我们每个人都有一个、两个、三个，甚至四五个理想。记得托尔斯泰曾经说过：理想是指路明灯。没有理想就没有坚定的方向;没有方向就没有生活。

为什么我要当动物保护者呢?第一：我对动物特别有同情心，比如一些流浪狗、流浪猫之类的流浪动物，我会趁爸爸妈妈离开的时候给它们一些食物吃，一开始它们会半信半疑，(因为它们常常被一些卖狗肉，参猫肉的，引诱，然后就……)于是我就走的远远的，在一个隐蔽的地方看着它们吃完了，我才离开。第二：我对动物特别了解，我几乎每天都看快乐宠物，里面会有些关于宠物资料。比如我家的小泰迪——阿酷，我可以看阿酷的身体动作来判断它想要干什么。

如果再过上20年，30年，我真的当上动物保护者，我一定会禁止人们掠杀猫、狗之类的流浪动物，探索出尼斯湖水怪的真正面目，研究出治愈狂犬病的药物，还有最重要的事情就是要保护好动物，禁止虐杀动物，随便给动物喂食……要保护好环境，只有这样动物才能生存下来，如果没有动物我们也无法生存的，比如说牛，帮助人类耕田。

虽然我还没有当上动物保护者，但我也算半个动物保护者了，但是我还是要呼吁大家保护动物，从自己做起。

Nowadays, with the improvement of the people’s living standard, some people form a habit of raising small or domestic animals as pets. Some raise small dogs or cats as their pets while others raise various birds or fishes as their pets. There are still even some people raising snakes and other unusual animals as their pets.

Does anyone have the same opinion of raising animals as pets? No, some people object to the idea of raising animals as pets. To them, animals have their own right to live a natural life like human beings. On the other hand, the way people raise animals as pets have a negative influence on the surroundings such as dogs’ barking at midnight, dogs’ chasing people on the street and so on. What’s more, some animals will transmit some diseases.

In my opinion, I do not like the idea to raise animals at pets. Animals have their own right to lead a life as they like. We should not deprive them of their natural right. In this way, we will live in a peaceful world in harmony with the other living creatures.

如今，随着人们生活水平的提高，有些人养成了饲养小动物或家畜作为宠物的习惯。一些养小狗或猫作为他们的宠物，而其他人饲养各种鸟类或鱼类作为他们的宠物。甚至还有一些人饲养蛇和其他不寻常的动物作为他们的宠物。

任何人都有相同的意见，饲养动物作为宠物吗?不，有些人反对将动物作为宠物饲养。对他们，动物有他们自己的权利，生活像人类一样自然。另一方面，人们饲养动物作为宠物的方式对环境有负面影响，如狗的叫声在半夜，狗追逐人在街上等。更甚的是，有些动物会传播某些疾病。

在我看来，我不喜欢养宠物。动物有他们自己的权利，过他们喜欢的生活。我们不应该剥夺他们的自然权利。这样，我们将生活在一个和平的世界中，与其他生物和谐相处。

[有关动物的英语作文

there is only so much land on the earth, and so what we can do with it is limited. some people believe that human needs for farmland, housing and industry should come first, while others believe that some land should be set aside for endangered animals. i am of the opinion that we should reserve some land for the worlds animals for the following reasons.

first, mankinds need for land is constantly growing. if the demand is not checked in some way, humans will eventually develop all of the earths available land. at that time, mankind will have no more room to grow, and all the wild animals will have disappeared, as well as other valuable resources. second, humans are able to innovate and can use the land that they already possess in more efficient ways. animals are unable to do this. once their land is taken away from them they will die. third and last, endangered animals are an important part of the biodiversity of our planet. if they disappear, we cannot predict what the effect will be. therefore, we should treat such animals as a valuable resource to be protected.

to sum up, the worlds endangered animals are an important resource and we should protect them by setting aside some land for them. although mankinds need for land continues to grow, people are intelligent and inventive enough to put the land they have to better use. in this way, we can have enough land for farming, housing and industry, and preserve the biodiversity of the planet at the same time.

