The cartoon vividly reveals the phenomenon of air pollution or the decline of air quality. What exactly contribute to this phenomenon? Possible reasons can be listed as follows: firstly, vehicle exhaust gases could be one of the most leading causes. With the improvement of economy and peoples living standard, urban inhabitants in mounting numbers own their private cars. More automobiles will inevitably generate more exhaust gases. Additionally, household appliances widely used in cities also release a great mount of carbon dioxide gases, which further intensifies air pollution. Last but not least, many factories around the cities emit large quantities of untreated poisonous gases, which should also be responsible for the decline of air quality.

Definitely, air pollution will exert a detrimental impact on many aspects of peoples life. For example, many diseases such as cough, skin problem and lang cancer are caused by it. Perhaps it is high time that we should adopt some measures to solve the problem of air pollution.

此图生动地揭示了空气污染和空气质量下降的现象。到底是什么导致了这个现象?可能的理由罗列如下：首先，机动车的尾气排放是最主要的原因之一。随着经济的发展和人们生活水平的提高，越来越多的城市居民都拥有了自己的汽车，而更多地汽车势必带来大量的尾气排放。其次，城市里广泛使用的家用电器排放了大量的二氧化碳，这也进一步加剧了空气污染。最后，城市周边的很多的工厂，也每天向空气中排放大量的未经处理的有毒气体,这也导致了空气质量的下降。

The Mid-Autumn Festival has all interesting history。 Long ago in one of the dynasties of China there was a king who was very cruel to the people and did not manage the country well。 The people were so angry that some brave ones suggested killing the king。 So they wrote notes telling about the meeting place and time and put them into cakes。 On the 15th day of the 8th lunar month every person was told to buy the cakes。 When they ate them they discovered the notes。 So they gathered together to make a sudden attack on the king。 From then on the Chinese people celebrate on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month and eat "moon cakes" in memory of that important event。

When the Mid-Autumn Festival is near， shop windows are beautifully decorated。 Many "moon cakes" are displayed for people to buy。 People send presents such aswine， fruits and "moon cakes" to their friends and relatives。 In the evening of the day， they have a feast。 After the feast， they go out to the garden to look at the moon。 The children run and laugh on the streets。

It is believed that the moon is at her brightest on this night。 Many poems have been written about it， and poets are never tired of reading and writing such poems。 In Chinese literature， the moon of the Mid Autumn Festival has been pared to a looking-glass， a jade rabbit， and so on。 It seems that Chinese literature takes far more interest in the moon than in the sun。

The Mid-Autumn is a very important Chinese festival. It falls on the 15th day of August. A few days before the festival， everyone in the family will help to make the house clean and beautiful. Lanterns will be hung in front of the house.

On the evening there will be a big family dinner. People who work far away from their homes will try to come back for the union. After dinner， people will light the lanterns which are usually red and round. Children will play with their own toy lanterns happily.

At night the moon is usually round and bright. People can enjoy the moon while eating moon-cakes which are the special food for this festival. They can look back on the past and look forward to the future together.

中秋节在中国是一个特殊的节日，是中国的传统节日。中秋节是每年农历的八月十五号。我们中国人会庆祝那一天。我觉得没有多少人可以拒绝它的诱惑。我很喜欢这个节日。我有两个理由。

首先，中秋节的深层含义是团聚。在中国，人们把中秋节看得很重，所以无论他们在哪里，如果有机会的话他们都会回到他们家人身边。他们不喜欢在外面庆祝这一节日，这会让他们感到孤独。因此，他们会竭尽全力回家。幸运的是，政府也非常重视这一传统节日。所以法律规定在这特别的日子里会放假。换句话来说，中秋节为家人团聚提供了机会。

其次，每个家庭都会在这一天准备一顿大餐。所有的食物都很好吃。有大餐吃真的很棒。我觉得没人会对美味的食物不感兴趣。月饼是中秋节的一个必需的装饰。它也很美味。这是很久以前的传统。一边赏月一边吃着月饼是多么惬意啊!

这就是为什么我那么喜欢中秋节的原因。那是快乐有趣的时光。

The Autumn Festival

Chinese celebrate the harvest on the Mid-Autumn Festival since ancient times. Its the same as the custom of Thanksgiving Day in North America. The custom of the Mid-Autumn Festival was popular in everywhere in China in the early Tang dynasty. The Mid-Autumn is on August 15 according to lunar calendar, its the festival on which people will worship the moon.

On this night, the moon will be bright in the sky and people will get together to appreciate the moon in the family. The Mid-Autumn Festival was listed as one of Chinas cultural heritage in 2006 and was designed to be a public holiday in 2014. The moon cake is regarded as an indispensable food on Mid-Autumn Festival. People give them to their relatives and friends as gifts or enjoy them in the family party. The traditional moon cake is printed with cheracters "longevity", "blessing", "harmony" and so on. What a funny festival!

