However, they have also won the hearts of young people. “Zoo walk” has become a popular activity among young Chinese people. These days, zoos from the whole country have welcomed a larger number of daily visitors. The top places include Beijing Wildlife Park, Nanjing Hongshan Forest Zoo, Shanghai Wild Animal Park and Guangzhou Chimelong Safari Park. Each zoo’s related hashtag (话题标签) got over millions of views online, and the hashtag “zoo” reached about 2 billion views. Animal stars are a main reason for young people’s visiting. Many zoos are recording interesting videos of their animals and sharing them on social media. Some of these animals become quite popular. At Nanjing Hongshan Forest Zoo, for example, a white-faced monkey named Dudu, famous for its ugly appearance but good character, became a local attraction. Shen Zhijun, director of the zoo, believes zoos like Hongshan are getting popular among young people. The reason is they provide a sense of relaxation. Today’s young people are ready to be close to nature and animals. Modern zoos offer them a space to relax and leave the stress of life behind. The trend of the “zoo walk” has taken the young people of China by storm. Zoos are getting creative, introducing movie nights, live music, art shows to make visits more interesting. So if you have time and a chance, why not have a “zoo walk”? 1．Who likes to visit the zoo? 2．How many views did the hashtag “zoo” reach? 3．What is the white-faced monkey named Dudu famous for? 4．What activities make visits to the zoos more interesting? 5．Would you like to try “zoo walk”?

After that, they’ll become assistance dogs and help people in need. An assistance dog can do many things, like turning on lights or emptying washing machines. They can also bark if their human friend falls out of their wheelchair. They are good “doctors” for people with autism (自闭症), too. Many autistic children have trouble seeing dangers. They may run off at any time, even on busy roads. At these times, an assistance dog will quickly lie down, using its weight to control the child and keep him or her safe. When an autistic child feels sad, the dog will put its chin on the child’s hand, as if to say, “Come and pat me.” This way, the child can feel much better. Back in China, assistance dogs are also helping to treat things like depression. “People with mental health problems have trouble talking to others. When they spend time with dogs, they feel better. This makes their treatments easier and better,” Zhang Jun, a doctor at West China Hospital of Sichuan University, told People’s Daily. 1．How long will the seven dogs study at the puppy kindergarten? 2．Why do these puppies get trained? 3．What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? 4．How does an assistance dog keep an autistic safe? 5．How do people with mental health problems feel around dogs? Passage 3 (24-25七年级下·江苏连云港灌云县·期末)根据短文内容，回答下列问题（每题答案不超过5个词）。 Beavers (河狸) are small animals but they can do big things! Some beavers made a dam (水坝) on a river in the Czech Republic (捷克共和国)! Seven years ago, the people living near the river wanted to make a new dam to stop the water. They wanted to spend about 9 million yuan on it but the idea didn’t go well. Luckily, some beavers made the dam for free. They look for rocks, mud, and wood and put them together to make a natural dam. Beavers have sharp teeth, so they can chew through (啃穿) a big tree in only two hours. The whole family work together. Some chew trees, some look for rocks and mud, and others put everything together. They need wood for the main part of the dam. In fast waters, the dam needs to be strong and tall, while in drier places, it’s longer and wider. Beavers didn’t build the dam to help the people but to make a so-called “beaver pond (池塘)”. This wet area helps the animals find food and stay safe. 1．Why did the people living near the river want to make a new dam? 2．How soon can beavers chew through a big tree? 3．What do beavers need to make the main part of the dam? 4．What is the dam like in drier places? 5．What do you think of beavers? 主题02 人与自我——健康与运动 Passage 1 (24-25七年级下·江苏苏州吴中、吴江、相城区·期末)请认真阅读下面短文，回答短文后给出的问题，并把答案写在答题卡相应的位置。 Now we live a happy life.

