A Present For Mother’s Birthday

Everyone should give his mother a present when his mother’s birthday is coming. It is 25th May Sunday. Today is Han Mei’s mother’s birthday. So she wanted to give her mother a special present. What present should she give? Maybe a bunch of flowers a birthday card are the best presents. A card is cheaper. But it is bad for trees. The more I buy cards, the more trees will be cut by people. So what another present should she give? Let me tell you this present.

It was five o’clock. It was time to surprise her mother. When Han Mei’s mother came home, Han Mei said Happy Birthday to her mother. Then she cleaned her mother’s feet. As you can see, her mother was very surprise.

Why do you think it was a good present?

As peoples living standard is higher and higher, people pay more and more attention to the food problem, is the so-called: "the food to Ann first." The food is indispensable in our life, is also what we most closely contact, so food safety becomes our life can not be ignored in safety. Take the things around me.

Our school gate, there are a number of vendors. Business is booming every day. Vendors some ice cream, and some also sell some pigment water... The delicious food in broad daylight, there seems to be a hand is extended in those little available to the school, but who knows whether the food is unqualified, is it safe?

In fact, a large number of outside food health situation is not ideal, there are many widespread substandard health food. Experts pointed out that these problems and no relevant guarantee food, great effects on the health of primary and middle school students. Although school everyday in said food safety problems, the students are still not care.

Ive heard of one thing: one day, a classmate after school, feel very hungry, although the teacher talked about or buy junk food today. But he is not on the heart, with fifty cents to buy ice cream. When buy, he was a good ideological struggle, finally, stomach protested in "cuckoo" sound, he bought ice cream. His side to the gourmet taste with relish, and marched to the home. Unfortunately things finally happened. The very next day, he have loose bowels, not only themselves, parents also worry! This is not obedient disorderly buy snacks.

随着人们的生活水平越来越高，大家也越来越关注食品的这个问提，正所谓：“民以食为天，食以安为先。”这食物可是我们生活中必不可少的东西，也是我们接触最密切的东西，所以食品安全就成了我们生活中不可忽视的安全问题。就拿我身边的事情说吧。

我们学校门外，有不少的小摊小贩。每天生意总是兴隆。小贩们有的冰激凌，有的还卖有色素的水......那些光天化日下香喷喷的食物，似乎有一只手在向学校里那些小馋嘴伸去，可谁又知道这些食物是否合格，是否安全呢?

其实，大量校外食品都是卫生状况不理想，还有许多食物普遍存在卫生不达标的问题。有专家指出，这些存在问题且无相关保障食品，势必对中小学生身体健康造成很大影响。虽然学校天天都在说食品安全问题，可同学们仍毫不在乎。

我听说过一件事：有一天，一位同学放学后，感到很饿，虽老师今天讲过要不买垃圾食品。可他不放在心上，用五角钱买了冰激凌。在买时，他做了很大的思想斗争，最后，肚子在“咕咕”地叫声中提出了抗议，他买了冰激凌。他边津津有味地品尝着手中的美食，边大步流星地向家走去。可不幸的事最终还是发生了。就在第二天，他就拉肚子，不光自己难受，家长也担忧啊!这就是不听话乱买零食的下场。

.It was the first day of our summer holiday.All of us were very happy.Why?Because we have one month to do things we love to do.We are free.Although we have some homework.But we can finish them in several days.And the rest time we can make good use of.We have been very tired after hard studying.I will have a good rest.

那是我们暑假的第一天,我们每个人都非常高兴,为什么呢?因为我们拥有一个月的时间来做我们想做的事情,我们自由了.尽管我们有一些作业,但我们可以在几天之内完成它们,并且我们可以充分利用剩余的时间,我们在艰苦的学习之后感到非常累,我会好好休息一下的.

The Spring Festival, every family, bursting with happiness decorated, our family is no exception.

On the thirty day of the year, I came to grandmas home with my mom and dad. Morning, the street is always a "crash" huge crowds of people, and the "bite" sound. I asked my sister strangely, "what are these people doing, sister?" My sister smiled, but did not speak, so I put all his strength into the crowd, there is a pair of men are dragon dance. The dragons aunt and uncle are dressed in white clothes and red pants, they catch the dragon, the Dragon stretching from Voldemort swinging, gongs and drums accompanied by the sound of the dragon. They are praying for peace for people through every street and lane. At this time, we followed the team to the river. They were around the big boat by the river, praying for prosperity. The end of the dragon, we listened to the distant sound of gongs and drums, gazed at the dim figure.

