Our surroundings (环境) are being polluted faster than the nature and man's present efforts cannot prevent it. Time is bringing us more people, and more people will bring us more industry, more cars, larger cities, and growing use of man-made materials.

There is a constant (经常的) flow of people from the countryside into the cities, eager for the benefits of our modern society. But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years, pollution has become a serious problem.

三、书面表达

请你根据下列要点写一篇论述文，谈谈如何保护大自然。词数120个左右。

1．当今污染已成为全球问题。空气、河海、土壤的污染对人类和动物都十分有害。

2．举例说明种污染的原因以及产生的严重后果。

3．要采取有效措施阻止污染、净化环境、保护生态平衡。

答案：

Protecting Nature

Nowadays pollution has become a serious problem. The air, seas, rivers and land have been polluted by all kinds of waste and poisonous things. It does great harm not only to human beings, but also to animals and plants.

We can't find any fish in many rivers and the water is not fit for people to drink, because it is polluted. We can't have fresh air because many factories have sent out poisonous gases into the air. It is reported that strange diseases have resulted from eating polluted food.

There is a saying: Nature is the mother of mankind. We should not mistreat our mother. Strong efforts must be taken to stop the destruction of the environment. We must protect nature and keep nature in balance.
