休閑對話：貧窮、污染讓我們黯然淚下

Ann: What’s the matter with the earth?

這個地球是怎么了?

Lily: What’s wrong?

怎么啦?

Ann: Look at these pictures, don’t you feel hopeless about this world?

看這些圖片，難道你不會對這個世界絕望嗎?

Lily: Oh my god. Where do these pictures come from?

哦，天啊。這些圖片是哪里來的?

Ann: I searched on the Internet and found them.

我上網(wǎng)看到的。

Lily: Look, these poor children were walking in the polluted water to find something valued. And that guy was washing clothes in such a disgusting river?

看，這些貧窮的孩子走在被污染的水當(dāng)中去尋找一些有價值的東西。然后是這個家伙，在這樣一條令人惡心的河里洗衣服。

Ann: They have no choice if they want to live.

如果想活下去，他們沒選擇啊。

Lily: Yeah, I know, I just feel sorry for them.

是啊，我知道，但是對他們很抱歉。

Ann: What we can do is to protect our environment. Do not talk here and do nothing. We should make sure what we can do in our daily life, such as what can buy and what should be boycotted.

我們該做的是怎么保護(hù)我們的環(huán)境。別在這里說而什么都不做。我們應(yīng)該知道在日常生活當(dāng)中，我們能做什么，比如說什么東西可以買，什么東西要抵制。

Lily: That’s true. Someone always talk loudly and do nothing for the environment.

恩，一些人總是講的很大聲，卻無所為。
