中国有着悠久辉煌的历史，人民十分友善好客。但是我很好奇为什么有些人对自然和环境那么不在乎。在乡下的很多地方，河流已经变成臭哄哄的下水道，小溪也消失了。成堆的垃圾阻碍了污水难得的流动，地面上到处是丢弃的塑料瓶和塑料袋。尽管乱砍滥伐是违法的人们还是砍倒树木。在一些乡镇，垃圾就隐藏在墙后面。垃圾箱基本上没起到作用，使得清洁工人必须整天日日夜夜来回清理垃圾。
this lack of consideration for nature in general is extremely detrimental to children’s education, tochina’s image, to public health, to tourism and to the future.chinais the common treasure of all chinese, and we should live up to be a member of this big family, a descendant of 5000-year-plus ancient civilized country. i think the environment must absolutely be strictly protected by all means. this protection should go at the same pace as the marvelous development of the nation.
这种缺乏考虑大自然的行为一般都会对孩子的教育，对中国的形象，对公众的健康，对游客以及对未来很不利。中国是所有中国人共有的宝贵财富，我们必须成为这个大家庭中合格的一员，成为5000年古老文明的国家的子孙。我认为必须想方设法严格的保护环境，这种保护应该与国家的快速发展的步伐相一致。
in this respect,germanyis a rare model and leaves me a very deep impression. after you have an exciting tour around in this country for a week or so, it is unnecessary for you to polish your leather shoes. personally, first of all, the strong awareness of people’s environmental protection; then, the advanced technology applied in the field of preserving the nature; we can learn form others in building china into one of the most environmentally friendly places in the world.
在这一方面德国是少有的模范，给我留下了深刻的印象。当你环游这个国家大约一周之后，你没有必要去擦你的皮鞋。在我看来，首先是因为那里的人们保护环境的意识非常强；其次，在保护大自然这一领域应用的技术十分先进。我们可以向别人学习，把中国建设成世界上最环保最友好的国家。
china has a very long and brilliant history, whose people are so friendly and hospitable. but i am wondering why some people pay such little attention to the environment and nature. in many places of the countryside, rivers have become stinking sewers and brooks have disappeared. heaps of garbage obstructs the scarce flow of dirty water. the grounds are littered with plastic bottles and bags. people are cutting down trees even though it is illegal. in some towns, rubbish is hidden behind walls. garbage cans are often of little use, making cleaners must rush all day long and also by night to clean the rubbish.
