Josh just learned a forest fire broke out on Hong Kongs Dayu Mountain. Maggie heard the local government sent firefighters and helicopters to put out the fire. Maggie believes there is no point in stopping the fire since it is a phase in the natural cycle. Forests get rid of old debris to make room for new growth.

Moreover, the blaze is a threat to human lives.Josh: Maggie, Ive just read a fire destroyed much of the forest on Day Mountain in Hong Kong the other day.Maggie: Ive heard that too. The local government sent firefighters and even helicopters to try to put out the fire. But I think they shouldnt have tried.Josh: You mean, they should just let the forests burn? How can they stand by and watch peoples homes go up in flames?Maggie: Some experts argue that forest fires are a phase in the cycle of nature, and we shouldnt interfere. Except, of course, to save lives.Josh: It seems wrong to allow fires to burn up good timber. What a waste that would be! You see, the fire-hit area extends nearly 4,00 square meters.Maggie: But thats natures way of cleaning up the debris that collects on the forest floor and creating space for new growth.Josh: That may be true, but it still seems wrong to just let fires burn. They destroyed not only timber, but many rare butterflies living thereMaggie: Anyway, there have been verdant forests for millions of years without mans help in combating fires.Josh: You may be correct, but I still think its wrong to not put out forest fires. If too many trees are destroyed, the very existence of human beings is threatened.3. 乔刚了解到香港的大禹山发生森林火警。玛姬听到当地政府派消防队员和直升飞机，把火扑灭了。Maggie:认为有没有点停止火，因为它是一个自然周期的一个阶段。森林摆脱旧的碎片，使新的增长空间。乔不同意因为火灾命中面积扩大近 4000 平方米，和无数珍稀蝴蝶被杀害在火中，这是一个巨大的损失。此外，大火是对人类生命的威胁。Josh： 玛吉，我刚才读的大火烧毁了很多在香港一天山上森林前几天。Maggie: 以前听过那太的。当地政府派消防队员和甚至直升机，试图把火扑灭了。但我认为他们不应该尝试。Josh： 你的意思是，他们只是应该让烧伤的森林吗？他们怎么可以站着看人民院转到了火焰中?Maggie: 有些专家认为，森林火灾的性质，周期的一个阶段，我们不应该干涉。除外，当然，以拯救生命。Josh： 看来错了，让大火燃烧掉好木材。什么浪费会 ！您所看到的火打区延伸近 4,00 平方米。Maggie: ，但这就是大自然的方式清理森林的地面收集的碎片，并创造新的增长空间。Josh： ，可能是真的，但似乎仍然错了，要让大火烧伤。他们摧毁不仅木材，住在那里的许多珍稀蝴蝶Maggie: 反正有苍翠的森林数百万年没有人的帮助打击大火。Josh： 您可能是正确的但我仍认为是错不了森林火灾。如果太多的树木被毁，人类的生存受到威胁。4.
