The earth mother as the cradle of life, human like a spoiled child of the earth. She give us everything we need for life leave her, we will get nothing. Beautiful living environment is the basis of which we live, but now, our environmental protection consciousness is more and more weak. Though, we all know that protect the environment, but not the property of the consciousness of earth, destroy the originally beautiful environment; In fact, in life, as long as pay attention, everywhere can be environmental protection.

In those restaurants everywhere can see around us, the boss in order to achieve "health" standard, and unconsciously extensive use of wooden chopsticks that were made from wood; Cost is huge, hits the verdant trees with bangs fall, only the birds were forced to leave, a group of a group of lovely animals homeless again, but as they didnt see, originally natural ecological environment destroyed by them, just like that. Not only did not have the forest, and animals are not spared. Recently, some cantonese put smart cute little monkeys alive opened the brain had his head down, they looked at each cute little monkey innocent dead, but still, this is what a horrible thing!

We as the master of the earth, if you dont cherish everything now, that this beautiful environment will leave us early. At that time, we will face catastrophe, the earth will be scarred, and hurt; So we should do owners should do, well protect our survival environment, do not deliberately to destroy, remember: to protect the environment, is to protect the future of mankind.

地球母亲就像是生命的摇篮,人类就像是地球的骄子。她,给予了我们生活所需要的一切离开她,我们就一无所获。美好的生存环境是我们赖以生活的基础,可是现在,我们保护环境的意识却越来越淡薄了。虽然,大家都知道保护环境,但却不自觉的掠夺地球的财产,破坏原本美丽的环境;其实,在生活中,只要留心,处处都能环保。

在我们周围的那些餐馆中随处可以看到,老板为了达到“卫生”的标准,而不自觉的大量使用那些用树木做出的木质筷子;为此付出的代价是巨大的,一棵棵青翠的树木随着巨响而轰然倒下,一只只鸟儿被迫离开,一群又一群可爱的动物无家可归,可他们却当作没有看到,原本自然的生态环境就这样被他们破坏。不仅森林没有了,而动物也是不放过。最近,一些广东人竟然把机灵可爱的小猴子活活的把头打开把脑子吃了下去,他们看着一只只可爱的小猴子无辜的死去,却还是无动于衷,这是多么令人发指的事呀!

我们身为地球的主人,如果不珍惜现在的一切,那这美好的环境一定会早早的离开我们。到时候,我们会面临灾难,地球也会伤痕累累,而受到伤害;所以我们应该做到主人应该做的事,好好的保护我们生存的环境,不要蓄意的去破坏,要记住:保护坏境,就是保护将来的人类。

With the continuous development of science and technology, the increasing number of cars, emissions of emissions has caused serious pollution, perhaps, a few years later generations, hundreds of years after everyone, perhaps because of air pollution and death. Now, twenty percent of the people on earth every year are killed by drinking contaminated water, and if this continues, will the earth become bare after tens of thousands of years, like the moon?

According to the statistics of scientists, every year, more than 20 percent of the trees are withered by exhaust pollution every year. More than eighty percent of our useful bacteria die, and everyone may feel very exaggerated, but it is true. Followed by contaminated waste water, waste gas and so on. Is human error?

How much I hope that we can cherish every thing around us, every animal, every beneficial bacteria, because it is possible, in tens of thousands of years later today, they are gone.

Animals have warned against humans;

Bacteria have warned against humans;

Every innocent life warned us.

"Human, do not harm yourself, do not kill us again!"

随着科技的不断发展,汽车的不断增多,排放的废气已经造成了严重的污染,或许,几年后的子孙后代、几百年后的大家,或许会因为大气污染而死亡。现在,地球上每一年都有百分之二十的人因为饮用了受到污染的水而死亡,如果这样延续下去,地球在几万年后岂不是变得光秃秃、像月球一样了?

据科学家的统计,每一年,每一月都有百分之二十多的树木因为废气污染而枯萎。百分之八十多对我们有益的细菌死亡,大家或许会觉得很夸张,但这是事实。其次还有受到污染的废水、废气等。人类有错吗?

我多么希望大家能珍惜我们身边的每一个事物,每一只动物,每一只有益的细菌,因为,很有可能,在几万年后的今天,他们都没有了。

动物对人类发起了警告;

细菌对人类发起了警告;

每一条无辜的生命对我们发起了警告。

“人类,不要再害你自己,不要再害死我们了吧!”