Passage 2 (24-25七年级下·江苏南京秦淮区·期末)根据短文意思和首字母提示，写出一个完整正确的单词。 Nature is full of such wonderful landscapes, outdoor fun and cute animals. Why not go outside and get close to nature yourself? Here is some advice for you. Spending time outdoors can be a great way to enjoy nature and forget all of the real-life problems that are weighing you down. If you are not good at sports, here are some simple ways for you to enjoy the outdoors. Collecting  shells (贝壳) is a way for you to enjoy the outdoors without making yourself tired. If you want to have a nice day at the beach, take a long walk and pick up any shell that interests you. You can even get a shell collecting guidebook or go online and try to check the kind of shells that you found. Skipping rocks (打水漂) is another fun way to hang out near water. All you need is to pick up some flat stones that are at least the size of a half dollar. Then hold the rock between your fingers, keeping it level with (平行于) the ground. Next, throw the rock toward the water, making it hit the water’s surface so it jumps further away from you. Once you become a master, you can have rock skipping games with your friends. You can also write a poem about nature. Go outside and find a comfortable place to sit. All you need is a notebook and a pen. Start writing about what you see—even if you’re just looking at a few trees or an open field. You needn’t be a great poet to write something meaningful or show your writing to anyone. Writing poems about nature can be a peaceful and joyful experience. No matter which way you choose to enjoy nature, when you leave your phone and the Internet behind, you’ll feel the wonder and beauty of the oceans, mountains and forests around you, and better understand how life is meant to be lived.

Years ago, most Chinese people rode bikes to work or study. Only a small group of them thought it was a sport. But now more and more people feel more than that and get fun from it. Cycling is becoming popular. Bike riders share their favourite ways and health tips about cycling on some apps like Xiaohongshu or Sina Weibo. On Xiaohongshu, there are over 2.5 million people talking about cycling and on Weibo, people look through the topic of cycling more than 700 million times. A bicycle company says one of its shops sells more bicycles, about 20% to 30% more than the same period a year earlier. Now, many cities in China build cycle-only paths and China has many cycling activities, like the Qinghai Lake Cycling Race every July. People from all over the world take part in it. Why do so many people go cycling? For one thing, more people put their health in the first place. For another thing, their need for outdoor exercise becomes stronger. Cycling seems to be a good way for people to run away from the busy city life. It makes people feel they are outside, near beautiful lakes and hills.

Mother and Peter and Phyllis were standing in a row, together singing. And there were twelve candles on the table, one for each of Bobbie’s years. “Three cheers for our Bobbie!” they shout very loudly when Bobbie came in. “Now, dear,” said Mother, “look at your presents.” A green and red needle-book from Phyllis, a silver brooch of Mother’s, and a blue glass vase from Mrs. Viney. But the nicest thing was that the big table was almost covered with flowers. “And now look at the table,” cried Peter. “We got all the flowers from the station. Peter made it like a map of the railway.” Mum said. “That’s my present,” said Peter, putting an engine (火车头) full of sweets on the table in front of her. “Oh, Peter!” cried Bobbie, “not your own little broken engine that you love?” “Oh, no,” said Peter at once, “not the engine. Only the sweets.” “You’re a brick (好心人),” cried Bobbie; “it’s a wonderful present.” She said no more aloud.

