篇1：英语作文动物保护 Animal Protection

英语作文：动物保护

Wild animals have no place in the 21st century. Some people think that preventing these wild animals from dying out is a waste of resource. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion.

Biological diversity has never been so threatened as it is today as a result of the process of human civilization. The various forms of pressure created by human activity have destroyed natural balance, led to the deterioration of natural habitats, genetic erosion and the rarity, even disappearance, of a number of plant and animal species.

As the pace of civilization accelerates, more people, taking more space, needing to use more natural resources, engaging in ever-growing consumption, impose severe deterioration on the habitat of animals. An increasing number of people come to realize that the disappearance of animals will result in serious threat to the equilibrium of ecosystem. Simply put, the extinction of hawks, a rat-eating bird seen in many regions, will result in the rapid propagation of rats. And rats, further, will destroy the prairies and threaten the other animals like gazelles, zebras and others, who live on grass and green lands. The coexistence of animals and human beings creates perfect harmony and brings about the vividness to our planet.

It is hard to imagine what our world would be like without animals. Sociologists also point out that the disappearance of animals can cause social and economic problems. Animal trade, as a supporting sector to the world economy, was very active before. However, the situation is beyond control since animal trade is very profitable and alluring. Many species cannot escape the adversity of being killed.

2)Kill two birds with one stone.一石二鸟,一箭双雕。但从翻译的角度来讲,前者更好,因为他既表达了深层的意义,又表达了原文的表层意义。而翻译成一箭双雕。则失去了原文的表层意义,抛弃了原文的形象思维,使生动的文化意象失去了直观性而变成了乏味的抽象语言。

摘要：动物名词除了用于指代动物名称外(即固有的字面意义),很多情况下是通过明喻和暗喻的修辞手法巧妙地用于指代非动物的意义(即文化内涵)。英语和汉语中的动物文化意象形成于民间,来自于人民生活,因此各具独特的民族特色。同一种动物可蕴含不同的喻义甚至完全相反的文化意象,只有熟悉了解这些差异,才能理解更深层的语言含义。该文通过对中西动物的文化意义进行比较,发现英语中的动物文化意象和汉语中的文化意象有相似之处,也有很多不同之处,区别很大,并通过举例加以说明。

篇12：英语动物谚语渊源比较分析

关键词：动物谚语；词源比较

一引言

英国是历史悠久、文化灿烂的国家，谚语资源十分丰富。其中的动物谚语以其生动形象、意近旨远的特征成为我们研究的对象。本文将从社会语言学的角度对英国动物谚语进行分析。

二英汉动物谚语所展现的社会和人民生活

德国语言理论家洪堡特认为：语言是民族的最大特征，语言随着民族的成长而发展，它是民族精神的外在表现，同时它又承载者民族的历史和文化。谚语总是以民族为立足点，依附于本民族的社会生活。因此英国动物谚语与爱尔兰民族的日常生活、宗教等密切相关。

1.日常生活

在出现的谚语动物中，出现了许多种动物，如牛，羊，马，驴、鸡、鸭、鹅、猫、狗等。劳动创造了世界，也创造了语言，因此谚语也经常反映人们的生产活动内容。于是动物谚语也被升华用来影射世俗事物。

我国自古就是一个农业大国，因而在汉语谚语中有很多是以农业为题材的，如种瓜得瓜，种豆得豆。英文中也有跟农业相关的谚语，如Change of pasturemakes fate calves.(要得牛犊肥，需要换块地)。

由于英国是四面环海的国家，英国人早期的生活很大程度依赖于海，他们常用鱼来比喻人，比如All isfish that comes to one’s net.抓到篮子里便是菜。There is as good fish in the sea as ever come outof it.有了大海，不怕没鱼。Fish begins to stink atthe head.鱼要腐烂头先臭一一上梁不正下梁歪。Thegreat fish eat up the small.大鱼吃小鱼一一弱肉强食。

由于中国古代多战事，马是人们的逃命的工具和人们的朋友，于是含有马的谚语很多，如“又要马儿好，又想马儿不吃草”；“马靠鞍装，人靠衣装”等都带有褒义。由于在英语国家里，人们认可马在生活中的重要性，如英语谚语：Better lose the saddle thanthe horse.(宁可丢鞍.不可失马)。

