Actually, water resource is very limited and precious. It is fortunate that now the public is starting to pay attention. Just as is depicted in the picture, just like saving money, the lovely and smiling piggy bank is collecting every drop of water falling from the water tap. However, water shortage is still a serious problem threatening the existence and survival of the whole human being, and yet the phenomenon of wasting water can still easily be found anywhere in our daily life. For example, water taps are frequently left on by careless users. Someone even assumes that they have the right to waste water because they pay for it so that it has nothing to do with others. In fact, so precious is water that we cannot afford to waste it. Water resource is indispensable not only in our daily life but also in the industry and agriculture. And water is the wealth of the whole mankind, and it is hard to imagine what the world would be like when there is no more water. Even though an increasing number of people have bee aware of this emergency, further measures still need to be taken. On the macro level, the whole world should make a joint effort to fight against waste of water. On the micro level, publicizing activities, such as broadcasting wonderful ways on how to save water on TV and other media, should be conducted. To store water means to store happiness and only by saving water can we save a better life for our offspring. 二、环境和雾霾相关词汇与句子 雾霾haze; 烟雾smog; 空气污染指数air pollution index; 橙色预警orange alert; 悬浮颗粒物airborne particulate matter; 可吸入颗粒物inhalable particle; 有毒物质toxic substance; 空气质量检测air quality monitoring; 实时发布PM2.5数据release real-time PM2.5 data 有害空气污染物hazardous airborne pollutant; 污浊的空气foul air; 连续多日烟雾consecutive smoggy days; 防尘口罩anti-dust gauze mask; 能见度低low visibility; 机动车尾气尘vehicle exhaust; 工业化industrialization; 乘客滞留passengers stranded; 追尾rear-end collision tilize the natural resources利用自然资源 ecosystem生态系统 water loss and soil erosion水土流失 deforestation森林砍伐 Evidently,the deterioration of the quality of the environment threatens the existence of mankind很明显,环境质量恶化会危及人类的生存。 Therefore,the best solution is that we should devote to the protection of our home while we are developing our economy.因此,最好的策略是,在发展经济的同时致力于保护环境。 Both the government and ordinary people should join hands to make this world a better place to live in,not only for ourselves,but also for future generations.政府和百姓应携起手来,一起打造更好的生存环境,不仅为了自己,更为了我们的子孙后代。 sustainable development可持续发展 According to its definition,the purpose of sustainable development is to meet the needs of the present without promising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.根据定义,可持续发展战略提出的目的'是在不损害子孙后代的利益的前提下满足今天人们的需要。 Good Night.
麦麦舞雨
寒暑表降到冰点下十八度的时候,我们也是在廊下睡觉。每夜最熟识的就是天上的星辰了。也不过是点点闪烁的光明,而相看惯了,偶然不见,也有些想望与无聊。
连夜雨雪,一点星光都看不见。荷和我拥衾对坐,在廊子的`两角,遥遥谈话。
荷指着说:“你看维纳斯(venus)升起来了!”我抬头望时,却是山路转折处的路灯。我怡然一笑,也指着对山的一星灯火说:“那边是丘比特(jupiter)呢!”
愈指愈多。松林中射来零乱的风灯,都成了满天星宿。真的,雪花隙里,看不出来天空和森林的界限,将繁灯当作繁星,简直是抵得过。
一念至诚的将假作真,灯光似乎都从地上飘起。这幻成的星光,都不移动,不必半夜梦醒时,再去追寻他们的位置。
于是雨雪寂寞之夜,也有了慰安了!
stars on a snowy night
the thermometer had dropped to 18 degrees below zero, but still chose to sleep in the porch as usual. in the evening, the most familiar sight to me would be stars in the sky. though they were a mere sprinkle of twinkling dots, yet i had become so accustomed to them that their occasional absence would bring me loneliness and ennui.
it had been snowing all night, not a single star in sight. my roommate and i, each wrapped in a quilt, were seated far apart in a different corner of the porch, facing each other and chatting away.
she exclaimed pointing to something afar, “look, venus in rising!” i looked up and saw nothing but a lamp round the bend in a mountain path. i beamed and said pointing to a tiny lamplight on the opposite mountain, “it’s jupiter over there!”
more and more lights came into sight as we kept pointing here and there. lights from hurricane lamps flickering about in the pine forest created the scene of a star-studded sky. with the distinction between sky and forest obscured by snowflakes, the numerous lamp-lights now easily passed for as many stars.
completely lost in a make-believe world, i seemed to see all the lamplights drifting from the ground. with the illusory stars hanging still overhead, i was spared the effort of tracing their positions when i woke up from my dreams in the dead of night.
thus i found consolation even on a lonely snowy night !
注释 :
(雨雪时候的星辰)是冰心的早期抒情散文。文章赞美自然,想象精细,文笔清新,充满诗情画意。
① 题目(雨雪时候的星辰)翻译为stars on a snowy night。“雨雪”作“下雪”解,“雨”在此是动词,读音为yù。
② “无聊” 翻译为ennui,是英语常用文学语言,意即a feeling of boredom caused by a lack of excitement or activity。
③ “一点星光都看不见” 译为not a single star in sight,是句中独立主格, 和not a single star being in sight同。又译文用s押头韵,night和sight压韵脚,有音韵美。
④ “荷和我……” 译为my roommate and i...,其中用my roommate(同寝之友)代替专门名词he(荷),以免外国读者把he读解为男性第三人称的代词。
⑤ “荷指着说……” 译为she said pointing her finger at...,因英语to point one's finger at有“指责”的含义。
⑥ “我抬头望时” 不宜逐字死译为i raised my head to take a look 。译为i liked up即可。
⑦ “山路转折处” 译为round the bend in a mountain path。注意bend后面跟介词in,属习惯用法。
“将繁灯当作繁星,简直是抵得过” 译为the numerouslamp-lights now easily passed for as many stars,其中短语to pass for 的意思是“被看作”,“被当作”等.
静夜玄霜
1. It rained cats and dogs last night. 昨晚雨下得很大。Rain cats and dogs是一句非常受欢迎的俚语,几乎每个学英语的学生都懂得用 rain cats and dogs 来形容雨下得很大。当然如果你不想用俚语的讲法,你可以说:"It's raining really hard.(雨下得很大)"或是"We're having a heavy rain."同样也是“雨下得很大”。那“雨下得很大,我被淋成了落汤鸡”这整句话要怎么讲?“落汤鸡”在英文里常用"I am soaked."(我湿透了)来形容。因此,我们可以说:It's raining cats and dogs out there so I'm soaked.2. We had a downpour. 我们刚遇到了一场倾盆大雨。中文里常形容下雨像是用“倒”的一样,这在英文里也有同样对等的字眼喔!英文里用的是 downpour 这个词。所以“下雨像是用倒的”我们可以说:"We had a downpour."另外有一个十分口语的讲法就是"It's really coming down out there.",也是形容雨下得很大,像是用“倒”的一样。3. It's just sprinkling. 只是在下毛毛雨而已。在英文里不管下“毛毛雨”或是“毛毛雪”我们都可以用 drizzle 和 sprinkle 这两个动词来表示。Drizzle 这个词就是气象术语“下毛毛雨”的意思,而sprinkle 则是一个动词表示“撒”,但也常被用来形容毛毛雨。常听到的用法就是:"It's drizzling." 或是 "It's sprinkling."另外还有一个词叫 scattered rain,指的则是“零零星星地降雨”。例如:We have to cancel the track and field contest because of the scattered rain.因为零星的降雨所以我们必须取消田径赛。
