主题:using bacteria to clean up oil spills

1. One of the critics' concerns is that a bacterial population, dramatically increased by feeding on an oil spill, will stay in the area after the spill is cleaned up. The bacteria could come to dominate the area, competing with native plants and animals for food and sunlight, The negative environmental effects of this could be significant.

1. First, it's very unlikely that the bacteria will come to dominate the ocean ecosystem after the spill is cleaned up. These bacteria have evolved to feed on one thing, oil They naturally thrive only in ocean habitats that contain oil from natural sources in an oil spill situation. Once the bacteria have broken down the oil into harmless chemicals, they quickly die off since their main food source crude oil has been depleted.

2. Second, bacteria at the oil spill site must be given extra nutrients (such as nitrogen and phosphorus) in order to grow reproduce, and do their job at an efficient rate. The problem is that the extra nutrients can leak outside of the area affected by the spill, and they may attract and feed other marine organisms. This can result in extremely rapid population growth among the other organisms, upsetting the balance of marine ecosystems near the spill.


2. Second, it's true that nutrients used to support oil-eating bacteria might upset the balance of the ecosystem. However, you have to compare this risk with the damage that is certain to take place in the ecosystem. If we fail to use bacteria and rely on more traditional methods of cleaning up oil spills, the traditional methods are pretty slow and allow toxic oil to sit in the ecosystem long enough to wipe out much of the life in it. This damage is typically long lasting. By comparison, damage caused by an excess of nutrients is typically not as great. And the affected ecosystem reestablishes its old balance faster.


3. Third, if oil-transporting companies start to believe bacteria can cheaply and efficiently clean up oil spills, they might start to pay less attention to spill prevention. This could lead to spills becoming more frequent. More frequent spills could cause lasting environmental damage because some harmful oil components are too complex for the bacteria to break down, and these components remain in the ocean even after a bacterial cleanup.

3. Finally, I' pretty sure oil transporting companies will remain very careful about preventing spills, even though the bacteria can make the cleanup of the spill faster and cheaper, there are other costs the companies have to cover when a spill occurs. For example, millions may have to be spent compensating local fisheries for the time they cannot fish in the affected waters. There may be other penalties and payments to compensate for potential loss of tourism and damage to other industries in the area. So the companies will still have plenty of motivation to keep very strict safety precautions to prevent oil spills.

  Doctor Diaz:Professor: Ensuring that high school students get the education they need is challenging. Some educators are recognizing that regular classes at school may not be enough to prepare students for careers and for life. Because of this, they recommend that all high school students be required to spend a specific number of hours learning useful skills outside school. Others think that this requirement is not appropriate for all students. Which view do you agree with? why?

  Andrew:I believe it's crucial to require high school students to learn skills outside the classroom. Many essential life and career skills, such as financial literacy or coding, are not sufficiently covered in school curriculums. By mandating such experiences, students will be better prepared for future challenges.

  Claire: While additional skills are valuable, forcing students to learn outside school can create unnecessary pressure. Not all students have the time or resources to pursue extra learning. Education should focus on providing a balanced, well- rounded curriculum that supports students' individual interests and allows them to grow at their own pace.

  范文:

  It is important to recognize that not all students should be forced to learn additional skills beyond the school curriculum. While it is beneficial for some students to pursue extracurricular activities or develop specialized skills, it is not necessary or practical for every student to do so. One of the reasons for this is that the school curriculum is already designed to provide students with a well-rounded education that covers a wide range of subjects and skills. Forcing students to learn additional skills on top of their already demanding workload can lead to burnout and overwhelm. It is important to prioritize the mental and emotional well-being of students by allowing them to focus on their core academic subjects and interests. Personally, I have experienced the pressure to learn additional skills beyond the school curriculum. When I was in high school, I was encouraged to join various clubs and activities in order to build my resume and stand out to colleges. While I did enjoy some of these extracurricular activities, I also felt overwhelmed and stretched thin trying to balance my academic workload with my other commitments. In the end, I realized that it was more important for me to focus on my academic studies and personal interests in order to excel and feel fulfilled. In conclusion, It is important to recognize and respect each student's individual strengths and interests, and to prioritize their well-being and academic success. By allowing students to focus on what truly matters to them, we can help them thrive and reach their full potential.
