It will be too late
涉海英语翻译汉译英
1.海洋作为我们这个世界必不可少的部分,缓解气候变化带来的危害,为我们提供视频和许多现代药物。
但是海洋与人类之间的这种联系却一直没有引起人们的足够重视。
直到近来,由海洋保护生物学家Dr.Wallace带领的团队,从多学科角度,探索人类大脑于海洋之间的联系,提出一个新的研究方向-----神经保护。
这一研究引起了海洋科学方面的一场革命。
著名海洋学家Wall Broecker 博士,把深层水流动现象称为“海洋循环带”。
这种说法太过简单的描述了一个复杂的过程。
杜克大学的Susan Lozier 博士综合考虑各种证据后,推翻了我们对于海洋颠覆的观点。
无论这场革命结果如何,有一点毋庸置疑的,海洋紧密的将地球联系在一起。
我们呢要摒弃传统的看法,从一种新的视角来保护海洋。
The ocean, as an indispensable part of our world, buffers our weather, and provides us with food and many of modern medicines. However, we just ignored (didn’t give enough at tention to) the connectivity between the ocean and human sphere. Only until recently, have the team led by marine conservation biologist Dr. Wallace J. Nichols started to explore the connection between human minds and the ocean from multidisciplinary perspectives. They put forward a new research field— neuroconservation, which led to a revolution in marine science.Dr. Wally Broecker, a famous oceanographer, called the phenomenon of deep water circulation “Ocean Conveyor Belt”. This statement is an oversim plification of a complex process. Dr. Susan Lozier from Duke University overwhelmed the idea about ocean overturning after considering/weighing different pieces of evidence. Whatever the outcome would be, there is no doubt that the ocean holds our planet tightly. We have to abandon the old notion and try to protect the ocean from a new perspective.2.海洋是生命的发源地,因此,对海洋生态的研究不但有利于保护生物的生存环境,而且至直接关系到海洋生物资源的开发和利用。

His first post explored the use of English font (字体) on Hong Kong's road signs. “That post surprisingly received many likes and shares, so it got me thinking abo ut expanding my audience,” he recalled.In 2016, the enthusiast collected 50 Chinese characters from Hong Kong's road signs and outlined and uploaded the image to his Facebook account. A friend suggested turning this collection into a font. Yau saw it as a means to preserve a cherished aspect of Hong Kong's history. About twenty years ago, many of the city's signs featured handcrafted characters made by prisoners. However, as design technology adsances, these tradi tional signs are gradually being replaced,Following. yisits the remaining traditional road signs in the city, Yau's team had outliried approximatel y 500 characters. Yet, this fell short of the 7,000 Chinese characters required for practical use by those who us e Chinese daily. Faced with this limitation, the team began ercating new characters by mixing and matching existing components, adjusting line thickness, and modifying radicals (部首). For instance, when they couldn' t locate the Chinese character for“prison” on any existing signs, they designed one from scratch. This process英语测试题第2页 (共10页)involved extensive trial and error.After six years of dedicated effort, Yau found motivation in the constant enthusiasm of his follower s. “They’ ve been cagerly anticipating this project for as long as l' ve been working on it,” he remarked. “O ne even expressed that he had been waiting for this font since his first year of secondary school. Now, as a sixth grader, his wait is finally over.Yau is thrilled to witness how his followers will use this digital font.“I cannot own a road sign. but what I can do is digitize it,” Yau said. “I did not want to just document it but develop it into something we can use in daily life. This is a way to preserve Hong Kong's visual cultural memory.”4. What inspired Yau to design a font?A. His interest in road signs.B. His popularity with his fans.C. His desire to restore history.D. His passion for city planning.5. Why did Yau's team create new characters?A. To combine the components.B. To meet the need of daily use.C. To set limitation to the characters.D.

