The trickle of water was crystal clear, accompanied by the sound of the "ding dong" of the spring. The undulating mountain stands erect, majestic and overwhelming; The green trees, towering above the tops of the mountains, are not afraid to be afraid; The wild flowers, which are in the top of the mountain, are full of beauty and beauty, and the fresh flowers are pleasing to the soul.

Its a sunny afternoon, my mother and I happily went downstairs for a walk, inadvertently, I found on the green lawn with an old, dirty battery. Battery is harmful to our environment a major killer! A grain of small button battery can be 600 cubic meters of water pollution, the equivalent of a mans lifes water consumption; Section 1 battery rot in the field, can lose one square metre of land utilization value, and cause permanent public nuisance. Think about this, I ran to my mother had said it again, I say again: "mom, I want to throw waste batteries into the dustbin."

“保护环境，人人有责”，说到保护环境，我就想起了一件事。

这是一个阳光明媚的中午，我和妈妈高高兴兴地下楼散步，无意中，我发现在绿油油的草坪上有一个废旧的、脏兮兮的电池。电池可是危害我们生存环境的一大杀手!一粒小小的钮扣电池可污染600立方米水，相当于一个人一生的饮水量;一节一号电池烂在地里，能使一平方米的土地失去利用价值，并造成永久性公害。想到这，我跑到妈妈跟前把这件事儿说了一遍，我又说：“妈妈，我想把废电池扔到垃圾箱里。”妈妈觉得我说得很有道理，我欢快地跑到废电池旁边，心想：我真是做了一件有意义的事啊!我轻轻地捡起废电池，扔进了垃圾箱里。

“勿以善小而不为，勿以恶小而为之。”作为一名小学生，我们要从我做起，从小事儿做起，从身边做起，从现在做起，捡起地上每一片纸屑，爱护花草树木，关爱小动物。让我们一起去寻找绿的世界，让我们的世界变得更加美好!

Everyone can do something for our environment. For me, I should try to save electricity in my daily life. For example, if I am the last person leave the classroom in the evening, I will always remember to turn off the lights. In order to protect our forests, I will use paper wisely. I should try to use both sides of paper whenever it is possible. I will not use things like paper cups and disposable chopsticks because they are made of wood. I believe that doing all these small things will improve our environment and help make our world a better place to live in.

[保护濒危熊猫的英语作文

The way people hold the belief that a fun-filled， pain-free lifestyle

equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever obtaining real

happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness，then pain must be equal to

unhappiness. But in fact，the opposite is true： more often than not things that

lead to happiness contain some pain.

As a result，many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true

happiness.They fear the pain inevitably (不可避免地) brought by such things as

marriage，raising children，professional achievement， religious commitment，

self-improvement.

Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be

less and less satisfying. If he is honest，he will tell you that he is afraid of

making a commitment，for commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is

filled with fun， adventure and excitement.Marriage has such moments，but they are

not its most distinguishing features.

Couples，with infant children， are lucky to get a whole nights sleep of a

three-day vacation. We dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to

describe raising children. But couples that decide not to have children ever

know the joys of watching a child grow up or playing with a grandchild.

Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun

is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time： now we can devote

more hours to activities that can really increase our happiness. It liberates

money：buying that new car or those fancy clothes to increase our happiness now

seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy：we now understand that all those

who always have so much fun actually may not be happy at all.

I like reading books so much, rencently, I fall in love with the travel

books. When I open these books, I am attracted by the colorful pictures. Reading

these books can broaden my vision, I know there are so many places that I have

never heard of before. I also learn the different culture. I am so eager to go

to these places and have a look at them. So I have made up my mind, I will

travel to the places that are around me first, and then when I grow up, I will

travel further. This is my little dream, it is also my motivation to study

well.

Animals Need Protecting Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history. Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today.

About 170 kinds in the United States aloneare considered in danger. Why should people care? Because we need animals, and because once they are gone, there will never be any more.Animals are more than just beautiful or interesting. They are more than just a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems. For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks, the farmers stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice, with no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice multiplied quickly. Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals.

Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger. Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid the killing of any animal or planton the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.

