为什么我们应该保护野生动物英语作文初二(实用20篇)

动物是人类的朋友，我们应该保护它，并不是要伤害它，我们拥有了这个世界，为什么不能让动物们和我们人类一起共同生存在这个世界上？

世界上已有很多的动物已经灭绝于我们人类之手，旅鸽就是其中之一：终年无忧无虑的生活在北美大陆上，每到迁徙的季节，它们成千上万遮天蔽日。当欧洲人刚踏上北美大陆时，这里有50多亿只旅鸽。可是欧洲人来到这里之后，由于旅鸽肉味鲜美，开始遭到他们大规模的围猎。从此，旅鸽也就一步步走向了灭绝。当时鸽肉在市场上轻易买到，密执安州一个季节里就捕获了750万只旅鸽。曾经，一个俱乐部一周就杀了5万只旅鸽，有人一天便杀了500只。他们把这些罪恶一一记录下来——那是他们比赛的成绩。甚至有人想出这样的方法——把一只旅鸽的眼睛缝上，绑在树枝上，张开罗网。它的同伴们闻讯赶来，于是一一落网。有时候，一次就能捉到上千只。这个方法一定传播得很广 。就这样，在不到100年的时间里，旅鸽从几十亿猛减到濒临灭绝。

旅鸽： 1900年野生灭绝；1914年在美国华盛顿国家博物馆的展厅里，有一只旅鸽站在一根树枝上，长长的嘴，尖尖的尾巴，展翅欲飞。但它永远告别了蓝天自云。它再也不能动，不能叫，不能吃东西了。这是世界上最后一只旅鸽，而且是一只标本。那双木然的眼睛，怅望着这个世纪的人们，是怎样的捕杀它的同类，是怎么剥它的皮抽它的筋剜它的肉的。

如果我们人类再不制止，生态就会不平衡，世界的资源就循环，我们人类也会灭绝。

虽然有些动物会伤害我们人类，但那是我们人类破坏了它们的生存环境和食物才导致的。只要我们保护环境、保护动物，让动物和我们一起生活在这个美丽的家园----地球，那我们的生活不就更美好。

让我们和动物一起这个美丽的家园吧！

一、充分准备，打好基础。

为了提高初一英语作文写作水平，平时应加强阅读，多背诵一些句形、段落甚至短文。俗话说：读书破万卷，下笔如有神，只有多读，多记，多背诵，才能出口成章，下笔成文。此外，写好初一英语作文还要掌握一些应用文体的写作方法，如书信、日记、通知等，它们大多有固定的格式。

二、认真审题，明确要求

在写初一英语作文的时候仔细看清写作要求和提示，分清材料的主次，接着确定体裁、格式和人物、地点等要素；最后确定时态，同时考虑相关的语态搭配用法。 三、遣词造句、表达规范

初一英语作文用词要恰当，不可逐句把提示翻译成英语。写作时，应尽量选用你最熟悉、最有把握的词和句型来表达思想。如果有些单词不会些，有些句型不会表达，可以设法绕开，用熟悉的同义词、同义短语或同义句来代替。要学会善于运用适当的关联词，如and, or, but, so，because, since等，以使初一英语作文行文逻辑紧密，自然流畅。 四、认真撰写，卷面整洁

初一英语考试中也会有初一英语作文题，如果时间允许，书面表达一定要先写草稿。在抄写入答题卷前，要先进行检查修改。首先检查所写内容是否切题；之后检查主题是否明确，表达方式是否恰当；最后检查所用时态、语态、人称是否符合要求，前后是否一致。 中考复习研讨会指导课件，极具价值。 关联词

My favourite animal 范文一

Dolphin is my favourite animal.

It is one of the most precious animals. Their bodies are very long, about one zhang（丈）. Dolphins live in the sea. They live on fish, shrimps and so on.

Dolphins are very friendly and peaceful. They never attack people. Instead, they have saved many people in danger in the past years. How helpful the dolphins are!

Dolphins are very clever. People often train them so that they can give a dolphin show which brings people a lot of happiness and joy.

