    It can be said with certainty that it is necessary for humans to keep a balance between man and nature, for we live with nature and in nature on the earth.
    But in the recent years, human activities such as the production of steel factories, the people’s hunting activities have made the environment damaged badly. Because of these, the environment and the nature are getting worse and worse, which requires our attention. If this continues, it is likely that humans can’t survive in the natural disasters such as an earthquake someday. That is to say, humans may die because we pay no or less attention to the environment.
    Therefore, nothing is more important than the fact that we should take action to protect the animals, the environment and the nature! First of all, we should stop hunting rare animals for their fur and bones. Fewer killings mean more survival chances. Next, we should keep ourselves from littering in the rivers in order that the rivers can be kept clean. Last but not least, we should call on everybody around us to make a difference with us in doing something for the Mother Nature. If everybody does this, I do believe that the rare animals will soon have big families, the air will soon be more flesh, the rivers will soon be cleaner and the environment will become more and more beautiful.
    That’s all for my views on balancing the relationship between man and nature.  Thank you for your reading.