动物需要保护动物是自然资源,人们浪费了所有通过我们的历史。动物被杀的毛皮和羽毛,食物,运动,仅仅因为他们的方式。成千上万种动物已经从这个地球上永远地消失了。数以百计的今天也在名单之列。

在美国大约有170种aloneare认为是危险的。为什么人们会在意吗?因为我们需要动物,因为一旦他们消失了,再也不会了。动物不仅仅是漂亮或有趣。他们不仅仅是一种食物。每个动物都有其自然的平衡。毁灭一种动物会产生很多问题。例如,当农民杀死大量的鹰派,农民的玉米和谷物被老鼠和老鼠。为什么?因为鹰吃鼠类,没有鹰控制它们的数量,鼠类繁殖很快。幸运的是,有些人正在努力帮助拯救这些动物。

一些组织筹钱让人们了解这一问题。和他们试图使政府通过保护濒危动物的法律。很多国家已经通过了法律。这些法律禁止杀害任何动物或planton名单之列。慢慢地,某些濒危动物的数目正在增长。

As we can see, the world population is growing rapidly day by day. So enough fresh water is needed to feed such a big population. Whats more, with the development of industry, factories and vehicles produce poisonous gases or wastes, which consequently results in the pollution of water. Though fresh, a good amount of it can no longer be used. Only quite limited fresh water resource is available to human beings. So its high time for us human beings to take quick action to protect water resource. Stop pollution and save water, otherwise, we cannot survive on the earth.

With fresh water, the world will be prosperous.

日常生活中，水是不可缺少的。

水在有些人眼里显得一文不值，但是在珍惜生命的人的眼里是非常宝贵的！有些人会想：水是永远都在的，尽管浪费着好了，水是不会用完的！

好几次在学校里，我看见很多二年级的小朋友洗手总是不关水龙头，水花四溅！任它流着……“哗哗哗，哗哗哗，哗哗哗，哗哗哗，哗——”这是水的叹息，它在叹息：为什么要浪费我？

那些不节约水的人，想过没：浪费水资源也是在浪费自己的生命，白白地糟蹋生命！

我看那些人是要等到干旱了的时候，水没了！才会想到自己的过错，可来不及了！那个时候，有一滴水也是好的！

想想看，你渴口的时候是谁帮你解决困难？帮你身体清洗干净的是谁？是水。

谁是生命的唯一源泉！珍惜水资源！珍爱生命！让我们的明天更美好！

[二年级保护水资源作文

Environmental protection, there are many problems at present. The most serious problems is the serious pollution of air, water and soil. Air pollution is very harmful to human health. Polluted water causes pain, resulting in death. Whats more, with the rapid expansion of modern society, vegetation greatly reduced.

In order to protect the environment, governments have done a lot of work. Adopted legislative measures to control air pollution, to protect forest resources and Marine resources and to stop any environmental pollution. Therefore, in todays government plays a most important role in environmental protection.

My view is that, in order to protect the environment, the government should take more concrete measures. First of all, should by the methods of education make people fully realize the importance of environmental protection. Second, should be more efforts to put the family planning policy into practice, because more people means severe pollution. Finally, to severely punish those who intentionally damage the environment. That they damage the environment is the destruction of man himself.

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，各国政府做了大量的工作。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，应当通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己。

周恩来是中华人民共和国的开国总理，在主持国家行政管理事务、领导经济建设长达27年的岁月中，他十分重视生态环境保护，特别对水生态环境的保护，倾注了大量的心力，在理论上作出艰辛的探索，开启了新中国水生态环境保护事业的新局面。

一、保护水生态环境思想的初步成型

水生态环境的保护，就一个国家来说包括陆地的水土保持、治理水土流失，及治理江河水系、近岸海域的水污染等项内容。据此来看周恩来保护水生态环境的思想发展历程，历经初步成型和丰富完善两个阶段。20世纪50年代初期至60年代末是第一阶段。在此阶段，周恩来针对新中国水土流失的状况，特别是西北黄土高原水土流失的现实，积极探索治理方略，把治理水土流失、整治沟坡与植树造林紧密结合起来，强调从源头上根治的重要性，在理论上作了精湛论述。

作为一个大陆性气候为主和农耕文明悠久的国家，中国森林和植被的覆盖率是相当低的，1949年全国森林覆盖率的概数为8.6%。[1]森林覆盖率低致使自然生态环境恶劣，十分明显地表现在水土流失上，全国水土流失面积约150万平方公里，相当于国土面积的1/6。黄河流经的黄土高原地区水土流失严重，面积达58万平方公里。[2]新中国建立之初百废待兴，周恩来在领导治淮、治黄的同时，对治理水土流失给予极大的关注，思考着解决的途径。他多次指出，森林植被的破坏是造成水土流失的关键性原因。中国的森林覆盖率很低，和世界上许多森林国家相比还差得很远。1951年9月7日，周恩来在主持第101次政务会议讨论全国灾情问题时强调了造林、护林的重要性，指出“靠山吃山，靠水吃水”这两句话，就要写得适当才行，否则，“靠山吃山”，把树都砍光了，水灾就来了。[3]

