Rainforests are being cut and burned from Brazil to Indonesia at such a rate that they If the present rate of deforestation is allowed to continue, the consequences forthe earth will be We shall see a massive upsetting of ecosystems, very largeincreases in soil erosion, increases in flooding and in drought,changes in rainfallpatterns and regional, quite possibly global, changes in We shall also probablylose many rare plant and animal 如果听任现在的热带雨林被毁掉的百分比继续发展下去,给整个地球所带来的后果将是十分严重的。我们将会看到(1)各种生态系统的平衡均遭到大规模的破坏;(2)水土流失现象大规模地增加了; (3)水灾和旱灾大规模增加了;(4) 降雨的方式改变了;(5)地区性的气候改变,甚至完全可能导致全球性气候的改变。我们也许会永远失去很多种珍稀的植物和动物。Plant species are not the only forms of life threatened with extinction in Rare birds and animals that cannot be found anywhere else in the world havebeen disappearing at the rate of one a year since the turn of the 各种植物在热带雨林中并不是受到灭种威胁的的生物。世界上除了热带雨林以外,在其他任何地方都找不到的珍稀鸟类和珍稀动物,在这世纪交替的时候正在以每年消失一种的速度逐渐灭绝。In the face of all these facts, it seems senseless for countries to continuedestroying their However, the problem is not so The countries inwhich the rainforests are located are all quite poor and One of them,Brazil,has a population of 140 million,about half of whom are living in The governments in these countries are usually also too weak to stop largecompanies and powerful individuals from destroying the They have no money,so when the poor whom they cannot feed find work cutting down trees or burning forest land,the governments often have no choice but to turn a blind Moreover,for many ofthese countries,the valuable timber and other resources found in the rainforests arealso a very important source of foreign exchange, which they badly need to pay off theirforeign debts and purchase foreign equipment and other 面对这一切事实,这些国家还在继续毁灭他们的热带雨林,这令人觉得他们简直太麻木不仁了。但是,这个问题并不是很简单的。地处于热带雨林的那些国家都相当贫穷而且人口都相当过剩。热带雨林国家之一,巴西,人口有一亿四千万人。其中约有半数人生活在绝对贫困当中。这些国家的政府通常也都是十分软弱的,以致不能制止一些大公司或有权有势的人毁坏热带雨林的行为。那些国家的政府都没有钱,所以当政府养活不起的那些穷人,找到了砍树或在森林里烧树开荒的工作时,政府别无选择,只好睁一只眼闭一只眼。况且,对这些国家中的有些国家来说,热带雨林中的珍贵木材和其他资源也是他们所急需换取外汇的很重要的资源,以便用来偿还外债和用来购买外国的设备和其他物资。
Trees Are Important to Use Trees are very useful to They provide us with wood and other They give us shade and they help to prevent drought and Unfortunately, in many parts of our country, people haven't realized the importance of They cut them down at They are usually too lazy or too careless to plant and look after new As a result, the forests continue to Where there are no trees the rain falls on the surface, causing floods, and carries away with the rich topsoil, in which crops grow so When all the topsoil is gone, nothing remains but worthless The big floods of 1998, in parts of China, have already taught us a good So every one of us must love trees, protect forests, and keep on planting trees each year