在中国文化里，狗是令人痛恨的，是令人鄙视的动物，常和“卑鄙、恶劣”连在一起。“赶狗入穷巷，招手回头一口”和“狗咬吕洞宾，不识好人心”。在英语谚语中，常以狗的形象来比喻人的行为，如：Everydog has his day.(人皆有出头日)；Love me，love mydog.(爱屋及乌)等。与此相反，中国人十分喜爱猫，用猫比喻人，常有亲昵的成份，如猫有九条命。形容吉人自有天相，而在西方文化中，猫被用来比喻心地恶毒的女人，如：Cats hide their claws.(知人知面不、知心)。

2.宗教在动物谚语中的反应

宗教信仰是文化的一个重要组成部分，往往贯穿人们的精神生活和社会生活，同时也在语言中体现出来。英国人信仰基督教，相信上帝。如as poor as theChurch mouse象教堂里老鼠一样穷。When the foxpreaches，take care of your geese.狐狸在说教，当心鹅偷掉。意思也就是笑里藏刀，口蜜腹剑。而汉族的宗教传统主要是佛教，我们不难看到连动物谚语中都有佛教留下的痕迹，如：佛口蛇心；欲为佛门龙象，先作众生马牛。

3.来自寓言

古希腊、古罗马文化常被赋予西方文化的第一源泉，因此英国文化与其有密不可分的历史渊源。英国谚语中的许多典故都来自《伊索寓言》等。比如说Scylla和Charybdis常被用于展示两个恶魔形象，前者是一个有着六个头的怪兽，后者是旋涡魔鬼，Scyl la和Charybids意味着一对危险，所以“One falls intoScylla in seeking to avoid Charybids”意思是一个人刚离开十只手的魔鬼，却遇上六头怪兽。与中文中的“才出狼窝又入虎穴”有异曲同工之处。Don’tkill the goose to get the eggs.勿杀鸡取卵，因小失大。(源于古希腊寓言)

三结语

动物谚语以通俗的比喻等的修辞手法表现深长的意义，揭示了深刻的道理。各民族根据自己的好恶赋予它们不同的意义。通过对动物在英、汉两种谚语中相似或不同寓意的比较，了解谚语中人们赋予动物的情感，读懂它们蕴涵的意义和传递的文化信息，可以加深我们对双方文化的进一步了解，从而更好地掌握和学习这种语言。这也是我们进行跨文化交际的有效途径。

4, if we encounter a small animal on the road, we should do “three no”: do not intimidate, do not hit, do not catch.

5, if we pick up or found a valuable wild animals, should be promptly to the neighborhood, schools and relevant departments to report.

篇15：保护动物英语作文100词

Besides, many trees are being cut down, making many animals lose their homes.

What’s worse, many animals are over hunted for money and are being killed without mercy so that some of them are in danger of dying out.

Firstly, natural reserves should be set up to protect the animals.

Secondly, all the illegal hunting should be punished.

Thirdly, people should be made aware of the importance of environmental protection.

篇16：保护动物英语作文600字

Do you agree or disagree with this point of view? Why or why not?

Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

In the past, there have been many endangered animals. Now they are extinct. Does it matter? Has our environment been affected by their absence? Has the quality of our own life been changed? The answer to these questions is “Yes.”

Yes. It does matter if we destroy an endangered species habitat to develop more farmland, housing or industrial parks. There is a delicate balance of nature. If one small part is removed, it will effect all the other parts.

For example, if certain trees are cut down, bats will have no place to roost. If they cannot roost, they cannot breed. If there are no bats, there will be no animal, or bird to eat certain insects that plague our crops.

Yes. Our environment has been affected by the absence of certain animals. Certain flowers are pollinated by butterflies, which migrate from Canada to Mexico.

Some of the breeding grounds of these butterflies were destroyed. Now these flowers are disappearing from certain areas. We will no longer be able to enjoy their beauty.

Yes. The quality of our life has been changed America used to be covered with giant trees. Now we have to visit them in one small park.

Rain forests around the world are being cut down to make room for humans. We will never be able to see or study this fragile ecosystem.

I would encourage us humans to look for other alternatives for our farmlands, housing, and industries. We have alternatives; the animals do not.
