One day in 1819, 3,000 miles off the coast of Chile, in one of the mostremote regions of the Pacific Ocean, 20 American sailors watched their shipflood with seawater.
They'd been struck by a sperm whale, which had ripped a catastrophic holein the ship's hull. As their ship began to sink beneath the swells, the menhuddled together in three small whaleboats.
These men were 10,000 miles from home, more than 1,000 miles from thenearest scrap of land. In their small boats, they carried only rudimentarynavigational equipment and limited supplies of food and water.
These were the men of the whaleship Essex, whose story would later inspireparts of “Moby Dick.”
Even in today's world, their situation would be really dire, but thinkabout how much worse it would have been then.
No one on land had any idea that anything had gone wrong. No search partywas coming to look for these men. So most of us have never experienced asituation as frightening as the one in which these sailors found themselves, butwe all know what it's like to be afraid.
We know how fear feels, but I'm not sure we spend enough time thinkingabout what our fears mean.
As we grow up, we're often encouraged to think of fear as a weakness, justanother childish thing to discard like baby teeth or roller skates.
And I think it's no accident that we think this way. Neuroscientists haveactually shown that human beings are hard'wired to be optimists.
So maybe that's why we think of fear, sometimes, as a danger in and ofitself. “Don't worry,” we like to say to one another. “Don't panic.” In English,fear is something we conquer. It's something we fight.
It's something we overcome. But what if we looked at fear in a fresh way?What if we thought of fear as an amazing act of the imagination, something thatcan be as profound and insightful as storytelling itself?
It's easiest to see this link between fear and the imagination in youngchildren, whose fears are often extraordinarily vivid.
When I was a child, I lived in California, which is, you know, mostly avery nice place to live, but for me as a child, California could also be alittle scary.
I remember how frightening it was to see the chandelier that hung above ourdining table swing back and forth during every minor earthquake, and I sometimescouldn't sleep at night, terrified that the Big One might strike while we weresleeping.
And what we say about kids who have fears like that is that they have avivid imagination. But at a certain point, most of us learn to leave these kindsof visions behind and grow up.
We learn that there are no monsters hiding under the bed, and not everyearthquake brings buildings down. But maybe it's no coincidence that some of ourmost creative minds fail to leave these kinds of fears behind as adults.

地球看上去就像一個巨大的藍色玻璃球, 從高高的地球上空或從月球上望去,這顆行星熠熠生輝,閃閃發光。
地球上大洋大海里的蔚藍色的水構成了一幅激動人心的圖畫。 水是地球上的美麗之源、生命之源。 水是人們能在這顆行星上生存的根本。 到處都有水。
水深藏于地底下的巖層里、在天然蓄水區里. 從真正的意思上說,是水維持著地球的生命。
世界的最后一滴水將是人類的眼淚。我們中國是12個貧水國之一,由于人們的浪費,水源越來越少了。
但是生活中還有許多浪費水的現象,比如;有些小朋友買來水槍到處射水,還有一些學生洗完碗或洗完手,都不關水龍頭,浪費了許多水……最近云南貴州高原那里長時間持續干旱,使那里居民生存面臨著嚴重威脅,針對這個問題,我們中國13億要養成節約用水的意識。因此,我現在向大家呼吁:‘‘珍惜每一滴水,讓地球媽媽不再哭泣。
