One day，some of the girls in our neighborhood...

One day，some of the girls in our neighborhood started acting a bit strangely towards me．They　 　 　 talking to me．After a day or so of this，I finally　 　 　 what was going on．I'd said something to a（n）　 　 　　 girl the night before that she didn't like．I'd had a few　　 　 　 that night, and like everyone I sometimes say things that　 　 　 severer than I mean them to．

Anyway，it seemed that the girl had told many of her friends，and now they were all　 　 　 at me．They found a great　 　 　 to think of all the other supposed“crimes”I'd committed over the past year． 　 　 they'd all really liked me before, suddenly they　 　 　 I was a really bad guy．

This was a difficult problem．I　 　 　 to get along well with these people and I liked them all．I didn't want them to　 　 　 me because of something stupid I'd said when I was drunk．It didn't　 　 much whether they or I was wrong．All I wanted was things to be　 　 　 to normal again．

So I wrote the popular girl a note　 　 　 saying：“I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings．I didn't mean to”．And that was it．The problem was solved．　 　 ．the girls who were angry with me now liked me　 　　 than ever．They felt I'd done something　 　 　 in admitting I was wrong and apologizing．

Learn how and when to　 　 　 ．Often，the pride and stubbornness you hold onto by refusing to back down isn't worth the　 　 　 of a lasting argument．An apology can　 　 　 for healing a difficult situation．And often, people will think better of you for it．

When I was young, my father had one of the first telephones in our neighborhood. I remember the shiny box on the wall. But I was too little to reach it, I could only listen to my mother talk on it.

I discovered that inside the wonderful box lived an amazing person whose name was Information Please. There was nothing she did not know.

One day my mother went out. I accidentally hurt my finger when I was playing with a hammer. I walked around the house sucking my hurting finger, finally seeing the telephone. Quickly I dragged a chair over and climbed up.

“Information Please,” I spoke into the receiver. A click or two and a small clear voice spoke into my ear, “Information.”

“I hurt my finger…” I cried into the phone.

“Isn’t your mother home?” came the question.

“Nobody’s home but me.” I sobbed.

“Are you bleeding?” the voice asked.

“No,” I replied. “I hit my finger with the hammer and it hurts.”

“Can you open your icebox?” she asked. I said I could.

“Then take a little piece of ice and hold it to your finger.” Said the voice.

After that, I called “Information Please” for everything. I asked her for help with my geography and she told me where Philadelphia was. She helped me with my math. She told me her name was Sally.

Then there was the time my pet canary (金丝雀) died. I called “Information Please” and told Sally the sad story. “Why is it that birds sing so beautifully and bring joy to all families, only to end up as a pile of feathers?” She listened, then said quietly, “Paul, always remember that there are other worlds to sing in.” Somehow I felt better.

One day when I called “Information Please” again, a different voice answered “Information.”

I asked for Sally. “Are you a friend?” she said.

“Yes.” I answered

“I’m sorry to have to tell you this,” she said. “She died five days ago.” Before I could hang up she said, “Wait a minute. Did you say your name was Paul?”

“Yes!”

“Well, Sally left a message for you. The note said, “Tell him I still say there are other worlds to sing in. He’ll know what I mean.” I thanked her and hung up. I knew what Sally meant.

1.When the author hurt his finger, he rang because______.

A. he believed that the telephone knew everything.

B. the telephone could tell him a doctor’s number

C. his mother was on the other end of the telephone

D. he was once told to ask for help in this way

One of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might some day get lost in a “sea of technology” rather than experiencing the natural world. Fear – producing TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child’s play.

Each of us had a place in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decline in parks use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment（蚕食）?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.

Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive（认知的）skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents—and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component and that play in nature fosters（培养）leadership by the smartest, not by the toughest. Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three – year – old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more.

Kids are not to blame. They are over – protected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time, but repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite（仪式）of passage.

Everyone from developers to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that cement（增强）love, respect and need for the landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.

1..

According to Paragraph 2, the writer thinks that_____.

A. we are the last generation to experience nature.

B. the author of Last Child in the Woods don’t defend parks against encroachment

2..

According to the passage, children without experiencing nature will________.

A. keep a high sense of wonder

B. be over – protected by their parents

C. be less healthy both physically and mentally

D. change wild places and creatures for the better

3..

. According to the author, children’s breaking an arm is________.

A. the fault on the part of their parents

B. the natural experience in their growing up

C. the result of their own carelessness in play

D. the effect of their repetitive stress from computers

4..

A. blame children for getting lost in computer games

C. show his concern about children’s lack of experience in nature

D. inspire children to keep the sense of wonder about things around