Determined and innovative.D. Ambitious and competitive.CThe field of anti-ageing medicine has exploded in recent years due to discoveries about the fundamen tal biology of ageing which are translated into experimental therapies (疗法). The latest fountain of youth to pour from the lab comes in the form of vaccines (疫苗) against age-related conditions—— cancer, heart dise ase, dementia and more. The first of these could be available by the end of the decade. All-purpose anti-agei ng injections are also in development.The upsides of such vaccines are clear. Anything that limits the impact of age-related conditions on people who live into old age— not to mention on the loved ones who often end up caring for them— has to be welcomed. They also promise to lessen effect on the increasingly societal and economic costs of these dis eases.英语测试题第3页 (共10页)But as with all anti-ageing interventions, there are potential downsides too. If millions of people livesignificantly longer, we risk a population explosion on a planet whose resources are already overstretched. If t he vaccines merely delay the beginning of age-related conditions, they will only postpone the burden on peopl e and society. And as Nobcl prizewinner Venki Ramakrishnan told us carlier this year. a long-lived society islikely to be an unmoving one. These are familiar fears. The common answer is that the goal is increased healt hspan. That means people living for longer. free from the diseases of old age, then suddenly declining anddying.We wońt know the-outcome until : the therapies have been widely used, at which point it will be too late to put the genie back in the bottle. But there is really no turning back anyway. If vaccines and other anti-ageing therapies work and are affordable, they will be used. Besides, nɔbody would argue that innovation s like antibiotics, vaccines and advanced diagnostics were a bad idea even though they marked the beginning of our era of age-related diseases. Similarly, we shouldn't fear life-saving medical advances on the basis of un intended consequences. If we can make lives longer and less painful, the downsides are a price worth paying.8. Why is the field of anti-ageing medicine growing rapidly?A. The biology of ageing is better applied.B. The trend of healthy lifestyle is rising.C. The demand for longer life is increasing.D. The number of elderly is rising globally.9. How do anti-ageing vaccines benefit society?A. By increasing the workforce.B. By curing people of diseases.C. By boosting economic growth.D. By reducing healthcare expense.10. What does the underlined phrase“put the genie back in the bottle” mean?A. To stop the process of ageing.B. To erase the impact of the therapics.C. To create a new medical breakthrough.D. To delay the development of technology.11. What is the best title for this article?A. Can Anti-Ageing Medicine Really Work?B. What Is the Risk of Anti-Ageing Medicine?C. How to Stay Young with Anti-Ageing Medicine?D. Is It Worthwhile Using Anti-Ageing Medicine?英语测试题第4页 (共10页)DFranz Katka (卡夫卡) died 100 years ago with his literary works unnoticed. He had instructed his friend Max Brod to burn his unpublished works. Brod did not: he believed Kafka to be a literary genius and publishe d his late friend's writing. In other words, Brod decided that Kafka's stories belonged not to the late author, but to the public.Brod's dilemma echoes today. People generate' more data than ever, which, unlike physical bodies, does not disappear. According to Carl Ohman, a Swedish political scientist. this condition makes the modern world“post-mortal”(死后的).“Living in the post-mortał condition is to constantly find oneself in the shoes of Max Brod", he observes.The digital era has reshaped humans’ relationship with the dead—— as seen in social media reminders for birthdays of dead individuals. Such reminders are to grow more common: Mr. Ohman's research has foun d that on Facebook the dead may well outnumber the living within 40 years. Advanced technology enables a continued relationship with the dead, such as Amazon's development of a feature for Alexa, virtual assistant, to speak in the voice of a lost relative. Startups have used data to make chatbots of the dead-to strengthen use rs’ commercial relationship, Mr. Ohman points out.At the root of Ohman's book The Aftorlife of Data is various complex philosophical questions. To whom do the dead's data belong? Are data something people create, or a digital analogue (类比) to a physical body? If data are a digital form of the body, what responsibilities does the living have? These are not merel y questions for individuals but for society. After all, historians often study the diaries of the dead. Their write rs may have preferred to keep them private, but the light that such documents can shine on humanity's past outweighs the late owner's wishes. Mr. Ohman: notes that data constitute“the biggest database of human behavioùr in the history of our species”. And he urges that the social media firms should think twice in terms of how they handle digital remains.12. What is the function of paragraph 1?A. To emphasize Kafka's literary talent.B. To lead to the discussion on data handling.C. To praise the act to publish Kafka's works.D. To write an introduction for Ohman's book.13. Why do people buy Alexa, the virtual assistant?A. To create a digital database.B. To control devices by voice.C. To access information quickly.D. To communicate with the dead.14. What problem will people face in post-mortal world according to the passage?A. How to manage the dead's data.B. How to realize the dead's wishes.C. How to protect the dead's privacy.D. How to restore the dead's. belongings.15. Which of the following will Mr. Ohman probably agree with?A. Data should be in the possession of individuals.B. Historians should control access to digital remains.C. Data's historical value is more important than the dead's will.D. Social media firms should be fined for misuse of digital remains.第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)在后面的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Later he used sharp bone or horn, metal knives and more recently, rubber and plastic. And that was where we stuck, in surgical instrument terms, for many years. In the 1960s a new tool was developed, one which was, first of all, to be of great practical use to the armed forces and industry, but which was also, in time, to revolutionize the art and science of surgery.The tool is the laser and it is being used by more and more surgeons all over the world, for a very large number of **plaints. The word laser means: Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Light. As we all know, light is hot; any source of light ——from the sun itself down to a humble match burning ——will give warmth. But light is usually spread out over a wide area. The light in a laser beam, however, is concentrated. This means that a light with no more power than that produced by an ordinary electric light bulb becomes intensely strong as it is concentrated to a pinpoint-sized beam.Experiments with these pinpoint beams showed researchers that different energy sources produce beams that have a particular effect on certain living