一天,一支船队在无边的大海上迷航了,顺着风向,船队来到岛边。船员们下了船、贪婪地呼吸着岛上新鲜的空气,欣赏着岛上优美的景色,仿佛置身于仙境一般。他们惊呼道:“啊!我们这是到了天堂了吗?”“不,这不是天堂,这是我们发现的新大陆。”插话的是这个船队的总指挥,这是一位知识渊博的老船长,所有的船员都很敬重他。老船长接着又说:“让我们给这个上帝恩赐的宝地取个名吧!”后来,大家一致同意给这个海岛取名“幸福岛”。
One day, a fleet was lost on the boundless sea. Following the wind, the fleet came to the island. The crew got off the ship and greedily breathed the fresh air on the island, enjoying the beautiful scenery on the island, as if they were in a fairyland. They exclaimed, "ah! Are we in heaven? " "No, it's not heaven. It's the new continent we found." It was the commander-in-chief of the fleet who interposed. He was an old and knowledgeable captain. All the crew respected him very much. Then the captain added, "let's name the land of God." Later, everyone agreed to name the island "Happy Island".
人类的到来给这个海岛带来的只是灾难。他们伐倒了岛上大约一半的树木,致使鸟儿们无家可归,又加上他们大量捕食,岛上鸟类几乎灭绝。剩余的树木没有鸟这个“医生”,受尽虫害折磨。他们还将大量废水、垃圾随意倒入海中,污染海水。没多久,这个岛就大变样了:花草枯萎了,鸟兽迁走了,取而代之的是一座座被油烟、毒气熏烤着的工厂,人们的体质日益下降。由于工业污染导致细菌大量繁殖,气温逐日增高,空气污浊不堪。随着时间的推移,这个曾给人们带来希望的幸福之岛变成了污浊之岛。终于有一天,恶劣的环境使海岛沉没了。
