We often say that the earth is our homeland and human society comes from nature. Therefore, I think our society is a part of nature. People should live harmoniously with nature. All the materials we need to live with come from nature, but we should also repay the nature, rather than blindly solicit. For example, we should plant more trees and take actions to protect the environment. In addition, we have to control population. Due to excessive population growth, human beings require much more natural resources than before, which lead to excessive pressure on nature. In order to long-term development, the population growth must be controlled. We all come from nature which is our homeland, so we must try best to protect it.

我们常常说地球是我们的家园，人类社会也是从自然界分解出来的。因此，我认为我们的社会是自然界的一部分，人们应该与自然和谐共处。我们所需的所有生活材料都来自于自然，但是我们也要回馈自然，而不是一味地索取。例如，我们应该多种树，要采取有效措施保护好环境。此外，人口数量也应得到控制。由于人口过多，人类需要的生存材料也大大增加，导致了自然界所承受的压力过大。为了更长远地发展，人口的增长速度必须要得到控制。我们都来自自然，把自然界也称为我们的家园，所以我们必须要尽最大的努力去保护它。

Natural disaster is one of the biggest problems that the current world has to face with. Its damage is beyond our imagination. It has great influence on the suitable development of economic and society; even it will threaten the survival of mankind. People have to pay attention on it. Recently, people have suffered lots from it. For example, Ya An earthquake, England flood, Chile seaquake and so on. All these natural disasters have caused serious tragedy, leading a plenty of people hurt or died. However, the cause of natural disaster is the behavior of human beings. Just like, mankind chop down tress and then causing the appearance of debris flow. If we make great effort on it, we can reduce these natural disasters. There will be more people be saved with less natural disaster. The International Day for Natural Disaster Reduction is aiming at proposing everyone stop doing the things that will cause natural disaster.

自然灾害是当今世界面临的最大问题之一。其危害是超出我们想象的。它对经济和社会的可持续发展有着严重的影响，甚至会威胁到人类的生存。使得人们不得不对它特别关注。近期，人们已经遭受了很多的自然灾害。例如，雅安地震，英国洪水，智利海啸等。这些自然灾害已造成严重的悲剧，导致很多人受伤或死亡。然而，引起自然灾害的原因是人类行为。就像人类砍伐树木，从而引发泥石流的出现。如果我们能够付出努力，我们就可以减少这些自然灾害的发生。自然灾害少了，很多人会因此而得救。国际减少自然灾害日就是旨在提倡大家停止做会导致自然灾害的事情。

When I was very small, I lived in my hometown, which was a beautiful countryside. I had a good memory there. The green trees and the blue sky brought me great comfort. When I walked along the road, I could see so many birds flying in the sky. But when I moved to the city, there were all buildings around me. I barely saw birds in the sky. I had less chance to close to nature. In the future, more children will be born and live in the big cities, who don't have much chances to appreciate the beauty of nature. What a pity. The worse situation happens in the countryside is the pollution. The river is no longer clean and the rubbish can be seen everywhere. We are hurting the environment. If we don't protect the nature, then we are hurting ourselves.在我很小的时候，我住在我的家乡，那是一个美丽的乡村。那里有着我美好的记忆，绿树，蓝天带给我极大的舒适。当我走在路上的时候，我可以看到很多鸟在天上飞。但当我搬到城市以后，那里周围都是高楼，我几乎看不到鸟儿在天空中飞翔。我没什么机会亲近大自然。在未来，更多的孩子将在大城市出生并生活在那里，他们没有太多的机会去欣赏到大自然的美。真遗憾。最糟糕的情况是农村污染，河水不再干净，垃圾随处可见。我们正在伤害环境。如果我们不保护自然，那么就是在伤害自己。

When summer holiday comes, I always go back to my hometown and spend the time with my grandparents. I like the life there, it is so simple and happy. Living in the countryside, I feel the peace in my heart. It seemsthe days becomelonger. In the morning, I hear the cock make out the sound, as if it is singing, then I wake up. Sometimes I will go to the mountain and I can hear some birds singing. I enjoy listening to these birds’ sound. I am so close to the nature. I love everything that the nature brings. The green tree, the colorful flower, the clean water even the fresh air. I find its beauty.暑假的时候，我总是会回到老家跟爷爷奶奶在一起。我喜欢那里的生活，它是如此的简单和快乐。住在乡下，我心里感受到了平静。在这里的日子似乎变得更长一些。早上，我听到公鸡的声音，好像是在唱歌，之后我就醒过来了。有时我会跑到山上去，可以听到一些鸟儿唱歌。我喜欢它们的声音。我是如此的接近大自然。我爱大自然带来的一切。绿色的树，五彩缤纷的花朵，干净的水甚至是新鲜的空气。我找到了它的美。

