休闲对话：贫穷、污染让我们黯然泪下

Ann: What’s the matter with the earth?

这个地球是怎么了?

Lily: What’s wrong?

怎么啦?

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

看这些图片，难道你不会对这个世界绝望吗?

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

哦，天啊。这些图片是哪里来的?

Ann: I searched on the Internet and found them.

我上网看到的。

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，这些贫穷的孩子走在被污染的水当中去寻找一些有价值的东西。然后是这个家伙，在这样一条令人恶心的河里洗衣服。

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

如果想活下去，他们没选择啊。

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

是啊，我知道，但是对他们很抱歉。

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.

我们该做的是怎么保护我们的环境。别在这里说而什么都不做。我们应该知道在日常生活当中，我们能做什么，比如说什么东西可以买，什么东西要抵制。

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

恩，一些人总是讲的很大声，却无所为。