He was confused (困惑的), so he went up to his mother and asked, “Why was I born with a shell that grew so hard and heavy?” His mother said, “Because we don’t have bones to hold us up. We can only move slowly, so we need a shell to protect us.” The baby snail asked again, “The caterpillar has no bones, either, and she can’t move quickly. Why can she live without a shell?” The mother snail answered, “That’s because a caterpillar will become a butterfly. She can fly high into the sky. Then the sky can protect (保护) her.” The baby snail had one more question, “But the earthworm moves like us. He has no bones and he won’t turn into a butterfly. Why doesn’t he carry a hard and heavy shell?” His mother said, “He can dig a hole and hide in the ground, and then the earth can protect him.” The baby snail then cried, “We are so poor! We have no protection from the sky or from the ground!” His mother smiled at him, “That’s why we have a shell. My dear, imagine that if we don’t have the shells, what will happen to us? Hot sun will dry out our bodies and we’ll have nowhere to sleep. What’s worse, we’ll die in the heavy rain. How terrible it is! We don’t depend on (依靠) the sky or the ground for protection. We should depend on ourselves.” 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。每小题答案不超过6个单词。 1．Why were snails born with shells? 2．What does the baby snail think of his shell? 3．What will the caterpillar become when she grows up? 4．Where can an earthworm hide? 5．What does the story want to tell us? 主题01 人与社会——科普知识 Passage 1 (24-25七年级下·江苏苏州常熟市·期末)请认真阅读短文，用英语回答短文后的问题，并将答案写在答题卷标有题号的横线上。 You’re standing next to a road. You hear a car. You know it’s coming from the left because the sound gets to your left car first. Do all animals hear in the same way? Bats hear with their ears, but they also send out a high sound with their mouth or nose. When this sound hits something, echoes come back. The bat now knows where the thing is and how big it is. We call this echolocation(回声定位). Snakes don’t have ears, and they can’t hear. So how does a snake know when an animal is walking near it? It can feel the ground moving. So if you are in snake country, don’t walk quietly. When a snake knows something as big as a person is near, it usually goes away. If it doesn’t hear you coming, you may walk on it. And it doesn’t like that! So bats, and some people, can “see” because they hear. And snakes can “hear” because they feel. Can some people hear things we usually see? Yes! Some people can hear colours! When they listen to music, the different notes have different colours. Franz Liszt (1811-1886) was the best piano player of his time. He also wrote music and was an orchestra conductor(指挥家). The musicians didn’t understand when he said things like, “Please, play this a little more blue. This music has to be blue. Not so pink, please.” At first they thought this was funny. Then they understood that when Liszt heard music, he also saw colours. 1．What can a bat know from the echoes? 2．How do snakes know when danger is near? 3．If you could “hear” colours, which colour would sound special to you? Why? would sound special to me because Passage 2 (24-25七年级下·江苏常州·期末)阅读短文，回答问题。 Some deserts have a magical wonder—singing sand dunes (沙丘). These special dunes can make surprising and amazing sounds. Not every sand dune can sing—only the ones in places like China’s Gobi Desert, the Sahara Desert, and some deserts in America. People can hear the sounds from very far away, sometimes lasting for several minutes. Some dunes even make different musical sounds, depending on how fast you move down the dunes! When the wind blows strongly or when people move down these dunes, the sand makes deep, musical noises. Scientists say this happens because the sand grains (沙粒) are all very similar in size and shape. When they move, they rub (摩擦) each other and make these special sounds. The best time to hear the singing is on sunny days when the sand is very dry. Many visitors love moving down the dunes to make the sand sing! This natural wonder shows how amazing our planet is. Next time you think deserts are just hot and quiet places, remember—some can put on a musical show! Wouldn’t you love to visit one and make the sand sing for you? 1．How long can the singing sounds last? 2．When is the best time to hear the singing? 3．What do visitors enjoy doing to hear the singing? Passage 3 (24-25七年级下·江苏盐城盐都区·期末) Zheng was a famous artist in ancient China. People came from everywhere to see his paintings. Zheng was proud of his paintings—maybe too proud. He thought he was the best artist in the world. One day, Zheng heard that the Emperor wanted to find an artist to draw for him. So, Zheng went to the palace with his paintings. Many other artists were there, but Zheng was sure that the Emperor would like his paintings best. But when he showed his works to the Emperor’s advisor, the old wise man just smiled. “Go to the Li River,” he said. “The best artist lives there. You can learn a lot from her.” Zheng was very angry, but he packed his bags and travelled to the Li River. He got to a village and asked a woman, “Where does the best artist live?” The woman smiled and pointed to the river. The next morning, Zheng took a boat and started his journey to find the best artist in the world. The small boat travelled quietly down the river, past forests, mountains, and waterfalls. Then, as evening came, the sky and water turned a beautiful blue color. It was so wonderful that Zheng began to cry. And then he understood: the best artist in the world is Nature. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 1．How did Zheng feel about his works at first? 2．Why did Zheng go to the palace? 3．What was the old man’s advice to Zheng? 4．What made Zheng cry at last? 5．Who is the best artist in the world according to the last paragraph? 主题02 人与自我——哲理感悟 Passage 1 (24-25七年级下·江苏南京联合体·期末)请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中第1—5小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。 Science shows that helping others can make you feel good. The key is to find the way that works for you. There’s a Chinese saying that goes: “If you want happiness for an hour, take a short sleep. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, get rich. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.” Giving can feel great. And as we learn early, it’s better to give than to receive (获得). Plus, the more you give, the more you receive meaning, and happiness. Follow these tips: 1. Follow your heart. It’s not how much you give. It’s how much love you put into giving. Find and support the idea that best matches your values. 2. Give your time. The gift of time is often more valuable to the receiver than the gift of money. We don’t all have the same amount of money, but we all have time. We can give some of this time to help others — a few hours each day, or a few days each year. 3. Help groups with clear goals. Michael Norton, a professor at Harvard Business School, says that “giving to an organization that clearly knows what they’re going to do with your money brings more happiness.” 4. Remember yourself. Psychologist Adam Grant advises giving to others, but keeping your personal needs in mind. You matter too! Happiness is found in helping others. Even small acts create big happiness in your life.

