破坏环境的英文翻译实用20篇

1.There are still many problems of environmental protection in recent years. One of the most serious problems is the serious pollution of air, water and soil. the polluted air does great harm to people’s health. The polluted water causes diseases and death. What is more, vegetation had been greatly reduced with the rapid growth of modern cities.

To protect the environment, governments of many countries have done a lot. Legislative steps have been introduced to control air pollution, to protect the forest and sea resources and to stop any environmental pollution. Therefore, governments are playing the most important role in the environmental protection today.

In my opinion, to protect environment, the government must take even more concrete measures. First, it should let people fully realize the importance of environmental protection through education. Second, much more efforts should be made to put the population planning policy into practice, because more people means more people means more pollution. Finally, those who destroy the environment intentionally should be severely punished. We should let them know that destroying environment means destroying mankind themselves.

2.We can’t live without water, but now the water was polluted. It is the biggest problem. It influences our daily life. So we should find a way to solve this problem. Water is important resources. In our daily life, we often leave the tap on after cleaning hands. Sometimes we often drop litter in the river. So the water was polluted by us. I think we could use a bottle of water two or three times. We have to turn off the tap after cleaning hands.

Let’s try to form a good habit and save things around us. Let’s do it from now on!

Fish can’t live without water. Plants can’t live without water. People can’t live without water, either. As you can see, the water is very important to us. But now drinking water is leand less. The water was polluted seriously.

So we would act quickly in order to save the water, But what must we do nowI think we can plant trees, clean the banks of the river, water the plants by using used water. Turn off the shower while we are washing hair. And we shouldn’t drop litter into the river and so on.

It’s our duty to try our best to protect and save water. And don’t forget that if we don’t save water, the last drop of water will be our tear

Water is very important to us. We can’t live without water. But the drinking water is leand less. Because we waste a lot of water in our daily life. And some of us often throw rubbish into the rivers. So the rivers are polluted seriously.

It’s our duty to save water, we must do something to save water. For example, we shouldn’t pour waste water into the rivers and we should pick up litter around us.

If we don’t save water, the last drop of water will be our tear

1.(凶险可怕) dangerous; perilous; ominous

详细解释

(1).险峻而贫瘠。《史记·张仪列传》：“ 韩 地险恶山居，五穀所生，非菽而麦，民之食大抵菽饭藿羹。一岁不收，民不饜糟糠。”

(2).危险可怕。 唐 韩愈 《泷吏》诗：“险恶不可状，船石相舂撞。” 明 刘基 《公无渡河》诗：“世路如何险恶实多，平地倏忽滔天风波。” 郁达夫 《感伤的行旅》：“﹝我们﹞谈到了社会上的险恶的人心。”

自从人类来到这个世界上，就一直面临着严重的环境问题。但是有的人面临着这么严重的环境污染，却还没有意识到危害的征兆已经降临。

在人类这个赖以生存的地球上，“白色环境污染”相当多。例如：人们上商尝菜市场等购物，都用白色的塑料袋装着。说是因为白色的塑料袋卫生。但是人们用了以后就扔在地上，哪里顾及这会带来多大的污染。

还有大气污染，许多有钱的大老板开着小汽车东奔西跑。在有些人看来，这是富有的表现。但是，在懂得这种污染危害之大的人看来，却是不文明的表现。这些人把整个城市搞的乌烟瘴气，却不以为然自己在破坏环境。

在农村里，有花草树木，空气当然好，环境污染也就会相应减少。但是人们不懂得去保护，反而去破坏。例如：人们滥砍滥伐，把一个充满空气和活力的山砍的伤痕累累，毫无生机。从而造成了严重的环境问题，还有河水里沼泽遍地。

人类面临着这么多的环境问题，怎么能无动于衷呢？为了人类不再受到环境污染的威胁，我们应该发出“保护环境，从我做起”、“关爱一草一木，就是关爱人类的生存”的号召。让我们共同为“保护环境”努力吧！

难道人们就不想有一个天常蓝、水常碧、鸟齐鸣的生态环境吗？如果在这样任意糟蹋下去，几时百年以后，我们的生存环境将会变成：空中弥漫着工厂排出的滚滚浓烟；河里到处流淌着工厂排除的污水……后果不堪设想啊！

