My high school life, nothing exciting - from flat to start, but also in the flat end. Can not call it exciting, but it can not be pleased to lament the difficult, but it can not be portrayed as odd. But "dull" is not possible to rub out the highlights of my life, but it will show a more bright, brilliant ... ... 我的高一生活平平淡淡——是从平淡中开始，又是在平淡中落幕。既不能称之为精彩，又不能欣然去感叹它的艰难，更不能将它描写得那样曲折离奇。但“平淡”是不可能抹杀掉我生活中的亮点的，反而会将它呈现得更加明亮，辉煌……

Long and short years, I learned the most important thing, not a textbook knowledge of those endless, but people learned how to do - to get along with everyone in the days, I learned a technique called "unity" thing, it allows us to hear the voice of 54 hearts beat together; short life in boarding school a few months, I learned to "inclusive", which is a blend of our strength; in ride out the storm with friends when I know the "concern", a pair of "It better to give than to receive." The best interpretation of ... Yes, I learned a lot of things like that, they are impossible to find in the textbook knowledge, they can not be called a capability. They are the people, heart to heart between the alternating collision, can really feel the same things, maybe you can in an instant perception of their true meaning, but maybe you really can not fathom the life out of the mystery ... ...

Perhaps this is my high school life, perhaps it will make you feel very empty, but it really is I want to sway the hearts of all, but I am very clumsy, but seemingly meaningful words can not make you feel I feel nothing at this moment ... ... 漫长而又短暂的岁月里，我学到的最为重要的东西，并不是课本上那些层出不穷的知识，而是学到了应该怎样去做人——在与大家一起相处日子里，我学会了一种叫做“团结”的东西，它能让我们听到 54颗心一起跳动的声音;在住校几个月的短暂生活里，我学会了“包容”，这是一种将我们融为一体的力量;在与好友共度的难关之时，我懂得了“关心”，一个对“ It’ better to give than to receive.”的最好诠释……是的，我学到了很多诸如此类的东西，它们都是在课本中所无从寻觅的知识，它们也不能被称作是一种能力。它们是在人与人，心与心之间，交替碰撞的时候，才能真正所感受到的东西，也许在瞬间你就可以感悟它们的真谛，但也许你真的就一辈子也无法参透出其中的玄机…… 也许这就是我的高一生活，也许它会让您觉得很空洞，但这确实是我内心深处所想要挥洒出的一切，只不过我那些看似隽永却笨拙无比的文字无法让您感受到我此时此刻的心情罢了……

My hometown is beautiful place It stands near a wide river at the foot of low green hills. It has many tall buildings and wide streets. There are trees and flowers everywhere.

But it has not always been like that. In the old days, it was a sad dirty little town. Landlords and merchants lived in the few good houses. For the working people there were only dark, unhealthy rooms in old buildings and huts in narrow muddy streets. Nearly everyone was poor and many had no work.

Everything has changed since liberation. The people, led by the Party, have got rid of the mud and dirt. They have put up schools, theaters, shops and flats. They have an assembly hall and a hospital. Along the river they have built offices, hotels and parks. A lot of factories have sprung up. On the river, streamers and boats come and go busily, day and night. They carry the products of our industries to all parts of the country.

I love my hometown, and I love its people. They also have changed. Healthy and happy, they are going all out to build socialism.

I like teamwork because I can learn from others. Once, I was very shy and

did not know how to get along with other students, so everytime when the teacher

gave us the task and asked us to finish in the teamwork, I was very scared. Then

my classmates helped me, they gave me a lot opinion and they respected me,

making me the indispensable person. Then I became brave and gave my opinion, we

were in a group, every opinion meant so much. During these days, I was so

excited about the experiment, we shared our idea and talked happily. It was such

a happy moment, I liked cooperation.