在一个遥远的山区，有一片美丽的大森林，森林里生活着各种各样的动物，它们和平共处，快乐地生活着。

这一天，正是小白兔6岁的生日，它邀请了森林里的一些动物，有可爱的小熊、老实的山羊、聪明的小白兔、改邪归正的狐狸……它们正在开生日会呢。在狐狸的建议下，它们围着小白兔，唱起了生日歌，唱完了，小白兔准备把小熊送来的生日蛋糕分给大家吃。啪啪啪，啪啪啪，突然几声枪响，一场悲剧发生了，小松鼠、小狐狸、小山羊还有小熊都相继倒下了，只有小白兔被围在中间，它反应特快，赶紧躲进了草丛里。小白兔惊魂未定时，便听到了两个猎人的对话：“老兄，今天收获不少嘛，你看，又捉到四只动物了，可惜，让那只小兔子给溜走了。”另一个说：“我们呀，今天总共抓到了10只松鼠、5只狐狸、1只小熊、6只山羊、8只山鸡，和5只野兔，把这些拿去出卖，肯定值不少钱。”小白兔听了，气愤地自言自语说：“人类真不讲理，你们这样赶尽杀绝，还让我们怎么生存下去呢?不行，我得通知其他动物赶紧搬家。”小白兔一路躲躲闪闪，终于来到了狼家门口，只见大门开着，却不见狼先生，地面上还有一些血迹，它知道狼也遭不幸了。

这时候，小白兔一片茫然，它伤心地哭着说：“人类啊!现在有些动物已经频临绝种，你们这样破坏生态平衡，其实是在缩短自己的生命。”就在这时，一位小天使来到小白兔身边，她安慰小白兔说：“小白兔，请不要伤心，现在国家已经在加大力度，禁止人们滥捕滥杀野生动物，并在许多森林地区建立了自然保护区，相信在不久的将来，人类会还你们一个美好的家园。”听了小天使的话，小白兔自我安慰地说：“哎，我只好暂时躲起来，期待这一天的到来吧。”

是啊!保护野生动物，建立更多的自然保护区，维护生态平衡，刻不容缓!

信赖，往往创造出美好的境界。

我曾经在报纸上看到过这样一幕：猎人把枪对准了一只正在给孩子喂奶的母猴，母猴看到后惊慌失措，立马把小猴放下来，自己从树上跳下来，然后对着猎人拍了拍自己的胸脯。意思是让猎人有什么事冲着自己来。请问，如果你是猎人，看到这一幕，你还会舍得开枪吗?

人类真的太聪明了，聪明到有点可怕。人类不仅会利用自己的感情，还会利用动物的感情，利用动物对自己的信赖。

一群猎杀队在非洲大草原上看中了一头品相很好、象牙很大的大象。

但是这头大象对猎队的人一直警惕，一直躲躲藏藏。猎杀队的人为了跟大象拉好关系然后把它杀死，他们就驻扎在草原里，每天都在草原里吃在草原里睡。

就这样过了一个星期，大象逐渐对他们放松了警惕。在猎杀队没水喝的时候大象带着猎杀队找到了河水，救了他们一命，善良可爱的大象还到带着猎杀队的人认识了自己的七个小伙伴……

又过了半个月，大象对猎杀队产生了信赖。直到有一天，猎杀队的人借用要去喝水的理由把大象引到了一个他们早已设好的陷阱里……

猎杀队的人没有良心。他们觉得拔象牙时，象牙长得太深难拔，于是他们就把大象脸上的肉刮干净然后继续拔牙。他们觉得只拔大象的牙有点浪费，于是他们就把大象的鼻子和四肢都砍了下来。他们又想起了大象的另外七只伙伴，于是他们也用相同的方式把其他七只给杀了……

是的，最后满载而归，如果不被抓，他们肯定能赚一大笔钱。但是，我想问，他们的良心真的不会痛吗?我真的很难想象那头大象被杀时的心情。

没有买卖就没有伤害。我们不能控制动物的行为，但是我们可以不买它!抵制野生动物产品!我希望人类和动物能和平共处!

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 ?