Unluckily, the number of dolphins is getting smaller and smaller. Because of water pollution, there is less and less space for dolphins. Many people make money by hunting dolphins. If we don’t protect them, maybe we’ll lose our good friends one day. As a student, I hope more and more people should take actions to protect dolphins.

A Day to Remember

It was Sunday. Our teacher Mr Zhu led us to a park nearby.Usually we go to the park to spend our holiday. But today we went there to take part in voluntary labour.

We got there at nine oclock. Mr Zhu divided us into three groups and then we began working.

At about eleven we finished working. We met at the gate of the park. We all felt tired but very happy.

初二英语作文：Beijing Opera

Now let me say something about Beijing Opera. Beijing Opera is very popular in China. It has a history of more than 200 years. During the reign of the Qianlong emperor in the Qing dynasty, Qianlong had a interest in the local opera. In 1790, to celebrate his eightieth birthday, he summoned opera troupes from different places to perform for him in Beijing. Four famous troupes from Anhui province remained in Beijing after the celebration. In 1828, A Hubei troupe came to Beijing and often performed together with the Anhui troupes. The two types of singing mixed together and gradually a new type came into being known as Beijing Opera. Now is the performance. I hope you will like it.

Do you know how cities began?

Long ago, the world had only a few thousand people. These people moved from place to place, hunting animals for food. No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food.

Second, it can help us in our studies. In the morning we can learn more quickly.

Third, it can enable us to plan our work for the day. We cannot work well without a proper plan. Early rising can also give us enough time to get ready for our work..

So we say that those who always get up late should make great effort to get up early.

我们一家三人和妹妹一家三人一起游览了杭州动物园，与动物进行了一次“亲密接触”。

进入大门，迎接我们的是鹦鹉、八哥、鹩哥，它们彬彬有礼地、不停地说着“你好!你好……” 走过鸟的世界，我们踏着轻松的步伐进了水族馆。水族馆的成员可真不少，有各式各样、千姿百态的金鱼，珍稀的企鹅，当然，绝对少不了海狮、海象、海豹、海豚四“兄弟”了。老大海狮是个表演艺术家，顶球、钻圈、扮绅士样样拿手，精彩的表演看得我眼花缭乱。演出结束后，还“跑”过来与我合影留念。

穿过水族馆，我们来到了食草区。里面有“小巨人”长颈鹿、“变色龙”斑马、“沙漠之舟”骆驼等。对了，最有趣的还是“白胡子”山羊，它性格倔强，可智商(IQ)实在不敢恭维。爸爸用手轻轻顶住它的角，然后小心翼翼引到铁框边放开，倔强的山羊便狠命地顶着铁框，逗得我们捧腹大笑。

离开食草区，我们便到了食肉区。铁笼子里面关着一只只凶狠的豺狼虎豹，动物管理员给我讲了这样一个故事：不久前，有一个七岁的儿童想给豹子喂食，不幸被残忍的豹子咬断了腿。听了这个故事，我感触颇深，我想：我们人类要保护动物，保护自然，而动物也能与人类和平共处，那该多好啊!

Animal Protection

Animal is the friend of mankind, is an important part of the natural ecosystem. It is human precious naturalresources. Protect animals to maintain natural ecological balance has important significance.

But now many animals are facing the danger of extinction.With the development of society, pesticide used and serious pollution, city sewage .The wild animal living area is becoming increasingly narrow. Many of the animal is facing a food crisis currently . Whats more, in order to obtain wild animal of precious materials, humans are killing animals.

So I hope you to like them ,too.

你最喜欢什么动物?大象吗?还是老虎?但我最喜欢的动物是猴子。因为他们有黄色的皮肤，一个大嘴巴，一个小鼻子，两只大眼睛，他们很快地爬上树，他们可以摘香蕉或苹果，我认为他们非常可爱和有趣!