In the evening, our family sat on a stool, eating a reunion meal. After dinner, we stood on the balcony upstairs and looked at the downstairs fireworks. The first one is the flower basket. The flower basket is made up of six circular holes. The flower basket first sprayed sparks, then suddenly flew up to the sky and burst into many colorful sparks. So it sprayed six times. It seemed to be blessing for people. Sister feel good, could not wait to pick up the Butterfly King, the elder sister quickly ignited in their hands, "flutter" sound of fireworks, to a light butterfly, dancing in the sky, the last "bang", divided into many a spark in the sky slowly and gently. Float to the ground. I took a bowl, hold in the hand, "bang", "bang", ten guns, resounded through the night sky symbolizes our joy and happiness.

The sky was getting dark. Our family went to the room to watch the Spring Festival Gala, say and laugh, how happy the Spring Festival is!

广大群众们：

常言说得好：保护环境，人人有责。”现在人们生活水平提高了，但是，人们却因为此浪费资源。据统计，全国50%江河水流量减少，受污染;1/3土地面临沙漠化;80个国家严重缺水;我国大面积森林被砍伐……在我们日常生活中，水龙头不停地流出清澈的自来水，用水的人却不知去向;开着点灯、电视，房间里长时间空无一人;笔记本被随手扔进垃圾桶却只用了几页……你是否想过，自然资源是有限的，这些看似生活中的小事，却会给人类带来严重的后果。为此，我想向大家提出以下几点建议：

一、尽量少用塑料袋，习惯用菜篮。不用一次性筷子、手套。

二、节约用水。我们可以把每次洗完米的米水拿去浇花或洗菜;每次洗完衣服的水可以拿去冲厕所。不要开了水龙头就忘记关，要意识到“不要让水龙头孤独地流泪”。

三、不乱砍伐树木。乱砍伐树木是我们浪费资源的第一大杀手，许多人为了自己的利益却不顾后果地乱砍伐树木，我们要意识到森林是鸟类、动物的家园。

四、保护资源。不浪费电、爱护草地。

五、组织植树活动，让大家一起来植树造林。

广大群众们，团结起来力量大，让我们行动起来，为了我们家园的美好明天，尽自己的一份力量吧!

Winter vacation one day, my mother came home from work. Just rushed into the door shout: "month, guess mother bring to you?" "It must be delicious." I answer without thinking. "No." Mother said, and took out a small box handed me from behind. I took the box curiously, cant wait to open a look, turned out to be a lively and clever bird. I took it, carefully looked at carefully.

This should be a just flying bird, corners of the mouth of the yellow is not faded. A taupe feather plump neat, small round eyes black light, looked around in horror.

Accidentally, the birds escape from my hand, toward the window, want to fly out? That a head hit the window and fell on the windowsill, but it still unwilling, stare blankly with wings to fly. I cant help but poor bird, I think, the bird should live in the bosom of nature, free to fly. So I said to mother: "mom, lets put the bird! See mom and dad, birds worry more afraid of ah." Mother looked at me with indecision, then use appreciation tone, said: "my son is grown up. Birds have given you, you have the final say." I thanked my mother happily, holding the bird ran downstairs.

Downstairs to the ground, I gently loosen the hands and the little bird "ceng" to fly to the sky, fly away quickly. I seem to see the bird to fly back to the flock, nestled in the father and the mother bird bird side, telling the story of todays experience, has a good boy...

寒假的一天，妈妈下班回家。一进门就兴冲冲地喊：“月月，猜妈妈给你带来什么?”“肯定是好吃的。”我不假思索地回答。“不对。”说着，妈妈从背后拿出一个小盒子递给我。我好奇地接过盒子，迫不及待地打开一看，原来是一只活泼机灵的小鸟。我小心翼翼地捧起它，仔细端详着。

这应该是一只刚刚会飞的小鸟，嘴角的嫩黄还未褪去。一身灰褐色的羽毛丰满整洁，一双圆溜溜的小眼睛乌黑光亮，惊恐地四下张望。

一不小心，小鸟从我手里挣脱开来，朝着窗户飞去，想要飞出去吧?没想到一头撞到窗玻璃，落在窗台上，可它仍然不甘心似的，扑楞着翅膀想要飞起来。我不禁可怜起小鸟来，我想，小鸟应该生活在大自然的怀抱里，自由自在地飞翔。于是，我对妈妈说：“妈妈，咱们把小鸟放了吧!看不到爸爸妈妈，小鸟多着急害怕呀。”妈妈惊疑地看着我，然后用欣赏的口吻说：“我的儿子长大了。小鸟已经给你了，你说了算。”我高兴地谢过妈妈，捧着小鸟飞快地跑下楼去。