人们啊！让我们共同创造一个良好的生存环境吧！

据说在一个很远很远的一个小岛上，那里的树木茂盛，一年四季鸟语花香，土地肥沃;有一天了，来了20多个难民，男女老少都有。于是，他们便在这座小岛上安居乐业，每一天，男人们用肥沃的土地种庄家，妇女们则用自做的织布机织衣服和裤子，而孩子们却用水草和树的“胡须”作了一个网来捕鱼或虾。

有一天，来了一个富商，当他经过这座小岛时，被小岛的一棵棵摇钱树给迷住了，他登上了小岛，把小岛的居民都叫了出来，给他们每人都发了一把斧头，富商说：“村民们，我给你们每人一个发财的好机会，现在，一棵树100元，只要你们把砍得树交给我们，我们便把钱给你们，现在开始吧，只要你们愿意。”

话音刚落，村民们一窝蜂的跑进森林，树们看见了锋利的斧子，竟拔腿就跑，可他们怎也逃不出村民的手心啊，一年年一代代，森林的树渐渐被砍光了，就在这时森林之神从睡梦中醒来，它发现自己的孩子都被杀害了，一气之下，召唤出了三个恶魔，“海啸”、“龙卷风”、“雷雨”。

人们见了丢下斧头慌忙逃在。“海啸”了吞噬一半的土地，“雷雨”让人们变得更慌张，正当人们上船时“龙卷风”卷走了一切。人们绝望了，第二次，海啸上岸时，带走了一切包括那锋利的斧头。

是呀，如果没有贪婪这一条可恶的虫，人们会去伤害树木吗?不!不会，人们会去保护他，爱护她!

Pollution has been a serious problem for a certain time around the world. There are many causes for it. Transportation is the main factor of pollution. When the waste gas from cars is released, the air is polluted. People breathing in the polluted air can develop respiratory disease. Another factor is that people throw their garbage everywhere. All kinds of garbage not only spoil the splendid environment, but also cause environmental pollution. Whats more, industrial pollution also deserves our attention. Wastewater from factories is poured into rivers and this causes water pollution. As a consequence, the greenhouse effect becomes a problem which needs our immediate caution and how to solve is urgent all over the world. At present, some measures have been taken to prevernt.

For example, people classify the garbage and some is recycled after being collected. People are also encouraged to use paper products instead of plastic products because we know that our living condition will be worse if we keep ignoring this problem. And I believe we can prevent pollution if everyone makes the efforts.

With the improvement of our living standard, more and more people can afford a car. As a result, our roads are more often than not crammed with cars. However, with more and more waste gas being discharged by the cars, the problem of air pollution becomes even more serious. So nowadays we advocate to lead a low-carbon life. My suggestion is we should ride bikes more often instead of driving cars.By riding a bike, we can not only exercise our body but also protect our environment. Why not have a try, my dear friends?

Now, our side of the car constant more up, the environment also increasingly worse! That the air around us there are many harmful substances. Therefore, we want to Sue around things start to do. For example, we can go to school by bike or walk, it can exercise. If you have time can use less elevator, many climb stairs. We can not only physical exercise, but also to protect our environment.

有两则关于同一条英语谚语Blood is thicker than water的译例。其一是“清水不浓血却浓”，其二是“血浓于水”。从字面上看，上述两则译例译得固然不错，似无可厚非。译文读起来很顺，又比较易懂，但读后似有不知所云之感。

这是因为译文的形象没能准确地传达出这条谚语的喻义来。

Longman Dictionary of English Idioms（p.28）上对这条谚语的解释是“The relationship between people of the same family is stronger than other，relationships”因此，这则谚语似可以借用汉语中一句俗语“亲不亲一家人”来译更能表达出“属于同一血缘关系的一家人比别人更亲近一些”的寓意。

语言是文化的表现形式。谚语同文学作品、诗歌一样是语言的精华。英语谚语是富于色彩的语言形式，一般具有生动形象、喻义明显、富于哲理的语言特征。在一定程度上，英语谚语反映了英语民族的文化特点。因此，翻译英语谚语时，仅仅以语言之间词汇的同义性（等价性）为前提，寻求对等的表现是不够的。译者须较多运用汉语的表现手段，力求能再现英语谚语的语言风格和丰富内涵。只有多注意英语谚语字面以外所特有的语言内涵色彩，才能使译文讽喻得当，宜于说理，又不失原来谚语所具有的语言形象。

