protect it?

In my opinion, the first and important thing is tounite all forces ,that is to say---gather all hearts together. Next we shouldprotect and plant more trees, which can dispose of the dust in the air. As forfamilies, it is effective to ride bicycles rather than drive cars. Don’t litteranywhere as you like. In addition, sorting and recycling the rubbish also playan essential role in the protection of our earth. We’d better call on everyone aroundus to lead a low-carbon life, as it may make a difference to the environment.

Thus, it’s high time that we did something to improveour surroundings. Everybody should raise the awareness to protect our motherearth. Let’s appeal to more people to join us.

All in all ,there’s no doubt that keeping the balanceof human and nature ,we will benefit a lot.

velopment and the Environment

It is undeniable that the worsening environment has become the biggest concern of the present-day world. Land resources are dwindling because of water loss and soil erosion. Waste gases poison the air we breathe. The rivers and lakes are polluted by waste dumped in them from factories. It is probably no exaggeration to say that deterioration of the quality of the environment threatens the existence of mankind itself.

Some people are of the opinion that the environmental problem is the price we have to pay for economic development. But I do not think that this argument is valid. After all, what is the point of economic growth if peoples lives are adversely alfected by worsening environmental pollution?

There is plenty of evidence to show that sustainable development can be achieved by balancing economic growth with protection of the environment. The key to achieving this is to make people aware of the seriousness of the problem. Both governments and ordinary citizens should join hands to make this world a better place to live in, not only for ourselves, but also for future generations.
