到底环不环保，我看还是仁者见仁，智者见智吧。如果从长远来看，它可能相当绿色；但放在今天，它就不那么绿色了。电动汽车不是烧汽油的，所以它相当绿色，这没错。没有引擎，没有油箱，没有废气排放，它基本上是零排放的。但是如果考虑到汽车对环境的影响，就不能只看排气管了。特斯拉不是靠空气跑动的，它用电，而电来自不同的燃料如核电、天然气、还有最污染环境的煤。

Whether it is environmentally friendly in the end or not, I still think people will have differing viewpoints. If you view it from the long-term, perhaps it is fairly green; but for the present, it isn't that green. Electric cars don't burn gas, so they are quite green. That's true. There is no engine, no gas tank, no exhaust emission. It has basically zero emissions. But if you consider the effect of the car on the environment, you can't just look at exhaust pipes. Tesla doesn't run on air, it uses electricity. And electricity comes from different fuels: for example, nuclear power, natural gas, and coal, which pollutes the environment the most.

后来的进化过程就比较顺理成章了。有了手，就可以使用工具。当天然的工具不能满足需求的时候，他们就自己制造工具。脑子是越用越灵活的，这句话很有道理。在做这些事情的时候，他们的脑子也逐渐变发达，跟现代的人越来越接近了。

The following evolutionary process was quite logical. After having hands, they could use tools. When natural tools couldn't satisfy their needs, they simply built their own tools. 'The mind becomes more and more flexible'; that statement has a lot of truth to it. When they were doing these things, their minds were also slowly developing. They were becoming closer and closer to the people of our time.
