今天的这段对话，在讨论癌症与环境，
你怎么看待中国越来越多的人死于癌症？有什么快速解决环境污染的办法
来听今天的讲解:
A: you know, an increasing number of people are sufferning from cancer these years in China.
近几年来,中国越来越多的人死于癌症.
B: I heard! Cancer was the top killer in China last year.
听说了,去年在中国死于癌症的人最多.
A: any idea why?
你怎么看待这个问题呢?
B: I think environmental factors are probably the main cause. In Beijing alone, 70-80 percent of all fatal cancer cases are related to the environment.
我认为环境问题是最主要的原因.但在北京,70%--80%的重癌症病例都和环境有关系.
A: some say that's just the cost of rapid economic development over the past two decades.
有人说,这是由于我们过去20多年经济过快发展造成的.
B: many people are wondering if China is heading towards an environmental disaster.
许多人在夸张,中国是否会走向环境灾难.
A: oh, thatgoes too far, doesn't it?
那也太夸张了吧?
B: maybe, maybe not. One in four citizenshas no access toclean drinking water. One third of the urban population is breathing polluted air. Finally, seven of the world's ten most polluted cities are in China.
或许吧,不好说.四分之一的人喝不到干净的水;三分之一的城市人口呼吸着受到污染的空气;还有,世界上10个污染最严重的城市,有7个就在中国.
A: is there any quick solution?
有什么快速的解决办法吗?
B: not really. But the government has taken some measures toreverseit.
没有.但是政府已经采取了很多措施.
A: like what?
有哪些啊?
B: so far the government hasstipulatedand reversed the relevant laws on water, air and solid waste pollution in order to achieve sustainable development.
到目前为止,政府在水,空气,固体污染等方面,已经制订和修订了相关法律,以实现可持续发展.
A: that should be a big help. However, we really need to promote the awareness of environmental issues among individuals. That way we can all help together.
这应该是一个很大的帮助。然而，我们确实需要提高个人对环境问题的认识。这样我们可以一起提供帮助。
B: definitely, we have only one earth and we all have to share it.
的确.我们只有一个地球,必须共同保护她.
