How was your trip to the Amazon rainforest? W: It was like a spectacular dream; I saw so many more things than I ever could have imagined. The plants are so thick that you couldnt even see the sun or the sky above, and there are more shades of green than Ive seen before in my life! M: Wow, with so many plants, how did you get around? W: We rode a tour boat down the Amazon River it connects the whole jungle, and the local people use it to travel, too. Its amazing being somewhere so far away from technology, without any electricity for miles and miles. The local people dont even see the world outside of the jungle, never traveling more than 15 minutes up or down the river their whole lives! M: What an entirely different lifestyle! It must be completely different there. Did you get to meet any of the villagers? W: Oh yes! Heres the story: I finished a small blue bottle of wine and was about to throw it away. The tour guide told me to save it. Later, when we arrived at one of the villages, he introduced me to an old woman there who greeted our boat. I gave her the wine bottle as a gift. She looked at it like a great treasure, and she said that it would be an honored prize for her hut. I was shocked that something so small and common for me could mean so much! M: Emily, I suppose we really take modern life for granted. Q1: What does the woman say about the plants in the Amazon rainforest? A Q2: What does the woman say about the local people? D Q3: Why was the old woman in the village so excited? C Q4: What has the woman learned from her traveling experience? A Passage 1 I believe watching nature programs on television is not going to give us and our children a real experience of nature. On the contrary, they may distance us from nature actual nature even further. Because real nature experiences mean contact with nature. It means being with and within nature, to experience it with all five senses. True, TV programs give us joy but they will never be able to help us form a relationship with nature. We watch our small screens come alive with the vivid colors and we all let out “aahhhh ” and “wooooow”. But, never once will we feel the pleasure of being close to nature. Worse still the programs such as those on the Discovery Channel make nature seem so strange, and so far away, in the forests of the Amazon or in the wilds of Africa. Children may grow up without even realizing that the flowers, plants or a couple of trees in their backyard are nature and they are equally precious. The truth is nature is so close to us. We dont need to go anywhere far to enjoy such experiences. It is right there in our backyards. Or, in parks, gardens, forests, or national parks. All we need to do is make an effort to get closer to nature know it, appreciate it, and explore it. Feeling the soil under our feet and the wind in our hair; listening to the sound of the fallen leaves and taking in the smell of the wet soil all these are pure joy to the senses that we must experience.
