阅读英语：保护耕地

      城市的发展让土地得到充分利用，但是农耕面积却在不断缩小。今天，就让我们来阅读英语之保存土地来感受我们城市发展大肆占用土地所造成的后果。

Saving Land for Endangered Animals

　　There is only so much land on the earth, and so what we can do with it is limited. Some people believe that human needs for farmland, housing and industry should come first, while others believe that some land should be set aside for endangered animals. I am of the opinion that we should reserve some land for the world’s animals for the following reasons. 内容来自www. .com

　　First, mankind’s need for land is constantly growing. If the demand is not checked in some way, humans will eventually develop all of the earth’s available land. At that time, mankind will have no more room to grow, and all the wild animals will have disappeared, as well as other valuable resources. Second, humans are able to innovate and can use the land that they already possess in more efficient ways. Animals are unable to do this. Once their land is taken away from them they will die. Third and last, endangered animals are an important part of the biodiversity of our planet. If they disappear, we cannot predict what the effect will be. Therefore, we should treat such animals as a valuable resource to be protected. 内容来自www. .com

　　To sum up, the world’s endangered animals are an important resource and we should protect them by setting aside some land for them. Although mankind’s need for land continues to grow, people are intelligent and inventive enough to put the land they have to better use. In this way, we can have enough land for farming, housing and industry, and preserve the biodiversity of the planet at the same time.

保存土地给濒临绝种的动物

　　地球上的土地就只有这么多，所以咱们可能利用土地的方式有限。有些人认为人类对耕地、居住以及工业的须要应该摆在第一位，然而有人则以为，有些土地应当留给濒临绝种的动物。我的看法是，基于下列的理由，咱们应该保留一些土地给地球上的动物。 CopyRight .com

　　首先，人类对土地的需求在始终增加。如果这些需求不以某种方法来加以抑制，人类最后将会开发完地球上所有可用的土地。到那时候，人类将不栽种作物的空间，而且全部的野活跃物将会跟其余可贵的资源一样消失殆尽。其次，人类能够翻新并且以更有效率的方式来运用已经领有的土地，动物则无奈做到这一点。一旦土地被剥夺，它们就会去世亡。第三点，也是最后一点，濒临绝种的动物是我们地球上物种多元性的重要组成部分。假如它们消失了，我们无法猜想将会造成什么样有影响。因此，我们应该把这些动物视为需要保护的宝贵资源。

　　总之，全世界濒临绝种的动物都是一项主要的资源，我们应该加以保护，并且保留一些土地给它们。诚然人类对土地的需要在持续增加，但人类很聪明，而且存在发现力，可能更充分应用所占领的土地。如此一来，我们会有足够的土地耕种、居住，并用来发展产业，而且能同时保持地球物种的多元性。

       我们的生活环境已经在破坏了，如果耕地在也得不到保护，不知道我们的子孙后代还可以看得到稻田吗？阅读英语不单单是学习英语，同样的我们要在阅读英语的同时去感受里面的文化内涵。
