Let’s Do Something to Save Our Environment

It is recently reported that some rivers and lakes have dried up in South China。 A lot of fishes died。 The bottoms of the rivers and lakes have become grass land。 The water is becoming less and less because of the bad weather。

So everyone should do something to save our environment。 First， we should save every drop of water， such as turning off the taps after using it and recycling the water。 For example， we can water the plants and clean the rest room with our used water。 Second， we should save energy， such as less turning on the lights and turning off the lights when we leave;Do more walking， more bicycling and less driving and so on。 Third， we should ask our government to control the pollution from the factories。

Let’s act now from everything to save our environment。 Don’t let our tears be the last drop of water in the world!

Environment is a basic human existence conditions, if we destroy the environment, it is ruined our survival conditions.

At present, the ecological environment is becoming more and more bad, is the greatest influence on our water resources. According to the relevant information reported: the laying of drainage system and detergent used to grow, consume the oxygen in the water, fish died, deterioration of ecosystem. Human activities can make a lot of industrial and agricultural pollutants into the water, the water is polluted. The world each year about 4200 sewage into the river, polluting the 5. 5 trillion of fresh water.

This is how the startling fact, protect the environment is everyone duty, why want to destroy?

Lies a small river near my grandmas home, on the bottom, before my sister and brother in ones childhood often swimming in the river, and their friends to play in the water, uncles and aunts are often in the river to wash clothes, wash dishes, and now, near the river built a chemical plant, the production of waste water discharge into the river, originally the bottom stream gradually turned into a black sending out the smell of the river. The adults never go to the river to wash clothes to wash the dishes, friends never go to the river to play, too!

How I miss the crystal-clear stream! I think: cherish resources, good care environment, these are GongZaiDangDai, force and art event! If we are in such polluted water, that we can use water resources will be less and less, we destroy the environment, is destroying our living conditions.

Let us join hands to jointly protect the environment, dont let water into water, protect the environment, is our common responsibility!

环境是一个人类生存最基本的条件，如果我们破坏了环境，这等于破坏了我们生存的条件。

目前，生态环境日益恶劣，对我们影响最大的就是水资源。据有关资料报道：排水系统的铺设和清洁剂的使用有增无减，消耗水中的氧，使鱼类死亡，生态系统恶化。人类的活动会使大量的工业、农业污染物排入水中，使水受到污染。全世界每年约有4200多亿的污水排入河中，污染了5。5万亿的淡水。

这是多么让人触目惊心的事实啊，保护环境是人人有责的，为什么要破坏呢?

我外婆家附近有一条小河，以前清澈见底，我的姐姐、哥哥小时候常常在小河里游泳，和他们的小伙伴们在水中嬉戏，叔叔、阿姨们也常常在这小河中洗衣服、洗菜，而如今，小河旁建造了一个化工厂，把生产的废水排放到河里，原本那清澈见底的小河渐渐变成了黑黑的散发着怪味的小河。大人们再也不去小河洗衣服洗菜了，小伙伴们也再也不去河里嬉戏!

我多么怀念那条清澈见底的小河啊!我想：珍惜资源，爱护环境，这些都是功在当代、力及千秋的大事啊!如果我们在这样污染水，那我们可以用的水资源就会越来越少，我们破坏环境，就是破坏我们生存的条件。

让我们携起手来，共同保护环境，不要让淡水变成污水，保护环境，是我们共同的责任!

Save the earth

How to protect theenvironment has become one of the biggest problems in the world .

It’s our duty toprotect our environment .No matter where we live ,we should do something tokeep our neighborhood clean and tidy .We can collect waste paper or otherwaste things for recycling.We should plant more trees and we should preventthose factories from pouring waste water into rivers,lakes and fields.We shouldn’t leave rubbish everywhere andspit in public places .We mustn’t pick the flowers or step on the grass inpublic.If everyone tries his best to protect the environment ,the world willbecome much more beautiful and our life will be better and better .

As is known to all, waste on campus has become a more and more serious problem. We can easily see many students dump a lot of food in the garbage can. Some students spend thousands of yuan buying fashionable clothes and so on.

The negative effects of waste can be shown in the following aspects. In the first place, it makes some students dependent on their parents for money, which is harmful to their development.

If they don’t learn to support themselves, they will be “useless people” when they graduate. In the second place, it is not easy for our parents to arrange for our schooling. Last but not the least important, there is no denying the fact that our country is still poor. There are many people who cannot go to university and many poor people still need our help.