不可否认环境恶化已成为当今世界最大的问题。土地资源在不断减少,因为水土流失。废气污染着我们呼吸的空气。河流和湖泊被工厂的 倒出来的废弃物所污染。这可以毫不夸张地说,环境质量的恶化威胁着人类的生存。

有些人认为环境问题是我们因为经济发展而必须要付出的代价。但我不认为这种观点是有效的。毕竟,经济增长的重点是什么?如果人们的生活环境被日益恶化、被严重污染了，那还有什么意义?

动物是人类的朋友，我们应该保护它，并不是要伤害它，我们拥有了这个世界，为什么不能让动物们和我们人类一起共同生存在这个世界上？

世界上已有很多的动物已经灭绝于我们人类之手，旅鸽就是其中之一：终年无忧无虑的生活在北美大陆上，每到迁徙的季节，它们成千上万遮天蔽日。当欧洲人刚踏上北美大陆时，这里有50多亿只旅鸽。可是欧洲人来到这里之后，由于旅鸽肉味鲜美，开始遭到他们大规模的围猎。从此，旅鸽也就一步步走向了灭绝。当时鸽肉在市场上轻易买到，密执安州一个季节里就捕获了750万只旅鸽。曾经，一个俱乐部一周就杀了5万只旅鸽，有人一天便杀了500只。他们把这些罪恶一一记录下来——那是他们比赛的成绩。甚至有人想出这样的方法——把一只旅鸽的眼睛缝上，绑在树枝上，张开罗网。它的同伴们闻讯赶来，于是一一落网。有时候，一次就能捉到上千只。这个方法一定传播得很广 。就这样，在不到100年的时间里，旅鸽从几十亿猛减到濒临灭绝。

旅鸽： 1900年野生灭绝；1914年在美国华盛顿国家博物馆的展厅里，有一只旅鸽站在一根树枝上，长长的嘴，尖尖的尾巴，展翅欲飞。但它永远告别了蓝天自云。它再也不能动，不能叫，不能吃东西了。这是世界上最后一只旅鸽，而且是一只标本。那双木然的眼睛，怅望着这个世纪的人们，是怎样的捕杀它的同类，是怎么剥它的皮抽它的筋剜它的肉的。

如果我们人类再不制止，生态就会不平衡，世界的资源就循环，我们人类也会灭绝。

虽然有些动物会伤害我们人类，但那是我们人类破坏了它们的生存环境和食物才导致的。只要我们保护环境、保护动物，让动物和我们一起生活在这个美丽的家园----地球，那我们的生活不就更美好。

让我们和动物一起这个美丽的家园吧！

那天，我妈妈给我买了两只小鸭子。我很高兴，把两只小鸭子放在箱子里，听着它们的叫声，我的心情非常的好。

That day, my mother bought me two little ducks. I am very happy, the two little ducks on the box, listening to their voices, I feel very good.

第二天，我想让同学到我家看看我的鸭子，我给同学打电话，让他来。他看了鸭子，也觉得很好玩。我们把一只小鸭子放在地上，它向前走了几步就摔倒了，它抓了起来，又摔倒了，我们哈哈大笑。我们玩够了，就把小鸭子扔进了箱子里，去玩玩具了。

The second day, I want to have a look to my classmates my duck, I call for students, let him come. He saw a duck, and enjoy it. We put a duck on the ground, it went forward a few steps and then fell, it caught up, and fell down, and we laughed. We play enough, put the duck into the box, to play with toys.

下午，我和爸爸去看小鸭子，看见一只鸭子肚子朝上，翅膀和脚在抖动，它叫的声音很大，好像在哭一样。爸爸把小鸭子扶起来，小鸭子又倒了。我突然想起来我把小鸭子扔进箱子里的事，呀!我是杀人凶手呀!我哭了。小鸭子最后死了，我很伤心。

Afternoon, my father and I went to see the little duck, see a duck belly up, wings and feet in jitter, it sounds great, like crying. Dad put up little duck, duck down. I suddenly remembered that I took the little duck into the box,! I am a murderer! I cried. Little duck finally died, I am very sad.

从那时起，我就开始爱护小动物了。

From then on, I began to love little animal.

