WELCOME UNIT Unit 6 At one with nature Period 5 　Writing 课时作业（六） 小精读 目录 CONTENTS 1 2 课时作业（六） Ⅰ　阅读 The “no­mow (不割草)” movement is catching people's attention, and I've joined it after having the luck to see how beautiful a natural meadow (草地) can be. Several years ago, I moved to a tiny town in Oregon. When we pulled up to the house where we would be staying, I took one look at what I saw as the overgrown grass. The sea of grass took my breath away. “This is going to be a huge job，” I thought to myself. Ⅰ Ⅱ Ⅲ 目录 I grew up in New York. My grandfather taught me how to mow our lawn (草坪) when I was 8 years old. And I took care of that lawn until I left for college. Later, I bought my own house in Connecticut, and the house came with a small lawn. By then I had been writing for Audubon magazine and had learned how pointless lawns were. I wanted to build a butterfly garden and plant some plants. I was sick of mowing. But I kept the lawn, as I was concerned about the future resale value of a house without a back lawn. Ⅰ Ⅱ Ⅲ 目录 Once I had spent several weeks getting used to Oregon life, learning the local culture and finally settling down, I realized the meadow that surrounded my new home wasn't an untidy lawn, but one of the local types of ecosystems. And in my first weeks enjoying my new favorite place in the world, I was pleased with the huge amount of life the meadow supported. Ⅰ Ⅱ Ⅲ 目录 There are lots of insects, but that only means lots of healthy food for the songbirds that I now share my home with. Because of the birds, many insects are eaten, so I've not had any insect problems. Contrary to what many people expect from high grasses, I've found that I have fewer harmful insects, because it is a balanced system. There are butterflies, vegetables and beautiful wildflowers. The meadow is never the same. It changes from week to week because it's a living system. 篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者搬到新家，从最初的修剪杂草丛生的草坪到最终逐渐喜欢上这片草地带来的更加平衡的生态系统。 Ⅰ Ⅱ Ⅲ 目录 1．How did the author feel when sh