But I kept going over the exciting story in my mind. The book was full of magic. But Charlie's happy family was the most magical part of the story. Charlie's home was a small house at the side of a big town. His family was very poor. His four grandparents stayed in the only bed in the house. The family never had enough food. They always ate watery cabbage (卷心菜) soup for dinner. In winter, the icy wind swept (扫) across the floor all night long. To my surprise, the family were happy together. In the evenings, Charlie sat with his grandparents in bed and listened to their stories. Charlie's parents often joined in. Every night, the room became a happy place. The whole family forgot about their hungry and poor life. This touched me greatly. In some people’s minds, happiness comes from things like money. But love, in fact, is the key to happiness.

In the film Forrest Gump, there’s a famous saying: “Life is like a box of chocolate; you never know what you’re going to get.” It’s the same with blind boxes. A blind box toy is hidden inside but people can not see it from the outside. The buyer doesn’t know which toy they’ve got until they open the package. The characters of the toys mainly come from pop culture, from movies to cartoons. Blind boxes, first called lucky bags, were first invented in Japan in the late 1860s, reported China Daily. Why can this kind of old lucky bags be popular again? One reason for their popularity is the attractive and cute appearance of the toys inside the boxes. But another, perhaps more important reason is the fun of being surprised. It is the main reason why people buy blind boxes one after another. The gap between what you want and what you get draws more and more people’s attention. During the Double 11 shopping day, Pop Mart, a leading blind box company in China, sold 55,000 Labubu dolls on Tmall in just 9 seconds, according to a Tmall report. The market size of blind boxes reached 10 billion in 2021. I Research reported that some researchers predicted that at the end of 2025, the market size would increase by 40 percent. While the boxes are certainly popular, others worry that children might spend too much money on these toys because they can’t get the toy that they want from the first box. So they might buy another box. But others think it’s okay to buy a blind box once in a while because part of growing up is learning self-control, after all. 1．Where do the characters of the toys mainly come from? 2．When can a buyer know which toy they’ve got? 3．What do the toys inside the boxes look like? 4．Why do children spend too much money on these toys? 5．Do you like blind boxes? Why or why not?（请自拟一句话作答） 主题03 人与自我——环境保护 Passage 1 (24-25七年级下·江苏省泰州市靖江市·期末)阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。 The Sound of Trees Everyone has their own way to protect our planet—some pick up rubbish, and others stop using plastic bags. But for composer (作曲家) Liang Haoyi, he chooses music. Through his new work Tree, Liang calls on people to protect trees and respect nature. Tree is made up of five movements (乐章). The first part brings people into a lively forest. Sweet birdsong is heard with the sound of leaves waving gently in the wind. As the forest turns quiet, a cello (大提琴) starts to sing softly. It sounds like a tree telling its peaceful life story. In the next movement, the music becomes faster. It brings to mind the sad scene of people cutting down trees one by one. The forest becomes impossible to see slowly as the music goes on. Then, the third part shows how people feel sorry for cutting down trees. They start to ask themselves what they should do to make things right. After that comes a powerful movement. People take action to plant new trees and rebuild the nature.

Passage 2 (24-25七年级下·江苏泰州姜堰区·期末)阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。 How do you feel when you hear birds singing freely in the trees? What’s your feeling when you see butterflies dancing slowly and lightly in the wind? Whether you love researching the outdoors or watching far away, getting close to nature can take your mind off your worries and make you relax. What is nature? Nature means the world around us that is not man-made, including birds, mountains, trees, the sea and the stars. It’s also a force (力量) that controls things like weather. We can find nature here and there— beaches, gardens, parks, rivers, and even unexpected places like cracks (裂缝) in the stones. Why does nature make us feel good? Spending time in nature brings peace, joy and wonder to our lives. It takes us outdoors, gets us active and lets us care more about the environment. Even a little gift of nature can make us feel free and hopeful, such as breathing in fresh air, listening to the wind in the trees or standing at a mountain. Ralphie, who is 10, likes being close to nature on a bike with his family. He says, “It makes us feel happy and takes our mind off things because we have to focus. We are away from traffic and we hear more birdsong and see more wild animals.” How can we feel closer to nature? Feeling closer to nature is easy. We can build a connection (联系) with nature wherever we are using our senses. Try listening closely to birdsong, smelling flowers and feeling sand between our fingers. Paint a picture and take photos of the natural places that we like best. They may help us feel closer to the natural world. It’s important to try and connect with nature, notice its beauty and how it makes us feel.

