[00:01.30]易考范文十六
[00:04.58]As can be seen in the vivid picture,
[00:08.85]a man presents a birthday cake with a “Happy Earth Day” card to the bandaged earth,
[00:14.75]which looks weak and agonized 1.
[00:17.05]In sharp contrast with the attractive, decent cake,
[00:20.99]the house where the earth dwells is toppling down
[00:24.70]and the food on which she survives are nothing but leftovers 2.
[00:28.31]As far as I am concerned,
[00:30.72]the picture aims at calling on the public to
[00:33.67]curb feigning 3 compliance 4 with laws and regulations about environment protection.
[00:38.82]First celebrated 5 in the year of 1970
[00:42.65]and credited with launching the modern environment campaign,
[00:46.47]the Earth Day has become a worldwide holiday.
[00:50.19]It is observed annually 6 now,
[00:52.60]promoting the enactment 7 of laws and regulations concerning environment protection.
[00:57.74]But their enforcement seems skin-deep,
[01:01.24]for evidence of degradation 8 of our globe can be seen everywhere,
[01:05.50]alongside the slogans appealing the public for more concern about our planet.
[01:11.08]Problems threatening humanity—soil erosion, desertification of land,
[01:16.66]a variety of pollution, and global warming—remain prominent.
[01:21.03]As our globe has suffered from a multitude of disasters,
[01:25.30]it is high time that we—its inhabitants—stopped subjecting it to more catastrophic problems.
[01:32.41]It is most important that we bear it in mind rather than
[01:36.41]just print it on books or cloth that we have only one globe.