大家都知道，动物是人类的朋友，我们要尽量保护我们身边的动物，就算它再凶，别人欺负它也要保护，它们无论如何都是我们的好朋友。上次就被我看见我们班的一个同学欺负一只小狗。

那天，我走在路上，看见班里的同学在欺负一只小狗。他们甚至还对那只小狗使用暴力。我走过去，说：“老师怎么教你的，难道老师上课没告诉你们要保护动物吗？如果你们再不停止，我明天就告诉老师去。”只见他拎着书包就往家里跑。我抱起小狗，回了家。在家里，我告诉了妈妈这只小狗的遭遇，妈妈很同情，拿了个医药箱就来给小狗上药。过了几天，小狗的伤全好了，我把它放生。

保护动物，这是每个人都该做的事情。

我们每个人都有自己喜欢的动物，那么，关于介绍动物的英语作文应该怎么写？今天小编为你整理了关于介绍动物的英语作文，希望对你有用。

The snake is a long and thin animal that lives in graor other dark places. A snake has no legs or feet, but it can move very fast on its stomach. Snakes usually have green, yellow or black skins, which make them difficult for their enemies to find them.Some kinds of snakes live in water. They can swim as freely as fish.

Snakes are cold-blooded animals. In winter they hibernatein holes which are narrow enough only to hold the snakes bodies. The snakes can sleep through a whole winter without eating and moving. They can not feel any pain. The hibernation period lasts about five months. When spring comes, the snakes come out and begin their normal life.

Snakes can take many things as food, such as mice, sparrows, frogs,birds eggs, pests and so on. People sometimes can see a snake eat a sparrow. First it moves close to the sparrow, then it puts out its tongue and brings the sparrow into its mouth and swallows it, which makes a lump in the snakes body. After some time the lump disappears.

As snakes are dreadful-looking, people are afraid of them. Many people drive them away whenever they see snakes. But in Chinese fairy tales, snakes are by no means bad. They seem to have human feelings. They can change into pretty girls. People like and respect them. The most well-known is the story about the White Snake and the Blue Snake.

In fact, snakes are not as dreadful as they look. They can help us to kill mice and pests. They can provide us with delicious meat. Their blood is a good drink. Poisonous snakes are especially useful. We can make valuable drugs with them.

Panda is one of the scarcest animals. People in the world like it very much. there used to be many pandas in China long ago.

[关于介绍动物的英语作文

Excuse me waiter, there’s a shark in my soup

Some 200m years before dinosaurs made their appearance on earth and thus quite some time before Homo sapiens began celebrating nuptials at extravagant wedding banquets, sharks swam the oceans. Sharks are older than trees. They have survived at least four planetary mass extinctions.

在恐龙在地球上出现之前两亿年左右，也就是在现代人(Homo sapiens)开始举办奢华婚宴之前相当久远的时候，鲨鱼们就已经在海洋中游弋。鲨鱼比树还要古老。它们至少经历了四次地球物种灭绝，一直活到了今天。

The link between these ancient predators and contemporary wedding receptions is that, among Chinese people, it is a sign of generosity and prestige to serve guests shark-fin soup. Since there are more than 1.3bn Chinese people, and since they are getting more affluent by the day, that is of no little consequence to the shark population. Some 70m sharks are killed each year for their fins. Much of the time, the fins are sliced off with a blade at sea and the bloody shark torso thrown back in the water to die.

这种古老的食肉动物和当代婚宴之间的联系在于，在中国人眼中，请客人吃鱼翅羹是慷慨与体面的标志。由于中国有13亿多人口，并且中国人一天比一天富裕，吃鱼翅对鲨鱼数量可谓影响重大。为了获取鱼翅，人类每年要捕杀约7000万条鲨鱼。大多数时候，人们在海上用刀把鱼鳍割下来，然后便将血淋淋的鲨鱼躯干扔入海里，任由它们死去。

The California state legislature is debating a bill co-sponsored by Paul Fong, a Chinese-American Democrat, to ban the sale, consumption and trade of shark fin. Hawaii, Oregon and Washington state already impose similar bans. California accounts for 85 per cent of shark fin eaten in the US. The bill sailed through the lower house assembly, but is being held up in the state senate because of concerns it discriminates against Chinese Americans.