We can only move slowly, so we need a shell to protect us.” The baby snail asked again, “The caterpillar has no bones, either, and she can’t move quickly. Why can she live without a shell?” The mother snail answered, “That’s because a caterpillar will become a butterfly. She can fly high into the sky. Then the sky can protect (保护) her.” The baby snail had one more question, “But the earthworm moves like us. He has no bones and he won’t turn into a butterfly. Why doesn’t he carry a hard and heavy shell?” His mother said, “He can dig a hole and hide in the ground, and then the earth can protect him.” The baby snail then cried, “We are so poor!

You hear a car. You know it’s coming from the left because the sound gets to your left car first. Do all animals hear in the same way? Bats hear with their ears, but they also send out a high sound with their mouth or nose. When this sound hits something, echoes come back. The bat now knows where the thing is and how big it is. We call this echolocation(回声定位). Snakes don’t have ears, and they can’t hear. So how does a snake know when an animal is walking near it? It can feel the ground moving. So if you are in snake country, don’t walk quietly. When a snake knows something as big as a person is near, it usually goes away. If it doesn’t hear you coming, you may walk on it. And it doesn’t like that! So bats, and some people, can “see” because they hear. And snakes can “hear” because they feel. Can some people hear things we usually see? Yes! Some people can hear colours! When they listen to music, the different notes have different colours. Franz Liszt (1811-1886) was the best piano player of his time. He also wrote music and was an orchestra conductor(指挥家). The musicians didn’t understand when he said things like, “Please, play this a little more blue. This music has to be blue. Not so pink, please.” At first they thought this was funny. Then they understood that when Liszt heard music, he also saw colours. 1．What can a bat know from the echoes? 2．How do snakes know when danger is near? 3．If you could “hear” colours, which colour would sound special to you? Why? would sound special to me because 【答案】1．It can know where the thing is and how big it is. 2．They know by feeling the ground moving. 3． Green（合理即可） I feel hope and confidence when things are green.（合理即可） 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，通过对比不同的动物的感知方式，探讨了听觉、视觉与感受的奇妙联系。 1．根据“ they also send out a high sound with their mouth or nose. When this sound hits something, echoes come back. The bat now knows where the thing is and how big it is.”可知，蝙蝠会用嘴或鼻子发出声音，通过回声知道东西在哪里，有多大。故填It can know where the thing is and how big it is. 2．根据“when an animal is walking near it? It can feel the ground moving.”可知，当动物靠近它时，它能感觉到地面的移动。因此蛇通过感受地面的移动知道危险靠近。故填They know by feeling the ground moving. 3．本题为开放题，答案不唯一。本题要求写出让你感受特别的颜色，并解释原因，第一个空应填颜色，第二个空解释原因，比如绿色给人有希望、充满自信的感受。可填Green；I feel hope and confidence when things are green.（合理即可） Passage 2 (24-25七年级下·江苏常州·期末)阅读短文，回答问题。 Some deserts have a magical wonder—singing sand dunes (沙丘). These special dunes can make surprising and amazing sounds. Not every sand dune can sing—only the ones in places like China’s Gobi Desert, the Sahara Desert, and some deserts in America. People can hear the sounds from very far away, sometimes lasting for several minutes. Some dunes even make different musical sounds, depending on how fast you move down the dunes! When the wind blows strongly or when people move down these dunes, the sand makes deep, musical noises. Scientists say this happens because the sand grains (沙粒) are all very similar in size and shape. When they move, they rub (摩擦) each other and make these special sounds. The best time to hear the singing is on sunny days when the sand is very dry. Many visitors love moving down the dunes to make the sand sing! This natural wonder shows how amazing our planet is. Next time you think deserts are just hot and quiet places, remember—some can put on a musical show! Wouldn’t you love to visit one and make the sand sing for you? 1．How long can the singing sounds last? 2．When is the best time to hear the singing? 3．What do visitors enjoy doing to hear the singing? 【答案】1．(For) several minutes. 2．On sunny (dry) days. 3．Moving down the dunes. 【导语】本文主要介绍了会唱歌的沙漠，以及沙漠唱歌的原因。 1．根据“People can hear the sounds from very far away, sometimes lasting for several minutes.”可知，歌声能够持续几分钟。故填(For) several minutes. 2．根据“The best time to hear the singing is on sunny days when the sand is very dry.”可知，最佳时间在晴天，沙子干燥的时候。故填On sunny (dry) days. 3．根据“Many visitors love moving down the dunes to make the sand sing!”可知，游客喜欢从沙丘上下来听沙子唱歌。故填Moving down the dunes.

