This green and blue planet spinning in space is under severe stress. If we continue to exploit the planet at the present rate,human and animal life will be threatened. Human pride will be followed by nature' s punishment. To save our earth and ourselves,we need first develop an unbiased understanding of ourselves,nature and life.
这个在太空中不停旋转的绿蓝相间的星球正承受很大压力。如果我们继续利用目前的
速度开发这个星球 ,人类和动物的生命将受到威胁 。随人类的骄傲而来的将是大自
然的惩罚。若要保存我们的地球和我们自己,我们首先需要自己 、 大自然以及我们
的生活建立一个没有偏见的认识。
Everyone understands the meaning of the sentence6*Man should respect animal life and nature". But the exact meaning of man,nature and animal life is not always clear. Many refer to man and animals as if they were essentially different. I consider man to be an animal and only differing in degree and not in kind from other animals. Although I discuss in conventional terms human rights and animal rights as if they were separate,strictly speaking,human rights should be considered a branch of animal rights.
大家都明白“ 人类应尊重动物的生命与自然 ”的含义 。然而,人、 自然和动物生命
的确切含义并不总是十分清楚。很多人在涉及到人与动物的议题上 ,趋向认为它们
是本质上的不同。我个人觉得是人是动物的一种,和其它动物有一定级别上的差异,
但并无根本的种类差别。虽然我在常规条款中将人权和动物权利论述得好像他们是
完全不同的概念,其实严格来说 ,人权应属于动物权利的一个分支 。
The word " nature" is one of the most complex words in the
language,but it has developed three main areas of meaning. These are
,first,the essential quality and character of something( as in human
nature,or the nature of wood) ; second,the inherent force which
influences the world( as in Mother Nature) ; third,the entire world
itself. The last can be taken to include or to exclude human be]ngs,as
the phrase man and the natural world implies.
"自然"是在语言中最复杂的词汇之一,但它产生出了三个方面的含义。他们是,第一 ,
某些物体的基本素质和性格 (如人的本性或木材的性质) ;第二,自然存在的影
响世界的力量 (如大自然) ;第三,整个世界本身。它可以是包括人类 , 也可以
如同“人类和自然世界”这一短语内涵的定义一样不包括人类 。
I consider humans to be an integral part of nature, although they are also the beings most capable of interfering with its processes. Unfortunately a central drive of Western" man" has been to conquer"nature" , as if it were an object separate from him. Hence it has become c.ommon to distinguish between what is natural( existing without man.' s interference) and artificial( man-made). In this way, natural growth is opposed to education, civilization to the natural state. For many urban people living permanently among concrete and glass, nature itself has come to mean little more than the countryside. And this notion of opposition is where the seed of potential destruction lies.
虽然人类最能干扰自然界进程,但我认为人类仍然是大自然的一个不可分割的组成部
分。不幸的是,西方人的一个最主要的目标是征服"自然" ,好象它是是独立于自然
以外的生命。因此,是“人造”(人们制作的)还是“天然 ”(并非因人类的介入而存
在)成了区别万物的常用方法 。这样,自然增长被认为反对教育、 自然状态被认为
不文明。对于长期生活在混凝土和玻璃中间的许多城市人 ,大自然本身已经变得仅
仅是比农村稍强的外界。而这一排他性的概念正是潜在毁灭性种子的肥沃 。
水是生命之源,地球上不能没有水。如果没有了水,人与动物怎么在这个星球上生活下去呢?现在,因为人口增长 ,工业,农业的发展,浪费污染等。缺水问题越来越严重 。 我们应该采取措施 ,解决缺水问题,充分利用水资源,在生活中节约用水 ,例如,循环用水,淘完米的水用来洗菜 ,浇花等等。避免污染,采取措施。 最后,地球是我家 ,请珍惜水资源
Water is the source of life, the earth can not live without water. If there is no water, how do people and animals live on this planet? Now, because of population growth, industry, agriculture, waste pollution, etc. Water shortage is more and more serious. We should take measures to solve the problem of water shortage, make full use of water resources, saving water in our daily life, for example, water circulation, clean out the meters of water used to wash the dishes, water the flowers and so on. Avoid pollution and take measures. Finally, the earth is my home, please cherish water resources