cells. It is now possible for eye surgeons to operate on the back of the human eye without harming the front of the eye, simply by passing a laser beam right through the eyeball. No knives, no stitches (刀口缝合), no unwanted damage ——a true surgical wonder.Operations which once left patients exhausted and in need of long periods of recovery time now leave them feeling relaxed **fortable. So much more difficult operations can now be tried.The rapid development of laser techniques in the past ten years has made it clear that the future is likely to be very exciting. Perhaps some cancers will be treated with laser in a way that makes surgery not only safer but more effective. Altogether, tomorrow may see more and more **ing to light on the diseases which can be treated medically.21. Up until the 1960s the instruments used to perform surgical operations were ______.A. fashionableB. extraordinaryC. specialD. basic22. After the development of the laser in the 1960s, we find that ______.A. medical help became available for industrial workers.B. the study of art went through a complete revolution.C. more and more surgeons began using surgical instruments.D. man's whole approach to surgery **pletely23. The laser beam is so strong because ______.A. it is composed of a concentrated beam of lightB. its heat is increased by the heat of the sunC. it can be plugged into an ordinary light fittingD. it sends out heat in many different directions24. Surgeons can now carry out operations which ______.A. can be performed successfully only on the human eyeB. result in long periods of recovery time for patientsC. are made much **plicated by using the laser beamD. result in very little damage to the patients themselves25. The rapid development of laser techniques has meant that ______.A. in another ten years we shall be able to cure cancerB. surgery is likely to improve considerablyC. we shall be able to treat all the diseases we suffer fromD. we are now able to treat most forms of cancerPassage TwoIn 1885 Owen Wister (1850~1938) recorded that "it won't be a century before the West is simply the true America, with thought, type, and life of its own" and he wanted "to be the hand that once, for all, chronicled and laid bare the virtues and the vices of this extraordinary phase of American social progress." He never became that self-envisioned Tolstoi of the old West, but in 1902 The Virginian was published. It won instant success and skyrocketed its author to fame. It is still the most popular "Western" novel ever published and the master design for the fiction of the Wild West.The Virginian established a literary form, a formula popularly known as "horse opera", whose conventions, cliches, and values have reappeared in novels and short stories, in movies and television serials, ever since. The romantic cowboy is the hero and gentleman, one of those "good men in the humbler walks of life", who sees through shams, defends justice and a lady's honor, shoots it out with the villain and conquers evil. Because of The Virginian, Wister created a character who is the original type for the Western folk hero. He represents the embodiment of certain American ideals--a man who is equal to all occasions, who shows independence of action, a man who keeps his word who is "a broad-guage fellow living among narrow-guage folk". But the literary device and cowboy code which Wister established dictated that the hero must kill the bad man. This necessity for sanctioning murder and romanticizing of the cowboy as a gentleman prohibited The Virginian and the genre it created from becoming serious fiction, or even an authentic product of the western experience. Instead of achieving his ambition, therefore, Wister gave us a sort of American folk epic, the cowboy story.26. Owen Wister believed ______.A. the way of life in the West in 1885 was a passing phaseB. the cowboy in 1885 symbolized the typical American male.C. the West would be always isolated from the rest of the country by its moral code.D. none of thes27. The reference to Wister as a self-envisioned Tolstoi implies that ______.A. The Virginian is as great a novel as War and PeaceB. Wister underestimated himself as an authorC. Wister wanted to be a writer of light novelsD. as Tolstoi had laid bare the virtues and vices of Russian society, so Wister would do for the society of the American West.28. Stylistically, The Virginian is noted for the fact that it ______.A. was written according to a pre-established formula.B. established the formula known as "horse opera".C. followed the literary conventions of the day.D. abandoned American conventions in favor of foreign ones.'29. The popularity which was accorded The Virginian indicates that Wister ______.A. realized his stated ambitionB. gave us an authentic account of the western experienceC. became the American TolstoiD. had written an account of the cowboy which appealed to American aspirations30. The author of the article believes that ______.A. The Virginian did not deserve the success it wonB. Wister made a definite contribution to American literatureC. Wister was a hackD. cowboy stories should be considered serious fictionPassage Three**es quickly in the mountains. Each winter holiday makers are caught unawares as they happily ski away from the fixed runs, little realizing that a small avalanche can send them crashing in a bone-breaking fall down the slope and leave them buried under tons of crisp white snow. There are lots of theories about how to avoid disaster when hit by an avalanche. Practice is normally less cheerful.The snow in the Salzburg of Austria where a recent disaster took place was typical avalanche material: For several days before the incident I had skied locally. Early winter snow was wearing thin and covered with ice. On top of that new, warmer flakes were gently falling to produce a dangerous carpet. To the skier who enjoys unmarked slopes it is tempting stuff, deep new power snow on a hard base--the skiing that dreams are made of And sometimes nightmares.Snow falls in sections like a cake. Different sections have different densities because of the temperatures at the time of the fall and in the weeks afterwards. **e when any particular section is too thick and not sticking to the section beneath. The snow of the past few weeks had been falling in rather higher temperatures than those of December and early January. The result of these conditions is that even a slight increase in the temperatures sends a thin stream of water between the new snow and the old. Then the new snow simply slides off the mountain.Such slides are not unexpected. Local citizens know the slopes which tend to avalanche and the weather in which such slides are likely. Traps are set to catch the snow or prevent it slipping; bombs are placed and exploded from time to time to set off small avalanches before a big one hastime to build up; and above all, skiers are warned not to ski in danger areas.In spite of this, avalanches happen in unexpected areas and, of course, skiers ignore the warnings. The **fort to recreational skiers, however, is that avalanche incidents on the marked ski slopes are quite rare. No ski resort wants the image of being a death trap.31.