1952年12月26日，周恩来审阅签发了《政务院关于发动群众继续开展防旱抗旱运动并大力推行水土保持工作的指示》(以下简称《指示》)，对全国尤其是对黄河流域的水土保持工作怎样开展作出全面部署。《指示》首先明确了水土保持的战略地位和区域重点，指出：“水土保持是一项长期的改造自然的工作。由于各河治本和山区生产的需要，水土保持工作，目前已属刻不容缓”。“应以黄河的支流，无定河、延水，及泾、渭、洛诸河流域为全国的重点。”其次，《指示》对水土保持的治理方针和技术路线作了全面、科学的阐述，明确提出：“首先应在山区丘陵和高原地带有计划地封山、造林、种草和禁开陡坡，以涵蓄水流和巩固表土，同时应推行先进的耕种方法，如修梯田、挑旱渠、等高种植和牧草轮作等方法，期使降落的雨水尽量就地渗入，缓和下流，不致形成冲刷的流势和流量。对于已经冲刷的山溪沟壑，即应先支沟，后干沟，自上而下，由小而大地修筑拦沙坝和缓流坝，以改变沟壑纵向的坡度，延缓洪水下泄的速度，截留其挟带下泄的泥沙，淤出的土地并可增加生产。”[4]由此可看出，《指示》中明确地提出了水土保持的三大基本措施，即耕作措施、林草措施、工程措施，充分体现了水土保持的综合性，且正确地处理了工程与生物、治坡与治沟的关系，为尔后数十年我国水土流失的治理措施指出了方向。1956年至1958年，国务院水土保持委员会提出的“全面规划，综合开发，坡沟兼治，集中治理”的方针;1973年至1977年，治黄领导小组提出的“以土为首，土水林综合治理，为农业生产服务”的方针，虽具体提法不同，但是对于水土流失必须综合治理，必须正确对待工程与生物、治坡与治沟等的要求，都是在《指示》精神的指导下提出的。第三，关于水土保持的工作方针和组织路线，《指示》中提出：“水土保持是群众性、长期性和综合性的工作，必须结合生产的实际需要，发动群众组织起来长期进行，才能收到预期的功效”，“必须依靠群众，通过群众，使群众自愿地行动起来”;水土保持要以“预防为主”，要“深入调查研究”，“总结当地的经验”，要“拟定因地制宜的计划”，水土保持“必须与农、林、水利和畜牧各项开发计划密切配合，才能巩固和扩大工作的成绩”，“各级农、林、水利部门必须组织一定力量协助各地群众，及时给予技术指导。”[5]《指示》下达后，水土保持工作在全国特别是黄河流域逐步展开。陕西、山西、甘肃等省一些水土保持搞得较好的地、县、乡、村和小流域，其主要经验就是认真执行了《指示》中的具体要求。

开展水土保持工作的路途不是平坦的。由于50年代全国各地在经济建设中追求速度，采用的多是粗放型经营方式，未能注重经济发展与资源、生态环境的和谐关系，特别是1958年兴起的三年大跃进运动，在大炼钢铁和大办工业中，大砍树木，到处垦荒，对森林植被、生态环境造成巨大破坏。面对这样严峻的现实，50年代末至60年代初，周恩来在许多重要场合一再地讲水土保持、植树造林对于水生态环境的重要性。他认为，森林植被的破坏和减少，不仅是造成许多大河流域的水土流失，而且是造成沙化的根源。为此，周恩来还用追溯历史的方法，不止一次地讲古人在经济活动中砍伐森林带来的负面影响，以史为鉴，警示今人。1957年11月4日周恩来在接见埃及文化代表团时谈道：“古老文化还损伤了大自然，中国有林的山只有百分之十，好多都是荒山，古代人只知建设不知保护森林，后代子孙深受其害。”[6]1964年6月21日周恩来接见英国前坎特伯雷教长约翰逊夫妇时谈道：“文化越古的国家，越不知道保护森林，树木越少。我去过的地方，如从尼罗河经过中东、中亚细亚，到中国这一大片，都如此。”[7]“黄土高原是我们祖宗的摇篮地，是民族文化的发源地，但是这个地方的森林被破坏了”。[8]

