新視野大學英語（第四版）讀寫教程4E-CparagraphtranslationActivity2SectionC人與自然的親密關系從人類在地球上誕生時就開始了，并且每個世紀變得愈發(fā)理性和深遠。因此，我們求助于自然，視其為人類最古老和最具影響力的老師。從某個角度來看，自然曾是我們的監(jiān)工，現(xiàn)在卻是我們的奴仆。但從另一個角度看，自然一直都是我們忠實的朋友、導師和啟發(fā)者。正是這種親密關系剝奪了它在人們心中的某種神秘感和豐富性——如果自然只是少數(shù)人的饋贈而非多數(shù)人的禮遇，這種神秘感和豐富性本應存在。新視野大學英語（第四版）讀寫教程4E-CparagraphtranslationReference

SectionC對于少數(shù)人而言，這種關系在每個時代都充滿奇幻和美妙，但對大多數(shù)人來說，卻是理所當然之事。海的神秘、恐怖和樂章；叢林的神秘感和魅力，為疲憊的心靈和不安的情緒帶來治愈；群山的奇峻，把光與氣之玄妙藏于幽深處；變幻無窮的風景，從不模仿或重復，永遠以一種出乎意料的新鮮和美麗來沖擊人的想象力——誰能感受到這些奇妙資源為我們生活的富足所帶來的全部力量，或者從中汲取它們賜予我們的健康、快樂和充實?

TranslatethefollowingparagraphintoEnglish.人與自然之間錯綜復雜的關系一直是人類存在的核心焦點。自然以其無盡的資源和令人嘆為觀止的美景，自古以來就滋養(yǎng)并激發(fā)著人類文明。從培育糧食的肥沃土壤到孕育無數(shù)海洋生物的浩瀚海洋，自然是我們生存的基石。然而，隨著社會的進步，我們發(fā)現(xiàn)自己與這一重要紐帶的聯(lián)系越來越疏遠。森林砍伐、環(huán)境污染和氣候變化是我們對進步無休止追求所留下的丑陋疤痕。后果是嚴重的，生物多樣性喪失、棲息地破壞和環(huán)境退化構成了生存威脅。新視野大學英語（第四版）讀寫教程4C-EparagraphtranslationActivity2SectionC

TranslatethefollowingparagraphintoEnglish.現(xiàn)在該是我們認識到自己作為這個星球管理者責任的時候了。通過采取環(huán)保措施、推廣可持續(xù)生活方式和保護自然棲息地，我們可以修補與自然之間已經(jīng)破損的關系紐帶。畢竟，我們的福祉與環(huán)境健康息息相關。讓我們努力與自然和諧共生，為了我們的未來和子孫后代而珍惜它、保護它。這樣，我們不僅保護了我們的星球，還確保所有人都能擁有一個更加光明、更加可持續(xù)的未來。新視野大學英語（第四版）讀寫教程4C-EparagraphtranslationActivity2SectionCTheintricaterelationshipbetweenhumanityandnaturehasalwaysbeenafocalpointofourexistence.Nature,withitsboundlessresourcesandbreathtakingbeauty,hasnurturedandinspiredcivilizationssincetimeimmemorial.Fromthefertilesoilsthatcultivateourfoodtotheoceansthatharborcountlessmarinespecies,naturestandsasthecornerstoneofoursurvival.Yet,asoursocietyadvances,wefindourselvesincreasinglydisconnectingfromthisvitalbond.Deforestation,pollution,andclimatechangearetheunsightlyscarsleftbyourrelentlesspursuitofprogress.Theconsequencesaredire,withbiodiversityloss,habitatdestruction,andenvironmentaldegradationposingexistentialthreats.新視野大學英語（第四版）讀寫教程4C-EparagraphtranslationReference
