选项
答案     The quality of human life has improved greatly over the past few centuries, but the earth is being harmed more and more by human activities. As we develop our technologies, we demand more from our planet. Eventually, this will harm people as well.
    Our planet gives us everything we need, but natural resources are not endless. Strip mining devastates whole regions, leaving bare and useless ground. Deforestation removes old-growth trees that cannot be replaced. Too much fishing may harm fish populations to the point where they cannot recover. We are too careless in taking what we want without giving anything back.
    There are more people than ever, living longer than ever. So it is no wonder that living areas suffer from too much development. Anyone living in or near a city has experienced "urban sprawl". There is a new shopping area on every corner and new houses, townhouses and apartments everywhere. Traffic gets worse and worse because planners can’t keep up with growth. Keeping up with human demand is hard enough. Environmental concerns come last with the growth of pollution. Companies and communities dump waste into water. Landfills are full of trash. Emissions from factories pollute the air with industrial waste, what is worse, radioactive waste have made there no safe place to go. If we are not careful, we will harm our planet beyond repair.
    People need to respect the Earth and try to preserve it. If we do not, what kind of future will we have?
