Molly Lakewater
estuary
As Molly Lakewater walked into the bird estuary she was quite proud of her ethnic heritage. Here was a protected area that her esteemed ancestors had valued; here was an everlasting piece of her past; here was the essence of her culture. When international scientists had finished their evaluation to declare that the land should be placed in eternal protection, her family had rejoiced. It was the only ethical solution, others declared, and the only way to let evolution continue untouched by man in at least one place. The estuary had almost been destroyed. It was only because of her family's care that the stuary had evaded that planned destruction and called in the experts.
莫莉雷克沃特走入鳥類棲息的港灣時(shí),她為自己的民族傳統(tǒng)感到非常自豪。這是一塊得到保護(hù)的土地,德高望重的先輩們一直珍視這塊地方。這里有她對過去的永久回憶,這里是她的文化的精華所在。各國科學(xué)家在完成了評(píng)估之后宣布這塊土地應(yīng)該得到永久保護(hù),她的家人都感到歡欣鼓舞。其他人則說這是惟一合乎道德的解決辦法,同時(shí)也是惟一能讓進(jìn)化在不受人類干擾的情況下繼續(xù)進(jìn)行的辦法,至少在一個(gè)地方是這樣。港灣差點(diǎn)兒就被毀掉了。只是由于她家的關(guān)心,港灣才逃過了一劫,請來了專家。