所以我希望你也喜欢他们。

昨天放学时，天气非常炎热，我下楼没看见爷爷，就借同学手机打了个电话，然后我等了几分钟，爷爷就来了。

我上了车一边与爷爷闲聊，一边看着路边的风景。

突然我看到公路上有一个毛茸茸的小东西，是老鼠吗？怎么可能，怎么可能有这么大的老鼠，我又仔细看了看，这小东西正摇着它那蓬松的大尾巴，呀！是松鼠！太神奇了，居然在大马路上看见了松鼠。它好像要过马路似的左顾右盼的，好像不怕人，我们电瓶车走过，也没有引起它的恐慌。这时一辆路虎朝它飞驰而来，我心里一阵担忧，心跳顿时加快，仿佛有什么大事情要发生似的。一瞬间这辆路虎飞快超过我们，也穿过了这只松鼠，一声清脆的咔嚓声传入我的耳膜，是那样的惊天动地，我看着松鼠在半空中翻了几圈又啪的一声掉在路上，就一动也不动，一点生息也没有了。顿时一种莫名的悲伤涌上了我的心头。为一个鲜活的生命逝去而痛心。

也许这个司机是无意的，没有看见松鼠。也许这只松鼠太相信人类了，认为大家都喜欢它，不会伤害它。可以惨剧确确实实在我眼前发生了，难道不能引起我们思考吗？

在我国青藏高原可可西里这个无人区里生活着许多藏羚羊，在修建天路时怕火车影响藏羚羊的迁徙，设计者们想出了在那里架设铁路桥，这样火车在上面过，藏羚羊从下面迁徙，人与自然在这里完美可以结合。这是保护稀有动物的极好例子啊！

在澳大利亚生活着许许多多的动物，动物在马路上走对于这里的人们不足为奇，司机们开车遇到动物还要主动给它们让路。这在当地是人们自觉的行为，体现了他们的爱心，所以在澳洲这块土地上才会有那么多的动物与人和睦相处。他们的行为难道不值得我们仿效吗？

现在的环境越来越好，动物朋友们会随时和我们邂逅。对于那些不期而遇的朋友，我们除了惊喜，当然还要注意保护它们。我们司机朋友在路上，不仅要避让行人，也要避保护它们，这也是我们社会文明社会进步的表现。

With the development ofscience and technology ,different kinds of pollution has been produced andcaused global concern recently.

As we know, people have beenliving on the earth for thousands of years, human activity damaged natural environment, such as excessive abuse of natural resources ,the sewage dischargedfrom factories ,the animal slaughter ,kinds of chemical fertilizers andgreen-house effect. All that is mentioned above has a bad impact on the eco-system .Now, many animals aredying out. We are suffering from unhealthy food and water, we are faced withharmful rays and global warming. It was ourselves who had made a series oftroubles. As you can see, we are the final victim.

Above all, if we human beings cannot recognize theseserious problems and try our best to solve them soon, we would finally lose theenvironment suitable for us to live. So, it is our duty to protect theenvironment ,but what should we do to protect it?

In my opinion, the first and important thing is tounite all forces ,that is to say---gather all hearts together. Next we shouldprotect and plant more trees, which can dispose of the dust in the air. As forfamilies, it is effective to ride bicycles rather than drive cars. Don’t litteranywhere as you like. In addition, sorting and recycling the rubbish also playan essential role in the protection of our earth. We’d better call on everyone aroundus to lead a low-carbon life, as it may make a difference to the environment.

Thus, it’s high time that we did something to improveour surroundings. Everybody should raise the awareness to protect our motherearth. Let’s appeal to more people to join us.

All in all ,there’s no doubt that keeping the balanceof human and nature ,we will benefit a lot.

The passage mainly tells us the importance of protecting traditional Chinese culture, which is challenged or facing extinction because of the developing society and changing lifestyle. Besides, China is nationwide sparing no efforts to do it.

The protection of national and folk culture is of great significance to Chinese cultural diversity and also to the harmonious development between local economic and social development. It is reported that the Guangdong government pays special attention to protecting Chaoju，a local drama born in Chaozhou in the eastern Guangdong province.