Each year, people burn or cut down 143,000 square kilometers (55,000 square

miles) of the forest. People who burn or cut down trees do it for different

reasons: farmers cut down trees in order to get more fertilize lands to grow

rice or vegetables, and use the woods as fuel. Timber companies cut down trees

and turn them into furniture or paper productions. As to goal miners, they

remove the forests to find out whether there are goal underground.

However, many of us fail to realize that forests are the lungs of the

earth. When we cut down trees, we also push ourselves in to a dangerous

situation. That is the global warming. When you come to think about it, there

are only few ways to solve these negative effects: stop cutting down trees

blindly; try to find some clear energy that can replace oil and coal. But these

solutions can be impractical to some degreed.

Why trees can be so important to the whole nature? First of all, trees are

the habitat of many animals. When we cut down trees, we not only destroy

animals’ habitats but also ourselves. We just gradually destroy natural links.

The result is that many spices of animals and plants are dying out. Secondly,

cutting down trees cause global warming, to some degree. Naturalists compare

forest to human’s lungs. The forests absorb the carbon dioxide and other gas

that cause global warming, and then give off the oxygen that good for the human

beings and other living creatures. It’s refreshed the air as well as reduced the

noise. If the air quality is bad, people may die from cancers, or the new

diseases for which they have no immunity. Forests also play an important role in

the prevention of natural disasters. Warmer temperatures cause water to expand

and also create more water by melting polar ice caps. That’s to say, the nations

which near the ocean may have been flooded by the water. But the forests can

prevent water loss and soil erosion, and cool off the global temperatures. It’s

the key to keep the balance of the nature.

Sometimes people only care about money making; they don’t care about the

price we pay for the pollution. When the disaster is around the corner, we may

be afraid and frustrated. The earth, on which our economies have always been

based, is suddenly threatening our existence. All we hope that is this

overpopulated, over industrialized planet can carry on for a longer time. And

maybe, it’s time for us to realize that we should protect the earth, stop

cutting down trees blindly and madly.

My hobby is fishing. I am fond of going fishing, for it is both interesting and iastructive-It tempers my willpower. Last Sunday I went fishing with my friend, He Ping. We started at daybreak. After three hours cycling, we arrived at the outskirts of Hefei and came to a stream. The water is clear and clean. One can see fish swimming. The meadow sprinkled with buttercups slopes to the stream. It is a good place for fishing.

In a few minutes everything was ready. Putting the bait of earthworms on the hook, dropping the hue into the strum, we sat there fishing with rod in hand. An hour passed. I did not catch a single fish. I lifted the fishing rod time and again. Time and again I was disappointed. There was no fish on the hook. On the other side of the stream, He Ping had caught several fish, one of which was very big.

How comes it that you catch fish casily while it is so difficult for me? I asked.

it s easy. Only you need Io be patient. He Ping answered. Make sure that you lift the fishing rod when the whole flat has sunk. I m sure a fish will greet you on the hook.

After a while the floats were swinging. I kept my breath and waked. The floats became still again. Come on my hook, dear fish. I was saying to myself. In a moment the floats swang again and then sank abruptly, Just at that moment I lifted my fishing rod. To my delight I caught a fish. Grlnning, I took it off the hook.

When it comes to honesty, quite a lot of people believe it is essential to

a person’s character and success.

They base their idea on the following reasons: on one hand, successful

business owes much to mutual trust; on another hand, great people in history

such as Abraham Lincoln andGeorge Washington set us good examples of being

honest, they are great because they are honest.

Their reasons run as following: to begin with, cheating on exams is

becoming more and more popular; in addition, some singers and movie stars cheat

on taxes; last but not the least, if you are not careful enough, you’ll buy some

defective goods and fake products.

It is high time we emphasized and encouraged honesty. We can take effective

measures to restore it.

For example, kids should be taught to tell truth, strict rules and

regulations should be carried out to stop cheatings on exams and taxes, etc.

If I can fulfill the task of the day in the morning, afternoon, then, is my free time, want to do, he wants to do. Still can watch TV or a movie tonight!

? My winter vacation plan all right?

