92. A Letter to a Newspaper Editor 給報社編輯的一封信
July 19, 2002
Dear Sir or Madam,
We are writing to you for your help. Our hometown used to be a beautiful place in the past. Thick trees and green grass could be seen everywhere. But recently, people have cut down more and more trees in order to build houses and grow more crops. As time has gone on, the whole forest has almost been destroyed and the green hills have changed into wasteland. As a result, sandstorms strike us now and then, especially in spring. We suffer a lot from sandstorms. We do hope that all people realize the terrible results if we don't pay enough attention to our environment. Instead of cutting trees down, we should take good care of the forests and plant more trees so as to improve our living conditions.
Yours sincerely,
All the students
Class One, Grade Six,
No. 1 Elementary School
先生或女士,
我們寫這封信是尋求幫助。我們的家鄉(xiāng)過去曾經(jīng)是一個美麗的地方,茂密的樹林和綠茵茵的草地到處可見。但是近來,人們?yōu)榱松w樓房和種莊稼,砍伐的樹越來越多。隨著時間的推移,整個樹林幾乎被毀,青山變成了荒山,結果是沙塵暴時時襲擊我們,尤其是在春天,沙塵暴給我們帶來很多困難。我們真切希望人們能夠意識到不注意保護環(huán)境的可怕結果。我們不應該伐樹,而應該愛護森林,多植樹,以便改變我們的生活環(huán)境。
您的真誠的
第一小學 六年級一班全體同學