As far as I am concerned, I should set a good example to reduce waste on campus. First of all, I will refrain from wasting anything, from food to stationery. What’s more, I’m determined to call on more schoolmates to fight against waste. Only through these measures can we hope to reduce waste on campus.

亲爱的同学们：

你们好!

每当我听到关于资源流失的信息，我的心里就感到无比羞愧。为什么?因为这跟我们每个人的行为都是有关系的。

曾经的地球很美，绿树成荫，雨水滔滔不绝，空气异常清新。现在，科技发达了，做什么东西的工厂都有。排出来的废气越来越多，排出来的污水弄脏了小河，清新空气变成了有一阵酸味的空气。现代化的人都认为，有了房子，以后就不怕了。因此便砍光树木制造空地，用来起房子。城市里一幢幢高楼大厦，别看表面很美，其实这里的空气差极了。没有树木，什么都不可能完美!

世界上最大的沙漠是撒哈拉大沙漠。这是人人知晓的。但这对我们来说并不是一种荣耀，这是一个错误的见证!我们需要树木来做材料，但不能没有制度啊!地球无私的给我们提供资源，但它并不是叫我们去破坏它啊!

水是无价之宝，但人类却抱着一种“用完了，还有!”的心态去不断浪费水。事实上水并不是无限的，更何况水也分淡水和咸水，可以饮用的也只有淡水，而淡水在世界上仅有百分之三。

假如再这样下去，人类也将会灭绝!

世界上如果每个人节约一张纸，世界上将会多一片绿洲;如果每个人能节约一滴水，世界上将会多一座水库!

让我们从小事做起!1、节约用纸;2、关好水龙头;3、少使用一次性塑料杯，一次性塑料袋。

让我们的生活更加美好!

The campus is like the flowers, the fragrance of the intoxicating, the smell of love. The schoolyard is like rain dew, nourish us, cultivate us; The campus is like a dream, that kind of beautiful, that kind of sweet. I love this garden campus.

"Beautify campus, green campus". Our campus has become green and beautiful. Flowers, small trees, patches of grass, flowerbeds, our campus is full of life and fresh.

"The air is fresh, clean and tidy environment, buildings, surrounded by green trees", who dont want to in such a clean, sanitary, healthy growth of the beautiful campus learning? But for various reasons, our campus environment is being undermined by the bad behavior of some students. Nowadays, in our beautiful campus, there are some uncivilized phenomena, some students randomly throw in the peel of paper, plastic bottles, melon seed shells and so on. Whenever naughty wind these waste, running here and there, tinkling like a child, helpless, we can only watch them on campus "dance", and even some classmates in the scribble on the white wall and the desk carved, and disorderly spit phlegm, and so on. All this, cannot match with our beautiful campus. See these phenomena, how would you feel? Does studying here make everyone happy?

In order to let us have the beautiful campus of green trees, clean environment and grass, please act quickly! Use your own hands to protect the beauty of the campus environment. Through radio, blackboard, speech competition, knowledge competition, the development theme class meeting, publicity of the importance of protecting our campus environment, the necessity, form "real small is my home, beautiful depends on everybody" good atmosphere; Start everyone from yourself and start with the little things around you. As the saying goes, "do not be small but do not be evil." Get into the habit of not littering, spitting, not scribbling, trampling on the lawn, moving, bending, and so on. Dear students, Let us join hands and work together to create a beautiful and tidy learning environment for ourselves. Isnt that bad?

I am convinced that the campus is beautiful, friendly, is a place where we learn to grow, we love the campus, love every inch of the campus, lets work together to protect the environment of the campus!

环境是我们人类生存最基本的条件，如果我们破坏了环境，这等于破坏了我们生存的条件。目前，生态环境日益恶劣，水、空气等资源都不同程度的受到了污染。

在我们日常生活中，一条条清澈的小溪被污染，变成了臭气熏天的水沟;一株株美丽的花草树木被污染，变得黑乎乎的即将凋谢;一棵棵高大的大树在一阵隆隆的机器声中倒下``````这些残酷的画面，就是人类可恶的“杰作”!现在，人类破坏环境越来越严重.就说海滨长廊旁的大海吧，那里原来的水湛蓝湛蓝的，平静得像一面镜子，蓝得像一块宝石.但由于这几年人们乱丢垃圾，以至于现在的大海变成了灰蒙蒙的.还有龙湖沟，每当路过龙湖沟，行人们总要捂着鼻子走过，沟子里的水黑乎乎的，沟边还有许多生活垃圾，沟面上死鱼的白肚子随处可见，影响我们的市容，破坏了环境卫生.虽然龙湖沟正在施工，清理污水，但是如果人们还不重视这些环境的保护，就算龙湖沟美化施工多少次也是无济于事的.而且，破坏环境对我们危害极大，它会带来一系列的灾难，沙尘暴，大雨，山洪，海啸``````