It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons, it may be fairly stated that the Englishman has developed many attitudes and habits which distinguish him from other nationalities.Broadly speaking, the Englishman is a quiet, shy, reserved person who is fully relaxed only among people he knows well. In the presence of strangers or foreigners she often seems inhibited,even embarrassed. You have only to witness a city train any morning or evening to see the truth of this. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or having a light sleep in a corner; no one speaks. In fact, to do so would seem most unusual. An Englishman, pretending to be giving advice to overseas visitors, once suggested, "On entering a railway carriage shake hands with all the passengers." Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which, if broken, makes the person immediately suspect.In many parts of the world it is quite normal to show openly extremes of enthusiasm, emotion, excitement, etc, often accompanied by appropriate gestures. The Englishman is somewhat different. Of course, an Englishman feels no less deeply than any other nationality, but he tends to display his feelings far less. This is reflected in his use of language. Imagine a **menting on the great beauty of a young girl. Whereas a more emotional man might describe her as "an excellent jewel", "extremely beautiful", "precious", the Englishman will flatly state "Urn, she's all right". An Englishman who has seen a highly successful and enjoyable film recommends it to a friend by commenting, "It's not bad, you know," or on seeing very unusual scenery he might convey his pleasure by saying, "Nice, yes, very nice." The overseas visitor must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest and involvement; he must realize that "all right", "not had", and "nice", very often have the sense of "first- class", "excellent", "beautiful". This special use of language, **mon in England, is known as restrained statement.36. From the passage people can infer that the English are different from other nationalities mainly in ______.A. tasteB. characterC. the principle of behaviorD. all aspects37. If one doesn't want to be suspected in public, he had better ______.A. behave relaxedB. shake hands with all people he meetsC. talk with othersD. keep quiet38. The word "inhibited" most nearly means ______.A. friendlyB. politeC. afraidD. restrained39. According to the passage, the Englishman ______.A. has less feelings than other nationalitiesB. has emotions as deep as any other nationalitiesC. expresses emotion by use of his languageD. likes to have a joke with foreign visitors40. An Englishman's saying "all right" usually has the sense of ______.A. "not bad"B. "quite right"C. "fairly good"D. "very good"Part Ⅲ TranslationDirections: Translate the following part into Chinese.1. Historically, Jeep's reputation as a go-anywhere vehicle dates back to the Second World War when the original Jeeps, supplied by the **pany, carried Allied forces through the Pacific and Europe.The Macquarie Dictionary of Motoring says the name Jeep stemmed from the United States Army's decision to call the vehicle GP, for General Purpose vehicle. The name was eventually corrupted to "jeep," from the pronunciation of the letters GP, and became a trademark owned by the **pany.Jeep became part of Chrysler in 1988 and **pany has since spent a lot of money to revitalize the Jeep production facilities, and to increase the number and style of models available. Chrysler says the Jeep's wartime reputation and rugged image undoubtedly helped it to carve out a new role in peacetime as a recreational vehicle. It says the Jeep created the original market for recreational, off-road vehicles using the powerful four-wheel drive traction (**mercially as 4 WD) for which the army jeep was famous.Part Ⅳ WritingDirections: For this part, you are required to write a composition of about 200 words on the topic How To Solve The Energy Problem.

爱丽丝漫游仙境黑布林阅读英文版全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1Alice's Adventures in the Bizzare Land of the Black KingOne sunny afternoon, I was feeling really bored. I had nothing to do and nowhere to go. My sister was reading a big book, but it didn't have any pictures or games or anything fun like that. It was just a bunch of words. Yawn!I was starting to drift off to sleep when suddenly a funny little white rabbit ran by! This rabbit was very peculiar because it was wearing a fancy waistcoat and checking its pocket watch, murmuring "Oh dear, I'm late, I'm late!" Well, you don't see that every day!Being the curious young girl that I am, I simply had to follow the rabbit and see where it was going. I chased it into a rabbit hole and fell...fell...fell down a very deep and bizarre hole. It felt like I was falling forever!Finally, I landed with a big 'thump' in a hallway lined with doors. The little rabbit was now nowhere to be seen. I tried toopen the doors, but they were all locked. On a little glass table, there was a key that opened a tiny door just big enough for me to walk through. But when I tried, I realized I was too big to fit!Just then, I noticed a bottle labeled "DRINK ME." Not sure what it contained, but I was thirsty so I drank it all down. Suddenly, I started shrinking...smaller...and smaller...until I was just the right size to go through the little door!On the other side was themost wonderfully strange place I had ever seen. Everything seemed to be living - the trees, the flowers, even the river! A smiling Cheshire cat appeared out of nowhere andStartedToTalkToMe in rhymes. He told me I had entered Wonderland and should visit the March Hare for directions to the kingdom of the dreaded Black King.The March Hare was having a never-ending tea party with friends like the Dormouse. They were all quite rude, shouting and throwing things. The March Hare did tell me I should attend the trial being held by the King of Hearts. So