在这一阶段，周恩来不仅对黄土高原地区的水土保持工作倾注了大量心血，对南方地区出现的水土流失也十分关切，及时给予具体指导。1964年12月至1965年1月，周恩来在出席第三届全国人民代表大会第一次会议期间，看到有关江西兴国地区由于水土流失严重、河床逐年升高的提案后，对江西省委负责人说：这件事，江西省委要抓，要解决问题。又说：解决兴国的淤沙，一要挖沙筑坝，二要从根本上解决问题，严禁滥砍乱伐上游的森林，大力植树造林，搞好水土保持，固住泥沙不下流。造林是百年大计，黄河流域可以造林固沙挡风，江西山区多，我们不能光采伐不造林育林，光吃祖宗饭，造子孙孽。只要我们有雄心壮志，长期搞下去，增加森林覆盖率，兴国的淤沙问题就可以迎刃而解。[9]

二、保护水生态环境思想的完善

进入70年代，随着水污染问题愈益突出，保护水生态环境工作增添了新内涵。周恩来敏锐地认识到治理水污染、保护水生态的重要意义，果断采取一系列措施，推动中国水生态环境保护事业的开展。至此，周恩来保护水生态环境的思想，从内涵上看已论及水生态环境保护的各主要方面，日臻丰富完善。

20世纪60至70年代，随着工业化、城市化进程的快速推进，经济发展与生态环境间的矛盾愈益彰显出来，世界上不少国家已把环境问题提到了议事日程，对由于经济发展所带来的诸如大气、水质、噪声以及固体废弃物的污染采取措施，进行治理。这一时期，中国的水生态环境已开始受到破坏，一些工业集中地区环境污染严重，直接危害了人民群众的健康。

官厅水库是北京市主要供水水源地之一。1971年官厅水库由于长期受入库河流桑干河、洋河等携带的工业废水、生活污水污染，水库水质变坏，水色浑黄，漂有白沫，有苦药味，死鱼增加。水库大坝东侧北寨等4个村的群众饮用库水后出现无力、头痛、背痛等症状。1972年3月，怀来、大兴县一带群众，因吃了官厅水库有异味的鱼，发生恶心、呕吐等症状。化验表明水库水质已受到污染，并有恶化趋势。[10]这一事件引起了国务院和周恩来的重视，国务院批准北京市成立官厅水库水源保护领导小组，万里任组长，下设办公室，统一管理水源保护工作。[11]根据周恩来关于查清官厅水库水源污染情况的指示，官厅水库水源保护领导小组在作了详细、大量实地调查后，写出《关于桑干河水系污染情况的调查报告》。9月5日，国务院批转了这个报告，并作出批示，要求各有关部门和地区必须严肃对待此事，积极行动起来，根治桑干河的污染，一抓到底，不要半途而废。[12]官厅水库水源保护领导小组采取了综合利用、化害为利、改革工艺、减少污染、污水净化处理等积极的治理措施，经过3年努力，到1975年测定，官厅水库水质已经好转。1976年以后，水库水质基本接近饮用水标准。[13]

至70年代初，周恩来已清醒地意识到中国环境问题的严重性和紧迫性。他利用出席各种会议，会见各界人士以及审阅文件、处理问题和去各地视察等多种机会，一再强调环境保护的重要意义。1971年4月5日，周恩来在接见全国交通工作会议代表谈到环境保护问题时，提出：在经济建设中的废水、废气、废渣不解决，就会成为公害。发达的资本主义国家公害很严重，我们要认识到经济发展中会遇到这个问题，采取措施解决。[14]1972年9月8日，周恩来在邀集国家计委和各省、市、自治区负责人参加的会议上，对治理“三废”(工业废水、废气、废渣)问题作出指示：我们在搞经济建设的同时，就应该抓紧解决这个问题，绝对不做贻害子孙后代的事。[15]与此同时，周恩来接连作出了有关中国开展环境保护工作的部署。

