“低碳经济”是一个具有广泛社会性的经济前沿理念，最早是在2003年英国政府发布的能源白皮书《我们能源的未来：创建低碳经济》正式提出的。低碳经济包括低碳发展、低碳产业、低碳技术和低碳生活等经济形态，是指在不影响经济发展的前提下，通过技术创新和制度创新，降低能源和资源消耗，尽可能最大限度地减少温室气体和污染物的排放，实现减缓气候变化的目标，促进人类的可持续发展。
Protection of Environment
1. 目前环保还存在着许多问题。
2. 为了保护环境，
3. 各国政府做了大量的工作。
4. 我的看法。
There are still many problems of environmental protection in recent years. One of the most serious problems is the serious pollution of air, water and soil. The polluted air does great harm to people’s health. The polluted water causes diseases and death. What is more, vegetation had been greatly reduced with the rapid growth of modern cities.
近年来环境保护仍然有许多问题。最严重的问题之一是严重的空气、水和土壤污染。被污染的空气对人体健康危害很大。污染的水会引起疾病和死亡。更重要的是，随着现代城市的快速增长植被已大大减少了。
To protect the environment, governments of many countries have done a lot. Legislative steps have been introduced to control air pollution, to protect the forest and sea resources and to stop any environmental pollution. Therefore, governments are playing the most important role in the environmental protection today.
为了保护环境，各国政府做了很多努力。立法措施已经被用来控制空气污染，保护森林资源和海洋资源，制止任何的环境污染。因此，在当今的环保中政府起着最重要的作用。
In my opinion, to protect environment, the government must take even more concrete measures. First, it should let people fully realize the importance of environmental protection through education. Second, much more efforts should be made to put the population planning policy into practice, because more people means more pollution. Finally, those who destroy the environment intentionally should be severely punished. We should let them know that destroying environment means destroying mankind themselves.
在我看来，为了保护环境，政府必须采取更具体的措施。首先，它应该让人们充分认识到通过教育意识到环境保护的重要性。第二，应该付出更多的努力把计划生育政策付诸实施，因为人口越多就意味着污染越多。最后，那些故意破坏环境的人应该受到严惩。我们应该让他们知道破坏环境就是毁灭人类自己。
全世界的环境问题在变得越来越严重。请你根据漫画内容和下面要求给China Daily写一封信反映这一情况，并提出保护环境的建议。
注意：1.信的开头与结尾已经给出，不计算在总词数内。

Dear editor,
亲爱的编辑，
Environmental problems are becoming more and more serious all over the world.
环境问题在世界各地都变得越来越严重。
With the development of industry and agriculture, cars make great noises and give off poisonous gas. Because of population expansion and over development, resources has become less and less. Trees on the hills have been cut down, and waste water is being poured continuously into rivers. The whole ecological balance of the earth is changing. Massive destruction of environment has brought about negative effects and even poses a great threat to man’s existence.
随着工农业的发展，汽车带来噪音、排放毒气。由于人口的增长和过度发展，资源变得越来越少。山上的树木被砍伐，污水不断被排入河流。整个地球的生态平衡正在改变。环境的巨大破坏已带来负面影响，甚至对人类生存带来巨大的威胁。
We must face the situation that exists and take actions to solve our environmental problems. We hope that all these measures will be effective and bring back a healthful environment.
我们必须面对存在的现状实，并采取行动解决环境问题。我们希望这些措施都能够有效地实施并给我们带来一个健康的环境。

根据题目《师父被熏晕过去了》的漫画和下面要求写一篇关于河水污染的感想。
1. 情况。2. 原因。3. 后果。4. 措施。
词数 100~120。
One day Sun Wukong together with his master and brothers was walking across a river. Suddenly his master fell off the horse by the bad smell of river water. They found the water so dirty that they could hardly breathe.
一天孙悟空与他的师傅和师兄弟正在过河。突然他师父被臭水河的味道熏落马。他们发现水脏到几乎不能呼吸。
A lot of factories along the river always poured their waste water and rubbish straight into the river which made the river water polluted. In this way most of the fish in the river were killed. If the river water all over the country is polluted like this, no living things will exist in the water. Now more and more people have come to realize how serious this problem is. Our government is doing her best to take measures to fight against pollution. We expect that the water in every river will be made cleaner and cleaner before long.
沿河有很多工厂都将其废水和垃圾直接倒进河流使河水受到污染。这样，大多数的鱼在河中被杀死。如果全国各地的河水都被这样污染，水中将无活着的生物。现在越来越多的人已经意识到这个问题有多严重了。我国政府正在努力采取措施，与污染作斗争。我们期待河流中的水不久后将变得越来越干净。