I went along my way, passing peculiar characters like Tweedledee, Tweedledum, the Caterpillar, and the Duchess with her howling baby that turned into a pig!Finally, I arrived at the bizarre court of the King of Hearts. The strangest trial was underway. The Knave of Hearts wasaccused of stealing the King's tarts, but there wasn't any proof. Everyone was acting silly, like a bunch of little kids. There were cards acting as soldiers, stamping their feet and shouting nonsense.The rudest one was the terrifying Black King. He was as tall as a house with a big bushy beard and a booming voice like thunder. Whenever he spoke, everyone shuttered in fear."SILENCE!" the Black King roared like a lion. "This is my court and I'll have order!""But your majesty, there's no evidence against my poor Knave!" cried the Queen of Hearts. "He'd never steal a thing!""ENOUGH! Off with his head!" bellowed the King, his face turning as red as a tomato.Well this made the Queen even more furious. She started beating him over the head with a fan, screaming "You man篇2The Black Knight of WonderlandAlice was having the most peculiar dream. She had fallen down a rabbit hole and ended up in a strange land called Wonderland. Everything and everyone she met seemed to bequite mad and nonsensical. But one of the most memorable encounters was with the fearsome Black Knight.Alice was wandering through the woods of Wonderland when she saw a strange figure in the distance. As she drew nearer, she could make out that it was a knight dressed in black armor from head to toe. He was riding a powerful black horse and holding a large club in his hand."I hope he is friendly," thought Alice. But the Black Knight's face looked quite fierce behind his helmet's visor.Suddenly, the Knight caught sight of Alice and wheeled his horse around, charging straight towards her! Alice let out a little shriek of surprise. The Black Knight raised his club menacingly as he thundered closer and closer.Just in time, Alice cried out, "Please sir knight, I mean you no harm! I'm just a little girl lost in these woods." The Knight pulled hard on his horse's reins, bringing the mighty steed to a halt just a few feet from Alice. She stared up at the imposing figure towering above her on his horse.In a deep, gruff voice, the Black Knight bellowed, "What? A little girl, you say? Well, I shall not be made a fool of by the likesof you! Have at thee!" And with that, he swung his massive club straight at Alice's head!Alice ducked just in time, the club whooshing over her. "Sir Knight, please! I meant no offense!" she pleaded. But the Black Knight merely growled and swung his club again and again, each time Alice scrambling to dodge the blows."You are behaving most rudely!" Alice scolded between swings of the club. "Is that any way for a knight to act? I thought knights were supposed to be noble and chivalrous!"The Black Knight paused for a moment, seeming to consider her words. But then he growled, "Chivalry? Bah! I have no use for such foolish notions!" And he renewed his attack, swinging the club with all his might. Alice was starting to tire from all the dodging and ducking."Please sir, I beg of you! Let us settle this dispute through words rather than violence!" Alice cried desperately. The Black Knight grunted dismissively, taking another swing.But then an idea struck Alice. "Sir Knight, I challenge you to a battle of wits instead of weapons!"The Black Knight paused again, lowering his club slightly. "A battle of wits, you say? Very well, I shall entertain this notion. State your challenge, girl."Alice thought quickly. "Why, a simple riddle of course! If I can pose a riddle that you cannot answer, you must promise to let me go unharmed."The Black Knight let out a boisterous laugh. "Ha! Very well, I accept your foolish challenge. But if you fail, I will not hesitate to smash you with my club!"Alice gulped but tried to look brave. "The riddle is this: What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs in the afternoon, and three legs in the evening?"The Black Knight furrowed his brow behind his visor, considering Alice's riddle carefully. After a few moments, he gripped his club tighter and growled, "Some kind of foul trickery, no doubt! I've had enough of these games!" And he reared back, preparing to swing his club mightily at the helpless Alice.Just then, a piping voice called out from nearby, "It's a human, Your Blackness! A baby crawls on all fours, a grown person walks on two legs, and an elderly person uses a cane - three legs in the evening of life!"Alice and the Knight both turned to see none other than the Messenger from the King and Queen of Hearts. He bowed low before the fierce knight.篇3Alice in the Amazing Adventures of Wonderland!One of my favorite stories is Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. It's about a girl named Alice who falls down a rabbit hole into a magical world called Wonderland. The chapter I want to tell you about is called "A Caucus-Race and a Long Tale." It's really funny and exciting!Alice is wandering through the weird woods of Wonderland feeling very bored and sleepy. She sees a path and decides to follow it. Along the way, she passes a little house about four feet high. Outside, a fat little man is sitting at a table screaming "No more mail! No more sorting!"Alice knocks at the door but no one answers. So she walks around to the window and peers inside. There are copies of the same letter scattered everywhere! The man keeps shouting and throwing letters around like crazy.Alice opens the little window and leans inside to see what all the fuss is about. The little man flies into a rage, thinking Alice is a serpent trying to attack him. But when篇4Alice's Adventures with the Black KingOne sunny day, Alice was feeling very bored and sleepy. She was sitting by her sister on the bank of a river when suddenly a White Rabbit ran past, muttering "Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!" This