Small Hands, Big Change
课文配图1
The poster on the school wall showed a turtle wrapped in a plastic bag, its eyes sad and tired. Underneath, in big letters: 'Every piece of plastic ever made still exists.' Li Lei stared at it for a long time. That afternoon, the environmental club held its first meeting, and the room was fuller than anyone had expected. 'We need a plan,' Han Mei said. 'Not just words.'
学校墙上的海报上,一只海龟被塑料袋缠住,眼神悲伤而疲惫。下面用大字写着:“人类制造的每一片塑料都仍然存在。”李雷盯着它看了很久。那天下午,环保社召开了第一次会议,教室里坐满了超出预期的人。“我们需要一个计划,”Han Mei 说,“而不只是口号。”

Their first campaign was called 'Plastic-Free Wednesday'. Every Wednesday, students would avoid single-use plastic: no plastic bottles, no plastic bags, no plastic-wrapped snacks. The school agreed to support them by providing water stations and paper bags. 'If everyone keeps one bottle out of the rubbish,' Jack calculated, 'our school will save thousands of bottles a year.' The poster campaign spread through the school like a wave, and soon everyone knew the rules.
他们的第一项活动叫“无塑星期三”。每周三,学生们不使用一次性塑料:不买塑料瓶、不用塑料袋、不吃塑料包装的零食。学校同意支持他们,提供饮水站和纸袋。“如果每人每年少扔一个瓶子,”Jack 算了算,“我们学校一年就能省下几千个瓶子。”海报活动像波浪一样传遍学校,很快人人皆知规则。

The first Wednesday was harder than expected. Lily discovered that her favourite snack came wrapped in three layers of plastic. Jack's lunch box turned out to be full of hidden packaging. But the students did not give up; they swapped ideas, shared reusable bottles, and reminded one another with gentle nudges. 'Old habits die hard,' Han Mei said, 'but they do die.'
第一个星期三比预想的难。Lily 发现她最爱的零食包着三层塑料;Jack 的午餐盒里全是隐藏的包装。但学生们没有放弃:他们交换点子、分享可重复使用的水瓶、用温和的提醒互相督促。“旧习惯难改,”Han Mei 说,“但它们确实会改。”

Word spread to other classes, then to other schools. A local newspaper even came to interview the club. 'How can a few teenagers change the environment?' the reporter asked. Cozy teacher answered: 'The environment is not changed by a few people doing everything. It is changed by everyone doing something.' The quote appeared in the paper the next day, and donations began to arrive. The reporter nodded, writing quickly, and the students felt their words had weight.
消息传到了其他班级,又传到其他学校。当地报纸甚至来采访环保社。“几个青少年怎么能改变环境?”记者问。Cozy 老师回答:“环境不是靠少数人做所有事来改变的,而是靠每个人做一点事来改变的。”第二天这句话登上了报纸,捐款也开始涌来。记者点头,飞快地记录,学生们感到自己的话有分量。

The club used the donations to install water refill stations and to fund a river clean-up day. On a sunny Saturday, fifty students walked along the river, picking up rubbish and sorting it into bags. By noon, they had collected two hundred kilograms of waste — including an old bicycle. 'Look what we did,' Lily said, holding up a handful of bottle caps. 'Small hands, big change.' The old bicycle was given a place of honour in the school garden, painted green.
环保社用捐款安装了饮水补给站,并资助了一次河流清洁日。一个晴朗的周六,五十名学生沿河而行,捡拾垃圾并分类装袋。到中午,他们收集了两百公斤废弃物——包括一辆旧自行车。“看看我们做了什么,”Lily 举着一把瓶盖说,“小手,大改变。”那辆旧自行车被漆成绿色,在学校花园里获得了一席荣誉之地。

At the end of the term, the club's report was read at the school assembly. 'We did not save the world,' Han Mei said honestly. 'But the river is cleaner, the school is lighter, and three hundred students now carry reusable bottles. If the world is to be saved, it will be saved by days like this.' The applause was long and warm, and Li Lei, holding his own bottle, felt prouder than he had ever felt. Small things, he thought, add up.
学期末,环保社的报告在校会上宣读。“我们没有拯救世界,”Han Mei 坦诚地说,“但河水更清了,学校更环保了,三百名学生现在随身携带可重复使用的水瓶。如果世界要被拯救,它将被这样的日子拯救。”掌声长久而温暖。李雷握着自己的水瓶,感到前所未有的自豪。他想,小事积少成多。

3语法小课堂:被动语态综合 & 非谓语动词综合

被动语态综合(深化)
be / being / been + done(随时态变化)
The plan was approved by the school council. (计划被校务委员会批准。)
The rubbish is being sorted into bins. (垃圾正在被分类入桶。)
The results have been published in the report. (结果已发表在报告中。)
⚠️ 被动语态 = be 动词(体现时态)+ 过去分词(体现被动)。
非谓语动词综合
to do / doing / done 作主语、宾语、定语、状语
To protect the earth is our duty. (保护地球是我们的责任。)
The students finished sorting the rubbish by noon. (学生们中午前完成了垃圾分类。)
Encouraged by the results, the club continued. (受到结果鼓舞,社团继续行动。)
⚠️ 非谓语做题步骤:找逻辑主语 → 判断主被动 → 判断先后。
👨‍🏫Cozy 老师说:高中语法重在「在语境中理解」——多读课文里的例句,语法自然就活了。