Many years ago, I lived in my hometown, which was a small countryside, but I loved everything there. I remembered that the sky was very blue and the river was so clean that I could see fish swimming. I was so close to nature and I enjoyed what the nature brought to us. But now, when I go back to my hometown find that the environment has been polluted badly. I can barely see birds flying in the sky. I miss the beautiful nature. It is such shameful for people to destroy the environment. It is everybody's duty to protect the environment. We can't live if we don't get along well with nature.许多年前，我住在我的家乡，那是一个小乡村，但是我喜欢那里的一切。我记得，那时候天空很蓝，河水很干净，我可以看到鱼儿在游泳。我是如此的接触大自然，享受大自然给我们带来的一切。但是现在，当我回到家乡，我发现环境污染严重，我几乎看不到鸟儿在天上飞。我怀念美丽的大自然。人们破坏了环境是多么可耻啊。保护环境是每个人的责任，如果我们无法与自然和睦相处，那么就我们也就无法存活了。

In nature, there are many animals and plants in growth, they are a wide range of colors. And the nature, also gave birth to us, let us have a beautiful living environment. And, more importantly, the nature to make our earth is full of vitality, let the world is not dry, not drab. But...
We, as human of higher organisms in nature, for thousands of years in peace and harmony with nature, is home to the survival of nature has given us, we should thank it, protect it. But, in recent years, people have been in the destruction of nature, reformation nature. For example: people don't garbage everywhere scatters; Air pollution from factories, the tail gas from the cars have polluted the air; People also use the plane to deinsectization sprinkled pesticide in trees, polluting the environment; Of the more hateful and deforestation, killing animals. The destruction of nature, countless, chilling.
Humans, of course, also can't get away from the punishment of nature. People deforestation, soil erosion, land desertification area is larger and larger. People dig mountain mining, building roads and other activities, the mountain is not stable, so that it is easy to form a landslide or debris flow. According to statistics, in 1991 September 23 the sun village ditch landslide only 3 minutes, 18 million cubic meters of slope out of more than 3600 meters, 216 people were killed and eight people were injured and damaged house 202, nearly 300 head buried livestock, covering more than 300 mu of farmland, flooded roads more than 350 meters, the damaged cables and communication lines of more than 300 meters, direct economic loss of more than 100 ten thousand yuan! Is really horrible.
To avoid the punishment of nature, let us live in peace and harmony with nature, use natural resources reasonably, to protect the nature together!
大自然中，有许多的动物，植物在生长，它们种类繁多，五颜六色。而大自然，也孕育了我们人类，让我们人类有一个美丽的生存环境。更重要的是，大自然让我们的地球充满了勃勃生机，让这个世界不枯燥，不单调。可是.....
我们，作为大自然中的高等生物的人类，几千年来和大自然和睦相处，是大自然给了我们赖以生存的家园，我们应该感谢它，保护它。但是，近几年来，人们却一直在破坏大自然，改造大自然。例如：人们不用的垃圾随地抛撒;工厂排放的废气，汽车排出的尾气都污染了空气;为了除虫人们还用飞机在树木里洒农药，污染了环境;更可恨的是，还有人砍伐森林，捕杀动物。这些破坏大自然的事，数不胜数，令人寒心。
当然，人类也摆脱不了大自然的惩罚。人们砍伐森林，致使水土流失，土地荒漠化的面积越来越大。人们挖山开矿，建房修路等活动，致使山体不稳定，因此便容易形成滑坡或泥石流。据统计，1991年9月23日头寨沟的滑坡仅3分钟，1800万立方米的坡体就冲出3600多米远，造成216人死亡，8人受伤，毁屋202间，埋没牲畜近300头，覆盖农田300余亩，淹没公路350多米，损坏电线和通信线路300多米，直接经济损失达100多万元!真是惨不忍睹。
为了免受大自然的惩罚，让我们与大自然和睦相处，合理地利用自然资源，一起来保护大自然吧!