其实，保护环境并不难做到：只要拒绝使用朔料带等一次性物品，减少白色垃圾的产生;不乱丢生活垃圾，按相关要求分类存放;不要向水中抛洒污染物;节约用电、水、煤等资源，减少工业废气的排放。如果人人都能这样做，那么我们生活的环境将有很大的改善。

我为周围环境的恶化而感到心痛，我想：作为未来接班人的青少年，保护环境，人人有责，我们如果不了解人类环境的构成和环境污染问题的严重性，无视有关环境保护的法律法规，不去增强环境保护意识，自觉履行保护环境的义务的话，我们的生命将毁在自己的手中，老天将对我们作出严厉的惩罚。为此我下定决心要从我做起爱护环境，保护我们这个赖以生存的家园，做一个保护环境的卫士。

让我们携起手来，为蓝天白云、绿水青山、清新空气、优美环境而努力奋斗吧!

[研英语作文环境保护类词汇

Environmental protection is everyones responsibility, we all know! But now the environment is not optimistic, such as: someone spit on the ground, someone littering, still pulling weeds, folding flowers. These are nothing, because some people, not only protect the environment, but also damage the environment. Because of the existence of this kind of person, so only in the sharp deterioration in environment, so we should protect the environment, more to damage the environment should be discouraged. In this way, the tree will be much, grass and flowers also lush, natural, such as dust storms disaster would not have happened!

Today, I let you see how should protect the environment. Some people might say, put a few piece of propaganda to protect the environment in the city brand is not good, in fact, this idea is wrong. Someone may say: this is not a propaganda to protect the environment? Of course not, because there are two reasons: 1, some people may watch brand every day, so I wont join the team to protect the environment. Will likely continue to destroy the environment and bad habits. 2, is the man looking at, but he didnt want to join the ranks to or dont want to protect the environment. From these two points can illustrate just a few propaganda brand is useless. Which someone may be eagerly asked: what! Method is very simple, as long as their faith to protect the environment, the people around will follow suit yourself!

The first step to protect the environment: learn how to protect the environment. Requirements: oneself to voluntarily protect the environment, not even in your environment, so that you even pipe request wont be able to reach others. To protect the environment the second step: advice others to protect the environment. Requirements: if see people littering or spitting, etc., should be up to dissuade immediately. Of course also want tube that yourself! To protect the environment the third step: make a collective to protect the environment. Requirement: let the dozens of people and as a collective, and protect the environment. If you do this at 3 o clock, then you are an "environmental small guards"!

This is my idea of protecting the environment. I now are trying to protect the environment, and you?

保护环境是大家的职责，大家都知道吧!但是现在的环境状况却不容乐观，比如：有人在地上吐痰，有人乱扔垃圾，还有人拔草、折花。这些都不算什么，因为还有些人，不仅不保护环境，而且还破坏环境。因为有这种人的存在，所以环境才在急剧恶化，因此我们要多加保护环境，对破坏环境的人应该劝阻。这样，树就会多了，草和花也茂盛了，自然，沙尘暴之类的灾难就不会发生了!

今天，我就让大家来看看应该怎样保护环境。有些人可能会说：在城市里放几块宣传保护环境的牌子不就好了吗，其实，这种想法是错误的。有人可能会说了：这不是在宣传保护环境吗?当然不是，因为这里有两点原因：1，有一些人有可能每天都不看牌子，所以就不会加入到保护环境的队伍中去。习惯差的，还有可能继续破坏环境。2，那个人看是看了，但他不想加入到这个行列中去或是根本就不想保护环境。从这两点可以说明光是几块宣传的牌子是没用的。哪有人可能会急切地问道：那该怎么办!办法很简单，只要自己要保护环境的信心，自己身边的人也会跟着做的!

保护环境第一步：自己学会保护环境。要求：自己要自觉地保护环境，不能连自己都在破坏环境，这样你就连管别人的要求都达不到了。保护环境第二步：劝告别人保护环境。要求：如果见别人乱扔垃圾或吐痰等，应该立即上去劝阻。当然自己也要管得知自己哟!保护环境第三步：让一个集体保护环境。要求：让几十个人并成一个集体，并保护环境。如果你这三点都做到了，那你就是一个“保护环境小卫士”了!