1972年6月5日至16日，联合国在斯德哥尔摩召开了人类环境会议，这是人类历史上第一次有关保护环境的全球会议。此时，中国尚处于非常封闭的情况下，“文化大革命”还在如火如荼地进行，阶级斗争仍是当时的主旋律。但周恩来远见卓识，决定组成40人余的中国代表团参加这一世界性会议。关于参加会议的目的，周恩来指示：通过这次会议，了解世界环境状况和各国环境问题对经济、社会发展的重大影响，并以此作为镜子，认识中国的环境问题。[16]起初代表团人员由卫生部门组织，周恩来觉得，环境保护工作是综合性的工作，不仅仅涉及卫生部门，单独由卫生部门组团出席这次会议是不全面的。他要求工业部门也参加。后来，他又提出要国家计划委员会的同志也参加。最后，中国派出了以燃料化学工业部副部长唐克为团长、国家计划委员会副主任顾明为副团长的代表团。代表团成员来自多个部门。

周恩来还亲自修改和审定了代表团带到会议上的与会报告。针对当时在环境问题上的极“左”观点，他明确指示代表团应实事求是，并在修改与会报告时加上了“中国也存在环境问题”一节。在他的指导和与会代表的共同努力下，中国代表团在人类环境会议上开展了卓有成效的工作。代表团提出了修改《人类环境宣言》草案的十个主要原则，联合发展中国家推动大会对宣言草案做了较大的修改，使修改后的内容更加有利于发展中国家。[17]

1973年8月5日至20日，在周恩来指导下，国务院在北京召开首次全国环境保护会议。各省、市、自治区革命委员会主管计划和城市建设的负责同志，国务院有关部门的领导，开展综合利用、除害兴利较好的厂矿企业代表，科学研究部门和大专院校的代表，共300多人参加了会议。国务院副总理李先念、余秋里等也参加了会议。会议较充分地披露了中国的环境问题。比如，官厅水库的污染、火力发电厂的污染、黄河沿岸八省区工业“三废”对黄河水的污染。这些触目惊心的事实，使代表们深切地了解到中国水域、大气、土地已经遭受了严重的污染和破坏。会议期间先后印发了6期《简报增刊》和6期《环境保护情况反映》，集中反映环境污染和生态破坏方面的情况。这些资料除了在会议上印发，还由国家计划委员会向各省、市、自治区革命委员会和国务院各部门转发，“虽然在通知上注明‘请注意保密’，但是，实际上把环境污染和生态破坏的情况通报了全国”。[18]

首次全国环境保护会议审议并通过《关于保护和改善环境的若干规定(试行草案)》，提出并制定《关于加强全国环境监测工作意见》和《自然保护区暂行条例》，正式确立“全面规划、合理布局、综合利用、化害为利、依靠群众、大家动手、保护环境、造福人民”的32字环境保护方针。会议结束不久，国务院批转了国家计划委员会上报的《关于保护和改善环境的若干规定(试行草案)》。这是中国生态环境保护史上第一个由国务院批转的具有法规性质的文件，是新中国生态环境保护立法的起点。这个文件共有10条。第1条和第2条是重点，分别提出“要做好全面规划”和“工业要合理布局”;第3条“要改善老城市的环境”，规定保护水源，消烟除尘，治理污染;第4条“要大搞综合利用，除害兴利”，规定“一切新建、扩建和改建企业，防治污染项目，必须与主体工程同时设计，同时施工，同时投产”;其余6条分别对水土保持和植被保护、水系和海域的管理、植树造林绿化祖国、环境监测、环境科学研究和宣传教育、环境保护投资和设备等做出规定。[19]

这次会议推动中国的生态环保事业向前迈出了一大步。在周恩来的多次指示和关注下，从中央到地方相继建立起环境保护机构、环境监测和科研机构。1974年5月国务院环境保护领导小组办公室成立，负责统筹规划、全面安排环境保护工作并监督实施。各省、市、自治区和国务院主要部门相继建立了环境保护机构，许多地、市以上城市和大中型工矿企业也设置了环境保护机构或专职人员。有关环境保护的法规先后出台，如《森林采伐更新规程》(1973年)、《工业三废排放试行标准》(1973年)、《中华人民共和国防止沿海水域污染暂行规定》(1974年)等。也正是从这时起，一批国外先进的环境监测仪器设备引进国门。官厅水库的水质污染、包头钢铁厂的烟尘等“三废”污染得到了有效的治理。

三、两个鲜明的特点

纵观周恩来领导水生态环境保护事业的实践及其思想的形成和发展，有两个特点十分鲜明，感人至深。

一是始终心忧水生态环境。自新中国建国伊始至70年代中期的二十余年时间里，周恩来在繁忙的国务活动中始终心系水生态环境保护事业，发表和作出的有关治理水土流失、植树造林、治理水污染等保护水生态环境的谈话、指示、批示等，仅中央文献研究室编三卷本《周恩来年谱(1949—1976)》能查到的就达34次[20]。这其中50年代12次，60年代16次，70年代6次，呈现分布频次均衡，时间悠长的特征。

