① 求一篇 大学不是象牙塔的英语作文
很多人都认为那些身处象牙塔的大学生们过得很安逸,其实不然.他们每天也要面临着很多压力：高额学费带来的经济压力,父母要求过高所带来的精神压力…
College Pressure
I see two kinds of pressure working on college students today: economic pressure, parental pressure. It is easy to look around for rebels — to blame the colleges for charging too much money, the parents for pushing them too far. But there are no rebels, only victims.
The pressure is heavy on students who just want to graate and get a job. If I were an employer I would rather employ graates who have this range and curiosity than those who narrowly pursued safe subjects and high grades. I know incalculable students whose inquiring minds cheer me. I like to hear the play of their ideas. I don’t know if they are getting A or C, and I don’t care. I also like them as people. The country needs them, and they will find satisfying jobs. I tell them to relax, but they can’t.
Nor can I blame them. They live in a brutal economy. Today it is not unusual for a student, even if he works part time at college and full time ring the summer, to increase to 5, 000 in loans after graation.Encouraged at commencement to go forth into the world, he is already behind as he goes forth. How could he not feel under pressure throughout college to prepare for this day of reckoning?
Along with economic pressure goes parental pressure. Inevitably, the two are deeply integrated.
Poor students! They are caught in one of the oldest webs of love and ty and guilt. The parents mean well: they are trying to steer their sons and daughters toward a secure future. But the sons and daughters want to major in history or classics or philosophy—subjects with no “practical” value. Where’s the payoff on the humanities? It’s not easy to persuade such loving parents that the humanities do indeed pay off. The intellectual faculties developed by studying subjects like history and classics are just the faculties that make creative leaders in business or almost any general field.
Luckily for me, most of them got into their field by an indirect route, to their surprise, after many roundabout ways. They can hardly conceive of a career that was not preplanned. They can hardly imagine allowing the hand of God or chance to nudge them down some unforeseen trail.

⑤ An endangered animal. 关于亚洲象的英语作文
The Asian elephant is one of the world's rarest animals. Unfortunately, its sad condition has not been as well publicized as that of the African elephant. This is because Asian elephant's ivory supplies only a small percentage of the world ivory trade. In fact, we know very little about the Asian elephant. They live in the remote forests of southern Asia and it is therefore very difficult to study them. Most knowledge of Asian elephants is from those that have been captured, or tamed. Asian elephants are easier to tame than African elephants. The elephants you see in the circuses and zoos are nearly always Asian.
亚洲象是世界上稀有动物之一。不幸的是，它们的悲惨状况还没有像非洲象一样得到很好的宣传。这是因为亚洲象的象牙交易在世界象牙交易中仅仅占了很小的一个百分比。事实上，我们对亚洲象的了解很少。它们生活在亚洲南部很偏远的一个森林中，因此对它们的研究工作就非常困难。我们所了解亚洲象大部分的知识是从那些被捕获或者被驯服的亚洲象中得来的。亚洲象比非洲象容易驯服。你在马戏团或者动物园中看到的大象几乎都是亚洲象

⑧ 英语作文如何保护非洲象牙
An investigation by the BBC television programme Panorama suggests that elephant poaching is on the rise despite an international ban on the trade in ivory. One Kenyan district has lost more than a quarter of its elephants in the past three years. Peter Biles has more. In Kenya's Samburu district, elephants have traditionally thrived. But experts say there're now worrying signs of poaching. In the past three years, a quarter of the elephants have been lost. In Central Africa too, poaching is rife. And it's feared elephant numbers are plummeting. But it is now possible to use DNA technology on ivory that's been seized to help pinpoint where elephants have been killed. Four years ago, CITES, the body which oversees the wildlife trade, lifted its ban to allow four southern African countries to sell stockpiled ivory to China and Japan. The BBC investigation says that changed everything. And the illegal trade now seems to be booming.
BBC电视节目《全景》的一个调查显示，虽然国际上存在象牙交易禁令，大象被捕杀的案例却正在增加。肯尼亚的一个区在最近三年损失了原有大象数量的四分之一。彼得·拜尔斯为您详细报道。 在肯尼亚桑布卢区原来是大象繁衍栖息的好地方。而最近专家们发现，非法捕猎大象的案例让我们对大象的生存忧心忡忡。在近三年里，这个区有四分之一的大象消失了。在中非地区，捕猎大象也很普遍。人们担心大象数量正在骤减。而现在有办法使用DNA技术通过缴获的象牙判断大象被杀的具体位置。四年前，CITES(《濒危野生动植物种国际贸易公约》),这个监管野生动物贸易的机构解除了对4个南部非洲国家的禁令，允许它们卖给中国和日本囤积的象牙。BBC调查发现这一举动改变了一切。现在非法交易正在快速增加。

⑩ 写一篇关于2014年10月西双版纳一头大象被猎杀取牙的英文作文,呼吁人们保护野
象。在仍存活的哺乳动物中，海牛和蹄兔被认为是大象的近亲，因为它们拥有共同的祖先。
今天，只有非洲象和亚洲象仍然生存。如果你知道看身体什么部位，就可以很容易区分这两种象。直到不久前，科学家一直认为大象只分为两种。然而，之后的DNA研究表明，非洲象还分为两种——森林象和草原象，这时的大象又变成了三种。非洲草原象比它们的森林象兄弟体形更大，耳朵更大，牙也更弯。
所有的大象都是草食动物，它们吃青草、树皮、树枝、树叶和果实。它们每天要花18个小时进食。因为大象的身体只能吸收约40%的食物，所以，它们必须吃很多。一头成年象每天能吃大约180公斤的食物。它们每天还需要摄入114-189升的水，为了寻找水，大象会长途跋涉不辞辛苦。
大象的不同凡响不仅表现在它们的体形上，也表现在它们许多独特的身体部位上。这其中，大象的鼻子和象牙可能是引人注目的——它们的这些身体部位有多种用途，能用于进食，用于交流。大象的耳朵和脚的大小及作用也非同寻常。总之，大象的身体能很好的适应其野外的家园。
除了身体精妙外，大象的大脑也令人叹服。它们的大脑的功用之一是帮助大象很好地融入象群。大象生活在大象家族里，家族成员包括几代母象，和不同年龄的幼象。母象一生都留在自己的家族中。公象通常在12—17岁之间离开象群，或独自生活，或小群生活。公象离开家族后，只有在交配时才和母象生活在一起。
大象记忆惊人。它们能记住其他大象，即使相隔数十年后仍会记得。亲朋好友久别重逢时，它们有时会转圈子，抬高头，扇动耳朵，大声鸣叫。大象也能记住曾经找到过食物和水的地方。一群象能在干涸中生存下来，要归功于女家长对遥远的水源位置的记忆。
亚非大陆上曾经生活着数百头大象，但过去的一个世纪之中，大象种群数量下降超过50%，野生象数量现在不超过55万头。
猎杀大象的主要原因是为了获取象牙。千百年来，象牙被用于制作各种物品，其中包括钢琴键、象牙台球、筷子、印章和其他一些奢侈的
