英语作文：保护濒危动物汇总20篇

今天下午，我校全体师生去观看了短剧《男子汉行动》。

下午一点，我们坐上了公交车，去电影院观看短剧。走在路上，我们一边观看窗外的景色，一边嬉笑着。窗外，时不时的吹来丝丝凉爽令人惬意的微风。春天已经来临，大地万物都孕育着新的生命：小草悄悄地探出了土壤，有些迟开的花儿争先恐后地竞相开放，柳树如羞涩的少女般抽出了枝条……啊!好一派醉人的春天景色!不知不觉之中，车已经来到了影视城，我们陆续地下了车，走进了影视城……

《男子汉行动》讲述的是一所学校的四名学生打算植树造林，保护环境，他们把这个行动称之为“男子汉行动”。但是，他们在路边遇到一个卖艺人，卖艺人利欲熏心，为了赚得更多的钱财，从森林里捕捉一只猴子，并残忍地“训练”和虐待它。这些“男子汉”看不过去卖艺人的这种偏激的行为，便改变了原来的计划，开始了他们新的计划——企图解救小猴子菲菲，把送回自己的家——大森林。为了实现这一目标，他们经历了偷钥匙、找钥匙、装扮猴子、解救猴子等一系列周折，最后凭借着不懈努力与团结互助的团队精神战胜了困难，取得了圆满的结局。

这部影片给予我们的启迪很多，仔细回忆影片的内容，也很发人深省：一个和谐的自然环境是由人类、动物、植物联手搭建的，可以说这三者都缺一不可，所以我们必须要像保护自己一样来保护它们。近些年来，由于人类的滥杀和自然的破坏，有许多动物已经灭绝了，虽然有一些动物还没有灭绝，但其数量已是屈指可数，所以珍爱它们的生命，保护生态已成为摆在人类面前的难题。如果人们不再保护植物，那么若干年后，我们也许就看不见这美丽的春景了;如果人们不再保护动物，最后灭亡的将是我们人类自己……

同学们，让我们去唤醒人类的善良本质，珍爱生命，保护动物;让我们努力学习，用我们的智慧去促进人与自然的和谐发展。

蝴蝶、狐狸……这些小动物尽管十分弱小，可是它们却有着让人不得不佩服的“自我保护大绝招”。

一说到狐狸，人们立刻会想到”狡猾”这一词。没错，狐狸是非常狡猾的动物，一旦发现猎人，它便会悄悄地跟在猎人后面，等猎人布置好了陷阱，狐狸就在陷阱旁边留下一种特殊的气味。当然，我们无法闻到这一气味，只能用特殊的科学仪器才可以检测出来。只要另一只狐狸闻到了这种气味，就绕过机关。所以猎人们总是很奇怪：狐狸怎么这么难捉呢?

蝴蝶尽管没有狐狸那样的机智，可是它一旦遇到敌害，就立即使出它的第一招——“隐身术”，飞入花丛中去，并使翅膀像花一样平展开来，使敌害分不清哪一个是花儿，哪一个是蝴蝶。如果被敌害辨认出来，蝴蝶便使出第二招：飞到敌害的眼旁，撒出一种粉末，使敌害睁不开眼睛，趁机逃之天天。

陆地上的动物都有自我保护妙招，海底生物当然不能落后了!大家来看看它们的神通吧：

刺纯生活在地中海，全身长满了刺，平时贴在身上，一旦遇到危险，便立刻大口喝海水，使身体膨胀成球形，针刺向外竖起，静候敌犯。

海底的鼠鱼一旦遇到了天敌，肠子立即产生一种气体，肚子急剧膨胀，使体积增大好几倍，如同一只充满氢气的气球，迅速浮上海面，逃出敌手。

隐鱼自我保护的方式很妙，时常躲进海参肚子里，从肛门进去，从口中出来，有时海参遇到侵害，经常会丢下下半截，隐鱼就在劫难逃。大家不用为海参担心，因为这也是海参的自我保护方法之一，再过几天，海参就会长出新的下半截。

One Sunday afternoon, I casually adjust the TV channel. All of a sudden, disastrous scene into my line of sight: a peasant who was holding a piece of iron hammer, turned out to be a butcher is a not how big head of pig slaughter.