由于50年代经济建设中的粗放型经营模式和大跃进运动的负面影响，水生态环境保护工作的成效并不明显。周恩来对此心情十分沉重。1966年2月，在全国林业工作会议之前，周恩来对林业部的负责人说：我当总理十六年，有两件事交不了账，一是黄河、一是林业。[21]会议期间，周恩来接见了西北各省、自治区林业厅(局)长及西北林业建设兵团的代表，他语重心长地说：“工业犯了错误，一二年就可能转过来，林业和水利上犯了错误，多少年也翻不过身来。我最担心的，一个是治水治错了，一个是林子砍多了。治水治错了，树砍多了，下一代人也要说你。我国森林覆盖率只有百分之十多一点。十六年来，全国砍多于造，是亏了。二十世纪还剩下三十几年，再亏下去不得了。造林是百年大计，要好好搞。”[22]针对西北地区的特殊条件他指出：“西北黄土高原搞了多少年造林啦?劳大功小，要很好总结经验。”“西北地区造林要集中在黄河泥沙主要来源地区，不要孤零零地分散搞。分散了，投资很大，功效很小，起不了多大作用。”[23]周恩来要求西北地区总结经验，成立一个统管农林和水土保持的领导小组，协调好各方面的关系，开展工作。

即便在外事活动中，周恩来仍关注着水生态的保护。1973年9月16日，周恩来陪同法国总统蓬皮杜游览杭州西湖时，看到机动游艇船尾漂散的油污，对浙江省的负责人说：现在世界上许多著名的风景湖区都被污染了，水草枯死，鱼类绝迹，再不能游览观赏，我们的西湖不能污染。为了给我们的子孙后代留下一个风景如画的西湖，也为了让更多外宾在这胜似天堂的湖光山色中一饱眼福，今后西湖内应少用机动游艇，以避免湖水污染。[24]此后，得知西湖已在试用电瓶船时，周恩来甚为欣慰。

二是实事求是，直面中国的水生态问题。在“文化大革命”的特殊年代，周恩来能够力排“左”的干扰，实事求是，直面中国的水污染现状。1971年10月9日，周恩来陪同埃塞俄比亚皇帝塞拉西参观北京东方红石油化工总厂。鉴于厂方接待人员介绍该厂污水处理工程言过其实，周恩来要求在赠送埃方的纪录片中剪掉不符合实际的镜头。[25]1972年6月为参加联合国首届人类环境会议，中国代表团按规定须提交一份报告。周恩来在审阅报告草稿时，发现其中大讲中国取得的建设成就，而对污染、公害问题却只字未提。阅后，他对起草人严肃地说：“还是实事求是嘛!我们也有环境问题，不好回避。西方环境不像你们讲得那么差，我们这里也没有这么好，污染到处都有，一些地区很严重。北京就有污水，冒黑烟。”[26]周恩来不但对报告草稿提出具体意见，还亲自提笔修改。于是，在中国代表团提交大会的报告中，增加了“中国也存在环境问题”一节。周恩来坚持实事求是，直面中国的水污染等生态环境问题，在当时的政治氛围里是需要信念、勇气和远见的，是他对党和人民事业强烈的使命感和责任感使然。

We live earth is deteriorating rapidly, did we have to pay attention to their own living environment cause harm to nature, you must not throw sundry, especially those serious pollution of garbage, waste batteries, for example, because the section waste batteries contain heavy metals, if flow to clean the water, it is very much pollution, then try to save trees made items such as paper, pencils, because waste these things is the destruction of the forest. Also try to use less disposable lunch box, chopsticks and plastic bags and other items, so as to avoid unnecessary waste and reduce waste.

There are some tips: walking to closing the master switch, in order to avoid electrical appliances overheating explosion, a waste of money and waste of electricity, save water, to shut the tap when brushing your teeth, wash dish water to rice, rice water to water the flowers, wash water can sweep the floor, so we can reduce some waste. 12 dont hunt wild animals, animal protection is absolutely cant kill, but dont kill the common animals such as frogs, because frogs eat 15000 bugs for us, and most are pests. Some people often dont think that is, the stubborn still, so we should try to eat less wild animals, lead to wild animals, the drop in sales no longer killing of wild animals.

