大自然在说话（中英双语版）

1 Mother Nature大自然

Some call me nature. Others call me “Mother Nature.” I've been here for over 4.5 billion years, 22,500 times longer than you. I don't really need people. But people need me. Yes, your future depends on me. When I thrive, you thrive. When I falter, you falter. Or worse. But I've been here for eons(=aeon千万年). I have fed species greater than you. And I have starved species greater than you. My oceans. My soil. My flowing streams. My forests. They all can take you or leave you. How you choose to live each day, whether you regard or disregard me, doesn't really matter to me. One way or the other. Your actions will determine your fate. Not mine. I am nature. I will go on. I am prepared to evolve. Are you?

有人称我为大自然，也有人叫我大自然母亲。我已经度过了四十五亿年，是你们人类存在时间的两万两千五百倍。我并不需要人类，人类却离不开我。是的，你们的未来取决于我，如果我繁盛，你们也将繁盛，如果我衰败，你们也会衰败，甚至更遭。我已经存在了亿万年，我养育过比你们强大得多的物种，也曾让比你们强大得多的物种因饥饿而死亡。我的海洋、我的土地、我的河流、我的森林，都可以影响人类的存在。越来越多的人类啊，你们想怎样度过每一天？在意我，或者忽略我，我并不在乎，你们的行为决定你们的命运，不是我的，我是大自然，我将继续存在，我随时都在进化，而你们呢？

2 Ocean 海洋

I am the ocean. I'm water. I'm most of this planet. I shaped it. Every stream, every cloud, and every rain drop. It all comes back to me. One way or another, every living thing here needs me. I'm the source. I'm what they crawled out of. Humans? They're no different.I don't owe them a thing. I give. They take. But I can always take back. That's just the way it's always been. It's not their planet anyway. Never was. Never will be. But humans, they take more than their share. They poison me, then they expect me to feed them. Well it doesn't work that way. If humans want to exist in nature with me

and off of me, I suggest they listen close. I'm only going to say this once. If nature isn't kept healthy, humans won't survive. Simple as that. Me, I could give a damn, with or without humans. I'm the ocean.

I covered this entire planet once. And I can always cover it again. That's all I have to say.

我是海洋，我是水。我覆盖了大部分地球，我创造了它，每一条河、每一朵云、每一滴雨，都将回到我的怀抱。地球上所有的生物，离不开我，所有的生命，来自我，那么人类呢？你们也不例外，我什么都不欠你们，我一直在付出，而你们一直在获取，从来如此。但是我也能随时将一切收回，毕竟，这不是你们的星球，以前不是，以后也不是。你们不仅贪得无厌，还毒害我，竟然还想让我继续养活你们，这怎么可能？如果人类想与我共存，赖我而生，我要你们听仔细，我只说一次。没有健康的大自然，人类，就将走向灭亡，道理，就这么简单。至于我，有没有人类，不是很有所谓，因为我是海洋，我曾经覆盖过整个地球，我也可以再一次把它全部覆盖，这就是我要说的。

3 Redwood 红木

A: How come you're so smart?

B: Kid, I've been around a really long time. As a matter of fact, our kind has been around longer than just about anything. I've seen just about everything.

A: Really? Like what?

B: Well, I've seen weather. All kinds of weather.

A: And lots of critters?

B: -Yeah. At first there were just some bugs and spiders, then some mice and rats, and some rabbits and bears, and skunks. Then, all of a sudden, there were humans. And all hell broke loose.

A: Why? What did the humans do?

B: Well, they changed wolves into dogs, rivers into lakes, and us into wood.They started using the planet like it was put there just for them. Act like they've got an extra one laying around.

A: Why do they do that? Why don't they understand?