I saw all this. Found that pigs fate was so miserable! Is this fate arranged? Or pigs caused by past delicious lazy? I found the "people" are so cruel. Oneself have so long pig, cruel to kill it. Ah, I found that at the moment I was so sad, so sad, so lost, so helpless. In nature there are many more miserable than this things are happening, perhaps this is fate, it is inevitable in the growing of a test.

Not often say that animals are friends of human beings? Not often say that people for the ethical treatment of animals, protect the earth? Maybe this is just for those rare animals! Those animals that almost nearly perish! Pigs in a country of the world, one city, a town, a village, or even a home, a person can see. Pigs are a lot of, is not worth to treat? Pig also is to have life, and human beings, it also know pain, also have feelings, also know how sad. People for the ethical treatment of animals! The animals as their friends, for they give a little love!

Animals are friends of human beings, like humans, are the people of the earth. Let us hands reach out, to protect, to help those who need help human friends!

一个周日的下午，我漫不经心地调着电视频道。突然，惨不忍睹的一幕进入我的视线：一个农民模样的人正拿着一根铁棍敲打什么，原来是一群屠夫正在屠杀一头不怎么大的小猪。

我亲眼目睹了这一切。发现猪的命运竟是这么悲惨!难道这是命运安排好的吗?还是猪前世的好吃懒惰造成的?我发现“人”竟是那么狠心。自己养了这么长时间的猪，竟然狠心杀掉它。哎，我发现此刻自己竟是那么的伤心，那么的悲痛，那么的迷惘，那么的无奈。大自然中还有很多比这更悲惨的事情正在发生，或许这就是命运，这就是在成长中不可避免的一次考试。

不是常说动物是人类的朋友吗?不是常说善待动物，保护地球的吗?可能这只是针对那些稀有的动物罢了!那些几乎将近灭亡的动物罢了!猪在世界的某个国家，某个城市，某个城镇，某个村庄，甚至某家某户都可以见到。猪是很多，多到不值得善待?猪也是有生命的，和人类一样，它也知道痛，也有感情，也懂得伤心。善待动物吧!把动物当成自己朋友，对它们付出一点爱吧!

动物是人类的朋友，同人类一样，都是地球的子民。让我们伸出双手，去保护，去帮助那些需要帮助的人类的朋友吧!

In the stream next to the road, there is a trash, in the trash next to, there are a lot of garbage: rotten apples, dead mice, Coke cans ... ...

Roadside, people coming and going, bustling, withering. They are talking and laughing, some people eat snacks, the garbage to the direction of the trash to throw; some people through here, smell the stench, clutching his nose hurriedly left; there are people Mamalielie, his face exposed Hated look. But no one is going to clean up the rubbish.

That day, Hasty and Showtime chest wearing a bright red scarf went to school. In the moment after the trash, they stopped, looked at the show, Showtime, said: "Hasty, we clean up the garbage!" Xinxin bent down, rolled up the sleeves, picked up the garbage into the Trash, they are not too dirty, even dead rats, dead cockroaches have not let go.

After the garbage, the winter and winter from the bag out of the pen and paper, touched the back of the head, waved "brush" to write: "civilization - only one step!" And then paste the slogan to the trash Warned passers-by.

I have heard such a story -

In a Korean home, there is a handy paper was blown away by the wind. He chased him all fifteen minutes on the street and threw it into the trash. The reason is not because of their own to bring pollution to the earth.

The earth gives the essence of the material, and in the end, it is from the people that the rebate is rubbish.

Treat the earth is to treat yourself. Save the earth is to save the future. So we want to start from today, from their own to protect our Mother Earth.

Protect the environment by everyone!

在川流不息的马路旁边，有一个垃圾桶，在这个垃圾桶的旁边，有很多垃圾：烂苹果、死老鼠、可乐罐......