某些英语谚语和汉语成语、俗语在表现形式和含义方面是一致的或基本一致的。汉译这些英语时，可惜用与其喻义相同或相近的成语或谚语及俗语直接对译。这样不但可以比较好地保持原文的神韵和形式，又使译文易于为读者或听者接受。如：

Pride comes before a fall．骄兵必败。

Amiss is as good as a mile.差之毫厘，失之千里。

Two is company，but three is none.两个和尚抬水吃，三个和尚无水吃。

Walls have ear.隔墙有耳。

Enough is as good as a feast．知足常乐。

有些英语谚语虽然在语言习惯和文化背景方面和其相对的汉语谚语之间存在着某些差异，而且所比喻的事物并不一样，但他们的喻义却相互吻合，而且表达方式也很相似，汉译这些英语谚语时，常常需要“易其形式，存其精神”，即采用形象近似的汉语成语意译。这样可使译文既喻义明显，又含而不露，且可再现原文所具有的语言效果，容易达意。如：

Two can play the game.孤掌难鸣。

Newbroom sweeps clean.新官上任三把火。

Speak of the devil，and he appears.说曹操，曹操到。

The grass is greener on the other side of the hill．这山望着那山高。

Putting the cart before the horse.本末倒置。

有些英语谚语意在言外，语言含蓄，寓意深刻。如果仅从字面意义直译成汉语，而不领会原文的具体含义及其效果，译文势必平淡无味。这样既不能表达意思，又有损于原文的语言形象和丰富内涵。因此，在翻译时，应在汉语中寻找那些与原文喻义相同或效果相似的成语、谚语或俗语来表达，则会使译文形象生动，准确达意。试比较下列各译例。

People who live in glass houses should not throw stones.如译成“住在玻璃房子里的人，不应扔石头”不如译成“己有过，勿正人”或“责人必先责己”。

In fair weather prepare for the foul．如译成“晴天要防阴天”，不如译成“有备无患”或“居安思危”或“未雨绸缪”。

Murder will out．如译成“谋杀终必败露”，不如译成“纸包不住火”。

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread．如译成“愚者敢闯天使不敢去的地方”，不如译成“初生牛犊不怕虎”。

One cannot make an omelette without breaking eggs.如译成“想吃煎蛋卷，就得打鸡蛋”，不如译成工“有得必有失”或甚至可以引申为“不破不立”。

如果所要翻译的谚语喻义清新，形象逼真，按其字面直译其意，就能表达出原文的喻义来，则可直译。这样做既能较完整地保存原文的表达方式，且又可丰富我们自己的语言文化，一举两得，请看下面的译例。

God helps those who help themselves.上帝帮助那些自己帮助自己的人。或“自助者天助之”。

Money is the root of all evil．金钱是万恶之源。

An empty sack cannot stand upright．空袋立不直。

Do as you would be done by. 以你所期望的别人待你的方式待人。

这与另一谚语： Don’t do unto others what you don’t want others do unto you.“己所不欲勿施于人”很相似。

Money talks.钱能通神。

有些英语谚语常常采用对称的修辞手段。使用这一修辞手段的目的在于加强语势，宜于说理，读后有心悦诚眼之感。汉译这些谚语时，应适当注意保持其修辞色彩，以便体现原文的表达方式。如：

You may take a horse to the water， but you can’t make it drink．

如果按字面译成，“你可以把马牵到河边去，但不能叫它饮水”至少是没有充分体现这句谚语本身所具有的强烈对比色彩。从语法分析的观点看，在这个句子里，情态动词may和can虽然都表示“可能”的，但在含义上有所不同。这里may表示“事实上的可能性”，而can则表示“逻辑上的可能性”。并列连词but使前后两个分句意义相反，对比色彩强烈。在这种情况下，译文也必须力求对偶整齐，前后呼应，形成对照。如将此句译作“牵马河边易，逼它饮水难”或“老牛不喝水，不能强按头”会更好些。

总之，即使像谚语这样孤立的语句，翻译时也需尽一番揣摩切磋之功，否则译文就可能与原文“貌合神离”，文不达意。译事艰辛也许正在于此。

假如人类不顾后果地滥用化学品，那么自然资源不能再生;假如人类一味砍伐树木，就会导致今天的荒漠;假如人类不保护生物，生态平衡受到破坏。假如人类随意毁坏自然资源，就会造成一系列生态灾难……那可是一件多么可悲的事情啊?!

