一只塑料瓶的自述 (附中文译文）

    I am a plastic bottle.A week ago,I was on a supermarket shelf.I had a normal life,the same as all my brothers and sisters--- other bottles full of water.I felt really happy.

    Then a tall woman picked me up and put me in her basket! The woman took me home and put me in the fridge.It was cold,but I soon made friends with the cans and bottles in it.However,only a few hours later,she took me out of the fridge and drank the water inside me. Then she threw me into a dustbin. I have never felt so empty and alone in my life.

    Early the next morning,a man took me out of the dustbin.He threw me and the other rubbish into the back of a truck.There were so many horrible smells.Then I was pushed together with the rest of the rubbish.Soon I was completely flat.I cannot believe how thin I became.

    I slept for a while.when I woke up,I found myself in a terrible place.Everything around me was ugly and had horrible smells.I felt afraid.I kept hoping that I would be moved somewhere else.Then huge trucks came and covered us with a layer of soil.

    I asked another bottle what would happen to us.He said that we would never leave this horrible crowded place,but would have to stay here for thousands of years.

    "Why can't they reuse or recycle us?" I cried.

    我是一只塑料瓶，一周前我在一个超市的货架上，我和我的兄弟姐妹们一样有一个正常的生活——装满水。我感到高兴。

   之后，一个高大的女人拿起我放进她篮子里，她把我带回家里，把我放进冰箱，好冷，但不久就与里面的瓶瓶罐罐交朋友了。然而，仅几小时她把我拿出喝掉我里面装的水，然后把我扔进垃圾篓，我从来没感到如此空虚寂寞过。

   第二天一早，一个男的把我从垃圾篓带出，他把我和别的垃圾扔到一卡车后背，散发出可怕气味。然后，我和剩余垃圾被压成一团，不久我完全扁了，无法想象我变得多么瘦。

   我睡了一会，醒来时发现自己在一个恶劣的地方，周围是肮脏和难闻的气味。我很害怕，希望我能移到别处，那时几辆大卡车驶来，用一层泥土覆盖我们。

   我问另一只瓶子会发生什么？他说我们永远不会离开这个可怕之地，将呆在此地成千上万年。

   “为什么他们不重复使用或循环利用我们呢？”我哭了。（深圳家教·龙华家教 ）
