    Attention, people of earth:

    The big news is out. Your best scientists have found there is life here, on our beautiful planet Venus(金星). Congratulations! But we have something to say: Stay away, no exploration(探索).

    We are serious. Stay away from us. If we wake up one morning and look out and sec you walking around in a spacesuit, we are going to be really ticked off.

    We mean no hostility (敌意):We're actually a very nice planet. It's just that we're seared by what you've done on the Earth. Earth looks terrible, and it is completely ruined(破坏). You've got health problems, environment problems and so on. That's why so many of you want to leave Earth for another planet.

    We've got good weather here, beautiful environment, little traffic and a little cost of living. On Venus, you can only buy a three-bedroom house for like S 13500. Crazy, right? But that doesn't mean you can come here. We can only deal with so much. If we start having you all up here, pretty soon, the Martians(火星人) and Jupiterians (木星人) are going to come too. Trust us: you don't want them sleeping on your sofa, drinking all your beer.

    Cool your enthusiasm (热情). We're not your in your plan. Venus is not Earth 2. We wish you the best in saving your planet.

    Sincerely,

    Venus