Man is the product of nature, people rely on natural and survival, it is known. In the process of survival and development, people should live in harmony with nature. But now, due to the expansion of the population, especially the human greed, unchecked for the nature, nature is badly damage, polluted water, reducing the green, gone part of the life, even threatening the survival of mankind itself.
Man is closely related to nature. The survival is dependent on natural resources. Drinking water. Heating of coal. The burning oil. Cooking gas... Notting have is not directly or indirectly derived from natural sources.
Earth resources rich again, also have to do. Therefore, the human to the use of natural resources, especially non-renewable resources, must be reasonable exploitation, effective use, to protect natural resources, the parched and fishing, kill the limited horizon, just drink my thirsty, ultimately hurt will be human beings, between human and natural resources, should find a way of sustainable, to protect the natural resources.
Should be in harmony between human and nature, and has been recognized by more and more people, accept and to practice, why want to harmony, this the truth clearly, intensive land for human beings with nature, nature will revenge on human, it has to be embodied from many natural disasters.
Since many people praise, drunk and linger in the midst of them, with their spiritual pen, writing a succession of good poems. These, how many people have made amazing! Love nature, into the natural. Close to nature. Natural writing, it will be your best choice.
人是自然的产物,人依赖自然而生存,这是众人皆知的道理.在生存与发展的过程中,人与自然应和谐相处.可现在,由于人口的膨胀,特别是人类的贪欲,对自然进行无节制的索取,自然已遭到严重的破坏,污染了水,减少了绿,消失了部分的生命,甚至威胁到了人类自身的生存.
人与自然息息相关.人的生存就依赖于自然资源.饮用的水.取暖的煤.燃烧的`油.做饭的气......无一不是直接或间接来源于自然源.
地球资源再丰富,也有竭尽之时.因此,人类对自然资源的利用,特别是不可再生的资源,一定要合理开采,有效利用,切实保护自然资源,那种涸译而渔,杀鸡取卵的只顾眼前的做法,无异饮鸠止渴,最终受害的将是人类自身,人与自然资源之间,应走可持续的路子,切实保护好自然资源.
人与自然之间应和谐相处,已被越来越多的人认同,接受并去实践,为什么要和谐,此中的道理很明显,人对自然超强度地索取,自然就会报复人类,这已从众多自然灾害中得到了体现.
从古到今多少人为之讴歌,他们沉醉在其中而流连忘返,用他们灵性的笔,书写了经世的佳作诗篇.这些,曾让多少人为之惊叹!热爱自然.走进自然.亲近自然.书写自然吧,这将是你最美好的选择.

在世界环保日来临前夕，联合国教科文组织就如何保护自然资源问题向全世界中学生征文。请根据提示以“Preserving Natural Resource”(保护自然资源)为题，写一篇英语短文。
要点：
1．随着人口的增长和科技的发展，自然资源月益短缺；
2．自然资源不可再生，许多资源濒临毁灭；
3．水资源越来越缺乏；
4．假如人类继续浪费资源。不采取有效措施，子孙生存将受到威胁.
Preserving Natural Resources
Thrdugh the changes'in the ways Of making a living in a family over several gen,erations, man has been warned against waste of natural resources and emphasizing the urgent need to preserve these resources.
Ever since man appeared on the earth, man's survival has been heavily relied on nature. Almost everything we use in our everyday life comes fromm'notate, ranging from the food we eat, the water we drink, to the wood which is tm'ned into furniture.With the development of technology and population growth, the amount and range of materials used has increased at an alarming rate.However, natural resources are not inexhaustible. Some reserves are already on the brink of exhaustion and there is no hope of replacing them. The widespread water shortage is an example in point. If man continued to squander natural resources with no thought for the future, the later generations would be in danger. It is up to us to take effective measures before the situation gets out of hand.
保护自然资源
经过几代人谋生方式的变化，人类已经得到警告，要反对浪费自然资源，急需保护这些资源。
自从人类在地球上出现以来，人类的生存就一直依赖自然。我们日常生活所用的一切，从吃的.东西、喝的水到做家具的木材，几乎都来自自然。随着科学技术的发展以及人口的增长，所用物品的数量和范围以令人担忧的速度在增长。然而，自然资源并不是无穷无尽的。一些储量已经到了穷尽的边缘，而且没有希望替换它们。分布广泛的水的缺乏就是一个例子。如果人类不为将来着想继续浪费自然资源，后代就会受到威胁。我们应该采取有效措施，防止形势恶化。

To Regain the Nature of Goodness —— Review of ‘Oliver Twist’
Oliver Twist, one of the most famous works of Charles Dickens’, is a novel reflecting the tragic fact of the life in Britain in 18th century.
The author who himself was born in a poor family wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks of those cruel criminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneath the narrow and dirty streets in London.
The hero of this novel was Oliver Twist, an orphan, who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime. He suffered enormous pain, such as hunger, thirst, beating and abuse. While reading the tragic experiences of the little Oliver, I was shocked by his sufferings. I felt for the poor boy, but at the same time I detested the evil Fagin and the brutal Bill. To my relief, as was written in all the best stories, the goodness eventually conquered devil and Oliver lived a happy life in the end. One of the plots that attracted me most is that after the theft, little Oliver was allowed to recover in the kind care of Mrs. Maylie and Rose and began a new life. He went for walks with them, or Rose read to him, and he worked hard at his lessons. He felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime and hardship and poverty.
How can such a little boy who had already suffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is the nature of goodness. I think it is the most important information implied in the novel by Dickens—he believed that goodness could conquer every difficulty. Although I don’t think goodness is omnipotent, yet I do believe that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded.
For me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person. Goodness is to humans what water is to fish. He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person. On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose’, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person. People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself.
To my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity. They look down on people’s honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted. As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others. On the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit. In their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility. If they cannot get profit from showing their ‘kindness’, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down. They are one of the sorts that I really detest.
Francis Bacon said in his essay, ‘Goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin.’
