Last year, I visited a village in the countryside where people live in perfect harmony with nature. It was a memorable experience that taught me a lot. The village is surrounded by green mountains and clear rivers. The air there is much ________ than that in the city. People in the village grow their own vegetables without using chemicals. They believe that nature provides everything we need, and we should respect it. Every family has a small garden where they plant flowers and fruit trees. The flowers attract bees and butterflies, and the fruit trees provide food for birds. It's a wonderful cycle of life. One old farmer told me about the 24 Solar Terms. He said that their farming activities are all based on these terms. For example, they sow seeds in Spring Equinox and harvest crops in Autumn Equinox. This is how their ancestors lived with nature for thousands of years. It's amazing to see how well they understand ________. The villagers also pay great attention to protecting the environment. They collect rainwater for irrigation and reuse waste water. They never cut down trees randomly. When a tree is old, they plant a new one in its place. This way, the mountains remain green and the rivers stay clean. During my stay, I helped the villagers pick vegetables and feed chickens. I learned that living with nature doesn't mean being primitive. Instead, it means ________ nature's rules and taking care of it. We humans are part of nature, not its masters. If we all learn to live in harmony with nature, our planet ________ a better place for everyone. This village has set a great example for us. (　 　)11.

It has a history of more than 2,000 years and shows the wisdom of living with nature. In this system, rice fields are used to grow rice and raise fish at the same time. The fish swim in the water of the rice fields, eating insects and weeds that harm the rice. In return, the fish excrement provides natural fertilizer for the rice. This creates a balanced ecosystem where neither chemicals nor artificial fertilizers are needed. The rice-fish farming system has many advantages. First, it increases the output of food. Farmers can harvest both rice and fish from the same field. Second, it protects the environment. Without chemicals, the soil and water remain clean. Third, it saves water because the same water is used for both rice and fish. Today, this traditional system is still used in many parts of China. It has also been recognized by the United Nations as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System. More and more people are realizing the value of living with nature. The rice-fish farming system teaches us that we can get along well with nature and benefit from it at the same time. (　 　)26. How long has the rice-fish farming system existed? A．For less than 1,000 years. B．For more than 2,000 years. C．For 3,000 years. D．For 5,000 years. (　 　)27. What do fish eat in the rice fields? A．Rice plants. B．Insects and weeds. C．Artificial fertilizers. D．Chemicals. (　 　)28. What is the advantage of the rice-fish farming system? A．It uses a lot of chemicals. B．It pollutes the soil and water. C．It increases food output. D．It wastes a lot of water. (　 　)29. What has the United Nations recognized the rice-fish farming system as? A．A new agricultural method. B．A Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System. C．A way to waste water. D．A system that harms the environment. (　 　)30. What does the rice-fish farming system teach us? A．We can live in harmony with nature and benefit from it. B．We should use more chemicals in farming. C．Rice and fish can't be raised together. D．Nature is our enemy. C Living with nature is a way of life that benefits both humans and the planet. Here are some examples of how people around the world live in harmony with nature. In Iceland, people use geothermal energy for heating and electricity. Geothermal energy is a kind of renewable energy from the Earth's interior. It doesn't produce pollution and is endless. Most homes and buildings in Iceland are heated by geothermal hot water. This helps reduce the use of fossil fuels and protect the environment. In Japan, people practice "satoyama" — a traditional way of managing forests and farmlands. They grow rice in the lowlands and keep forests in the hills. The forests provide wood and water, while the farmlands produce food. People also protect wild animals and plants in the satoyama areas. This creates a balanced ecosystem that has been maintained for centuries. In Costa Rica, people focus on protecting rainforests. The country has set aside more than 25% of its land as national parks and protected areas. Tourists from all over the world come to visit these rainforests, which brings income to the country. Costa Rica also uses hydropower and wind power for electricity. It shows that protecting nature can also promote economic development. 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。(其中有一项为多余选项) 31．________ It benefits both humans and the planet. 32．________ People use geothermal energy to protect the environment. 33．________ People practice "satoyama" to maintain a balanced ecosystem. 34．________ People protect rainforests and use green energy. 35．________ These examples show that living with nature is possible and beneficial.