Passage 3 (24-25七年级下·江苏南通海安市·期末)请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。 Blind boxes have become popular in China these days. In the film Forrest Gump, there’s a famous saying: “Life is like a box of chocolate; you never know what you’re going to get.” It’s the same with blind boxes. A blind box toy is hidden inside but people can not see it from the outside. The buyer doesn’t know which toy they’ve got until they open the package. The characters of the toys mainly come from pop culture, from movies to cartoons. Blind boxes, first called lucky bags, were first invented in Japan in the late 1860s, reported China Daily. Why can this kind of old lucky bags be popular again? One reason for their popularity is the attractive and cute appearance of the toys inside the boxes. But another, perhaps more important reason is the fun of being surprised. It is the main reason why people buy blind boxes one after another. The gap between what you want and what you get draws more and more people’s attention. During the Double 11 shopping day, Pop Mart, a leading blind box company in China, sold 55,000 Labubu dolls on Tmall in just 9 seconds, according to a Tmall report. The market size of blind boxes reached 10 billion in 2021. I Research reported that some researchers predicted that at the end of 2025, the market size would increase by 40 percent. While the boxes are certainly popular, others worry that children might spend too much money on these toys because they can’t get the toy that they want from the first box.

But for composer (作曲家) Liang Haoyi, he chooses music. Through his new work Tree, Liang calls on people to protect trees and respect nature. Tree is made up of five movements (乐章). The first part brings people into a lively forest. Sweet birdsong is heard with the sound of leaves waving gently in the wind. As the forest turns quiet, a cello (大提琴) starts to sing softly. It sounds like a tree telling its peaceful life story. In the next movement, the music becomes faster. It brings to mind the sad scene of people cutting down trees one by one. The forest becomes impossible to see slowly as the music goes on. Then, the third part shows how people feel sorry for cutting down trees. They start to ask themselves what they should do to make things right. After that comes a powerful movement. People take action to plant new trees and rebuild the nature. The final movement is filled with bright tunes (曲调), with people finally bringing back the green mountains. Before he started writing Tree, Liang took a walk deep into the forests, with his ears fully open. The beautiful sounds of trees, birds and the wind were like a special gift to his ears, giving him lots of ideas for his music. Liang hopes people could hear the message in his music. “To some people, one tree may seem unimportant, but a forest starts to lose its life as soon as the first tree falls,” he said. “I hope everyone will care for every tree. If we all work on it together, small trees can grow into great forests, and forests can grow into green mountains.” The Sound of Trees Basic information ● Different from others, Liang Haoyi uses music as his special 1 to show his care to the earth. ● His new work Tree asks people to protect trees and respect nature.

What’s your feeling when you see butterflies dancing slowly and lightly in the wind? Whether you love researching the outdoors or watching far away, getting close to nature can take your mind off your worries and make you relax. What is nature? Nature means the world around us that is not man-made, including birds, mountains, trees, the sea and the stars. It’s also a force (力量) that controls things like weather. We can find nature here and there— beaches, gardens, parks, rivers, and even unexpected places like cracks (裂缝) in the stones. Why does nature make us feel good? Spending time in nature brings peace, joy and wonder to our lives. It takes us outdoors, gets us active and lets us care more about the environment. Even a little gift of nature can make us feel free and hopeful, such as breathing in fresh air, listening to the wind in the trees or standing at a mountain. Ralphie, who is 10, likes being close to nature on a bike with his family. He says, “It makes us feel happy and takes our mind off things because we have to focus. We are away from traffic and we hear more birdsong and see more wild animals.” How can we feel closer to nature? Feeling closer to nature is easy. We can build a connection (联系) with nature wherever we are using our senses. Try listening closely to birdsong, smelling flowers and feeling sand between our fingers. Paint a picture and take photos of the natural places that we like best. They may help us feel closer to the natural world. It’s important to try and connect with nature, notice its beauty and how it makes us feel.
