摘要
亲爱的人类：当你们在日历上再一次划掉“世界地球日”，心满意足于至少在这24个小时内曾将我挂念于心时，我想提醒你们，我病了。我过去并非只在4月22日“病休”，正如你们许多人费心铭记的那样。但我是患了一种不断发展的疾病，它正年复一年、周复一周、日复一日、时时刻刻地逐步恶化。
Dear Homo Sapiens1),As you mark off2)another"Earth Day"in your calendars,content that for at least24hours I remained in your thoughts,I wanted to remind you that I am sick.I wasn't just"Off sick"on22nd April,as so many of you took time to remember;but I have an ongoing illness which is getting worse year by year,week by week,day by day and hour by hour.