来到楼下的空地上，我轻轻地松开双手，小鸟“噌”地飞向天空，很快地飞远了。我仿佛看见小鸟飞回了鸟群，依偎在鸟爸爸和鸟妈妈的身边，诉说着今天的经历，故事里有一位善良的少年……

I am a student in Huaxing Middle School. Do you know the plastic bags? Do you often use the plastic bags? I don’t like them. I think they use the wasting valuable oil their production. And they can’t decompose(分解) in a short time. The plastic bags will make our world worse. I agree with the rule, which people can’t get the free plastic bags in the shops, supermarkets. It encourages people to use their cloth bags and baskets. It’s good for our environment.

So I hope all the students in our class stop to use the plastic bags, and use our own cloth bags. I hope we can take care of our environment.

Let’s make our world more and more beautiful.

It was a fine day today and the sun was bright.I visited Beijing Zoo with my classmate， He Song.The animals were so interesting that all the people loved them.When a bear asked for some food by waving its ann， a visitor threw something to it.At once I went up to him and said without thinking，Dont do that.Its bad for it.If you really love them， take good care of them。 His face turned red and answered he wouldnt do that again。

My hometown is a beautiful small village, my father said that the original home of hanging about the village, is full of trees behind the house, lush and green all the year round, there is a small river east village, the water crystal clear, fish, the sky was crystal clear.

The few families lived in the village, the life is comfortable, but I dont know since when, the environment began to deteriorate. Say we river first, she was now the sewage river, there is a paper mill in the waste water into the river, the river with a layer of white foam, stinking, former aquatic plants and the fish disappeared, flowers reflection of the river was gone. Dad said the river but he was a child often play place, now people here to hurry past, wu hold its mouth. The river when you are sad all the day.

The earth is our home, a good environment is the premise of our happy life. In order to our survival homeland to sweet and comfortable, I put forward three Suggestions:

The industrial wastewater emissions dont, best can recycle after unified handling.

Second life garbage recycling, in order to reuse. Called on people to care for the environment, and in some poor hygiene area eye-catching warning label.

Three to supervision and control of air pollution, especially for those emissions exceed the chimney rectification within a time limit.

Around us there are many people environmental protection consciousness, I hope more people join the ranks of environmental protection, let the home environment is becoming more and more good.

我的老家是一个美丽的小村庄,听爸爸说，原来的老家村前村后、房前屋后到处都是树，一年四季郁郁葱葱，村东头有条小河，河水清澈晶莹，鱼翔浅底，天空湛蓝深远。

村里住着百十户人家，日子过得都还舒适，可是不知从什么时候开始，环境开始恶化了。先来说说我们的小河，她现在简直成了污水河了，岸边有家造纸厂在往河里排放废水，河面上泛着一层白白的泡沫，臭气熏天，昔日的水草和鱼儿不见了，鲜花倒影的河面不见了。爸爸说河边可是他小时候经常玩耍的地方，现在过往这里的人行色匆匆、捂嘴掩鼻。小河终日愁眉不展。

地球是我们的家园，美好的环境更是我们开心生活的前提。为了我们生存的家园能够温馨舒适，我提出三条建议：

一工业污水不要随意排放，最好能够统一处理后循环使用。

二生活垃圾要分类回收，以便再利用。号召人们爱护环境，并在一些卫生状况较差的区域贴上醒目的警示标志。

三对空气污染进行监督和治理，尤其是要对那些排量超标的烟囱限期整改。

在我们身边还有许多人环保意识淡薄，真希望有更多人加入到环保行列当中，让家乡的环境变得越来越好。

“有一双明亮的眼睛，包含着慈母般的深情，一闪一闪，在我的心田上播种;一闪一闪，播下知识，播下忠诚，啊，老师的眼睛……”我喜欢唱这首歌，忘不了它，更忘不了老师的那双眼睛。

老师的眼睛，那是怎样的眼睛哟，它每时每刻都盯在同学们的身上。我从这双眼睛里，懂得了很多很多……

老师的眼睛，是一双亲切的慈母般的眼睛。当我刚刚迈进学校的大门，开始一种新生活的时候，我是那样的不适应。这时候，我看到了一双眼睛，老师那充满热情的眼睛。那双眼睛，多么象妈妈的眼睛，它激励我向前迈开了第一步，把我从无知中唤醒。