这就是我保护环境的观点。我现在也在努力保护环境，你呢?

随着生活水平的提高，人们注重了物质生活质量，却忽视了身边的环境质量。如今，我们的世界资源匮乏，处处存在着被污染的空气、水土、食品…..大家都在担心自己吃的、喝的是否健康?因此，我想对于这个问题提出几点倡议：

1.节约用水。水是生命的源泉，我们要节约用水。大家都知道非洲是一个缺水大国，除蒙罗利亚地区会频繁降雨，其余地区降水量非常少，非洲人民常年遭受着旱灾带来的磨难。因此，需要我们合理利用水资源，节约用水，把“生命之水“留给更多需要的人。

2.少砍少伐。树木可以净化空气、调节气候、防风降噪，是人类最好的保健卫士。假如这个世界上没有树木，后果会怎样我们将无法想象。少了一棵树，我们便多了分危险：沙尘暴、水土流失的肆意破坏都来自于没有树木的抵御。

3.拒绝血腥。很多动物已经濒临灭绝，但人类为了谋取利益，还是伤害了它们：用鳄鱼皮制成了各种包包、各种鞋子，行李箱……海洋中的蓝鲸现存只有数十只，珍贵的猎鹰也因濒临灭绝被列为国家一级保护动物，甚至有地区一年捕杀10万只百灵鸟……人类和动物本来就是好朋友，紧密相连的，为什么还要残害这些无辜的生命?

为了更好的保护我们自己的家园，我们要携起手共同努力。“前人栽树，后人乘凉”，为了给下代留下一片绿荫，让我们一同张开手，出一份力，共同保护地球环境吧!

Do you know? Time unknowingly. Have you found? Our home into a another look: the bottom of the river became a filth, dirty dust filled the air, everywhere... This is what caused the so huge change? Turned out to be a human that bad habit destroyed the ecological environment, no one has the courage to stand up to stop. Have people unaware of the danger is quietly coming?

News often report news of casualties, such as someone because drink beverages containing chemicals and poisoning, and people were containing sand blown blind eyes... Ah! Absolutely horrible! If everyone around you endlessly environmental pollution, destruction of their homes, so, I really cant imagine that ten years, twenty years, thirty years later... Our home what happens earth-shaking changes, our descendants will blame us, what makes you denied the right to our survival!

Yeah! We dont have the privilege to damage the environment, to destroy their homes. We should not only cherish own life, more want to future generations the survival of the society in harmony with nature, for the sake of nature.

Boys and girls, lets see some action! Protect the environment, care for the home! Everyone to get rid of bad habits, start from around things, such as: dont throw away waste batteries, use water and electricity saving, try to walk or ride a bike... I believe, as long as we carefully action, and will lose everything back to nature, will be our fault compensation back. Let the future home is not painful, but the eternal beautiful young!

你们知道吗?时间不知不觉地流逝着。你们发现了吗?我们的家园变成了另一副模样：清澈见底的小河变成了污泥浊水，肮脏的灰尘充斥着空气，无处不在……这是什么原因造成了这样如此巨大的变化呢?原来是人类那不良的恶习破坏了生态环境，更没有人有勇气挺身而出去阻止。难道人们没有意识到危急时刻正悄悄来临了吗?

新闻常常报道伤亡的消息，比如有人因为喝了含有化学品的饮料而中毒，还有人被含有沙粒的风吹瞎了眼睛……啊!简直惨不忍睹啊!如果身边的每一个人都无休止地污染环境，破坏家园，那么，我真的不敢想象：十年，二十年，三十年后……我们的家园会发生怎样翻天覆地的变化，我们的子孙后代会不会责怪我们——你们凭什么剥夺了我们生存的权利!

是啊!我们没有这个特权去破坏环境，去毁灭家园。我们不仅应该爱惜自己的生命，更要为了子孙后代的生存学会与大自然和谐相处，多多为大自然着想。

同学们，赶快行动起来吧!保护环境，爱护家园!人人改掉恶习，从身边的小事做起，比如：不随便丢弃废电池，节约用水电，尽量步行或骑自行车……我相信，只要我们认真地行动起来，就一定会把大自然失去的一切都找回来，就一定会把我们的过错补偿回来。让未来的家园不是痛苦，而是永恒的美丽年轻!

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?

