A young lion prince is born in Africa, thus making his uncle Scar the second in line to the throne. Scar plots with the hyenas to kill King Mufasa and Prince Simba, thus making himself King. The King is killed and Simba is led to believe by Scar that it was his fault, and so flees the kingdom in shame. After years of exile he is persuaded to return home to overthrow the usurper and claim the kingdom as his own thus completing the "Circle of Life".译为年幼的小狮子王在非洲大地诞生了,这（它的诞生）使他的叔叔刀疤只能位居第二的王座.刀疤密谋着联合豺狼杀害国王木法沙和王子辛巴,这样他自己就会成为国王.国王被杀害了而辛巴却被刀疤欺骗认为是自己害死了父亲（木法沙）,于是辛巴充满内疚的离开了王国.经过数年的流浪,他被说服回到故乡去打倒篡夺者（刀疤）,并且正式宣布王国是属于自己的,从而辛巴完成了“生命的轮回”.《狮子王》（The Lion King）是迪士尼出品，由罗杰·艾勒斯、罗伯·明可夫联袂执导，马修·布罗德里克、詹姆斯·厄尔·琼斯、杰瑞米·艾恩斯等参与配音的一部歌舞冒险动画**。影片主要讲述了小狮子王辛巴在众多热情的朋友的陪伴下，不但经历了生命中最光荣的时刻，也遭遇了最艰难的挑战，最后终于成为了森林之王，也在周而复始生生不息的自然中体验出生命的真义。影片评价《狮子王》最早的名字是《丛林之王》，影片描述的是非洲大草原的动物王国的生活，实际上它的主题超越任何文化和国界，具有深刻的内涵——生命的轮回、万物的盛衰，一切都必须依照自然规律。爱、成长、生命、自我救赎这类有深远意义的感性主题，在色彩鲜艳耀眼的非洲缀锦上，如同金子般散发出亮丽的永恒光彩。不仅必须给人以场景印象的审美体验，听觉上的愉悦享受，而且心灵上的震撼更是一个重要的环节。身体是理性的，生命却是感性的。理性的身体之间只有同异的比对，但感性的生命之间往往会产生很多共鸣。影片中，彭彭和丁满一句“卡库拉玛塔塔”就能治愈辛巴内心的悲伤，恐怕理性上这似乎有些不可思议，可是对于观众而言，这便已然成为是一种精神，或者是一种态度，至少也算是一种符号。
地球是人类的共同家园，但人类的活动却对地球造成了严重的破坏。生物赖以生存的森林、湖泊、湿地等正以惊人的速度消失；煤炭、石油、天然气等不可再生能源因过度开采而面临枯竭；能源燃烧排放的大量温室气体导致全球气候变暖，由此引发的极地冰盖融化、海平面上升等问题威胁到人类的生存发展。 举办“世界地球日”活动的宗旨是唤起人类爱护地球、保护家园的意识，促进资源开发与环境保护的协调发展。中国从20世纪90年代起，每年4月22日都举办世界地球日活动，并根据当年的情况确定活动主题。

如果大家想想75%的家长在那个年龄的时候都能在睡前听故事，那么你们可能就会深思。
Clearly, we do not have to ask ourselves where all of this pain, anger and violent behavior comes from.

When I was very young I remember that we had this crazy mutt of a dog named "Black Girl," a mix of wolf and retriever.
我记得在我小的时候，我们养了一条名叫“黑妞”的又疯又笨的狗，这种狗是狼和猎狗的杂交品种。
