So, we only have stood in long lines, slowly, etc. Although I looked at the ship, the ship under a stream of water, but no one would like to use it. Because the water is so dirty, so HunHuang, who dare to use? Line only slowly, slowly, etc!
Although in the high-speed development of science and technology nowadays, but the impact on our environment. Reduced river pollution, air pollution, the trees, the increasing of the desert... All this is all thanks to the human! Countries while in value, although the world in value, environmental protection, what and how much these things figure up attention? In my opinion, is rare. Although countries in so to speak, but whats the use of words and not of deeds? Did just a few, too! Dont grab from main reason! You see, the Yellow River water is not still contaminated? So the factory does not still pollute the atmosphere? Should grasp, starts from the quality of people, quality grab, but the country and the world to do so? No!

首先,我先给大家讲一个真实的事件。那是我随我的外公从宜昌坐船前往三峡时发生的一件事。
那天早晨,船上的人都起来了,正准备打水洗淑。可是船上的水龙头半天也只下来几滴水,一询问,原来是船上的水用完了!所以,大家只有排着长长的队伍,慢慢的等。我望着船下,船下虽然有着流不尽的江水,但却没有一个人愿意来使用它。因为江水太脏了,是那么的浑黄,又有谁敢去使用呢?只有慢慢的排队,慢慢的等!
如今科技虽然在高速发展,但这影响到了我们的环境。河流污染,大气污染,树木的减少,沙漠的增多……这一切的一切都是拜人类所赐!国家虽然在重视,世界虽然在重视,什么环境保护日,这些事又有多少人影起了注意呢?在我看来,是极少的。国家虽然在这么说,可是光说不做又有什么用呢?做了也只是少数罢了!根本没有从主要原因抓起!你看,黄河的水不是还在被污染吗?工厂不照样还在污染大气吗?抓,就应该从小抓起,从人们的素质,品质抓起,可是国家乃至世界这么做了吗?没有!即使做了也只是做样子罢了。环境不是照样还在被污染吗?
动物还在灭绝,山洪还在爆发,沙尘暴照样存在……这都充分说明了环境还在污染!国家只会去赈灾,而不去根本抓起,只会去赈灾,这又有什么用呢?各种灾难不还是照样在发生吗?我们应该像鲁迅一样。他当初从医是为了拯救中国人,而他发现,这解决不了根本,所以,他当了作家,去拯救人们的精神。因为这就是根本!所以,我们作为21世纪的小主人,就应该明白,什么是破坏环境的根本,从要点去解决它。努力吧――21世纪的我们!

篇20:英语成语故事:后来居上附翻译
全文共 2928 字
+ 加入清单Ji Anlived at the time of Emperor Wudi of the Western Han Dynasty (206 B.C.-A.D.24). He was respected for being upright and just and for daring to speak the truth. He did not bother about amall matters in personal behaviour and in being an official. He was particular about actual effects and ,although he did not cause a stir ,he could keep the prefecture he governed in perfect order. Because of this. the imperial court transferred him to the central government from being the perfect of the Donghai Prefecture to being a commander in charge of the appointment and dismissal of the local officals.
Once,Emperor Wudi said that he would implement the policy of benevolence and justice of Confucianism and would do good turns to the people.Emperor Wudi Had hardly finished his remards when Ji An said that there was no need for the emperor to say so.Why should the emperor bother,Ji An said, about pretending to implement the policy of benevolence and justice since he was so greedy and avaricious within himself? This choked the emperor off. The emperor suddenly Changed his countenance and declared the meeting over. All the civilian and military officers at court were breathless with anxiety for fear that Ji An might bring disaster upon himself because of this. After returning, Emperor Wudi said to the people around him that Ji An was a little too rude and too straightforward.
For this reason ,Ji An was never promoted again. When he was the commander in charge of the appointment and dismissal of the local officials, both Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang were low -ranking lfficials of little importance. Later ,they were promoted continuously. Gongsun Hong became the prime minister and Zhang Tang became the imperial censor. However, JiAns post remained thesame. One day, Ji An said to Emperor Wudi that the way the emperor used his ministers was just like piling up firewood, which meant that the latecomers surpassed the old-timers. Of course, Emperor Wudi could see that Ji An was complaining. So,turning to his ministers, Emperor Wudi said, "It is true that no one can stop learning.You see, Ji An is making more and more indiscreet remarks."
This story comes from The Historical Records. Later generations use the set phrase "the latecomers surpass the old-timers " to indicate that successors can cxcel the predecessors, which is quite different from the original idea when Ji An said that the latecomers surpassed the old-timers.
汲黯是西汉武帝时代人,以刚直正义、敢讲真话而受人尊重。他为人和做官都不拘小节,讲求实效。虽然表面上不那么轰轰烈烈,却能把一个郡治理得井井有条,因此,朝廷把他从东海太守调到朝廷当主爵都尉——一种主管地方吏任免的官职。
有一次,汉武帝说要实行儒家的仁义之政,为老百姓办好事了。没等皇帝把话说完,汲黯就说:“陛下内心里那么贪婪多欲,表面上却要装得实行仁政,这是何苦呢?”一句话把皇帝噎了回去。汉武帝登时脸色大变,宣布罢朝,满朝文武都为汲黯捏着一把汗,担心他会因此招来大祸。武帝回到宫里以后,对身边的人说,汲黯这个人也未免太粗太直了。
从此以后,汲黯的官职再也没有提升。他当主爵都尉的时候,公孙弘、张汤都还是不起眼的小官,后来,他们一个劲儿住上升,公孙弘当上了丞相,张汤做上了御史大夫,可他汲黯还蹲在原地没动窝。有一天,汲黯对武帝说,陛下使用群臣,跟码劈柴一样,是“后来者居上”啊!汉武帝当然听得出这是发牢骚。于是,转脸对臣下们说:“人真是不能不学习啊!你们听汲黯说话,越来越离谱了!”