路边，人来人往，熙熙攘攘，擦肩接踵。他们有说有笑，有的人吃完了零食，把垃圾往垃圾桶的方向丢去;有的人经过这里，闻到恶臭，捂着鼻子匆匆离去;还有的人一边骂骂咧咧，脸上露出了讨厌的神情。但是就是没有人去清理垃圾。

那天，冬冬和欣欣胸前戴着鲜艳的红领巾上学去了。在经过这垃圾桶的瞬间，他们停下了脚步，看着看着，欣欣说：“冬冬，我们把垃圾清理干净吧!”欣欣弯下腰，卷起衣袖，把捡起了垃圾放进垃圾桶，它们不嫌脏，连死老鼠，死蟑螂也没有放过。

收拾后垃圾后，冬冬从书包里拿出纸笔，摸了摸后脑勺，挥笔“刷刷”地写到：“文明——只差一步!”然后把这标语贴到垃圾桶上，以告诫路人。

我也听过这样一个故事：

在一个韩国人的家里，有一张可要可无的稿纸被风吹飞了。他整整在街上追了十五分钟才追到，然后把它扔进垃圾桶里。原因是不想因为自己给大地带来污染。

大地给予所有人是物质的精华，而最后，它从人们那里得到的回赠都是垃圾。

善待地球就是善待自己。拯救地球就是拯救未来。所以我们要从今天做起，从自己做起，保护我们的大地母亲。

保护环境靠大家!

[如何保护环境作文英语

To Whom It May Concern,

I am writing to express my opinion about the current policy on the official holidays, such as Spring Festival and Golden Week Holiday. As you might know, some believe it is a good idea to enjoy a week-long break. For one thing, it provides enough time for people to refresh their minds and thus to have better preparations for their future work. For another, it will lead to increased tourism and in turn stimulate the development of the local economy.

Truly, the past decade has witnessed many advantages of the official holidays, but we should never ignore its disadvantages. On the one hand, it may lead to heavy traffic in that a large number of tourists go on traveling during the same Period, thus, it might cause air pollution. On the other hand, some tourists, with no awareness of environmental protection, often drop litter at random so that the scenic spots are polluted and thus it demands a tremendous sum of money to eliminate the pollution.

Considering the current grim situation, it is necessary that the authorities concerned should take immediate measures to eliminate these disadvantages. Only through these efforts can we relieve the traffic pressure and at the same time raise people’s awareness of environmental protection.

Yours sincerely,

Li Ming

动物是人类的好朋友，我们应该爱护它们、保护他们，可有些人却把它们当成了玩具和盘中餐……

先说玩具吧，许多小朋友，甚至一些大人，每次买了宠物，像小猫、小狗、金鱼……养在家里，把他们像玩具一样捉弄、戏弄，我想说：动物也是一条生命!它们也是有尊严的!还有，养小动物如果一时疏忽，有时会把他们弄生病，甚至死亡!

再说盘中餐吧，许多大人喜欢吃野生动物，像青蛙、蛇……这样，使得许多动物都灭绝了!而且对人体也有很大的危害!据说2003年“非典”就是因为这样引起的!我诚恳的告诫大家：“请大家不要再吃野生动物了!”

还有，许多人特别爱吃青蛙，所以有许多人为了赚钱，残忍的杀害了青蛙拉到菜市场去买……请问那些杀害青蛙的人，你们在杀害青蛙的同时，有没有想过，青蛙是人类的好朋友，他们能帮农民伯伯捉害虫、保护庄稼呢?

动物是人类的朋友，请大家保护动物吧!保护动物，人人有责!

世界上有很多昆虫都对人类有益，所以小动物是我们的朋友，我们应该爱护它们。而且有很多小动物是我们平常经常见到的，和我们的生活密切相关呢!