加利福尼亚州立法机构正在讨论由民主党人、美籍华人方文忠(Paul Fong)联合提议的一项旨在禁止贩卖、消费和交易鱼翅的议案。夏威夷州、俄勒冈州和华盛顿州已经实施了类似的禁令。加州的鱼翅食用量占到美国鱼翅总食用量的85%。州众议院会议已通过了此项议案，但因担心法案有歧视美籍华人的嫌疑，州参议院还未对其投票表决。

What people eat is, indeed, a sensitive topic and one that generates much hypocrisy. Different cultures have formed their own taboos about what is proper, and not proper, to eat. Muslims and Jews don’t eat pigs, Hindus don’t eat cows and most Americans don’t eat snake or whale. Jains, and vegetarians of all cultures, don’t eat any animals at all.

人们吃什么确实是一个敏感的话题，也会催生许多虚伪的作风。对于可以吃什么、不可以吃什么，不同的文化有着各自的禁忌。穆斯林和犹太教徒不吃猪肉，印度教徒不吃牛肉，而大多数美国人不吃蛇肉或鲸肉。耆那教徒(Jains)和各种文化中的素食主义者都不吃任何动物。

Westerners are particularly prone to turning up their nose at what other people eat. Their position is mostly illogical and sometimes offensive. They tend to mentally divide animals into those you eat (like pigs, sheep and chickens); those you cuddle or stroke (cats, dogs and horses); and those too ugly, unusual or intelligent to eat (say beetles, zebras and dolphins). Many profess to loathe barbarity – think clubbing seals – yet are happy to eat veal or to ignore what goes on in their friendly neighbourhood abattoir.

西方人尤其看不惯其它文化社会的人们所吃的东西。他们的出发点大多不合逻辑，有时可能还会触犯众怒。他们往往在心里把动物分为好几类：吃的(如猪、羊和鸡)、搂抱或抚摸的(猫、狗和马)以及太丑、太怪或太聪明而不能吃的(比如甲虫、斑马和海豚)。许多人都公开对残暴行为表示憎恶——例如用棍子猎杀海豹——但却爱吃小牛肉，或佯装对自己居住的友好社区的屠宰场里发生的一切毫不知晓。

Michael Moore, the American documentary film-maker, brilliantly – if possibly inadvertently – exposed this self-delusion in Roger & Me. In a scene that was meant to highlight the poverty of Flint, Michigan, a woman selling rabbits is shown asking customers if they want “pets or meat”. If the answer is “pet”, the cuddly bunny is handed over to a delighted child. If “meat”, the hapless creature is clubbed to death with a lead pipe and skinned on the spot.

美国纪录片电影制片人迈克尔?摩尔(Michael Moore)在《罗杰和我》(Roger & me)中绘声绘色地(也可能是不经意地)披露了这种自欺欺人的行径。在展现密歇根州弗林特(Flint)贫困状况的一个场景中，有个女人在卖兔子，她问顾客要买“宠物还是兔肉”。如果答案是“宠物”，她就把小兔子交给一个满心欢喜的孩子。如果答案是“兔肉”，她便当场用一根铅管把这个可怜的动物打死并把皮剥下来。

The richer societies get, the more finicky they tend to become. Many (including myself) waste half the animal they have had killed on their behalf, refusing to consume its organs, intestines, brain and so on. These parts are often eaten, and sometimes prized, in non-western societies, particularly in Asia. In their willingness to consume almost all the animal, both China and Japan score far better than most western countries.

社会越是富有，往往就会变得越挑剔。许多人(包括我在内)会浪费掉因为他们而被杀死的动物的一半，我们拒绝食用它们的器官、肠子和脑子等等部位。但在西方之外的社会、尤其是亚洲，人们通常是吃这些的，而且有时还会将其视若珍品。就吃下动物所有部位的意愿而言，中国和日本要远远排在大多数西方国家的前面。

Surely, then, one can’t object to eating shark fin? Yet one can and one should. The reasons are to do with conservation and our broader ecosystem. Some species of shark have been depleted by 70 per cent and a few, such as smooth hammerhead, bull sharks and tiger sharks, by 90 per cent or more. Sharks are the ocean’s top predators. Their absence causes havoc. Off the east coast of America, sharks used to eat bottom-feeding rays. With shark numbers massively depleted, the rays have had a field day devouring scallops, clams and oysters, rapidly reducing stocks.

