I am water. To humans, I am simply just there. I’m something they just take for granted. But there is only so much of me and more and more of them every single day. I start as rain in the mountains, flow to the rivers and streams and end up in the ocean. Then the cycle begins again. And it will take me ten thousand years to get back to the state I’m in, now. But to humans, I’m just water, just there. Where will humans find me when there are billions more of them around? Where will they find themselves?Will they wage wars over me, like they do over everything else?That’s always an option, but it’s not the only option.
我是水，對於人類來說，我司空見慣、理所當然。但是我是非常有限的，而人類的數量卻每天都在增長。我化身為雨水，落入山中、流進小溪與河流，最終匯入大海。讓我回到起始的形態，有時需要壹萬年的時間。然而對於人類來說，我只是水，理所當然就應該存在。如果人口再增加幾十億，人來還能找到我嗎？他們又將如何生存呢？人類為了爭奪各種資源而陷入戰爭，未來他們是否會為了爭奪我而又發起戰爭呢？那倒也是壹種選擇，但並非唯壹的選擇。
金句賞析：
Will they wage wars over me, like they do over everything else?