Development 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 people＇s 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.

环境与发展

不可否认的是环境恶化已成为当今世界上人们最担心的事了。因为水资源的浪费和土壤被侵蚀，土地资源逐渐缩小。我们呼吸着有毒的空气，河流和湖泊也被附近的工厂里排放出来的废弃物严重污染了。不夸大其词地说，环境质量的恶化很可能威胁人类的生存。

有些人说环境问题是我们为经济发展所付出的代价。对此，我不敢苟同。如果人类的生活被日益恶化的环境污染所影响的话，那么，经济发展的意义何在?

足够的证据表明：经济发展与环境保护的平衡可以实现可持续发展。关键是使人们意识到问题的严重性。政府和普通市民两方都应该携手使地球成为更适合人类居住的地方，这不仅是为我们自己，也是为我们的后代。

[环境与发展英语作文及译文

在人的一生中失败是常事。几乎每个人在一生中都失败过。当一个人打算做某事失败时，他常常感到沮丧。有些人会屈服于失败而畏缩不前。而另外一个人却坚持不懈并取得最后成功。

成功是人人都期待的，成功可以使人成名、荣耀。当一个人在做某事时成功了，他是那么高兴以致常常忽略了他曾经做过的那些没有成功的事情。

正如俗话所说，“失败是成功之母。”失败是走向成功的重要因素，这是毫无疑问的。成功的道路上充满各种困难和障碍。许多重要的发明和发现是经过数百次失败才成功的。只有经过许多次失败后取得的成功才是真正有价值和值得称赞的。

mooncakes are to mid-autumn festival what mince pies are to christmas. the seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed paste or red bean paste and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. and the moon is what this celebration is all about. mid-autumn festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month，it is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest.

there are two legends which claim to explain the tradition of eating mooncakes. one tang dynasty myth holds that the earth once had 10 suns circling it. one day all 10 suns appeared at once，scorching the planet with their heat. it was thanks to a skillful archer named hou yi that the earth was saved. he shot down all but one of the suns. as his reward，the heavenly queen mother gave hou yi the elixir of immortality，but she warned him that he must use it wisely. hou yi ignored her advice and，corrupted by fame and fortune，became a tyrannical leader. chang-er，his beautiful wife， could no longer stand by and watch him abuse his power so she stole his elixir and fled to the moon to escape his angry wrath. and thus began the legend of the beautiful woman in the moon，the moon fairy.

the second legend has it that during the yuan dynasty，an underground group led by zhu yuan zang was determined to rid the country of mongolian dominance. the moon cake was created to carry a secret message. when the cake was opened and the message read，an uprising was unleashed which successfully routed the mongolians. it happened at the time of the full moon，which，some say，explains why mooncakes are eaten at this time. mooncakes are usually stamped with chinese characters indicating the name of the **ry and the type of filling used. some **ries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give personalised ones to friends and family. they are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon. traditional mooncakes are made with melted lard，but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health. mooncakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories. the best way to wash down one of these sticky cakes is with a cup of chinese tea，especially jasmine or chrysanthemum tea，which aids the digestion.

中秋节吃月饼就像西方人圣诞节吃百果馅饼一样，是必不可少的。圆圆的月饼中通常包有香甜的莲子馅或是红豆馅，馅的中央还会加上一个金黄的咸鸭蛋黄来代表月亮。而月亮正是中秋节庆祝的主题。每年农历8月15日人们一起庆祝中秋，据说这一天的月亮是一年中最亮最圆的。

关于吃月饼这个传统的来历有两个传说。一个是唐朝的神话故事，说的是当时地球被10个太阳包围着。有一天10个太阳同时出现在天空中，巨大的热量几乎把地球烤焦了。多亏一位名叫后羿的神箭手射下了9个太阳，地球才被保祝为了奖励后羿，王母娘娘赐给后羿一种长生不老药，但是王母警告他必须正当使用。然而后羿没有理会王母娘娘的警告，他被名利冲昏了头脑，变成了一个暴君。后羿美丽的妻子嫦娥对他的暴行再也不能袖手旁观，于是她偷走了后羿的长生不老药，飞到月亮上逃避后羿的狂怒。从此就有了关于月宫仙子嫦娥，这个月亮上的美丽女人的传说。

第二个传说讲的是在元朝，朱元璋领导的起义军计划起义来摆脱蒙古族的统治。他们用月饼来传递密信。掰开月饼就可以找到里面的密信，起义军通过这种方式成功的发动了起义，赶走了元朝的统治者。这场起义发生在八月十五之时，于是中秋节吃月饼的习俗便在民间传开来。