哈哈!期末考试终于结束了，卷子也领了，寒假就在我美妙的想法中开始了。可惜，事与愿违，我希望寒假可以开开心心玩耍的想法，却被下班回家的妈妈击碎了：

晚上，妈妈下班回家了，一进门，就看到我俩在屋子游手好闲地晃，妈妈一下子就生气了，问道：“你们俩在寒假想要干什么?”我俩心不在焉地答道：“玩呗!”妈妈又问道：“那寒假作业呢?”“写呗!”我俩又答道。可没想到，这四个字，犹如放在煤气罐下的火柴，“嗵”的一声，让周围的事物化为乌有。妈妈向我俩大举“政治教育”的旗帜，强烈攻势使我俩招架不住，只得“认罪伏法”，写下了放假必备——计划书。内容大体是这样：

上午：完成一些寒假作业，背会10个英语单词，完成一篇英语作文等;

下午：字帖一页，复习所学知识，玩耍等。

而这份计划最让我满意的就是劳逸结合。每当写的头晕脑胀时，就可以出去放松一下，正如龙井说唱的歌里所唱的：“敲开你的脑子让它出来透透气吧!来个深呼吸，呼出那烦恼和压力……”帮奶奶扫扫地，给爷爷倒杯水，听听音乐……等放松够了，再去写作业，效率会提高不少呢!

如果我能在上午完成这一天的任务，那么下午，就是我的自由时光了，想干什么，就干什么。晚上还能看电视或电影呢!

怎么样?我的寒假计划不错吧?

A bird in a cage, the free space is infinite, they like the frog in well spend in narrow space, not their own free life.

Each time I see them, they think, feel with the other.

Every day to stay in his own study, although the book is my partner, can let I dare not to mind empty, but sometimes standing to the window and saw the children of the same age with me on the ground to play, there is sweet smile on her face, in the heart how envy.

So, every day I see it, and have a headache, how much I yearn for freedom, I hate being at home, live a life they want, how perfect it is!!!

"The birds have belong to own sky, fish have belong to own lake, the grass has belongs to own the land, the flowers have their own sunshine, why cant I have my own life?" My time of day, but god is one of my speaker, what can he reach to me?

Freedom, how much I yearn for freedom, if one day, I walked alone in the wilderness of fragrant, let the wind blowing my hair, as the grass on my feet, as the sun on my face, I will always be walking without the light of day, when one day, I went to the sea to the sea to speak my mind, pick up a conch tell my secret about it, have a dream that one day someone picked up it, slowly to get the ears to listen to tell my story, unknowingly going the rounds and mom, dad, you may hear this story? If I understand my heart, give me a piece of my own perfect life, give me that you want freedom?

Have you heard the story?

"Sometimes, I also want to be free!" I loudly Shouting, bouts of echo in my ears. How I hope to have a free world!

关在鸟笼里的小鸟，自由的空间是无限的，它们就如井底之蛙，整天待在狭小的空间里，得不到属于自己的自由生活。

每每看到他们，便想到自己，便感到同命相怜。

每天待在自己的书房中，虽说书是我的伴侣，可以让我不敢到心中的空虚，但有时站到窗前，看见与我同龄的孩子在空地上玩耍，脸上露出甜美的微笑，心中别提有多羡慕了。

每天如此，我便看到书就心烦，头痛，我是多么渴望得到自由，我讨厌被人拘束，过自己想要的生活，该是多么完美呀!

“鸟儿有属于自己的天空，鱼儿有有属于自己的湖泊，草儿有属于自己的土地，花儿有属于自己的阳光，我为什么就不能有属于自己的生活呢?”我对天长叹，但老天只是我的一个诉说者，他又能为我达到什么呢?

