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.

Read the book "treasure island" over the weekend, let me have deep feeling.

"Treasure island" is a story of treasure. One is called the pirate captain flint bought 700000 pounds worth of treasure in the treasure island, the protagonist of the story Jim accidentally got a treasure map, and some people treasure together. Treasure hunters and pirates launched a life and death struggle, finally, treasure hunters finally found the treasure.

I like the story of Jim, he is smart and brave, for example, after they got on the treasure island, and pirates, one day, Jim out of their camps, in the evening, he walked into the camp of the pirates, pirates leader didnt kill him, because love Jim wanted him to join the pirates, but he keep up, determined not to join the pirates. He that let me admire very much. Also, when sailing captured by pirates, Jim and the ships anchor partition, let the boat with the wind rocking, the pirates to stun, the pirates were shaking all night, and drank the wine, ships were robbed Jim come back the next day.

In the book, and Im impressed with a person, he is silver. Silver looks graceful on the surface, like a gentleman, but hes murderous pirate leader. In the ship as a cook, he, usually, people on board the ship like a family, but, in his convened a bunch of pirates, to treasure island, but decide to deny, and Jim they played out.

Everywhere in our life, but also has a "hypocrite", such as silver we should see through their camouflage, dont be fooled disguise.

周末读了《金银岛》这本书，让我深有感悟。

《金银岛》讲的是一个关于寻宝的故事。一个叫弗林特的海盗船长在金银岛上买了价值70万英镑的宝藏，故事的主人公吉姆偶然得到了一个藏宝图，和一些人一起寻宝。寻宝者和海盗展开了一场生死搏斗，最后，寻宝者终于找到了宝藏。

我最喜欢故事中的吉姆，他聪明机智而且很勇敢，比如说，在他们登上金银岛后，和海盗交战，有一天，吉姆出了他们的营地，到晚上，他却闯入了海盗的营地，海盗头子因为很喜欢吉姆所以没有杀他，想让他加入海盗，他却临危不乱，坚决不加入海盗。他的这一点让我非常敬佩。还有，当帆船被海盗占领，吉姆又把船的锚索隔断，让船随风摇晃，把海盗晃晕，海盗们被晃了一夜，加上喝了酒，第二天船就被吉姆抢了回来。

在书中，还有一个人让我印象深刻，他就是西尔弗。西尔弗表面上看起来举止文雅，像一个绅士，但是，他却是杀人不眨眼的海盗头子。他在船上担任厨师，平时对船上的人就像是亲人一样，但是，在他召集了一帮海盗，到岛上寻宝时，却翻脸不认人，和吉姆他们打的你死我活。

在我们的生活中，也处处有着像西尔弗这样的“伪君子”，我们要识破他们的伪装，不被伪装所蒙骗。

吴涛：

Hello!

你好!

In life, there are some things that are really difficult to say clearly; maybe one of my actions makes you have a great view; but to tell the truth, I always have an idea that good friends must not have anything to do with money; not that I am too realistic, but that there are some things, as long as the money is linked, how deep feelings will eventually be unhappy and dispersed.

人生之中，有一些事情，真的很难说清楚;也许我的一个行为，就让你产生了极大的看法;可是说实话，我一直有一个观念，好朋友之间，一定不能跟金钱有任何挂勾;不是我太现实，而是有一些事情，只要跟钱挂勾了以后，那么有多深的感情，最后都会不欢而散。

As a stable working person, I always think you should do a good job and make some achievements in your work. So when you borrow money from me to do business, I really disapprove of 10,000 people. I think people should not be too greedy in this life. Because you are an iron rice bowl person, if you do business, then your stable life will be broken. For my friend, Ive been trying to persuade you, but I believe you must have misunderstood me.

作为一个有稳定工作的你，我一直觉得你应该要好好工作，在工作上有所建树;所以当你向我借钱做生意的时候，我真的一万个不赞成;我觉得人这一生，不应该太贪心;因为你是一个端铁饭碗的人，如果做了生意以后，那么你稳定的生活，就将会被打破;所以作为朋友，我一直在劝你，但是我相信你一定误解了我。

To tell you the truth, when you ask to borrow money, I can say that I am not without money; but I think that there will be problems between friends if they have something to do with money; if you ask me to borrow money because you are in urgent need, then I will never hesitate; but if you take money to do business, then it must be risky; if you make money, then there will be risks between brothers. It must be easy to say, but if you lose money, will our relationship survive when I ask for money?