Our forest is called oxygen plant, so to take good care of flowers and plants, not to destroy the city greening, and actively participate in. But also to cut down trees less, dont waste wood items, because waste these things is to destroy the forest, so be used sparingly, to protect the forests of less and less.

Use energy-saving lamps to replace the ordinary light bulb, although some expensive but can use less electricity. I appeal to you: in our daily actions to protect earths environment, let our children and grandchildren live in a beautiful environment!

我们生活的地球正在迅速恶化，我们不得不注意一下自己的生活环境有没有对大自然造成危害，大家必须必须别乱丢杂物，特别是那些污染严重的垃圾，比如废电池，因为一节废电池中所含的重金属，如果流到清洁的水中，它造成的污染是非常厉害的，其次要尽量节约纸张、铅笔等树木造的物品，因为浪费了这些东西就是毁灭森林。还要尽量少用一次性饭盒、筷子和塑料袋等物品，以免造成不必要的浪费和减少垃圾的产生。

还有一些小建议：走时要随手关总开关，以免电器过热爆炸，浪费钱又浪费电，要节约用水，刷牙时要关紧水龙头，洗菜水可以淘米，淘米水可以浇花，洗衣水可以拖地，如此就可以减少一些浪费了。不要随意捕杀野生动物，一二级保护动物是绝对不能杀的，但也别捕杀青蛙等常见动物，因为青蛙为我们吃掉1.5万的虫子，而且大部分是害虫。有些人经常不以为是，依旧我行我素，所以我们要尽量少吃野生动物，导致他们野生动物销售额下降，不再捕杀野生动物。

我们的森林被称之是氧气加工厂，所以要爱护花草植物，不要破坏城市绿化，还要积极参与。而且还要少砍伐树木，别浪费木质的物品，因为浪费了这些东西就等于毁灭了森林，所以要少用，来保护越来越少的森林。

用节能灯炮来代替普通灯泡，虽然有些贵但是可以相对的少用一些电的。我呼吁大家：用我们的日常行动来保护地球的环境，让我们的子子孙孙生活在一个美好的环境中!

Every man know elephants. But do you know now the elephants are becoming fewer and fewer. Its a serious problem. Let me tell you about the elephants.

Elephant are the biggest mammal on land. They can live up to 80 years.They are so cute.Their ivory is so pretty and expensive that many people kill them to get their ivory. So they can make much money by selling the ivory. Also,elephants are also losing their homes bacause people cut down lots of trees. There cause that there are only a few elephants in the world now.

What should we do to save and protect the elephants? In my opinion,we can often seveal and try to stop others cutting down trees around us.

And we mustnt buy the ivory,because no buying, no killing.

水是生命之源，我们要保护水资源，如果没有水，树木不能生长，花草不能开放，生命会停止呼吸，地球也会变成一个枯黄衰竭的星球，保护水资源作文。所以，我们要保护好这珍贵的生命之源。

以前，我一直不懂得好好珍惜水，常常浪费水，打开水龙头忘记关。可是一件小事后，让我懂得了要珍惜、保护水资源，小学生作文《保护水资源作文》。那是一天夏日的午后，我和小伙伴们在草地上做游戏，突然，我脑子里灵光一闪：我们可以玩水枪大战。想到这儿，我就和伙伴们各自回家去取水枪，我的水枪容量很大，而且水还没有灌满。我就开始往水枪里注水，水注好后，我忘记关水龙头，就跑出了家门，玩了一阵子后，正好我的妈妈回来了，妈妈看见了我家的水龙头没关后，就一把将我拽进了家门，语重心长地对我说：“水是生命之源，如今我国已被列入缺水国家，许多灾区的孩子们都喝不上水，我国如今只能靠风力和一些设置才能喝上水，可你却在这里浪费水源，这不是在破坏人类自身的生命之源吗？”听了妈妈的话，我惭愧地低下了头，我决定：以后决对不再浪费水，浪费自己的“生命之源”了。

人类啊，水是生命之源，但却不是取之不尽，用之不竭的，我们要好好保护它，不能浪费水，保护人类赖以生存的资源！

First of all, let me tell you a true event. That is my grandpa with me by boat from yichang to three gorges occurs when one thing.

We all got up that morning, the people on board, is preparing to play water to wash shu. But the faucet for half a day on the boat were down only a few drops of water, one asked, originally is the boat ran out of water! So, we only have stood in long lines, slowly, etc. Although I looked at the ship, the ship under a stream of water, but no one would like to use it. Because the water is so dirty, so HunHuang, who dare to use? Line only slowly, slowly, etc!