自由，我是多么渴望得到自由，若有一天，我独自漫步在花香弥漫的旷野上，任风儿吹拂我的头发，任草儿在我的脚上摆动，任阳光照射在我的脸上，我始终是漫无天日地走着，当某年某日的时候我来到大海边，对着大海说出我的心事，捡起一个海螺对着它说出我的秘密，梦想有一天有人捡起它，慢慢地拿到耳畔倾听着我那诉说的故事，不知不觉地一传十，十传百，妈妈，爸爸，你们也会听到这个故事吗?是不是明白了我的心事，给我一片属于我自己的完美生活，给我那想要的自由?

你们听到了那个故事吗?

“有时，我也想要自由!”我大声地呐喊着，一阵阵的回音传入我的耳畔。我是多么希望有着自由的世界啊!

我的假期生活结束了。这个假期以来，我没有好好的学习，只是一直在玩耍。尽管作业写完了，可是也费了不少心思来玩游戏。旁边还有父母一直在唠叨，我也不服。每天几乎都会挨吵、挨骂，我也受够了!我还是认为在学校的生活比较好些，在家里，每天听着父母的唠叨，听的耳朵起茧子了，还是唠叨得不停;在学校，除老师之外，没有人管，无拘无束，自由自在，自己也舒服些……哎!这个假期，这么快的就过去了，我真怀念我的学校，那所中学，晚上可以在操场上跑步、立定跳远，累了，回到班中休息;下晚自习后，洗个热水澡，躺在床上休息，不知不觉中就能睡着……真怀念小时候的生活，可是一切都过去了，不想长大的我渐渐长大了，珍惜现在的生活，好好学习，这就是我现在的目标了。

There is nothing complicated about eating a proper diet. For good health,

eat a variety of foods. Do not eat the same foods day after day! Foods should be

selected everyday from each of basic four. They are the four groups of food

essential to proper nutrition: the milk group, meat group, vegetable-fruit

group, and bread- cereal group, Your body will then be supplied with all the

nutrients it requires; they are water, minerals, carbohydrate, fats and oils,

proteins, and vitamins. A persons diet is determined by his attitudes, likes

and dislikes. If you eat foods from each of the basic four groups each day, you

will have a balanced diet.

Topic one：Environment Protection（环境保护）

Water Pollution

With the development of industry, water pollution is becoming more serious now. The polluted water not only kills fish, it is also harmful to our health. Many people get sick because they drink the polluted water. In some rivers the water is so dirty that they can even kill plants.

We should fight against the pollution. We should stop using harmful things. I wish it is not a dream that in the near future we can have clean rivers again.

Environment Protection

Nowadays, peoples life has changed a lot with the development of modern technology and economy, which has put lots of negative effects on the environment.

Why this? Because, firstly, some factories are pouring wastes into rivers, lakes, seas and so forth; secondly, because of human activities, a great number of plants and animals are losing their lives; thirdly, using modern machines and chemicals is bad for the environment. Besides these, there are a lot of human activities which have done or are doing harm to our surroundings.

For this, I think, first, our government should make drastic measures to regulate human activities; second, we human beings should take pains-taking work to stop ourselves destroying the environment and try our best to protect our living space more.

In my opinion, the schoolwork now being assigned to high school students is too heavy. while it is true that students need to study, they need other things as well if they are to grow into healthy and well-rounded adults. high should be allowed more time for play. plying is not wasting time, as some think. it gives them physical exercise, and also exercise their imagination. which tends to be stifled by too much study.

Finally, the pressure put on high school students by excessive schoolwork can cause serious stress, which is unhealthy physically and mentally. i do not advocate the elimination of schoolwork. i do think, however, that a reduction of the current heavy load would be beneficial to students and to the society as a whole.

In the past two years, my parents took me to travel to many places, including big cities, small towns, famous mountians and so on. Therefore, I like traveling and I hope I can visit to many more places. Since then, I hope I can be a tour guide in the future, so I can travel to many tourist attractions. Besides, I can meet various people and I think communicating with different people is interesting, wchich can broaden my field of vision. I hope they can share their life stories with me so that I can know the general life of a place. I know it would be a challenging job, but I believe I can do well in my job.