我常常听奶奶说，以前家乡的景色优美极了。天空湛蓝深远，空气清新甜润，河水清澈见底，人们生活得无忧无虑。现在，这样的情景只有在梦里才能看见了。

随着社会的进步，科学技术不断提高，家乡开始建起了一些木材加工厂和其它的工厂。人们开始乱砍树木，空气不在清新了，天空也不湛蓝了，好像有一层大雾似的。山上的树木越来越少，光秃秃的像一把把扫帚。若是刮起一阵狂风的话，一定会飞尘白土的，那些塑料袋好像是风的一个个玩具，风吹到哪边，塑料袋就飞嘲哪边。要是你不小心的话，沙子就会跑到你的眼睛里玩耍。

说到水问题可就更多了，为什么我们现在的小溪里没有小鱼?沟里没有了小草?为什么河水不在清澈?这都是工厂惹的祸。因为工厂排出的污水流到了小溪中使溪水变得混浊，不再清澈，然而污水是有毒的液体，鱼儿吃了也被毒死了。没有鱼儿的陪伴，小溪是孤单的。

我们国家是一个拥有13亿人口的大国，如果每个人都能明白这样的一个道理“破坏森林，是不折不扣的自杀行为”的话，我们的生活的家园一定会变得更加美丽。所以我们要呼吁大家一起来保护环境，保卫我们共同的家园!

从前有个地球，地球的生命已经快没了，人类还开着汽车。

有一个叫王明的小朋友，他很懂事，老是想着帮助别人。他觉得开汽车不好，就骑自行车，他用了好大的劲才骑到广场上，广场旁边的车子都开来开去，他发现有一辆汽车撞到了一个小朋友，小朋友非常疼，他说“叔叔你为什么要开车？骑自行车刹车快不是也很好吗？”那个叔叔说“骑自行车费劲，如果骑自行车我都要累死了。”王明说“为什么不要锻炼身体？不锻炼，身体就不灵活了。”那个叔叔觉得王明说得有道理，他就不开车了。

后来，慢慢发展下去，汽车越来越少了，车子的尾气也少了。现在自行车发展到有自动的，而且也不冒烟，也不用加油，踩一下可以开一个半小时，后来，世界各地都这样了。我说的这个故事是让大家少开车，多走路或者骑自行车。我们一起来保护环境、保护地球、保护我们的家园。

Animals are our friends.But how to protect them? government is working to protect all animals in danger,and has made lots of plans to save animals. On the other hand, we shouldn’t eat wild animals.We should keep them away from our dinner. That way,there will not be wild animals on sale. I think the hunters and killers will become fewer and fewer.

Last, we should protect the environment.We should stop people from cutting trees down. Without trees, wild animals will lose their home. And we will lose our animal friends. All of us should try our best to protect animals.

We need to protect animals better.We should give them fresh water to drink.We should make the forests bigger for animals in danger to live in.We should advice people not to kill animals beacause they are our friends!

环境问题已成为了二十一世纪必要解决的问题，也是当今最头疼的问题。

二次世界大战之后，社会生产力突飞猛进。工业大发展在带给人们财富的同时，也造成了严重的环境污染。大量废弃物的排出、人工合成有毒化合物的扩散等等。无数水土丰美的地方变成了不毛之地，无数原本富饶的土地日益贫瘠……于是，人们逐渐意识到了保护环境的重要性。如今，世界各国都在为保护环境做着大量的工作。

我给大家举几个小例子。我国的木兰溪在50年代初本是一个清澈见底的河流，但现在它却是鱼虾绝迹的污河。1952年12月5日，英国首都伦敦发生了令人震惊的“迷雾事件”，约有1xx人因这次事件而丧生。这次事件的罪魁祸首是“硫酸雾”，它是由漂浮在空气中的二氧化硫、水雾和粉尘共同作用的结果。硫酸雾中所含有的大量有毒成分和粉尘被人吸入肺中后会沉积下来，进入血液，流遍全身，这才造成了如此严重的后果。

由此我郑重向仍未觉悟的人们建议：

1、植树造林可以保护环境但并不是任意植树就可以起到这个作用。要想保护当地环境，必须要选择当地适合的树种。同时各种树种交替使用避免栽种单一并且要保留足够的空间，以助于其他级别的植物繁殖生长。此外还要增加植被的多样性。这样才容易形成像天然林的生态系统，才能保护环境。

2、湿地号称是“地球的肾”，它是一种特殊的生态系统，它为人类提供多种资源，也是多种水生物的栖息地，不仅如此，它同时具有很重要的环境功能，可以净化污染物，抵御洪水，调节气候，美化环境。它同森林、海洋一起被人类称为“全球三大生态系统”。

