新概念英语第一册精讲：Lesson 143 A walk through the woods
I live in a very old town which is surrounded by beautiful woods. It is afamous beauty spot. On Sundays, hundreds of people come from the city to see our
town and to walk through the woods. Visitors have been asked to keep the woods
clean and tidy. Litter baskets have been placed under the trees, but people
still throw their rubbish everywhere. Last Wednesday, I went for a walk in the
woods. What I saw made me very sad. I counted seven old cars and three old
refrigerators. The little baskets were empty and the ground was covered with
pieces of paper, cigarette ends, old tyres, empty bottles and rusty tins. Among
the rubbish, I found a sign which said, 'Anyone who leaves litter in these woods
will be prosecuted!'

我住在一个由美丽的树林环绕的古老小镇上。这是一个著名的风景胜地。每逢星期天，有许许多人从城里来观赏我们的小镇，并在树林中散步。游客已被告知要保持树林的整洁。树下都已设置了废物筐，但是人们仍到处扔垃圾。上星期三我到树林里去散步。我所见到的一切使我非常难过。我数了一下，有7辆旧汽车和3个旧冰箱。废物筐是空的，而满地都是纸片、烟头、旧轮胎、空瓶子和生锈的空罐头盒。在垃圾堆中我发现了一块牌子，上面写着：“凡在此树林里丢弃垃圾者，将依法处置”。