Let me live in happy happy environment, let me free to healthy growth.

Grateful mother, is she taught me to learn to be, is she taught me how to communicate with partners communicate with each other, is she taught me to help and love from person to person.

At first I hated cousin very much in the heart, which will easily agree? Mother looked at will comfort me and patiently enlighten me, give me about the story of "jung let pear". After listening to the story, I also recognize the fault, and apologize to my cousin to apologize. Since then my Cousins and I are very friendly to get along, never quarrel with each other. Mothers teachings in my young mind leave deep memory, in my own life to learn to be nice, tolerance, apologize to each other.

Grateful mother, is she gave me the most unselfish love, she is always worried about my food, clothing, shelter, line. Thank for a mother for giving me the concern of dribs and drabs. The ancients cloud: "dripping of grace, when animals are reported". Ancient huang-xiang temperature had seats, carp lying ice... The story of 24 filial piety. This is Chinas mule Meng Peijie touched story. But now there is something in my gratitude for the mother of way, also dont finish. From now, I want to help my mother share housework more at ordinary times, reduce the mothers work, study hard work more at ordinary times, in order to reduce the worry about mother.

All in all, to thank for a mother for too much too much, I remember meng jiao has become a "the wanderer", "the loving mother hand line, wandering onto clothing. Departure thick seam, meaning fear of delay. Who made the heart-inch grass, at a three chunhui." Now I also send the poem to my mother, to express my gratitude to my mother.

感恩母亲，是她忍着十月怀胎的艰苦，期待着我将临人间。随着我的第一声洪亮的啼哭，母亲就开始日复一日，年复一年无休止地为我操心、操劳，无怨无悔，细心地呵护着、养育着我。让我生活在欢乐幸福的环境中，让我无忧无虑地健康成长。

感恩母亲，是她教会我学会做人，是她教会我如何去与伙伴们相互沟通交流，是她教会我人与人之间要互助互爱。在我记忆最深刻的是有一次，我和妈妈一起回老家，老家的表哥正在玩一个游戏模型玩具，我见了也很想玩就一把抢了过来，可表哥又抢了回去，我便一拳打过去，表哥也不让回打了我，于是我们便打了起来。这时妈妈见了急忙把我拉到一边去。平时因我是家中独生子，大家都对我疼爱有加，这让我养成了霸气十足不肯服输的个性。本想妈妈这回会叫表哥把玩具让给我玩，可是妈妈却没那样做，而是把我拉到一边要我向表哥道歉。起初我心中非常恨表哥，哪肯轻易服输呢?妈妈见状就不断安慰我并耐心地启迪我，给我讲起了“孔融让梨”的故事。听了这个故事后我也认识到了自已的错，便向表哥道歉认错。从那以后我跟表哥之间都非常友好地相处，再也没吵架过。母亲的教诲在我幼小的心灵留下深刻的记忆，使我在自己的生活中学会友善待人、互相宽容、互相歉让。

感恩母亲，是她把最无私的爱给了我，是她时时刻刻牵挂着我的衣、食、住、行。感谢母亲给予我的点点滴滴的关心。古人云：“滴水之恩，当涌泉相报”。古有黄香温席、卧冰求鲤……二十四孝的故事。今有感动中国孝女孟佩杰的故事。可如今的我对母亲的感恩有千言万语也道不尽，诉不完。从今起，我平时要多帮妈妈分担家务，减少母亲的操劳，平时多努力学习功课，以减少母亲的操心。多给母亲一些问候，为她倒茶端水，擦汗捶背。

总之，要感谢母亲的事太多太多了，我记起孟郊曾作过一首《游子吟》，“慈母手中线，游子身上衣。临行密密缝，意恐迟迟归。谁言寸草心，报得三春晖。”如今我也把这首诗送给我的母亲，以表达我对母亲的感恩之情。

I have stayed in Shanghai alone for a week. It’s time for me to go to my real home—it is in Beijing. My parents are waiting for me. Although outside is no matter how beautiful, Beijing is still my home. In fact, there is many fresh things. Like red bayberries.