In my opinion, some measures should be taken to protect traditional culture effectively. To start with, we should make a law to regulate the society’s performance. Besides, we should draw more people’s attention to it, for the more they know about the importance of culture protection, the stronger the support we can get from the public.

In a word, it is high time for us to treasure and develop our own valuable culture.

应该禁止燃放烟火Fireworks Should Be Banned

In recent years, banning fireworks in a large number of Chinese cities has aroused a heat discussion among the public. Some are against it while some are for it. As far as I am concerned, banning fireworks is necessary and advantageous.

近年来，在中国许多大城市都有禁止燃放烟花的政策，这一禁令已引起社会大众的热烈讨论。有些人支持也有人表示反对，我认为禁止燃放烟火是很有必要且有益的。

There are a few points accounting for my view. First, banning fireworks is good for keeping air quality. Setting off fireworks is one of the sources of air pollution because it will produce a lot of sulfur dioxide and other hazardous gases, which may lower air quality if they are emitted unlimitedly. Second, banning fireworks is helpful for people’s health. The hazardous gases from setting off fireworks are a potential harm for people’s health because these gases are the causes of some serious disease like respiratory diseases. Besides, fireworks are also a threat for people. The explosion of fireworks is so fast that people will be hurt without awareness. In addition, setting off fireworks will produce noise, which has a negative influence on people’s health and life.

我的理由有如下几点。首先，禁止燃放烟火有利于保证空气质量。燃放烟火是一大空气污染的来源，因为燃放烟火会释放出大量的二氧化硫和其他有害气体， 如果这些有害气体不能得到控制将降低空气质量。其次，禁放烟火有助于人们的身体健康。燃放烟火而释放出的有害气体对人们的身体健康有潜在危害，因为这些有害气体会导致人们患上严重的疾病，例如呼吸道疾病。另外，烟火还会威胁到人们的安危。烟火燃爆十分迅猛，无警觉的人们常常会受到伤害。最后，燃放烟火爆竹会产生噪音，会对人们的身体健康和日常生活带来负面影响。

For above reasons, I consider that banning fireworks is advantageous. In addition, I think that other healthy and meaningful ways of celebrating festivals should replace setting off fireworks.

综上所述，我认为禁止燃放烟火是十分有利的。此外我想应该有比燃放烟火更好、更有意义地庆贺方式。

[是否应该禁止燃放烟火英语作文

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?

"Save the Earth" has become the strongest voice of the people of the world.

Humans are part of nature and are part of the world of life. Many lives constitute a coexistence and coexistence related to the reputation of large systems. Humans must treat nature, care for the environment, protect animals and plants, otherwise, will endanger their own survival.

Once upon a time, people have been cut off, so that the ecological balance of nature has been destroyed. Dune swallowed the vast expanse of fertile land, the flood washed away the lovely home, the natural revenge of human embarrassment dumb. Mei Shui River once said that there is no natural, there is no human, this is the world a simple truth. Blindly plunder nature, conquer nature, will only destroy the ecosystem, blame themselves, so that human beings on the verge of difficulties. This sentence is not bad, people do not give natural face, of course, naturally will not give people behind the road, 98 floods, dust storms in 2000, 08 earthquake, in fact, this is the nature of the warning issued to mankind. Environmental protection is not a new problem for us, and our government has long put forward clear governance objectives. As a real life in every ordinary people, although it is impossible to directly engage in environmental protection work, but we can start from small, start from me. We should establish environmental awareness and take practical action to implement environmental action. See the faucet in the toilet when the drip should be able to raise their hands. When the battery is used up after the collection should be collected instead of readily throw away. When shopping should consciously do not use ultra-thin plastic bags ... ... a small thing though very humble, but it shows how much we have a sense of environmental protection.

Cherish resources, protect the environment. Lets make this city more beautiful!

Remember, protect the earth is to protect yourself!

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.

烤鸡;烤鸭;各种各样的野味，早就是餐桌上见怪不怪的一道“家常便饭”了。电视上也报道过不少拯救国家级保护动物的节目，提倡世界各地的人们要保护动物。可是，为什么有的动物人们会不惜一切代价去挽救，而一些就要被摆在餐桌上供人们享用呢?不是提倡保护动物吗?