3必须合理开发水资源，避免水资源破坏。长期以来，大多数人们普遍认为水是取之不尽，用之不竭的“聚宝盆”。其实，地球上的水资源并不是取之不尽的尤其是我国的人均水资源并不丰富，地区分布也不均匀，而且年内变化莫测，年际差别很大，再加上污染严重，造成水源更加紧缺的状况。所以说，人们一定要建立起水资源危机意识，把节约水资源作为我们自觉的行为准则，采取多种形式进行水资源警示教育。

如果没有了自然资源，地球上将会有几百个物种灭绝，洪水肆虐、沙漠扩大，地球上的生物，包括人类自身都将遭受灾难性的打击。所以我们要保护我们赖以生存的家园——地球。

自从人类生活在地球上时，人类就开始依赖大自然给予的恩赐，但是时间久之，人们也忘记节约与爱护。无知，贪婪的人们开始肆无忌惮的破坏生态环境。

水是生命之源！如果没有了水，人类将无法生存。我们要留心生活中那些浪费水资源的事情，要尽可能的节约用水。要知道一滴水是多么的重要。当你在浪费水时，有些缺水地区的人们正忍受焦渴，甚至有人被渴死。当你拥有水时你丝毫不珍惜，可当你没有水时你会怎样？

我们不仅要爱护水，还要保护环境，到了现代人们开始大量开发资源与能源。人们疯狂的开发资源时，不知不觉中伤害了地球母亲，我们把地球母亲弄得伤痕琳琳，却浑然不知。

虽然这些资源给我们带来了很多好处，但我们不能太贪心。因为这些资源是很难再生的，比如煤矿，它们是古代植物遗体堆积在湖泊、海湾、浅海等地方，经过很多年的复杂的转化才形成的一种具有可燃性的沉积岩。还有汽油……，它们都是很难再生的。我们如果再不节约使用能源，资源总有一天会开发光的。

如果人们将所有的资源都开采完了，或是资源都枯竭了。我们应该怎么办？我们会怎么样？

为了我们的地球，请我们应尽可能的节约有限的资源。

让我们行动起来——为了地球的明天，为了我们的明天！

地球，被人们称为人类美丽而又慈祥的“母亲”。这个比喻，我觉得特别亲切。“它像一个晶莹的球体，上面相互交错着蓝色和白色的纹痕，周围裹着一层薄薄的水蓝色“纱衣”。当我从《只有一个地球》这篇课文中读到这句话时，我更确定了地球的美丽壮观!而且它赋予了人类生命，为人类提供了生活所需的自然资源，所以它更像是人类的母亲，一位慈祥的母亲。

但是，在茫茫宇宙中，我们的地球母亲是那样的渺小，它只是个半径只有六千三百多千米的的星球。它所拥有的自然资源也是有限的，这些矿物资源也是经过了几百万年，甚至几亿年的地质变化才形成的。而人类就像是一个贪婪的孩子，肆无忌惮地开采资源和破坏我们赖以生存的环境，长此下去，资源没有了再生功能，那么我们拿什么生存?你也许会认为，我们可以迁移到另外的星球上去生活。你错了，科学家已经证实，没有另外任何一个星球适合我们人类居住。想到这里，我感到忧心忡忡!

一直以来，我们总以“地大物博”自居，可是，我们地是大，物真得博了吗?当人类对森林乱砍滥伐的时候，有没有想过我们的绿色正渐渐褪去;当人类滥用化学品排放污气、污水的时候，有没有想过我们的蓝色正被灰黑色的颗粒渐渐吞噬，清澈的溪水也变得混浊不堪，小鱼小虾们也没了去向。当人类破坏这些生态资源的时候，肯定不会想到自己的生命也在遭到威胁，各种各样的病症都出现了。

自私的人类真得该醒醒了，如果我们现在开始补救，应该还来得及拯救我们的地球母亲。我们要大力植树造林、严格控制工厂排污现象、保护我们的母亲河。

从我做起，从现在做起，让我们一起来保护生活的大家园，还母亲一片蓝天白云。

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.

今天是个风和日丽的好天，我和同学贺松去了北京动物园。动物们是那么可爱，大家都非常喜欢它们。一只熊挥动着胳膊向人们要吃的，一个游客就投进去了什么东西。我想都没想就走过去说：“不要那样做。你的做法对它们没好处。如果真的喜欢它们，就应该爱护它们。”他的脸红了，并且回答说他不会再那么做了。