这么说来，想必我们不能反对吃鱼翅了?不，我们可以反对，而且也应当反对。因为这关系到环境保护以及更广泛生态系统的保护。一些种类的鲨鱼数量已减少了70%，少数几个种类的数量减少了90%，例如平双髻鲨、牛鲨和虎鲨。鲨鱼是位于海洋食物链最顶端的捕食者。若没有它们，生态系统会发生混乱。在美国东海岸附近，鲨鱼通常以在水底觅食的魟鱼为食。由于鲨鱼数量急剧减少，魟鱼就会趁机吃掉很多扇贝、蛤蜊和牡蛎，使这些物种的数量迅速减少。

Once shark fins are dried and in jars, it is all but impossible to tell what kind of shark they came from or whether they were finned. At one store in the Sheung Wan district of Hong Kong, a city where half the world’s shark fin is traded, a salesman admits he has no idea whether the fins come from endangered species. His shop does not sell shark meat, and he says it could be true that the carcase is simply tossed into the sea. As well as the cruelty, there is also the incredible waste. The average shark stretches to about 10 bowls of soup.

鲨鱼的鳍一旦被晒干并放入罐里，便几乎无可判断它们来自哪种鲨鱼，或者是否是被割下来的。在鱼翅交易量占全球一半的香港，上环区一家商店的一位销售人员坦承，他不清楚店里的鱼翅是否来自濒危鲨鱼。他的店里不卖鲨鱼肉，并且他表示，鲨鱼的尸体被直接抛回海里可能是真事。岂止是残忍，这也是一种巨大的浪费。平均每条鲨鱼只能加工出大约10碗鱼翅汤。

Certainly, shark fin is traditional. As one writer points out, to ask people to stop eating it is the equivalent of suggesting Americans give up turkey for Thanksgiving. There is doubtless a case for banning other types of food, such as some types of caviar and some species of whale. But cultures are not immutable. Traditions change, especially when they are unsustainable.

不错，鱼翅是一种传统食物。正如一位作家所指出的那样，要求人们不吃鱼翅就好比让美国人过感恩节时不要吃火鸡。我们无疑有理由禁止食用其它食物，比如某类鱼子酱和某些种类的鲸。但文化也不是一成不变的。传统会发生变化，尤其是当它们难以为继的时候。

Fortunately, many of the most prominent campaigners against shark fin are Chinese, with Yao Ming, the recently retired basketball sensation, among the most passionate. In Hong Kong, where shark fin used to be de rigueur at Cantonese banquets, many young people refuse to eat it. Besides, sharks have less cachet now they are siphoned from the oceans on an industrial scale.

值得庆幸的是，在反对吃鱼翅的最著名活动人士之中，许多都是中国人，比如近期退役的篮球明星姚明，就是行动最积极的人士之一。在香港，鱼翅曾是粤宴上的必备菜肴，但如今许多青年人拒绝食用鱼翅。此外，在捕杀鲨鱼实现工业化规模的今天，鱼翅的身价已大不如前。

In Canada, more than a few ethnic Chinese couples have made a show of not serving shark fin at their wedding. Judy Lao recently told the Vancouver Province why she didn’t have it at her reception. “We don’t really care, our friends don’t care, and shark fin has no nutritional value anyway,” she said. “So why should we serve it?” Why indeed.

在加拿大，许多对华裔夫妇已做出表率，在婚宴上不供应鱼翅。Judy Lao最近向《温哥华省报》(Vancouver Province)解释了，为什么她的婚宴没有上鱼翅。“我们并不介意这些，我们的朋友也不介意，再说鱼翅根本也没有什么营养价值，”她表示。“所以，我们为什么要上鱼翅呢?”确实，这有什么必要呢?