答案很简单，因为人们不惜一切代价拯救的动物叫“国家级保护”，而被摆在餐桌上的叫“家禽”。为什么?它们同样是活泼可爱的生命个体;同样是有爸爸妈妈疼爱的乖小孩;同样是被人们统称为动物。可是为什么?稀少的动物要保护，而多的却要吃掉。这边打着“保护动物”的头衔，那边却大口大口地咬着鸡鸭鱼肉。为什么那些国家级一出生就要被保护起来，过着比某些弱势群体还要舒服，而家禽一出生就是养大，等待它们的就是残忍的虐杀，然后做成各式各样的美味，被摆在餐桌上，就是为了吃它们的肉。

难道它们的生命不是生命吗?为什么要这样对待它们呢?如果有一天，换我们自己要被它们杀掉，然后做成各式各样的美味，供它们享用，我们自己的感受会是怎样的呢?

虽然我不是什么大作家，不能用很美的句子打动你们的心，但我想说的永远只有一个：同样是生命就应该受到尊重，我们没有权利决定别人的生死，饲养它们，充其量就是一个爱心的行为举动。

它们的生命也是生命，看完，请您保护您身边弱小的生命，谢谢!

亲爱的同学们：

如果朋友有了困难，你会袖手旁观吗?如果朋友遇到危机，你会见死不救吗?我想你当然会说：“不会!”

现在我们人类的朋友——动物，有的已濒临灭绝，有的数量急剧减少，很难想象：如果有一天，人们生活在一个没有动物，没有植物的城市沙漠中，生命将逐渐枯萎，色彩将消失……

同学们为拯救动物，拯救人类，拯救唯一的地球赶快行动起来吧!因此我提出以下几点建议：

1、我们小学生要积极学习和大力宣传《野生动物保护法》，让更多的人了解并遵守这个法律。

2、现在有许多卖田鸡的。田鸡又叫“青蛙”，它可是人类的老朋友了，所以我们不仅不应吃它，还应告诉大家爱护它。

3、目前，伤害鸟类的事时有发生，致使许多小鸟无家可归，我们应该给小鸟做些巢，让它们安家落户，为人类做更大的贡献。

4、如果我们在路上遇到了小动物，我们应该做到“三不”：不恐吓、不打击、不捕捉。

5、如果我们捡到或发现了珍贵的野生动物，应及时向居委会、学校及有关部门报告。

我想：只要大家自觉遵守《野生动物保护法》，自觉维护生态环境，那么我们的祖国，我们的未来会更加美丽富饶。

尊敬的广大市民：

动物是人类的朋友，是地球大家庭的一员，是大自然生态圈的重要组成部分。保护发展和合理利用动物资源，对于维护生态平衡，改善自然环境，促进人与自然的和谐，保持生物多样性，和经济社会全面持续可协调发展有着非常重要的意义。

历史以来，我县是一个动物资源比较丰富的地区。由于错误观念的误导，人们保护动物的意识不强。非法捕猎、贩卖、食用动物的现象时有发生，这些现象的存在严重损害了资溪的文明形象，与当今世界倡导的绿色消费、文明生活的主流格格不入。党的十八大提出：在建设中国特色社会主义的宏伟事业中，要加强生态文明建设，我们要贯彻落实好党的十八大精神，提高全县人民动物保护意识，为建设生态、文明、幸福资溪作出积极贡献。为此，我们郑重的向全县人民发出倡议：

从现在起，在全县范围内发起保护拒吃动物的全民行动，并长期坚持下去!

坚决反对落后、野蛮、残酷的消费陋习，提倡健康、环保、文明的生活消费方式!

坚决不捕杀保护动物!

坚决不吃保护动物!

坚决不参与非法买卖保护动物!

勇敢举报违反保护动物法规的行为!

让我们的郑重承诺传播到全社会，落实到每一个人。
