On Sunday, April 22, people all over the world take time out to appreciate(珍惜)the earth that we all share. It’s Earth Day, a special day to learn about our planet(星球)and how to take care of it.

In 1970, the first Earth Day was celebrated. More than 20 million people in cities all over the US took part in.

The story goes that some time ago, a man punished (惩罚) his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll (卷) of gold paper. The family was not rich and he became angry when the child tried to decorate (装饰) a box to put under the Christmas tree. However, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, “This is for you, Daddy.”

The man felt sorry for what he had done the day before, but felt angry again when he found out the box was empty. He shouted at her, “Don’t you know, when you give someone a present, there should be something inside?” The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and cried, “Oh, Daddy, it’s not empty at all.
