新闻开始啦:


Tasmanian Forests: Coalition rebuffed over proposal to cut world heritage area


The International Union for Conservation ofNature has recommended against(recommended后加一个that,更准确地表达了立场,逻辑清晰,开门见山)removing vast swathes of Tasmanian forest from world heritage protection, in an embarrassing setback (8分高大上,原意为 aproblem that makes progress more diffcult or success less likely,这里和政府一起出现,所以适用语境正式严肃)for the Australian government.


The IUCN,the world’slargest conservation organisation, said overnight in Paris there was no ecological justificationfor (小伙伴们可以把ecological换成其他相关形容词去佐证自己观点, e.g. there was no financial justification for arts funding) the removal of 74,000 hectares of Tasmanian forest from the world heritage zone.


The IUCN's report said the proposed removal was (还记得卡尔老师百搭的用法吗? the proposla in question)"clearly inappropriate for consideration as a minor (漂亮的量词,及其准确的表达,这就是雅思评分标准LR的要求!这里的语境和所形容的对象只适合minor) boundary modification". It would "impact negatively on the outstanding universal value of the property (如何套用这样好的结构呢?简单来说AB 的整体价值有负面影响。可以考虑用在环保和科技话题中。)" and "reduce integrity of key naturalattributes".


It criticised the government's proposal for providing "relatively(量词)scant information" to support its case and said the way the boundaries had been drawn for the proposed excision appeared "somewhat 量词,形容程度+1arbitrary".


"The proposals also appear to reinstate threats that have previously been noted as being of concern by the World Heritage Committee, such as increasing the potential foradjoining logging to impact the property, or create additional risks in relation to fire management," the report said.


The recommendation is a humiliating outcome for the Coalition government, which pledged to redraw Tasmania’s world heritage map, just a year after the previous Labor governmentgot world heritage approval for an extension of the protected area.


Unesco's WorldHeritage Committee still has to make a final decision on the government’s request for a boundary change, but the IUCN’s recommendation will heavily influencethe outcome. A separate recommendation will be made on the cultural, rather than (很好的结构) natural, significance of Tasmania's protected forests.


The Coalition applied to remove 74,000ha from the world heritage area,claiming (卡尔老师坚持同学们用出来的结构:others dispute this view, claiming that) Labor’s nomination of 170,000ha was rushed, failed to consult local communities and was damaging for Tasmania’s economy (可以套用,注意结合语境。如,Some study have found that inequality is damaging to economic growth).


The government argues there are more than 100 “degraded”(卡尔老师教给我们的land degredation 大家一定还记得吧) areas from previous logging within the protected zone, meaning it should be opened up again to the forestry industry (林业正确表达).


However, a Senate inquiry published last week concluded that less than 5% of the 74,000ha(Task1 的结构出现啦)had ever been disturbed, and degraded areas did not justifying the delisting in any case. The committee, which split downparty lines, said the application was “fundamentally flawed” and would damage Australia’s international reputation.


The IUCN report found that about 85% of the area proposed for excision was natural forest, and 45% was old-growth forest. Only 10% of the area had been regenerating from logging since 1960, and only about 4% of the area could be regarded as having been heavily disturbed (disturbxi形容被污染或被影响,绝对的impress考官啦), it found.
