About the author: Laura Ingalls Wilder

Laura Ingalls Wilder, well-known author of the Little House series of books, was born in the big woods of Wisconsin.When she was 7, she and her family traveled by covered wagon and moved to the prairie land of Walnut Grove, Minnesota.Her family was one of the pioneer families who settled there, following the Homestead Act of 1862, which encouraged Americans to travel west and settle.Today, the people of Walnut Grove celebrate Wilder's books every July with the Laura Ingalls Wilder Pageant.The Pageant is a family-oriented outdoor drama with all of Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House on the Prairie book characters.An actress playing a 70-year-old Laura narrates the story, reflecting on her life in Walnut Grove during the 1870s.If you've never read any of the Little House books, you should, because you can learn a lot about life in America during the 1870s.Main Works Little House in the Big Wood(1932)Farmer Boy(1933)Little House on the Prairie(1935)On the Banks of Plum Creek(1937)By the Shores of Silver Lake(1939)The Long Winter(1940)Little Town on the Prairie(1941)Those Happy Golden Years(1943)Preview Questions What is the Westward Movement in America?

How do you understand this sentence? The sun sank out of sight, the woods grew dark, and he did not come.Ma started supper and set the table, but he did not come.It was time to do the chores, and still he had not come.Note that the sentence he did not come has been repeated three times in this short paragraph.The repetition stresses the anxiety with which the children are waiting for Pa's coming back.How do you understand this sentence? “But he could have hurt us, couldn't he?” she asked.Note that the question is put in its subjunctive mood.From the context we know that Ma's consoling remarks make Laura feels better.When she asks this question, she knows well that the bear will not hurt them because they have protections.So what she really implies is that without those protections, the bear will have hurt them.Topic for Discussion What kind of people were Laura's parents?

Discuss the kind of life the family lived in the big woods.Ⅵ.Summary(小结)

Unit 4 Migratory Birds and Coffee I.Teaching Objectives（教学目标）

Go over the whole text in limited time and try to get the main idea of the passage Get to know the relationship between shade coffee plantation and migratory birds and the importance of conserving migratory birds and their habitats.II.Teaching Importance and Difficulties（教学重点及难点）1.The usage of new words and phrases 2.Using context clues to find out the meaning of words 3.Understanding paragraphs-How to identify the Main Idea.4.Reading skills: Understanding the Topic III.Teaching Methods（教学方法）Teaching Discussing Practicing

IV.Teaching Time（教学时数）: 4 periods V.Teaching Content（教学内容）1.Related Information Under the category “Research on coffee growing,” you can see a list of some of the earlier research on bird diversity on coffee plantations.Some facts gleaned from this research include: • The majority of bird species in shade coffee plantations are feeding in the shaded overstory, not in the coffee.The coffee shrubs themselves offer few resources.This is why sun coffee monocultures do not support a diversity of birds.• The value of coffee farms is dependent largely upon the diversity of their canopy: both the number of different species and the structural complexity of the canopy.• Invertebrates and nectar are the most important food sources for birds in coffee plantations, so coffee farms are especially important to bird species that feed on these resources.• Migratory birds are more flexible in their habitat requirements, and do better in coffee plantations than many resident species, which are more sensitive to habitat changes.• Inga trees are especially important overstory species.• Use of coffee plantations by migrant birds is highly seasonal.Of course, North American migrants are only present in the tropics during spring and fall migration and in winter.However, even during winter some migrants, in particular those that feed on nectar or fruit, tend to increase in number from early to late winter in plantations where these resources are available.Three North American migrants are strongly associated with the flowering of Inga trees: Baltimore Oriole(above), Orchard Oriole, and Tennessee Warbler.Here is a list of North American species that use coffee plantations.• Resident birds that make altitudinal migrations(up and downslope)also take advantage of flower crops available at shade coffee plantations, and are therefore more common at certain times of the season that others.• The elevation of the plantations must be taken into account, because bird species composition and abundance vary depending on elevations;highlands are particularly important.Likewise, when examining the number and type of birds, or any taxa, in coffee farms, the distance of the farm or study plot from natural forest must be considered.Typically the closer a plot is to natural forest, the more and varied species it will contain.Bird diversity in rustic or heavy shade plantations sometimes rivals that of natural forests.These plantations always have a significantly higher bird diversity(as well as a diversity of other species)than do sun coffee plantations.Shade coffee plantations offer important refuges for species in areas where natural habitats are quickly being converted to agriculture.2.Reading skills Understanding the Topic