Whenever I go to school, she will always send me a little way, until I pretended to be angry hit it two or three, it quietly ran home. It not only can drive me to school, also like to race with me, very fast, sometimes, left me for a long walk. At ordinary times, it seems very timid, but when he saw a stranger, but not brave to open eyes of a strangers every move, also called out when key,

It is really a clever and loyal dog!

When I come home from school, but a dog is the most happy time. As long as the dog at home, Im on my way home from school to home some way can always see the dog at the door waiting for me. It saw me, will be shaking his tail to me on the way to here. And then bouncing around after my people predecessors. So clever dog can not likable?

I wish to raise the dog to the white white fat, because its so cute.

我喜欢的小动物是一只小狗，它全身长满白色的毛，像一团棉花糖;眼睛是圆溜溜的，像两颗宝石;耳朵是半圆形，鼻子是黑色，尾巴短短的，很可爱。

我给它爱吃的骨头，它会一块一块，一小段一小段地啃。它啃完骨头后，就会汪汪地叫几声，好像在说：“小主人，谢谢你。”

每当我去上学，她总是会送我一段路程，直到我假装生气打它两三下，它才乖乖地跑回家去。它不但会送我去上学，还喜欢和我一起赛跑，跑得十分快，有时，把我落了一段路程。平时，它看起来很胆小，但看见陌生人时，却又不失威猛地睁着双眼紧盯着陌生人的一举一动，关键时还会大声叫，

它真是一只机灵又尽忠职守的小狗啊!

我放学回家时，可算是小狗最开心的时候。只要小狗在家，我在放学回家的路上离家门口还有一段路总可看见小狗在门前等着我。它看见了我，就会摇着尾巴往我这里飞奔而来，然后在我人前人后蹦来蹦去。这么机灵的小狗能不讨人喜欢吗?

我很希望把这只小狗养得白白胖胖，因为它实在太可爱了。

As time goes by, man is making the earth sick. People cut down too many trees and leave rubbish everywhere. Factories let out their waste without doing anything to it . This has caused some serious problems. Such as the land is sandy, the river is dirty, the air is less clean, even the temperature of the earth is rising. What should we do to save the earth ? My suggestion is that we should plant more trees, put rubbish into dusbins and stop factories (from)pouring waste directly into the air or rivers. In all, we have only one earth, we should do our best to protect it, or we will regret.

在这世界上，有许多濒临绝种的动物，而它们面临的重重危机，多半是由人类所造成，例如：我们乱丢垃圾使河川受到污染、工厂以及汽机车所排放的废气使空气不再干净，为了开发和建设不断破坏山林。有时我在想，如果没有人类的存在，地球会不会变得更好呢?为了要弥补我们所污染的环境，并且要重视及提倡“保护生态”的观念。

由于生物不停的变少，陆陆续续出现了保护野生动物的公益团体，而这些集团不断倡导要爱护动物、保护动物，因此，野生动物的生存权渐渐被重视，不过光靠这些热心人士的帮忙仍是杯水车薪，我们更应该从日常生活中落实，假如全世界的人每天都能随手关灯，至少可以救回一只可爱的北极熊;假如全世界的人都能 减少塑胶的使用量，就有许多生物的肚子里面没有垃圾的存在;假如我们能减少废气的排放量，就可以使空气更为干净，不只保护动物，同时也是保护我们自己。

我们对于保护生态的观念应该推广到每一个角落，深植于人们的心中，无时无刻要懂得尊重其它生命，所有生命都是可贵的，我们无法即时扭转人们想要滥杀动物的想法，因为，有时关系到人们的生存与工作，但是，我们可以靠身体力行来改变别人想法，来落实保护生态的意义。

有时，我们应该将心比心，设身处地为那些因人类而丧生的动物，他们临死前的哀嚎，正是他们的求救讯号，他们也是生物，同时也是一个个宝贵的生命，我们并不能因为自认为高等，而残害其它的生命。

Recently we have held a class meeting to discuss what is considered to be honorable behavior and what is shameful.It is really a pity to see all this in our school.Some students don’t respect their teachers or parents. Some don’t take their studies seriously and cheat in exams. Some throw wastes everywhere and pollute the environment . It is honorable to obey the law and rules , care much about our class and study hard.It is shameful to break school rules, to be selfish or to make little effort to achieve success.We should respect others and think more of them than of ourselves.We should work hard and make much more progress to repay the society.We should try our best to keep the environment clean。

Today I am very glad here to share my opinionsabout the protection of environment.