Do you know of any endangered animals?Why are they in danger?

I think there are many endangered animals in the world,such as tigers and pandas.When farmers cut down trees,tigers can no longer hide and hunt.Many tigers are killed by people who want to sell their fur for money.And there are few places where pandas can live.We are not alone in the world.We human beings could not live without all the plants and animals around us.So protecting wildlife animals are very important.We must take measures to keep plants from being destroyed and stop animals from being killed.If each of us can plant a tree and build a birdhouse,the world will be more beautiful.It is very easy but useful.

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?

小乌龟是我从市场上购买的,那个卖乌龟的阿姨告诉我,这种小乌龟永远长不大。听了阿姨的话,我对这只可爱的小乌龟更加的好奇了。

小乌龟有一个硬邦邦的壳儿,这可是它的“保护伞”哟!它的壳儿是翠绿色的,上面排满了六边形的团,下面也是由六边形的团组成的,只不过是乳白色的;小乌龟的头一旦有东西碰到了,酒会快速和两队足一起收回壳儿里,显得它特别小心谨慎。这只小乌龟很特被,头上有个菱形的小红点,特像个“小剑客”。小乌龟的眼睛水灵灵的、大大的,下面长着一张“樱桃小嘴”;再说说小乌龟的四肢。它虽然爬得很慢,但动作却很迅速,四肢很灵活;小乌龟有一根小瞧的尾巴,细得像根毛线。这根小尾巴平时伸出来时一摆一摆的可爱极了!

第一天把小乌龟买回来是它在小鱼缸里一动也不动的,我还以为它死了呢!过了一段时间,在我和外婆的精心照料下,小乌龟终于肯把头伸出来了,但有脚步声,它又把头和四肢都收回了它那硬邦邦的“保护伞”里。又过了一段时间;小乌龟终于和我像好朋友一样,非常开心。

小乌龟喜欢住在有水的地方(水不能太深)、喜欢吃颗粒较小的龟食、喜欢在平地上玩耍……

动物是人类的朋友,让我们亲近动物、关爱动物、保护动物,让我们从身边做起、从小事做起,让动物和人类成为真正的好朋友!

我最喜欢的小动物是小鸡。

恰好,我家楼下307号就养了几只小鸡。每天我们经过时,这些小鸡都偏着脑袋看我们哩。

小鸡全身毛茸茸的,很可爱。一身黄黄的羽毛像披着一件金黄的礼服。小鸡有一双尖尖的小嘴。圆圆的眼睛看人时还蛮有精神的呢。

我没看到它们的耳朵,但是小鸡不可能没有耳朵。如果没有耳朵的话,那我们走过去时,它们怎么会偏着脑袋朝我们瞧呢?

妈妈说,刚孵出的小鸡还只能吃小米粒,不能吃谷子或玉米,还要经常给它们喝水。要是有小虫子给它们吃,它们一定会长得更神气。

我多喜欢这些可爱的小鸡呀。但是爸爸妈妈说现在还不能养,不养好的话,它们会死的。

Mistreat your animals and someone might take them from you.

Allen (not his real name) is driving north out of Virginia in the middle of the night, with stolen property in the back of his van. But Allen isn‘t a criminal – in fact he normally would never dream of breaking the law.

The “property” he stole is a dog he calls Flash. Allen doesn‘t particularly want Flash – in fact, in a few hours he‘ll drop him off at a stranger‘s house and never see him again. “I couldn‘t just stand by and do nothing,” he explains. “The owner was plainly neglecting the dog, but the police wouldn‘t do anything about it.”

For over a year, Flash had been tied to a tree in front of someone‘s house. “He was sick and malnourished,” says Allen. “More than once I saw [the owner] kick him for no reason at all.” Allen had repeatedly tried to get the owner to take better care of the animal, or to give it away to someone who would. Finally, he took matters into his own hands – in the dead of night, he took Flash off his chain and drove away with him.

Within an hour, Flash had a new license tag and was being treated by a veterinarian who knew better than to ask questions. Pictures of the dog were put up on animal rescue websites, asking for someone to adopt the dog. A couple in New York offered to take the dog, and animal lovers in states along the way agreed to provide transportation.

Nobody can say for sure how many animals like Flash are ‘rescued‘ every year – receiving stolen property is a crime, so rescuers tend to stay in the shadows. But a growing number of empty collars attests to their work as more and more animals find their way to loving homes.