假如人们不保护环境：工厂里的污水大量排进地球的江河湖泊里，地球妈妈“贫血”了;人类不知疲倦地砍伐树木，不仅会造成水土流失，首都北京等周边的地方还会造成严重的沙尘暴，导致荒漠;矿物被无限制地滥采，破坏了耕地和水源;大气层中的臭氧层也由于人类的原因，出现无法弥补的大洞;许多生物物种频临灭绝，华南虎、丹顶鹤和扬子鳄等稀有动物在世界上已寥寥无几;假如人类继续这样下去，就会给人类生存带来了严重的威胁。若是，人类就会把地球几十亿年来的积蓄全部用光，加快人类的灭亡。

假如人们在报刊、书籍、网络、电视上都宣传保护环境，让所有人都意识到危害环境所造成的一系列生态灾难。工厂里的污水和废气都不排进江河湖泊和天空，妥善处理，并建立污水、废气站，污水再利用：浇花、冲洗厕所、擦地……那么江河湖泊的水会又黑又臭吗?不乱砍乱滥伐，都多举行植树活动，每位老师、父母都教导学生及小朋友有保护环境的意识，到处绿树成阴;不滥用化学品，尽量少用，使毁坏的资源再生;限制滥采矿物，使耕地和水源不受到破坏;只要从小养成保护动物的习惯，生物物种就不会灭绝。只要这样做，生活就变得更美好。

假如人类都保护动物、多植树、妥善地处理好工厂的污水、废气……世界就会鸟语花香、气候怡人、多姿多彩。生态灾难是由人类自已直接或间接制造的，所以我在此呼吁大家：我们一致行动起来，保护我们人类赖于生存的家园——地球!

Second， much more efforts should be made to put the population planning policy into practice， because more people means more people means more pollution。

Finally， those who destroy the environment intentionally should be severely punished。

保护环境

目前环保还存在着许多问题。

最严重的问题就是空气、水和土壤的严重污染。

污染的空气对人类的健康十分有害。

污染的水引起疼病，造成死亡。

更有甚者，随着现代社会的迅速扩建，植被大大的减少。

为了保护环境，各国政府做了超多的工作。

采用了立法措施控制大气污染，保护森林资源和海洋资源，制止任何环境污染。

因此，在当今的环保中政府起着最重要的作用。

我的看法是，为了保护环境，政府应当采取更具体的措施。

首先，应当透过教育的方法使人们充分謒到环境保护的重要性。

第二，应更加努力把计划生育政策付诸实施，因为人口多就意味着污染严重。

最后，要严惩那些故意破坏环境者。

使他们破坏环境就是毁灭人类自我。

Nowadays environmental protection has become the first thing we have to do, because now the earths environment is under threat.

Now, we know that the earth has been warming, cold place has melted the ice, the water level becomes more and more high, let many coastal countries. More land desertification, disasters are hit, make our life is no longer so carefree.

First of all, we must start from the side.

Forests have been cut down, automobile exhaust emissions... The first will directly affect our lives, because they let we dare not breathe. So, the best way to deal with these problems is to drive less, ride bikes, and riding a bike is good for you! . But although it has been said that and said more than once, but why there are so many cars on the road? So, this method really, a bit not practical.

The simplest is to plant trees, the trees are humans good friends, they can help mankind to many things, such as clean air, and so on. So, a variety of trees, this method is very practical!

In short, our earth wanted us to take good care of yourself, to protect, want to use practical actions to help the earth, make the environment more beautiful!

先如今环保已经成为了我们必做的事，因为现在地球上的环境正受到威胁。

现在，我们知道地球已经开始变暖，寒冷地方的冰已经开始融化，变成的水使水平面越来越高，让许多沿海的国家被淹没。更多的土地沙漠化，天灾不断来袭，使我们的生活不再那么无忧无虑。

首先，我们必须从身边做起。

大片森林被不断砍伐，汽车尾气不断排放……这些首先就会直接影响到我们的生活，因为这些让我们“不敢呼吸”。所以，这些问题最好的解决方法就是少开车，多骑自行车，而且，骑自行车也很有益身体健康!。可虽然一直这样说，而且说了也不只一次，可为什么还是有那么多的车在路上呢?所以，这个方法实在，有点不实用。

最简单的就是种树了，树是人类的好朋友，他们能帮助人类许多事，比如净化空气啦，等等。所以，多种树，这个方法很实用!