In the afternoon, I took a bus to Beijing. I was very unlucky that my mp3 was stolen. I was very sad. I didn’t know why thieves went to steal other’s things. Why don’t they hunt for a job? I don’t why! I hope there is no thief in our motherland.

the fields his study， nature was his book。

travelers can choose different modes of transportation which have advantages and disadvantages。 airplanes are the fastest but also the most epensive。 buses and trains are less epensive， but they soon make you feel cramped and uncomfortable。 ships provide you with comfort unless you get seasick。 most people can afford traveling by bicycle， which， although slow， can limber up your muscles and get you closer to nature。

i was thirty-seven then, strapped in my seat as the huge 747 plunged through dense cloud cover on approach to the hamburg airport. cold november rains drenched the earth and lent everything the gloomy air of a flemish landscape: the ground crew ran gear, a flag atop a squat airport building, a bmw billboard. so germany again.

37岁的我端坐在波音747客机上，庞大的机体穿过厚重的夹雨云层，俯身向汉堡机场降落。11月砭人肌肤的冷雨将大地涂得一片阴沉，使得身披雨衣的地勤工、呆然垂向地面的候机楼上的旗，以及bmw广告板等的一切的一切，看上去竟同佛兰德派抑郁画幅的背景一般。罢了罢了，又是德国，我想。

once the plane was on the ground soft music began to flow from the ceiling speakers: a sweet orchestral cover version of the beatles " norwegian wood". the melody never failed to send a shudder through me, but this time it hit me harder than ever.

飞机刚一着陆，天花板扩音器中低声传出轻柔的背景音乐，那是一个管弦乐队演奏的甲壳虫乐队的《挪威的森林》。那旋律一如往日地使我难以自已。这一次，比往日还要强烈地摇撼着我的身心。

为了不使头脑胀裂，我弯下腰，双手捂脸。很快，一位德国空中小姐走来，用英语问我是不是不大舒服。我答说："不要紧，只是有点晕。

"are you sure?"

"yes, im sure. thanks."

"真的不要紧?"

"不要紧的，谢谢。"我说。

she smiled and left, and the music changed to a billy joel tune. i straightened up and looked out the plane window at the dark clouds hanging over the north sea, thinking of what i had lost in the course of my life: times gone forever, friends who had died or disappeared, feelings i would never know again.

她于是莞尔一笑，转身走开。音乐变成彼利·乔的曲子。我直起了腰，望着北海上空阴沉沉的云层，浮想联翩。我想起自己在过去人生旅途中失去的许多东西——蹉跎的岁月，死去或离去的人们无可追回的懊悔。

the plane reached the gate. people began unlatching their seatbelts and pulling baggage from the storage bins, and all the while i was in the meadow. i could smell the grass, feel the wind on my face, hear the cries of the birds. autumn 1969,and soon i wou1d be twenty.

机身停稳后，旅客解开安全带，从行李架中取出皮包和上衣等物。而我，仿佛依然置身于那片草地之中，呼吸着草的芬芳，感受着风的轻柔，谛听着鸟的鸣啭。那还是1969年的秋天，我快满20岁的时候。

true, given time enough, i can bring back her face. i start joining image-her tiny, cold hand; her straight, black hair so smooth and cool to the touch; a soft, rounded earlobe and the microscopic mole just beneath it; the camels hair coat she wore in the winter; her habit of looking straight into your eyes when asking a question; the slight trembling that would come to her voice now and then (as if she were speaking on a windy hilltop)-and suddenly her face is there, always in profile at first, because naoko and i were always out waking together, side by side. then she turns to me, and smiles, and tilts her head just a bit, and begins to speak, and she looks into my eyes as if trying to catch the image of a minnow that has darted across the pool of a m1impid spring.

