There once was a little boy who had a very bad temper. When he couldn't get the t oy he liked, he would be angry with his mother, and even talk back to her.
One day, his father gave him a bag of nails(钉子) and told him that each time he lost his patience, he should nail (钉) a nail into the wall behind the door. On the first day, the boy nailed 37 nails into the wall behind the door. It was difficult for him to nail the nails into the wall, because the wall was hard.

He discovered that it was easier to control his temper than to nail nails into the wall.
A few weeks later, the boy could control his temper very well for the whole day. So his father suggested that he should remove a nail each day if he could control his temper. After hundreds of days, there were no more nails for the boy to remove from the wall. So the boy told his father happily that he had removed all the nails.
His father took him by the hand and led him to the door. He told his son, “You have worked hard, my son, but look at all these holes in the wall. They will never disappear. Each time you lose your temper, you leave scars (伤痕) in our hearts, just like the ones you see here." The boy felt sorry and said, “Dad, I will never do that again. Thank you!"

These days the environment of the earth is becoming worse and worse, but some countries are not doing anything to solve this problem. So we must try to make all countries to sign environmental agreements.
Many factories find that it is difficult and that it will cost a lot of money to change their ways of production. They are still polluting the air, rivers, lakes and oceans. They are not taking any actions to stop climate change. As a result, the rivers are becoming dirty and millions of people have no clean water to drink. The air in big cities isn't clean enough for people to breathe. A lot of people die because of these bad conditions (状况). So we all have a duty to stop such situations from continuing. It is important for us to take more care of the earth. We must save every drop of water and produce as little waste as we can. We must make the factories and large companies protect the environment. If we fail to do so, the earth will be too dry and too dirty for people to live on. Predictions in some science fiction stories tell us what will happen some day in the future. The weather will become too hot. Forests will disappear. Rivers and lakes will dry up. Wars and hunger will be everywhere. At that time most human beings will die and only a few will move to other planets (星球) to live on. I don't believe that is what we wish to see.