Just as previewing helps you to understand the important ideas in a book, a unit or a chapter, identifying the topic of what you are reading helps you to focus on the general subject of a reading.A topic is the general subject of the sentences in a paragraph or that of the paragraphs in a text.It is much like a title for the paragraph or the text.Finding out the topic of what you are reading is the first step toward understanding subject information.Knowing the paragraph topic builds a base of comprehension which leads to further understanding about the text.Read the following paragraph to see how the topic reflects the general subject of the sentences in a paragraph and how it can be stated in a few words.Page58

What do you think is the general subject of this paragraph? The first sentence in it raises a question and the rest of the paragraph tries to answer the question by giving a list of advantages of hobbies.Part of the first sentence can serve as the topic the paragraph: What to gain from a hobby.or we can use fewer words to illustrate the topic, such as ―advantages of hobbies.‖ 3.vocabulary in context Conservation n 保护；保存

There is a need for the conservation of trees, or there will soon be no forests.有必要保护树木，否则不久将会没有森林了。

节约（自然资源）

IV.Teaching Time（教学时数）: 4 periods V.Teaching Content（教学内容）1.Related Information About Isaac Bashevis Singer(1904-1991)was the most famous Yuddish writer of the 20th century.Born in Poland, he came to the USA in 1935.one of ten American writers to be awarded the Nobel Prize and perhaps the most influential and beloved Jewish-American writer.A prolific writer who vividly conjoured the annihilated Jewish world of Eastern Europe, he spoke to the fears, longings and ambivalence of America’s Modern nation of immigrants.Singer drew on folk memories of work those mystical dramatically from the realistic to fantastic, in ways that startled readers and inspired other writers.2004 was the centennial year of the master storyteller Isaac Bashevis Singer, who in 1978 became the seventh American to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature.The Library of America presents Collected Stories, a major celebration of Singer's achievement.Beginning with “Gimpel the Fool,” whose title story brought Singer to prominence in America when translated from Yiddish by Saul Bellow in 1953, and concluding with “The Death of Methuselah,” the collection published three years before his death in 1991, this three-volume edition brings together for the first time all the story collections Singer published in English in the versions he called his “second originals”—translations he supervised and collaborated on himself, revising as he worked.In addition, Collected Stories includes thirteen previously uncollected stories from the Ransom Center collections.Here are nearly 200 stories—the full range of Singer's vision encompassing Old World shtetl and New World exile.Born in Poland in 1904 into a family of rabbis, Singer was raised in the traditional culture that was to be annihilated during World War II, and his haunting stories testify to the richness of that vanished world.Singer's Old World stories reveal a wild, mischievous, often disturbing supernaturalism evocative of both local storytelling traditions and dark undercurrents born of Singer's own concerns and obsessions.After leaving Poland, Singer settled in Manhattan and—slowly at first, then dramatically—made himself an American writer, in the process transforming American culture and being transformed himself, in his life and his work.Exploring the daily lived reality and imaginative boundaries of Jewish culture as it was transplanted to the United States, he created characters—many of them survivors of the Holocuast— that dramatized the conflicts not only of postwar American Jews, but of an entire society committed both to cultural pluralism and to assimilation.His achievement in the stories gathered in Collected Stories reveal him to be the emblematic immigrant American writer, whose vision and insights expanded his adopted country's sense of its own culture.The Nobel Prize in Literature 1978

NHS— National Health Service 国民医疗服务

NHS is the publicly-funded healthcare system in the UK, and provides free healthcare to all residents.It started operating in 1948.Since its launch in 1948, the NHS has grown to become the world’s largest publicly funded health service.The NHS was born out of a long-held ideal that good healthcare should be available to all, regardless of wealth.That principle remains at its core.With the exception of charges for some prescriptions and optical and dental services, the NHS remains free at the point of use for anyone who is resident in the UK.That is currently more than 60m people.It covers everything from antenatal screening and routine treatments for coughs and colds to open heart surgery, accident and emergency treatment and end-of-life care.Graphic of NHS structure As can be seen on the diagram(right)the NHS is divided into two sections: primary and secondary care.Primary care is the first point of contact for most people and is delivered by a wide range of independent contractors, including GPs, dentists, pharmacists and optometrists.Secondary care Secondary care is known as acute healthcare and can be either elective care or emergency care.Elective care means planned specialist medical care or surgery, usually following referral from a primary or community health professional such as a GP.Prescription costs Prescription prepayment certificates(PPC)are available in England and they can save you money.The current prescription charge is £7.20.You can get free NHS prescriptions if, at the time the prescription is dispensed, you:

* are 60 or over

* are under 16

* are 16-18 and in full-time education

* are pregnant or have had a baby in the previous 12 months and have a valid maternity exemption certificate(MatEx)

* have a specified medical condition and have a valid medical exemption certificate(MedEx)

* have a continuing physical disability that prevents you from going out without help from another person and have a valid MedEx

* hold a valid war pension exemption certificate and the prescription is for your accepted disability

* are an NHS inpatient 2.vocabulary in context spiral n.v.adj.螺旋形的，急剧地上升(或下降)a spiral staircase 螺旋形的楼梯

第二篇：浅谈英语泛读

浅谈英语泛读

中学英语教科书服务大纲所规定的教学目的就是提供给师生重要的教学材料。教材的组成是：听力训练、学生课本、阅读训练及练习册。套教材设计，其实是通过泛读、精读、听力的各项训练中来判别的，来培养学生听、说、读、写、译等各项方面的综合性能力，用来发展学生英语交际能力，加快学生的阅读速度。阅读又可分为精读、泛读和快速阅读，因此，学生课本以及学生用书都是精读课本，阅读训练属泛读内容。泛读和精读是和教学在高中英语教学中相辅相成的，听力训练和阅读训练是一个有机整体，重视高中英语泛读教学是英语教学的内在要求。

一、英语泛读缺位的原因

《高中英语课程标准》中讲到：“除教材之外，课外阅读量六级达到20万以上，七级要达到30万以上，八级要达到36万以上。”从这一要求当中我们就可以看出泛读教学的重要性。平时加强泛读教学能激发学生阅读的兴趣，增加他们的知识面，扩大他们的眼界，培养他们的阅读技巧和策略，为高考英语速度和质量做了一个很好的铺垫。既然泛读教学如此重要，那为什么高中英语泛读教学会存在缺位现象呢？究其原因有如下几点：

1.教师认识不到位，学校领导重视不够，教学管理部门监管缺失，学生课业负担重等方面原因同时存在。具体表现为：学校领导没有重视泛读科目；教师精、泛读之间的关系及泛读教学对学生英语学习影响也没有很强的意识；教学的管理部门不能提供政策上的引导与督促；学生会忽视泛读学习，是因为疲劳的应付各 种练习题、模拟题,而课业的负担也很重。

2.有的教师虽然也提倡课外阅读，同时也会布置相关任务（如概括中心思想或写篇心得体会），但由于布置的任务跟作文相似，批起来时间长任务繁重，并且手头要忙的作业太多，无法顾及每个学生特殊的情况。同时也缺乏有序的组织和有效地监督，所以久而久之即使布置也如形同虚设。

3.从学生角度讲，他们由于应付各科作业，背诵已经花很多时间，尽管对有些跟他们生活息息相关的文章感兴趣，但由于要完成很多作业而无法自作主张。

4.有些学生虽然有这种扩大阅读量的意识，在实践中却又无法坚持，经常是“三天打鱼，两天晒网”，有始无终，缺乏计划性和长期性。这样导致很多学生无法接触到大量的英语国家的信息和背景知识，使学生又处于知识面狭窄的状况，这样又影响了他们阅读能力的提高。

5.还有的学生不要说不进行泛读训练，即使在平时做的阅读理解 中也采取划答案找答案的做题规律，根本不重视篇章的理解和文章的结构，常常在选标题时以文章中的例子为标题。因为平时老师在做阅读理解时总是有过多的讲解，分析孤立的词汇与结构，学生也养成了不动脑经，不发挥联想的主动的创造性思维的能力。久而久之，学生把阅读看成是一件极其痛苦的事，为了做好阅读理解而阅读，根本领悟不到语言的美感，不能丰富大脑，不能从中获得教训或者是一个深刻的道理，达不成共鸣。

二、高中英语泛读教学的应对策略

英国学者弗兰克斯·格雷利特（Francoise Grellet）认为：“泛读是一种熟练活动，主要是解决对文章的综合理解问题。进行泛读训练时，首先应该从综合理解开始，然后再向详细理解过渡。要求学生完成的任务应该是综合理解性的。同时，设计阅读理解练习也应该是从对选文整体理解开始，而不是词汇或较具体的内容。” 高中的英语教师，应当在教学实践中努力开展好泛读教学。所以，怎样进行有效的泛读训练，笔者认为可以从以下几点入手：