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.

Thank you for listening！

作文【一】

One day Sun Wukong together with his master and brothers was walking across a river. Suddenly his master fell off the horse by the bad smell of river water. They found the water so dirty that they could hardly breathe.

A lot of factories along the river always poured their waste water and rubbish straight into the river which made the river water polluted. In this way most of the fish in the river were killed. If the river water all over the country is polluted like this, no living things will exist in the water. Now more and more people have come to realize how serious this problem is. Our government is doing her best to take measures to fight against pollution. We expect that the water in every river will be made cleaner and cleaner before long.

作文【二】

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.

作文【三】

Dear editor,

Environmental problems are becoming more and more serious all over the world. _________________________________________________________

Yours truly

Li Hua

Dear editor,

Environmental problems are becoming more and more serious all over the world.

With the development of industry and agriculture, cars make great noises and give off poisonous gas. Because of population expansion and overdevelopment, resources has become less and less. Trees on the hills have been cut down, and waste water is being poured continuously into rivers. The whole ecological balance of the earth is changing. Massive destruction of environment has brought about negative effects and even poses a great threat to man’s existence.

We must face the situation that exists and take actions to solve our environmental problems. We hope that all these measures will be effective and bring back a healthful environment.

Yours truly

Li Hua

Green water show in the future there is a mountain city, the mountain forests, lush; A stream of water on the bottom; Air pure and fresh and sweet. Industries where there is no smoke, no river floating in a plastic bag, without being cut down trees, only a piece of green.

In the future, humans and animals and plants live in peace, a shotgun into each bird, chainsaw into hits the thick, strong, tall and straight trees, the atomic bomb in the museum, and pulled down the factory chimney, spread a far-reaching blue sky... Then have no the word "cage" in the world, it is full of human and animal for a walk, play games together. To do this, human also built a school to educate minors, animal, building on the twelve golden characters: the "people live in harmony, to build better homes!"

However, the future may also be another scene like: neat rows of factory was built on the hillside, its discharge smoke originally cbsi cbsi pollution became gray sky. The river became smelly, dark, light, cutting down the trees bare stumps, there are many, white plastic bags. Many years later, a sandstorm thoroughly changed all that, that day, dust storm flood came, the whole world of darkness covert, dust storms have been shaved nine days nine nights, all the cities, factories are all turned into desert, everything vanished.

Kid, the above two kinds of the future city which one do you want to let the world become? If you want the first kind, is to protect the environment, come on!

在未来有一个山青水秀的城市，山上的森林郁郁葱葱;小溪的河水清澈见底;空气清新甜润。那里没有工厂排出的浓烟，没有河上漂浮的塑料袋，没有被砍伐的树木，只有一片的绿色。

在未来，人类与动植物和平相处，猎枪变成了一只只的小鸟，电锯变成了一棵棵粗壮、结实、挺拔的大树，原子弹在博物馆展出，而工厂的烟囱被拆掉，铺成了湛蓝深远的天空……那时世界上已经没有了“笼子”这个词，处处可见人类和动物一起散步、做游戏的场景。为此，人类还建了一所学校来培养未成年人、动物，教学楼上闪着十二个金灿灿的大字：“大家和谐相处，共建美好家园!”

然而，未来也可能是另外一种景像：一排排的工厂整齐的被建在山坡上，它排出的浓烟把原本瓦蓝瓦蓝的天空污染成了灰色。河水变得臭了、黑了，树木被砍光了，裸露的树桩上有许多的、白色的塑料袋。许多年以后，一场沙尘暴彻底改变了这一切，那一天，沙尘暴铺天盖地地袭来，整个世界昏天暗地，沙尘暴一直刮了九天九夜，所有的城市、工厂全变成了沙漠，一切都消失了。

小朋友，以上两种未来城市你想让世界变成哪一种呢?如果想要第一种，就赶快保护环境，行动起来吧!