总而言之，我们的地球要我们自己去爱护，去保护，要用实际行动来帮助地球，让环境更美好!

1.seem; be like

详细解释

◎ 好像 hǎoxiàng

(1) [seem] ∶有些像;仿佛 [像]

好像认识他

(2) [like]∶似乎

她好像是生病那样地动作

亦作“ 好象 ”。有些像;仿佛。《明成化说唱词话丛刊·花关索下西川传续集》：“此下儿郎人马到，好象 关平 大舍人。”《儒林外史》第五二回：“那知这一脚并不像踢到肉上，好像踢到一块生铁上，把五个脚指头几乎碰断。” 刘大白 《红色的新年》：“咚!咚!!咚!!!远远地鼓声动了!一更……二更……好像在那儿说：‘工!农!劳动!劳动!!’”

以前的小河清澈见底，但现在被污染了，变得脏兮兮的。

我家的饭店南边有条小河，原来那里的水清澈见底，能看见沉积在水里的沙粒和小鱼、小虾和螃蟹，多么美啊！

你们知道为什么现在它这么脏吗？就是因为有些人往河里乱扔垃圾和塑料瓶。

我们不要用一次性筷子，因为一次性筷子是用树木做成的。还有，在外面吃饭尽量要吃完不要剩，这样就不会用塑料袋打包，因为塑料袋见到热气会产生有毒物质，吃了塑料袋里的热饭，很有可能会中毒，而且把它扔到了地上，许多年代都不会腐烂。用过的电池不要乱扔，那样会导致水被污染。

我们还要节约纸张，因为纸也是树木做成的。我们不要砍伐树木，树木可以吸收二氧化碳，还能给我们换新鲜空气，为什么要砍掉它们呢？

我决定以后要爱护环境，不要污染环境。

人类的破坏并不是近代，在很久以前人类就一直在破坏生态环境。曾看过一篇报道，证实了澳大利亚塔斯马尼亚岛上巨型袋鼠和有袋犀牛，有袋豹在早期人类出现之前仍漫游在岛屿上。该发现证明了塔斯马尼亚岛上大型史前动物的灭绝是由于人类打猎导致的，而并非是由于天气恶劣所形成的灭绝。

曾经有人说“如果全中国的人给我一元，我就可以发财了。”的确，一粒纽扣电池可以污染60万升水，中国一共有14亿人口，如果每个人扔一粒电池到水中，就会污染到84万亿的水，而地球一共只有140亿亿升水，可见人们日常的生活习惯影响之大。

大自然的报复正向我们一步步逼近，大自然的报复是无法抵御的。所以我们应该从现在做起，从自己做起来保护环境。顺应时代发展，我们最先做到的就是低碳生活。我们要做到尽可能的步行外出，或者骑自行车，减少二氧化碳排放量。我们也要学会节电，将手机的亮度调低点，将空调温度调高一度。这些细小的动作对我们来说非常简单，然而日积月累，它们就有可能可以改变我们的命运。

Union is strength. 团结就是力量。

Until all is over ones ambition never dies. 不到黄河心不死。

Use a book as a bee does flowers. 读书如蜜蜂采花，吸取其中之精华。

Virtue is a jewel of great price. 美德是无价之宝。

Virtue is fairer far than beauty. 美德远比美丽更美好。

Virtue is her (or its) own reward. 为善最乐。

Virtue is the only true nobility. 唯有美德是真正高贵的。

Wash a dog comb a dog Still a dog remains a dog. 本性难移。

Waste not want not. 俭以防匮。

Weak men wait for opportunity but the strong men make it. 若者等待机会，强者创造机会。

You cant eat your cake and have it. 不能既要吃饼，又要把饼保存。

[常见名言警句的英文翻译

It is said that in the year of 300 AD, there was a kind old man and his name was Saint Nicholas. He was always ready to help the poor and often gave presents to them.

Today, Father Christmas is an imaginary figure, but nearly all young children believe in him. They think he is a happy old man with a long white beard and a long red robe.

On the night of the twenty-fourth of December every year, Father Christmas from some cold northern land comes down the chimney of the fireplace to put presents by the beds of children or to fill their stockings. So when children go to bed that night, they hang up their stockings, and on Christmas morning they wake to find them full of presents. Of course, it‘s really their parents who fill the stockings.

