Issue 31 Society should make efforts to save endangered species

妄誩UID: 3566367

31.  Society should make efforts to save endangered species only if the potential extinction of those species is the result of human activities.

Write a response in which you discuss your views on the policy and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider the possible consequences of implementing the policy and explain how these consequences shape your position.

这道题目纠结了将近一个晚上，虽然感觉想到的点很多，但要挑选出可以组成逻辑链的却不容易。比如想到了“人类难以判断是不是人为造成的”，“所有物种都有生存权都应得到保护”之类，但感觉挺难自圆其说的。

暂时中英夹杂表述如下，希望王老师或其他同学帮忙看下，之后会按照规范修改的，跪谢~

Thesis:目前大部分物种濒危都有人类因素，在人力物力有限的情况下，这不能成为保护濒危物种的可行指标，保护时应该考虑物种的濒危程度和自身价值。

你这个主旨句和题目的意思有些偏差

题目 Society should make efforts to save endangered species only if the potential extinction of those species is the result of human activities.
是说 只有当...才怎么做 言下之意是不符合这个条件就不...
那么我觉得你首先应该回应不符合这个条件要不要save的问题 或许可以将你的第三点挪到前面来 （而这个点在主旨句里没有提到）
解决了以后再来说 面对大量人类导致的灭绝 如何处理

你可以看看我之前和其他同学讨论的提纲


TS1人为因素造成物种濒危的速度和比重远远超过非人为因素，而由于人类精力和财力限制，保护所有人为因素造成的濒危物种是不现实、不可行的。人为因素最主要的原因包括栖息地破坏、非法猎杀等。随着人类活动范围的扩大，人为因素的影响也越来越大。目前每年都有27000个物种从地球上消失。要想都保护，将会耗费巨大的精力和财力，而且很可能收效甚微。

TS2 由于濒危物种数量大，增长快，对其保护要参考科学可靠的濒危等级，程度严重的优先保护。Human beings should protect those endangered according to reliable categories and criteria regarding the population size, decreasing rate, geographic range, etc。有重点的保护才更有成效。如果仅考虑人为造成的濒危物种，很可能保护了濒危程度较轻的物种，而忽视了非人类造成的濒危程度严重的物种。

TS3 对濒危物种的保护要考虑其价值。即便物种濒危与人类无关，但具有文化、科研价值时也应该保护。例子：大熊猫和红豆杉。Giant panda is seen as a Chinese emblem and has enjoyed great popularity worldwide due to panda diplomacy since 1980s. It plays an important role in cultural exchange between PRC and other countries and districts such as Japan, the US and Taiwan. Chinese yew contains a chemical used in the cancer medication。红豆杉的保护和种植对于研究抗癌药物有重要意义。上述两个物种濒危都与人类无关，但如果不保护开发，将造成文化价值和经济价值流失.

谢谢老师指点！修改如下

Thesis: The protection of endangered species should include those caused by non-human factors if they ar of potential values or in great peril. Furthermore, with limited resources, it is not practicable to save every species on the verge of human-induced extinction considering their large amount and rapid growth.

TS1 Even if it is not human who put some species at risk, those species still deserve saving efforts if they possess cultural or scientific values. 例子：大熊猫和红豆杉。Giant panda is seen as a Chinese emblem and has enjoyed great popularity worldwide due to panda diplomacy since 1980s. It plays an important role in cultural exchange between PRC and other countries and districts such as Japan, the US and Taiwan. Chinese yew contains a chemical used in the cancer medication。红豆杉的保护和种植对于研究抗癌药物有重要意义。上述两个物种濒危都与人类无关，但如果不保护开发，将造成文化价值和经济价值流失.

TS2 Moreover, it behooves us to salvage species severely endangered despite that their living plight may have little to do with human involvement.人类应该参考科学可靠的濒危等级。Human beings should protect those endangered according to reliable categories and criteria regarding the population size, decreasing rate, geographic range, etc。有重点的保护才更有成效。如果仅考虑人为造成的濒危物种，很可能保护了濒危程度较轻的物种，而忽视了非人类造成的濒危程度严重的物种，甚至造成更大规模的物种灭亡，而这显然是人类不愿看到的。

TS3 Further scrutiny of the claim reveals the infeasibility of making efforts on every case of manmade endangerment. Since modern times,  the number and speed of endangered species brought by human activity has stunningly outpaced that resulted from natural factors.人为因素造成物种濒危的速度和比重远远超过非人为因素，而由于人类精力和财力限制，保护所有人为因素造成的濒危物种是不现实、不可行的。人为因素最主要的原因包括栖息地破坏、非法猎杀等。随着人类活动范围的扩大，人为因素的影响也越来越大。目前每年都有27000个物种从地球上消失。要想都保护，将会耗费巨大的精力和财力，而且很可能收效甚微。

另想请问您说这个话题的讨论是指issue联系贴里的吗？那个帖子我看到了，但话题侧重“是否应耗费大量人力财力”，和这个好像还不太一样