比如说：蜜蜂，它很勤劳，每天很早就出去采蜜，一次又一次。到了天黑，还马不停蹄地对采来的蜜进行加工。蜜蜂的外形并不起眼，生命也很短暂，只有3个月左右;可它一生都不休息，勤勤恳恳地工作，它们对人类毫无所求，却为人们酿造了甘甜可口、营养丰富、可医治病痛的蜂蜜。

还有青蛙，青蛙披着碧绿的衣裳，两只大眼睛，像两颗晶莹透明的玻璃球，它藏在田里，专吃害虫，保护庄稼。它捉害虫的时候两条后腿一蹬，一纵身，能跳起老高，长长的舌头一伸，就像吸尘器一样转眼就把害虫吃到肚子里去了。可是，我们人类却把它们当成美味佳肴摆在餐桌上。

还有许多可爱的动物，我最喜欢的是大熊猫。大熊猫是我国珍贵的动物，妈妈告诉我大熊猫还是我们国家的国宝呢!大熊猫长的很可爱，胖乎乎、圆滚滚的，走起路来一摇一晃的，特别逗人。它的头部和身体都是白色的，只有眼圈、耳朵和肩部是黑色的。特别是那一对黑黑的眼圈，长在白白的脸上，像是戴着一副墨镜，加上那笨拙的动作和走起路来东张西望的神情，显得像个小绅士。

你瞧!它们多么可爱，它们是我们人类的好朋友，我们怎么忍心伤害它们呢!

Now, people dont speak hygiene, make the earth became very clean.

Factory waste water into the river discharge, discharge waste water will not think about it, if people drink the water, what will happen?

Also, people cut down trees, on the lawn, people will think of these things, without the trees, how do we have the fresh air and oxygen, no grass we how green home! Besides, if sandstorm comes, without the trees blocking, what will become of our home.

Why are both street trash can, this is to remind people not to throw rubbish everywhere, put the rubbish in the garbage can. But, a lot of people love throwing garbage everywhere, this kind of behavior not only damage the image of our home, what also polluted the earth again.

I want to tell everyone: "protecting the environment is to love life!" To protect the environment, we should start from the side, starts from me, to build our homes more beautiful!

现在，人们都不讲卫生，使地球变得很不干净。

工厂里的废水向河里排，排废水的人会不会想想，如果人类喝了那些水，会怎么样?

还有，人们砍伐树木，踏入草坪，做过这些事的人会不会想想，没有了树木我们怎么有新鲜的空气和氧气，没有了小草我们怎么绿化家园啊!再说，如果沙尘暴来了，没有了树木的阻挡，我们的家园会变成什么样。

为什么街道旁都有垃圾桶，这是提醒人们不要随地乱扔垃圾，把手中的垃圾扔进垃圾桶里。但是，很多人都爱随地扔垃圾，这种行为不仅损坏我们家园的形象，还让地球再一次的被污染。

我想告诉大家：“保护环境就是爱护生命啊!”要想保护环境，就要从身边做起，从我做起，把我们家园建设得更加美丽吧!

One day after school, I carry bag cheerfully ran to the door.

Havent that take the door, can smell a stinking smell, turned out to be someone throw rubbish in the beside a little tree, I hurriedly will cover your nose, really want to breath ran to the third floor, left the flashpoint. But when I saw the red scarf before the bosom, it seemed to be in severe criticism I. I quickly ran home, the bag would not have time, picked up the broom and CuoJi to ran downstairs.

Ill use a broom and wielding a few times, this style was scared away a lot of flies, little fly, destroy the rubbish is much more relaxed, I put the rubbish swept into all CuoJi, in the trash.

I thought that has been accomplished, but, a few of wrappers are stuck on the ground, the part that the dense "" seems to be said to me:" ha ha, see what you can put me?" Had, water a blunt again and not line, I immediately end the basin of water, it worked, all dry I stamped out quietly, and finally restored the former days the ground clean.

Although the work of the accident was too tired to my waist sour backache, but think I for the earth environmental protection out of a force, let me very happy, as long as we care for the environment, the world will become more beautiful!