Another name for Father Christmas is Santa Claus.

译文：

据说，在公元300年，有一个善良的老人，他的名字是圣尼古拉斯。他总是愿意帮助穷人，常常送礼物给他们。

如今，圣诞老人是一个虚构的人物，但几乎所有的孩子都相信他。他们认为他是一个快乐长长的白胡子和一个长长的红色长袍的老人。

在第二十每年的十二月份的第四夜，父亲从寒冷的北方一些圣诞归结土地的壁炉烟囱提出的儿童床礼物或填补他们的袜子。因此，当孩子上床睡觉，那天晚上，他们就挂上他们的袜子，并在圣诞节早晨醒来发现他们装满礼物。当然，这需要他们的父母谁填补了袜子。

在一个美丽的大森林里，生活着许多动物。大树伸出它的双臂就像一把巨大的伞，小动物们在树下乘凉、快乐的玩耍，真像生活在一个绿色的世界。可不久，一些人们来到森林里，开始砍伐树木，一棵棵的大树被砍到了。就这样，过了两个月，原来茂盛的森林成了光秃秃的一片。随后就刮来了一阵沙尘暴，由于树木被砍光了，无遮无掩，慢慢的就形成了一片沙漠。森林里的动物们没法生活，只好离开这里，四处流浪。

去年，小鸭子和爸爸妈妈出去游玩，今年，它兴冲冲的回来，可是一切都变样了，再也找不到自己的家了，也找不到熟悉的伙伴。

突然，小鸭子看见一只小乌龟，就问道：“我们的好朋友都到哪里去了？”小乌龟说：“没有了树木，成天刮风，没有干净的水喝，没有食物吃，大家都四处逃生去了。小狗的呼吸快要停止了，到医院抢救了一夜才脱离危险，医生说就是因为环境不好才造成的。小狗一家搬到很远的地方居住了。更可怕的是，小龙虾和小鱼因为环境污染去世了！”小鸭子哭着说：“原来河水也被污染了，那我住哪呀！”

小鸭子自言自语地说：人类真的好可怕呀！我希望人类不要再破坏环境了，还给我们一个美好的家园！

随着科学的发展，人类随意毁坏自然资源，滥用化学品，造成一系列生态灾难，给人类生存带来了严重的威胁。

在一个村子里，有一个名叫张天顺的年轻人，他没有什么文化，不耕地，不尽心尽力地把果园管理好，但是手里总有一大把钱花。不知他致富的秘诀是什么。

同往常一样，张天顺穿着一件白色的衬衫，黑色的牛仔裤，戴着一顶鸭舌帽，手里挥着一把锋利的斧子兴高采烈地上山了。

走到山头，张天顺看见一棵棵枝繁叶茂、高大挺拔的树木，嘴角露出了一丝奸笑。他向四周环视了一周，看见一棵茂盛的百年大树，便笑嘻嘻地走了过去。

这棵树上有一只非常俊俏的啄木鸟，它的羽毛是天蓝色的，头上的头发飘飘然然，一双锐利的嘴巴长长的，它在树枝间窜来窜去，给树木治病，它兴致勃勃地干着，完全想不到一双邪恶的手已伸向了它。

张天顺那沉重的脚步声越来越清晰，他不断向那棵郁郁葱葱的大树走去。他停住脚步，振振有词地说：这棵树里一定有虫，我把它砍了，防止别的树木受到传染，破坏了森林。”说完便弓下身子，抡起斧子，向树木砍去。“吱”一声，大树上留下了一道不可磨灭的痕迹。树上的啄木鸟怒目圆睁，尖利的嘴巴不停地颤抖着。它从树上俯冲下来，停落在张天顺的脖子上，它瞪大眼睛，仿佛很生气地说：“你这段木头脑袋里才有虫。”说罢，便飞到树丛中，消失得无影无踪了。没过多久，十几棵大树落入了张天顺的“虎口”。他拨打了一通电话，过来二十多分钟，一辆大车满载着一棵棵大树远去了，二张天顺手里则换来了一大把钱。

张天顺这种人真可恶，为了一己私利破坏了大自然，就算拿再多的钱也抹不掉他在我们心中恶劣的形象，他这种人就应该受到法律的制裁。我们应该牢记“保护环境，人人有责。”