struck Alice as very odd because she had never before seen a rabbit that could talk.Filled with curiosity, Alice decided to follow the strange White Rabbit down the rabbit hole. She tumbled down, down, down into a curious hallway with many locked doors. Alice came upon a little table with a tiny golden key that unlocked a door too small for her to fit through. How puzzling!Alice spotted a bottle labelled "DRINK ME" and decided to risk it, thinking it may cause her to shrink. One sip and she began to shrink rapidly until she was just the right size to go through the little door. But when she went through, she found herself in a lovely garden surrounded by tall trees.As Alice wandered through the garden, she came upon a mushroom about her height with a thick blue caterpillar sitting on top, smoking a hookah pipe. The caterpillar seemed quite rude, asking her "Who are you?" When Alice admitted she didn't know, the caterpillar told her unhelpfully "You ought to know who you are!"Alice soon realized that by eating different sides of the mushroom, she could shrink down tiny or grow herself tall. How useful! She met many strange creatures, including a Duchess with a grinning Cheshire Cat nearby, a Cook tossing baby pigs around, and the Mock Turtle and Gryphon telling their sad stories.Eventually, Alice wandered into the garden of live playing cards painting the white roses red for the impatient Queen of Hearts. The Queen was a foul-tempered monarch who shouted "Off with their heads!" at every little mistake. Alice soon found herself being ordered about and made to join a bizarre game of croquet using live flamingos for mallets and hedgehogs for croquet balls!When the Cheshire Cat arrived grinning from ear to ear, the Queen immediately ordered "Off with his head!" But the cat was able to magically make his body disappear bit by bit until onlyhis mischievous smile remained, floating in midair. The cat taunted the Queen, saying "You can't possibly cut off my head unless I have a body to go with it!"The frustrated Queen called for a trial and Alice was forced to appear as a witness. Acting as judges were the ruthless King of Hearts and the kindly White Rabbit. To Alice's dismay, they brought forth a rather unpleasant fellow named the Black King as the accused.The Black King looked quite sinister with his piercing eyes and stern expression. He wore a black crown and robe decorated with hearts. Alice couldn't understand why the courtroom burst into applause when the Black King entered. Perhaps his subjects feared disagreeing with him.When the Queen called "Silence in the court!", everyone hushed immediately. The White Rabbit meekly read the ridiculous accusations against the Black King, including "murdering all the time" and "beating his wife with a poker." Alice gasped at the absurd charges. The Black King didn't deny the claims, but simply frowned and insisted "I didn't do it."All sorts of strange witnesses took the stand, babbling nonsense statements that made no sense. Even a pack of playing cards was called to testify! Alice tried to follow along but feltmore bewildered by the minute. The Queen seemed determined to find the Black King guilty no matter what.Just when Alice thought the trial couldn't get any madder, the Queen roared at her, "Have you anything to say for yourself?" Alice tried to protest that she didn't know the first thing about the silly case, but her words were twisted into confusing logic. Frustrated, Alice declared "You're nothing but a pack of cards!"At this, the infuriated court of card guards rushed at poor Alice. She had no choice but to run away as quickly as possible. As Alice raced through the garden, the strange creatures she met shrank down to Playing card size and gave chase. The Gryphon, Caterpillar, Cheshire Cat, and more all pursued her, shouting taunts and orders to halt.Too afraid to stop, Alice kept running until suddenly she woke up with her sister gently brushing stray leaves off her face. Alice's unbelievable adventure through Wonderland had only been a peculiar dream after all! But what an imagination she had...篇5Alice's Curious Adventure with the Bread-and-ButterfliesAlice was a curious young girl who loved having adventures and exploring new places. One sunny afternoon, she was sitting by a riverbank feeling rather bored when she spotted a White Rabbit wearing a waistcoat and checking his pocket watch. "How strange!" thought Alice. She had never seen a rabbit with a watch before.Filled with curiosity, Alice followed the peculiar Rabbit down a rabbit hole and found herself tumbling into a magical world called Wonderland. After an incredible shrinking and growing episode with a bottle labelled "DRINK ME", Alice finally became the right size to fit through a tiny door and enter a beautiful garden.In the garden, Alice came across some very odd creatures indeed. First, she met a Footman who was painting white roses red because the Queen of Hearts hated white roses and would behead anyone who planted them. Then she saw a Fat Old Sheep sitting on a trunk surrounded by animals holding umbrellas over their heads.But the strangest sight of all were the Bread-and-Butterflies! These were curious creatures with crisp buttery wings and crumbly bread bodies. Some had slices of toast for heads whileothers had flaky croissant antennas. They fluttered about, chirping in crumbly little voices."Why, you're Bread-and-Butter-flies!" exclaimed Alice in delight. "I've never seen anything like you before."The largest Bread-and-Butterflies, who seemed to be their leader with his slice of rye bread head, addressed Alice. "That's because we only exist in Wonderland, Miss. We're quite unique, you know.""Indeed you are!" said Alice. "Might I ask how you came to exist?""Well you see," began the rye bread leader, "We started out as ordinary bread loaves, just waiting to be sliced and buttered. But then one day, the Queen of Hearts got dreadfully hungry and bit right