当然，只要有时间，我会忆起她的面容。我追忆着：那冷冰冰的小手，那流线型泻下的手感爽适的秀发，那圆圆的软软的耳垂及其紧靠底端的小小黑痔，那冬日里时常穿的格调高雅的驼绒大衣，那总是定定注视对方眼睛发问的惯常动作，那不时奇妙发出的微微颤抖的语声(就像在强风中的山岗上说话一样)—随着这些印象的叠涌，她的面庞突然自然地浮现出来。最先出现是她的侧脸，大概因为我总是同她并肩走路的缘故，最先想起来的每每是她的侧影。随之，她朝我转过脸，甜甜地一笑，微微地低头，轻轻地启齿，定定地看着我的双眼，仿佛在一混清澈的泉水里寻觅稍纵即逝的小鱼的行踪。

i do need that time, though for naokos face to appear. and as the years have passed, the time has grown longer. the sad truth is that what i could recall in five seconds all too soon needed ten, then thirty, then a full minute——like shadows lengthening at dusk. someday, i suppose, the shadows will be swallowed up in darkness. there is no way around it: my memory is growing ever more distant from the spot where naoko used to stand-ever more distant from the spot where my old self used to stand. and nothing but scenery, that view of the meadow in october, returns again and again to me 1ike a symbolic scene in a movie. each time it appears, it delivers a kick to some part of my mind. "wale up," it says. "i’m still here! wake up and think about it. think about why im still here." the kicking never hurt me. theres no pain at all. just a hollow sound that echoes with each kick. and even that is bound to fade one day. at the hamburg airport, though, the kicks were longer and harder than usual which is why i am writing this book: to think. to understand! it just happens to be the way im made. i have to write things down to feel i fully comprehend them.

但是，让直子的面影在我脑海中浮现出来，我总是需要一点时间。而且，随着岁月的流逝，所需的时间愈来愈长。这固然令人悲哀，但事实就是如此。起初5秒即可想起，渐次变成10秒、30秒、1分钟。它延长得那样迅速，竟同夕阳下的阴影一般，并将很快消融在冥冥夜色之中。哦，原来我的记忆正在同直子原来站立的位置步步远离，甚至逐渐远离自己一度站过的位置。而惟独风景，惟独那片10月草地的风景，宛如电影中的象征性镜头，在我的脑际反复推出。并且那风景执着地连连踢我的脑袋，说着："起来，我可还在这里哟!起来，起来想想，思考一下我为什么还在这里。"不过这种踢法一点也不痛，一脚踢来，只是发出空洞的声响。甚至这声响或迟或早也将杳然远逝。但是在这汉堡机场，它们踢得比往常更长久、更有力：起来，理解我!惟其如此，我才动笔写这篇文字。我必须形诸文字，才能弄得水落石出。

Throughout history man has changed his physical environment in order to

improve his way of life。 With the tools of technology he has altered many

physical features of the earth。 He has transformed woodlands and prairies into

farms and made lakes and reserviors out of rivers for irrigation purposes or

hydroelectric power。 Man has also modified the face of the earth by draining

marshes and cutting through mountains to build roads and railways。

However， mans changes to the physical environment have not always had

beneficial results。 Today， pollution of the air and water is an increasing

danger to the health of the planet。 Each day thousands of tons of gases e out of

the exhausts of motor vehicles。 Smoke from factories pollutes the air of

industrialized areas and the surrounding areas of the countryside。 The pollution

of water is equally harmful。 The whole ecological balance of the sea is being

changed and industrial wastes have already made many rivers lifeless。

Now environmental protection is more pressing than ever before。 As we know，

massive destruction of environment has brought about negative effects and even

poses a great threat to mans existence。 Indifference to these problems will

mean mitting suicide。 Therefore， effective measures should be taken and laws

passed to conserve environment。 Otherwise，man is certain to suffer from the

serious consequences caused by this lack of care for his living

surroundings。