一天放学，我背着书包高高兴兴地向家门口跑去。

还没进门，就闻到一股臭气熏天的怪味，原来是有人把垃圾丢在了一颗小树旁，我赶紧将鼻子捂住，真想一口气跑到了三楼，离开了这个是非之地。可当我看到胸前的红领巾时，它仿佛在严厉的批评我。我急忙跑回家，书包也来不及放，拿起扫帚和撮箕向楼下跑去。

我先用扫帚使劲地挥舞几下，这招式果然吓走了不少苍蝇，少了苍蝇的捣蛋，消灭这些垃圾就轻松多了，我把垃圾全扫进撮箕里，倒入垃圾桶。

我以为已经大功告成了，可没想到，几张糖纸还粘在地上，这些“顽顾份子”似乎在对我说：“哈哈，看你能把我怎么办?”有了，用水一冲再扫不就行啦，我立马端了盆水，这招果然奏效，一下子全都被我消灭的干干静静，地面终于又恢复了往日的洁净。

虽然这次意外的劳动累得我腰酸背痛，但是想着我为地球环保出了一份力，让我十分高兴，只要我们大家爱护环境，世界一定会变得更加的美好!

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. as the balance of nature was destroyed and the weather was getting warmer and warmer, pandas became less.

but at present, the number of pandas is increasing year by year. there are now so many pandas that some are being sent to other countries so that people there can enjoy them.

nowadays, the biggest nature park for panda in china is in sichuan. there is a research centre for nature and wild life there. scientists hope that one day they will have enough pandas to be set free and let them live in the wild again.

There is no doubting the great benefits which scientific advances have brought us 。 Yet we have become increasingly aware that some technologies’ developing brings unexpected and harmful side effects 。

A number of factories spring up like mushrooms ，exhausting much waste gas ， which leads to the greenhouse effect and air pollutions 。 Plentiful trees are cut down that causes the lands to change into the deserts 。 At the same time ， varieties of species are gradually extincting 。 These phenomenons give us clear warnings of the dangers of failing to live harmony with nature 。

We ought to set up a profound mind to protect our environment 。 For the governments ，they should make detail laws and policies to observe the behaviors of destroying the environment 。 Factories should exhaust polluted water or gas after dealing with rather than merely pursue the economic interests 。 Planting as more as possible trees ， in case of the water and soil erosion 。 For farmers ， they must reduce spraying the insecticides 。 We also must make less use of plastic materials and one—off products 。 In addition ， we wouldn’t throw the rubbish anywhere 。 Thus ， we at least can maintain our environment in a good state 。 However ， that’s not enough 。 We are supposed to work harder to protect our environment 。

Many animals are in danger of dying out.As is shown in the chart， we can see the number of animal species decreases faster and faster and this trend will continue.From 1980 to 2010， at least 1 million animal species have disappeared.Worse still， more and more wild animals are in great danger.It is not a piece of sensational news; it is a fact， a harsh reality.Unfortunately， we may not see these animals in the near future。

From the second picture， we can find some reasons.Why is the number of animal species declining year by year? Apparently animals have bee victims of fashion industry.Animal skin has been used to make fashionable clothes and these clothes sell at a high price.So some greedy people begin to kill animals in a large quantity.This irresponsible behavior not only breaks the balance of nature but also endangers the living environment of human beings。

As far as I am concerned， something must be done to stop this illegal action.We believe "no buying， no killing".First， we must make concerning laws to protect these animals in danger.Second， we must take some measures to protect animals effectively.Animals are our friends and part of our environment.Third， we should raise peoples awareness to protect animals and our environment.In this way， we can build a harmonious society and ensure a sustainable development。

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?