into one of us without bothering to slice or butter first!""How rude!" cried Alice.The bread leader nodded somberly. "Indeed. Well, that careless, unbuttered bite brought us to life asBread-and-Butterflies. The Queen has a powerful hunger, you see, so powerful it can animate her food!"Just then, a shrill voice rang out "Off with their crusts! Off with their crusts!"Alice turned to see the Queen of Hearts herself striding into the garden, looking quite hungry and irritable. All theBread-and-Butterflies scattered in a panic, their crispy wings beating rapidly as they tried to flutter away."Wait!" cried Alice. "Please don't eat them, Your Majesty. They're alive and can talk!""Stuff and nonsense!" bellowed the Queen. "They're nothing but snacks. Guards! Off with that girl's head for consorting with bread creatures!"With that, the Queen's card soldiers surrounded poor Alice, who backed away in fright. Desperate to save her new scone and sourdough friends, Alice quickly grabbed the rye bread leader."Please Mr. Bread-and-Butterfly," she pleaded, "Teach me how to fly like you so I can escape the Queen!"The resourceful rye bread leader ripped off a bit of his crust and crumbled it into Alice's hand. "Eat this enchanted crust, but don't chew! It will grant you bread wings for a short while."Alice didn't hesitate. She tossed the crust into her mouth and, miraculously, a pair of flaky, crispy wings sprouted from her back! With a few frantic flaps, she rose up into the sky just as the card soldiers were about to seize her."You there! Come back at once!" screamed the Queen, shaking her fist up at the flying Alice. But it was no use, for Alice was soaring high above the reach of the cards."Thank you, Mr. Rye Bread!" she called down happily to the Bread-and-Butterflies scattering below. "I shan't forget this experience!"And with that, Alice flapped her magical bread wings and flew off over the horizon of Wonderland, safe from the clutches of the ravenous Queen of Hearts. She had found friendship in some very unlikely baked goods and knew she would cherish this curious adventure forever.When at last Alice's bread wings crumbled away, she found herself deposited back in the real world by the riverbank, just as she had been before following the White Rabbit. She smiled to herself, stroking the remaining buttery crumbs on her fingers. Perhaps someday she would dream up another bout of silliness and return to the whimsical realm of Wonderland once more.篇6Alice's Adventures with the Black PuddingOne sunny morning, Alice was feeling rather bored. She had finished all her lessons and had nothing to do. "I wish something exciting would happen," she said with a sigh.Just then, a White Rabbit wearing a waistcoat and carrying a pocket watch scurried past her. "Oh my ears and whiskers! I'm late, I'm late for a very important date!" he cried.Alice had never seen a talking rabbit before. Filled with curiosity, she jumped up and hurried after him down a large rabbit hole. She tumbled and twisted, falling deeper and deeper until finally she landed with a soft thump on a pile of dried leaves.Looking around, Alice found herself in a long hallway with doors of all shapes and sizes. The only unlocked door was much too small for her to fit through. On a nearby table, she spotted a little golden key that just might unlock it. But when she tried, she was still too big."Oh, how I wish I could shrink down!" Alice exclaimed. Then she noticed a little bottle labeled "DRINK ME" sitting on the table. Hoping it might help her shrink, Alice took a sip. Immediately, she began growing smaller and smaller until she was only ten inches tall! She was finally the right size to go through the tiny door.Alice unlocked the door and stepped through into the most wondrous place. It was a beautiful garden filled with bright flowers and singing birds. At the center was a long table set for a grand tea party with a large blackish-brown pudding sitting in the middle."Oh goody, a party! And something delicious to eat," said Alice, her tummy rumbling. She hurried over to take a seat, but the pudding suddenly grew a face and two stubby arms!"Oi! Who invited you to this party, missy?" grumbled the Pudding in a deep, gravelly voice. "The name's Black Pudding, and this is a very important un-birthday party for me and me mates."Alice gasped. "A talking pudding? Well I never!"Just then, the Mad Hatter, March Hare, and Dormouse all arrived dressed in their finest tea party attire. "You're just in time to meet our guest of honor!" cried the Hatter merrily."Indeed, indeed! Hip hip hooray for Mr. Black Pudding!" cheered the March Hare, flinging teacups everywhere.The Dormouse simply snoozed away, snoring loudly with teaspoon in hand."Enough of this folly!" bellowed the Pudding. "Let's just tuck in and eat already. I'll start with those delicious-looking biscuits over there."With that, the Pudding rolled himself over to a plate of cookies, opening his mouth wide to take a big bite. But before he could, the plate sprouted feet and scampered away!"I say, that's hardly fair sport!" huffed the Pudding, rolling after the plate which kept dancing just out of reach. The Mad Hatter and March Hare doubled over in laughter at the silly sight.Alice couldn't help but giggle too. She'd never seen a grumpier, hungrier pudding in all her life! Just then, the Cheshire Cat appeared, grinning from ear to ear."Having trouble catching your snack, are you Puddy?" he teased. "Here, allow me."With a wave of his paw, the Cheshire Cat made another plate of cookies appear - this time with arms and legs of their own! They began skipping in a circle around the Pudding, just out of his grasp."Catch me if you can, Rolly Polly!" they taunted in little singing voices."Drat and double drat!" fumed the Pudding, bouncing and rolling trying to corner one of the sly cookie scouts.The harder he tried, the more the friends laughed and cheered. Even Alice was overcome with giggles watching