The Earth——Our Mother-地球——我們的母親

The Earth——Our Mother
   Pcople often say that the earth is like our mother. She gives life to all the living things on the earth and provides us with air, food, water and other essential things we need for living.
   Once she was beautifhl and rich, but now she becomes dirtier and dirtier, poorer and poorer. It is due to what we have done to her. Please have a good look at her: polluted rivers and lakes, growing deserts, the destruction of the forests and wild life, and the depletion of the ozone layer…
   Can she bear to see her children putting the waste here and there? Can she bear too see her children cutting down the trees and destroying the grassland, to see the acid rain destroying everything? Can we bear to see our mother suffering so much? Isn' it time for us to ask ourselves whether this is the way to treat our mother?
   Floods, draughts, acid rain…,these are the punishments from nature. Everyone should know that there is only one earth, lfwe go on treating her like this, it won' t be fit for us to live in any longer. It' s time for us to love her, take good care of her and cure her. We should save the earth so as to save ourselves.
地球——我們的母親
   人們經(jīng)常說地球就像我們的母親。她給了地球上所有生物生命，給我們提供生活所必需的空氣、食物、水和一切基本的需要。
   曾經(jīng)她美麗富饒，而現(xiàn)在她變得越來越臟，越來越貧脊，那都是我們?cè)斐傻摹Ｕ?qǐng)好好看一看她：受污染的江河湖海、擴(kuò)張的沙漠、森林和野生生物的毀滅、臭氧層的耗盡……
   她能忍受她的孩子到處亂扔廢棄物嗎?她能忍受她的孩子砍伐樹木、毀壞草原，讓酸雨毀滅一切嗎?我們能忍受她遭受這樣的痛苦嗎?我們?cè)搯枂栁覀冏约?，這就是我們對(duì)待母親的方式嗎?
   洪水、干旱、酸雨……這些都是自然對(duì)我們的懲罰。每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該清楚人類只有一個(gè)地球。如果我們繼續(xù)這樣對(duì)待她，她將不再適合我們居住了。是該我們好好愛她、照顧她、治療她的時(shí)候了。我們應(yīng)該拯救地球，以便拯救我們自己。