[保护鲨鱼的英语作文

Many wild animals are facing the danger of extinction， because the environment that they are living in has changed greatly。 For example， with the developmet of cities， the using of insecticide and serious pollution， their living areas have become narrowcr and narrower。 Many of the wild animals， now are confronted with food crisis。 At the same time， man is killing off species just for getting their fur， skin， horns， teeth and meat。

In order to protect our resources of ecology， people should realize that the loss of any species is at least the loss of source of knowledge and a source of natural beauty。 There fore， measures of the following should be taken： pollution standards are made to keepdown poisons; killing off certain rare species is prohibited; national parks should be set up as wild life， reserves。

Only if we human beings take some drastic measures can wild animals be preserved。

今天下午，我打开电脑上了qq，在qq空间里看见了“惊天地泣鬼神”的一幕。

一些人准备取小熊的胆汁，这时，一只母熊挣脱了铁笼，用巨大的熊掌掐死了小熊，然后把头撞上墙壁，死了。也许这是它们最好它们的办法，因为它们解脱了。

看完这一则故事，我快哭了。这么可爱的小熊，这么伟大的母熊，是谁狠心夺走了它们的生命?是人类。口口声声说保护大熊猫的是谁?也是人类。这不是自相矛盾吗?大熊猫是我国的国宝，可一些熊猫看见人类就想逃。这是为什么?因为有人伤害熊猫。

熊猫是多么可爱啊!他们也有生命，它们不是致富的工具。我们一定要保护熊猫，一些熊猫已找到，还有一些熊猫还在受那无尽的痛苦折磨。我们要将心比心，假如自己是它们，受到这种痛苦会怎么样?

在这里，我呼吁大家：爱护动物，让动物不再惧怕我们，让这个世界变得真正和平吧!

同时我也奉劝那些伤害熊猫的人：熊猫也有生命，熊猫也有感情。它们的价值并不是让我们赚钱，而是为自己而活。希望你们能到此收手!

[保护野生动物的小学生作文

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.

The global polar bear population could decline by more than 30 percent in as little as 35 years. Thats according to a new study in The Royal Societys Biology Letters.

全球北极熊数量在35年内可能下降超过百分之30。这是根据英国皇家学会生物学快报的一项新研究。

Researchers looked at climate change effect on the Arctic Sea and calculated the likelihood of this projected population drop is 71 percent.

研究人员观察气候变化对北极海的影响，并计算出预计种群下降的可能性为百分之71。

Thats because polar bears stand on Arctic Sea ice when hunting for seals. According to NASA, even the thickest ice in the Arctic Ocean has "either thinned or melted away."

这是因为北极熊捕猎海豹时站在北极海的冰上。美国国家航空航天局表示，甚至北冰洋最厚的冰要么变薄或要么融化了。

And just this week, scientists reported sea ice levels in the area were at a record low for this time of year.

就在本周科学家报告称，该地区的海冰水平创下一年中这个时候的历史新低。

This all adds up to not great news for polar bears. With an estimated population of 26,000, the bears are already listed as a vulnerable species by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

这对北极熊不是什么好的消息。现估计有26,000头北极熊，已被国际自然保护联合会列为易危物种。

a country maid was walking along with a can of milk upon her head,when she fell into the following train of reflections."the money for which i shall sell this milk will enable me to increase my stock of eggs to three hundred,these eggs,allowing for what may prove addle,and what may be destroyed by vermin,will produce at least two hundred and fifty chickens.the chickens will be fit to carry to market just at the time when poultry is always dear;so that by the new year i cannot fail of having money enough to purchase a new gown.green-let me consider-yes,green becomes my complexion best .and green it shall be, in this dress i will go to the fair,where all young fellows will strive to have me for a parter;but no-i shall refuse every one of them,and with a disdainful toss turn from them."

transported with this idea,she could not forbear acting with her head the thought that passed in her mind,when down came the can of milk!and all her imaginary happiness vanished in a moment.

In the second half of last year, we started the "triple town" campaign and should start from me. Now the streets are littered with litter, spitting and scribbling. The dustmen tore up the rubbish ads, the people secretly taped up, and the people scrawled on the walls with paint, called the "psoriasis" of the street. These dirty and messy phenomena and to be governed.

The three orders of the state have led to the prevention and reduction of pollution and pollution, and the protection of air and environment. Now there are more and more cars, and the emissions are getting worse and worse. There are factories, sewage, pollution and water quality that directly harm crops and live life.