老师的眼睛，是一双温和的眼睛。当我为了腾出时间去看电影，而抄袭了同学的作业时，老师的眼睛里闪现严厉的目光。然而，当我低下头，流出忏悔、惭愧的泪时，老师却又深情地为我拭干了泪。我抬起头，望着老师的眼睛，老师那温和的眼睛分明在告诉我：“知错，改了就好。”

老师的眼睛，是一双充满信任的眼睛。有一次，为了解出一道思考题，我坐在桌边苦苦地思索着。我整整地做了一个小时，结果题还是没有做出来.我开始泄气了，并为自己开脱起来：反正不是老师叫做的，明天上课，老师还会给讲的。心里这么想着，便烦躁地把书扔到了一边，打算到外面去玩一会儿。我垂头丧气，失去信心的时候，老师好象看透了我的心思，向我投来了信任、鼓励的目光。于是，我增添了勇气、信心，重新坐下来做，困难迎刃而解。啊，老师的目光似一把万能的钥匙，打开了我紧锁的脑门儿。自此以后，每当我遇到困难，丧失信心，垂头丧气的时候，我就象看见了老师那信任的目光，就象听见了老师在对我说：“耐心，能够战胜一切。”

老师的眼睛，是一双期待的眼睛。在课堂上，当提出问题，引导同学们思考的时候，老师总是用期待的目光，看着每一个同学紧锁的眉头。我看得出，老师多么希望同学们齐刷刷地举起手。我想将手举起来，但我看看周围一个个静静地坐着思考的同学，我胆怯了。这时，又是老师的目光激励了我。我消除了一切顾虑，将手毫不犹豫地高高举起。我看见老师欣慰地笑了，笑得那么甜蜜。

老师的眼睛，是一双怎样的眼睛哟，我从这双深邃的眼睛里，懂得了很多很多……

Me Hello，everybody!My name`s Kevin Bill。I am a 15-year-old boy and I am from China。My favorite movie are Rush Hour and Mr。Bean。Do you know them?I think they are exciting action movie and interesting comedy 。My English teacher is a beautiful teacher and she`s always friendly to us。Her favorite sport is basketball and we always play basketball together。My favorite music is pop and my favorite fruits are apples and grapes。And Sunday is my favorite day。How about you ?What`s your name?

亲爱的人类：

不知何时，原先透明水晶般的河水悄悄换上了那如黑夜般的外套，再见不到那动人的脸庞，只在那记忆的长河中寻觅，依稀可见那曾经晶莹的背影，可却无论如何也看不清那脸庞

时光飞逝，科技之轮飞快转动，可为什么对于好多好多的事物、生命来说，却是无尽的灾难？

在人类的眼中，科技无限膨大，资源可以无限的拥有，绝不枯竭。走在大桥上，手中的食品包装袋、塑料袋、矿泉水瓶甚至是不想吃了的食物，都被送进了河水的怀抱

不久，河水的衣着变了，喷上了一种叫臭的香水。河边的大树也累了，垂下了腰，曾经酷酷的一头绿发，又被染上了一丝枯黄，幻化成一只只优雅动人的小蝴蝶，轻轻飞舞。

伴着科技的发展，今日的人们一味的追求发展，而忽视了保护环境，保护水资源的重要性，愚昧的认为资源可以无限再生。再听不见河水撕心裂肺的大声呼救：

别再摧残我的躯体，救命！

如今的人类可否想过：如果失去水

如果人类失去了水，花草树木由什么灌溉？口渴的人类用什么解渴？如果人类失去水，苏轼的千古佳句水光潋滟晴方好是否要成为如今人类的的一个梦呢？是否要成为一个不可能实现的空想

当我们面对身着如黑夜般的外套的河水时，您还会歌颂它的美丽，感叹它的生机吗？面对摆在眼前的事实，难道还不足以给人们敲响水之患的警钟，敲醒人们的觉悟吗？

俗话说：失去了，才懂得珍惜！人类啊！不要让世界上的最后一滴水，成为人类的眼泪。

让我们珍惜、保护水资源，为我们的生命和未来，也为了报答河水对我们人类的恩泽！

初一:安倾颜

What a colorful world of the fall,this is a credit to the leaves,they have

red and green,the autumn dress up like a large garden.

