今天的這段對(duì)話,在討論環(huán)境,
環(huán)境在你們國(guó)家是個(gè)大問題嗎?政府為治理環(huán)境做了什么
來聽今天的講解:
A: Look at these pictures: dark dense smoke rolling up to the sky, chemicals pouring into the river, and tons of pesticides being sprayed on the soil...
看看這些照片:黑色的濃煙滾滾而上,化學(xué)物質(zhì)涌入河流,成噸的農(nóng)藥被噴灑在土壤上...
B: it's terrible! We are destroying the earth!
太糟糕了!我們?cè)跉绲厍?
A: you're right. Is the environment a big issue in your country?
是啊,環(huán)境在你們國(guó)家是個(gè)大問題嗎?
B: it is. But the pollution isn't as bad. My country has much less industry.
是的,但是污染并沒有那么嚴(yán)重,我們國(guó)家沒那么多工廠.
A: I see. Pollution is a big problem in China, especially in the cities.
我明白了。污染在中國(guó)是個(gè)大問題,尤其是在城市。
B: the air here is much more polluted than in my hometown. Ever think about moving somewhere cleaner?
這里的空氣比我家鄉(xiāng)的污染嚴(yán)重得多。你想過搬到更干凈的地方嗎?
A: you mean almost like an environmental refugee? That's easier said than done. I was born here and I love this city.
你說做環(huán)境難民?那說起來容易,可是我出生在這兒,而且我喜歡這個(gè)城市.
B: but living here can't be good for your health.
但是住在這里對(duì)你的健康沒有好處。
A: I know what you mean, but it can't be avoided. There are very few places left unaffected.
我明白你的意思,但是也沒有辦法啊!現(xiàn)在很少有城市沒被污染.
B: has your government done anything to try to solve the problem?
那你們的政府為解決這個(gè)問題做了什么嗎?
A: yes, but I don't think it alone can do enough to reverse the trend.
有啊,但是我覺得單靠一個(gè)政府的努力是不夠的.
B: you're right. I think all countries should work together to clean the world.
是這樣,我認(rèn)為所有的政府應(yīng)該共同努力來治理環(huán)境.
A: yeah, I could not agree more but we can't just leave it to the governments. Everyone needs to do their part.
完全同意,但是我覺得也不能全依靠政府,我們每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該盡自己一份力.
B: what do you think we ordinary people can do to protect the environment?
你認(rèn)為我們普通人能做些什么來保護(hù)環(huán)境?
A: oh, there are lots of things that can be done. Taking public transport is a start.
有很多事情可以做啊,比如乘坐公共交通工具.
B: good idea, but I think I'll start riding my bike instead. It's better exercise.
好主意,不過我要開始騎自行車了,這更有助于鍛煉身體.
A: there you go!
主意不錯(cuò)!