Although in the high-speed development of science and technology nowadays, but the impact on our environment. Reduced river pollution, air pollution, the trees, the increasing of the desert... All this is all thanks to the human! Countries while in value, although the world in value, environmental protection, what and how much these things figure up attention? In my opinion, is rare. Although countries in so to speak, but whats the use of words and not of deeds? Did just a few, too! Dont grab from main reason! You see, the Yellow River water is not still contaminated? So the factory does not still pollute the atmosphere? Should grasp, starts from the quality of people, quality grab, but the country and the world to do so? No! Just like to do even when you are done. In the polluted environment is not so?

Animals are extinct, flash floods in explosion, dust storms still exist... It fully shows the environmental pollution! Countries will only go to disaster relief, instead of simply grabbed, will only go to disaster relief, whats the use? Dont all kinds of disaster is still in? We should like lu xun. He had become a is in order to save the Chinese, and he found that it will not solve the fundamental, so he became a writer, to save the people of the spirit. Because this is the fundamental! So, we as the master of the 21st century, you should understand, what is the root of the damage to the environment, from the point to solve it. Work hard -- the 21st century we!

首先，我先给大家讲一个真实的事件。那是我随我的外公从宜昌坐船前往三峡时发生的一件事。

那天早晨，船上的人都起来了，正准备打水洗淑。可是船上的水龙头半天也只下来几滴水，一询问，原来是船上的水用完了!所以，大家只有排着长长的队伍，慢慢的等。我望着船下，船下虽然有着流不尽的江水，但却没有一个人愿意来使用它。因为江水太脏了，是那么的浑黄，又有谁敢去使用呢?只有慢慢的排队，慢慢的等!

如今科技虽然在高速发展，但这影响到了我们的环境。河流污染，大气污染，树木的减少，沙漠的增多……这一切的一切都是拜人类所赐!国家虽然在重视，世界虽然在重视，什么环境保护日，这些事又有多少人影起了注意呢?在我看来，是极少的。国家虽然在这么说，可是光说不做又有什么用呢?做了也只是少数罢了!根本没有从主要原因抓起!你看，黄河的水不是还在被污染吗?工厂不照样还在污染大气吗?抓，就应该从小抓起，从人们的素质，品质抓起，可是国家乃至世界这么做了吗?没有!即使做了也只是做样子罢了。环境不是照样还在被污染吗?

动物还在灭绝，山洪还在爆发，沙尘暴照样存在……这都充分说明了环境还在污染!国家只会去赈灾，而不去根本抓起，只会去赈灾，这又有什么用呢?各种灾难不还是照样在发生吗?我们应该像鲁迅一样。他当初从医是为了拯救中国人，而他发现，这解决不了根本，所以，他当了作家，去拯救人们的精神。因为这就是根本!所以，我们作为21世纪的小主人，就应该明白，什么是破坏环境的根本，从要点去解决它。努力吧――21世纪的我们!

I am a student from Xinhua Middle School in Chongqing，China. Informed that you have a vacancy for a student to serve as the spokesman for animals, I cannot resist my inner excitement,hoping to seize the opportunity to do something for animals .

我是来自重庆新华中学的一名学生。得知你们有一个空缺给学生充当动物发言人，我抑制不住内心的激动，想要抓住这次机会为动物做些什么。

In my mind，nothing can delight me so much as caring for animals. Wherever I go and whatever I do, I usually keep in mind that animals are angels from the heaven, which bring us endless comfort and pleasure. I have been a panda lover since my childhood. Panda is so lovely that brings fun to people and they are regarded as the treasure of our country. Unfortunately，such a rare species is now faced with the danger of being extinct。What I am eager to do is to raise people’s awareness of animal protection and appeal to more people to care for our earth companies.

我认为，没有什么能够像关心动物一样让我快乐。不管我去到哪里，在做些什么，我会时刻牢记动物是来自天堂的天使，带给我们无尽的舒适和快乐。我从小开始就是一名熊猫爱好者。熊猫是如此可爱，给人们带来乐趣，而且它们是我国的国宝。不幸的是，这种稀有物种现在正频临灭绝的危险。我想要做的是提高人们保护环境的意识，呼吁更多的人关心我们地球的伴侣。

It is my belief that all human beings can make a difference together. I would appreciate it if my application could get your approval.

我相信，所有人团结起来就会有很大的不同。如果我的申请能够得到大家的赞成，我将不胜感激。