Red maple leaves,like palms,just five piece children.Leaves a small number

of prominent teeth,the base of the heart-shaped,dark green to dark green above

to below the axillary vein has hair sense,the edge is also trimmed with lace

irregular.Bark grayish brown,with the old growth,the surface grooves and

scales.Maple leaves,autumn brings a festive and warm.

Holly tree is the symbol of vitality,crown thriving,flourish.Leaves

oval,pointed at both ends,like the two tilt of the boat.Stem and leaf surface

veins is very clear,long from bottom to top,from coarse to fine.The front of

dark green leaves,very smooth,negative light green,because there are many

prominent veins and coarse stems.Holly leaves have wavy lines on the edge of the

same jagged,but not scratchy.

The campus,red maple,holly green,a passionate,full of vitality,this is

really the mental outlook of our young pioneers it!I love autumn,I love the fall

on campus.

Henry is a little fatter than he wants to be. He is a bit worried. He

decides to lose weight. He eats only a little food for breakfast and supper, and

has some fruit. He doesn’t eat much sugar because he thinks it makes him

fatter.

Besides having only a little food, he keeps doing exercises every day. He

swims very often and runs every day. Some time later, he becomes stronger.

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。

Recently, the news reported that one special kind of rhino from Africa just

passed away, which meant the disappearance of this lovely creature. What a great

pity. The tragedy is caused by the damaged environment, while human being must

be blamed for it, because we have done so many bad things to pollute the

environment and make the nature lose its balance. In order to make up our faults

and save our offspring, it is in need of protecting the environment. As the

ordinary people, we can do the small things, such as do not throw away the

rubbish and join some activities to bring the world green, like planting trees.

Every small act can make a difference. Some day, when we live with the

environment friendly, what we do is worth.

Animals are our humans good friends, we cant hurt them, but some people are for your own sake, regardless of the poor little animals life and to trample them, kill them.

Remember that is one day this summer, I chat with grandma sitting on one side of the road, I saw a cat wanted to cross the street opposite of a piece of meat to eat, who knows, the cat just walked to the middle of the road, a large truck, the driver while riding on the horn, mouth scold a way: "dead cat to go away." Kitten also dont understand the meaning of the driver, the driver has been impatient, he put the pedal to a a small life is so dead in the wheel of a large truck full of cargo. I watched this scene was angry and sad, in order to commemorate the poor kitten, so I want to have this day - July 2, set up to protect the animals.

To this day each year, people all want to contribute to protect animals, to let the small animals spend the day with a light heart, cant let them hurt, small animal no matter by who, they are hospitable, finally, we need to use different ways to promote small animals to human help. Let every man in the world to protect small animals.

Im looking forward to this holiday was born at an early date.

动物是我们人类的好朋友，我们不能伤害它们，但有些人却为了自已的利益，不顾那些可怜的小动物的生命，去践踏它们，捕杀它们。

记得那是今年暑假的一天，我和姥姥在公路的一边坐着聊天，我看见一只小猫想穿过马路去吃对面的一块肉，谁知，小猫刚走到马路中间，一辆大卡车过来了，司机先生一边按喇叭，一边嘴里骂道：“死猫走开。”小猫还没理解了司机的意思，司机先生已不耐烦了，他一踩油门，一个小生命就这样死在了满载货物的大卡车的车轮下。我看着这一幕又气愤又伤心，为了纪念这只可怜的小猫，所以我想把这一天——7月2日设立为保护动物节。

到了每年的这一天，人们都要为保护动物做贡献，要让小动物轻松愉快地度过这一天，不能让它们受到伤害，小动物不管到了谁家，人们都要热情招待它们，最后，我们还要用各种不同的方式去宣传小动物对人类的帮助。让世界上的每一个人都要保护小动物。

我盼望这个节日早日诞生。

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?

[提倡保护环境的英语作文

Recently, it has been reported that a boy argued with his father and then

he left home and the policed found him, taking him home after half a month. It

sounds so ridiculous for the boy to leave home for such a long time, but

thinking further, the lack of communication between the father and the son makes

this joke. There always some people wonder why we need to get higher education,

because we may not earn money as much as the workers. In my opinion, the purpose

of education is not for the money, but for the better person we will become. If

the father knows how to communicate with his son and his son is considerate,

then things wouldn’t become so bad. We need receive education and become the

wise person, so we can communicate better and create a harmonious

environment.