说实话，当你开口借钱的时候，我可以说，我并不是没有钱;而是我觉得，朋友之间，如果跟钱扯上关系以后，那么就一定会出问题;你要是因为急用，找我借钱，那么我决不犹豫;可是你是把钱拿去做生意，那么这一定是有风险的;如果你赚钱了，那么兄弟之间，都一定好说;可是如果你亏了，当我找你要钱的时候，我们的关系还能保存吗?

Maybe you really dont understand me very well, thats what youve always been thinking; if a person borrows money from me to do business, I wont borrow it either; if a person has difficulty borrowing money from me, I can help him borrow it without me; because I think that doing business and encountering difficulties are two different purposes; so I didnt lend money to you, so I let you see so much. Law.

也许你真的不太理解我，在一直的观念就是如此;如果一个人找我借钱做生意，我有没有我都不会借;如果一个人有困难找我借钱，我没有我都可以帮他找人借;因为我认为做生意和遇到困难，这是两个不同的用途;所以我才没有借钱给你，才让你有了那么大的看法。

You said that since then, our brotherhood has ceased; in fact, I feel very sad to hear such words; do you mean that our brotherhood is measured by money? In my opinion, you dont treat me as a brother at all; if you treat me as a brother, then I believe you wont say that and ask me to borrow money; because the real brother must be pure and never have anything to do with money.

你说从此以后，我们兄弟之情就断了;其实听到这样的话，我觉得很伤心;难道说，我们兄弟之情，就是用金钱来衡量的吗?在我看来，你根本就不把我当兄弟;如果你把我当兄弟，那么我相信你就不会说这种话，也不会找我开口借钱;因为真正的兄弟，一定是纯洁的，跟金钱永远也不会扯上关系。

In this society, money is really not a good thing; if you dont have money, people will look down on you, and if you have money, they will borrow it from you; if you have it, what is it? But when I cant borrow it, then I will become an enemy between brothers and friends, so instead of becoming an enemy in the end, why dont I borrow it from the beginning?

在这个社会之中，钱这个东西，真的不是一个好东西;没钱那么别人看不起你，有钱别人又要找你借;有借有还，这还没有什么?可是当借了以后，还不起的时候，那么兄弟之间，朋友之间，就会成了为仇人;所以与其最后都会成为仇人，那么我何不从一开始，就不要借。

I always dream about returning to the past. As many people say, childhood is the happiest and easiest time in one’s life. Children show you their true emotions.

They know what is compassion and what is tolerance better than adults.

In their world, all real thoughts are presented.

They may easily have different opinions with others, but they never understand what is animosity.

They enjoy making friends but they never think about making social communication net. Every child talks from the bottom of his heart without evil plans hidden and never intrigues against each other.

Only in children’s way can adults make our life simple, more real and more enjoyable.

I wish everyone’s heart would keep as innocent and lovely as they ever did in their childhood. Then, the walls between our hearts can be broken down and the world would be a better place to live in.

【参考译文】

我总是梦想回到过去。正如许多人所说的，童年是人生中最快乐、最容易的时光。孩子们向你展示真实的情感。

他们懂得什么是同情，什么比成年人更宽容。

在他们的世界里，所有的真实想法都被提出。

他们可以很容易地与别人有不同的意见，但是他们不知道什么是仇恨。

他们喜欢交朋友，但他们从不考虑社交网络。每一个孩子都会谈从心底没有邪恶的计划和隐藏的阴谋永远不会对对方。

只有在孩子的方式，成人使我们的生活更简单，更真实，更令人愉快。

我希望每个人的心都像他们的童年一样天真可爱。然后，我们的心之间的墙壁可以被打破，世界将是一个更好的地方住。

Water Pollution

With the development of industry, water pollution isbecoming 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.

Especially in vacations, phenomena of uncivilized behavior in parks or museums everywhere. Even in foreign countries, our Chinese citizens still do naturally, it seriously affected our country’s image. Of course, it has caused bad loss in ancient buildings and antiquities and our environments. So it’s urgent to advocate to have a cultural tourism.

Firstly, we should keep in mind the sense of protecting the environment. And when we have a tourism, we had better watch out the warning words carefully and then obey the rules. For the sake of ourselves and our country, let’s do some meaningful things for cultural tourism.