the portly Pudding huff and puff.At last, exhausted, the Pudding plopped down in defeat. "Oh, very well. You've had your fun. But now I really must insist on some refreshments!""As you wish, your Puddingship!" The Cheshire Cat bowed and made the laughing cookies disappear in a puff of smoke, replacing them with a fresh plate of biscuits. The Pudding wasted no time gobbling them up greedily.When he finished, he let out a deep, contented, "Ahhhhh! Now that really hit the spot."The Mad Hatter raised his teacup. "A toast! To our guest of honor, the one and only Mr. Black Pudding. The jolliest, plumpest, tastiest pudding in all of Wonderland!""Here, here!" they all cheered, even Alice.And so, fueled by sweets and friendship, the un-birthday party for the Black Pudding continued merrily into the night,filled with more delicious eats, delirious fun, and one very hungry (but happily fed) guest of honor.The End。
我们应该保护地球英语
我们应该保护地球英语We should protect the earthThe earth is like our mother. She gives us so much. She gives us a place to live, food to eat, and beautiful scenery to enjoy. Think about it, if our mother gets sick, what will happen to us? We can't just keep taking from her without giving anything back.There are so many things on this earth that make our lives wonderful. The fresh air we breathe every day is like a gentle caress. It fills our lungs and gives us the energy to run, jump, and play. But now, in some places, the air is not so fresh anymore. It's like the earth is coughing because of the pollution we create. There are big factories that puff out black smoke, and cars that release harmful gases. This is just like we are covering the earth's nose and mouth, making it hard for her to breathe.The water on the earth is like her lifeblood. Rivers, lakes, and oceans are all important parts of her. We rely on water for drinking, washing, and so many other things. But look at what we've done to the water. Some rivers are full of garbage and chemicals. It's like we are pouring poison into the earth's veins. How can she stay healthy like this? We've seen pictures of sea animals getting trapped in plastic waste. It's so sad. It's as if the earth is crying out in pain because of what we've done to her water.The forests are like the earth's green clothes. They not only look beautiful but also play a very important role. Trees can absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, which is like they are the earth's little helpers for breathing. But people keep cutting down trees. It's like we are tearing off the earth's clothes piece by piece. Without these green clothes, the earth will be exposed to more disasters.We can't keep on like this. Protecting the earth is not something that someone else should do. It's something that each and every one of us has to take part in. If we all throw a little less garbage, use a little less energy, and plant a few more trees, it will make a big difference.Protecting the earth is not that hard. It can start from small things in our daily lives. For instance, we can bring our own bags when we go shopping instead of using plastic bags. This simple action can reduce a lot of plastic waste. It's like we are giving the earth a little gift. We can also turn off the lights when we leave a room. It's like we are saving the earth's energy for it to use in other important places.We all love our homes, right? Well, the earth is our biggest home. If we don't protect our home, where can we go? There is no other place for us in the universe that we know of right now. So we have to take good care of this home.We should all realize that the earth is precious. It's not something that we can just use up and throw away. It's a living, breathing entity that has given us so much. We need to give back to it. We need to be the protectors of the earth, not the destroyers. If we keep harming the earth, one day it will be too late to make things right. So let's start now, let's do our part to protect the earth. Because if we don't, who will?In the end, protecting the earth is the right thing to do. It's something that benefits us all and also something that we owe to the earth itself.。

It will be too late
Ten years ago, my grandpa was dead in spring. At that time, I was in junior high school, and to me, death is a strange word.
In 2003, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome(SARS) was spreading the whole world. Watching the news reporting the number of deaths in the world, all of us worried and were afraid of the one. We, students, had to stop our study and went back our homes. One day, my grandpa was sick, lying in his bed. We worried more and decided to send him to the local hospital. But he refused. We knew ,at the special time,he was afraid of being locked lonely by the hospital. He said he was staying at home until he was dead. Two days later, grandpa picked up and said he was feeling better, and we all thought so too. The other day, my dear grandpa drank lots of milk which is his favorites and rambled about his youth. While at evening, he fell asleep severely. And he died. That day, I didn’t cry. I just saw my grandpa lying there so quietly, just like sleeping. I thought he wanted to slee p for a while. I didn’t kn ow what death is meaning.
Two months later, backing to school, I missed my dear grandpa and I wanted to talk to him very much. When I called my family, I really realized my grandpa disappeared forever. I couldn’t talk to him, listen to him, and I didn’t embra ce him anymore. Death means disappearing forever. The living had to experienced pain of missing. And we only rely on our memories to miss our lovers.
Men fear death, as children fear to go in the dark. So facing the death, men would cry painfully. They know what it is. Death takes anything away. So when we are alive, we should seize every minute. We should have cried and laughed less while watching television, and more while watching life. Otherwise it will be too late.。