1.立足于教材，上好每一堂整体教学课，充分把每个模块的Reading先整体教学，在整体教学的过程中同时扩充其他泛读材料进行有效地训练。

【案例】

如在教M6U4Reading“The UN------bringing everyone closer together”时，在学生回答了几个问题之后，我们就趁热打铁让学生把这篇文章分成四段，同时请同学告知每一段的节数，并写上段落大意。接下来请学生回答两个体现有概括性能力的问题，即：“Why does the author choose the title ‘The UN------bringing everyone closer together?’ Can you find some examples from the text?”和“What does the author feel about being a Goodwill Ambassador and what is her attitude towards wars and conflicts in the world?”紧接着引出这篇文章的Reading strateg，提问学生本文的作者的态度是favorable 还是unfavorable的，并且请学生们找出相关的句子和关键词来证明自己的观点。讲到这里我们趁热打铁，给出一些相关的高考题训练，如：Spring is coming, and it is time for those about to graduate to look for jobs.Competition is tough, so job seekers must carefully consider their personal choices.Whatever we are wearing, our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not.(2012陕西高考阅读理解D)Q：The author’s attitude towards strange styles in the workplace may best be described as ____B___.A.enthusiastic B.negative C.positive D.sympathetic 如果每个单元的课文能这样结合的话，学生在阅读技巧上肯定会日积月累，总有一天会有所突破的。

第二，给学生们的阅读材料要时代性的文章或者是能让学生看了一眼就能感兴趣的文章，也就是说与他们的生活息息相关的文章。笔者认为尤其是高一时一定要选生词不超过2%的文章，最好是与课文类似的，平时阅读理解完形填空中做过的文章，用这种泛读材料一可以让学生产生近距离感，二可以巩固已学知识，三可以简单讲评，只要求学生归纳出中心思想或划出主题句即可。

泛读课在中学阶段无法顺利开展的主要原因之一在于学校没有统一的泛读材料。如果教师只是口头强调增加阅读量的必要性，而不检测学生的阅读进展及效果，那么阅读效率永远得不到提高。在此步骤中，执教者借助统一征订的某一期报纸，通过抢答题与必答题的形式检测学生是否阅读以及阅读的效果。以上七道抢答题设置得比较简单，主要以扩大学生的知识面以及激发学生的阅读兴趣为目的。五道必答题是在抢答题的基础上，适当增加阅读的难度，主要是针对阅读文章的整体理解，旨在检测学生是 否读懂文章，是否理解文章大意，并不要求达到细节理解等深层次理解的程度。

Step 2 : Reading ability training(While-reading)本步骤主要由四个部分主成：

Training 1: Fast reading and guessing words 快速阅读——训练猜词能力，训练材料是与报纸第五版面相关的世博会话题。

Training 2: Words and expressions 词汇讲解——主要讲解文章中出现的生词及其 词缀以及没有任何生词但无法理解的习语。

Training 3: Difficult sentences 难句理解——处理影响学生对文章理解的难 句，难点在于虚拟语气。Training 4: Theme or opinion 总结归纳——训练学生寻找主题句、提炼观点句的能力。

本步骤目的：在阅读技能方面主要训练学生快速阅读、猜词以及理解文章主旨大意的能力。在词汇方面主要扫清生词和难句的障碍，扩大词汇量。

训练策略：词缀闪卡、猜测习语在语境中的意思、提问解答。本步骤时长：25分钟。

Step 3: Ability application(Post-reading)本步骤目的：即学即用，让学生在做中学。检测手段：高考阅读理解一篇、迷你辩论。本步骤时长：15分钟左右。执教者要求学生在六分钟内完成一篇2003年上海高考英语试卷阅读理解C篇，这是一篇议论文，是关于考试体系要保护还是废除的讨论。执教者经过略微修改，降低了三道选择题的难度。这三道选择题 分别检测了猜词、作者观点及文章主旨三个方面，考查学生对本节课训练的这三个技能的掌握程度。执教者指导学生先独立思考，然后再小组讨论。

第三，制定明确具体的泛读计划。泛读是提高学生阅读理解能力的主渠道。只有通过系统的、严格的阅读训练，才能使学生掌握正确的阅读方法和形成基本的阅读技能，加快阅读速度，扩大阅读量，提升语感。笔者认为从高一开始每周就可开设一节泛读课。假如每节泛读课读3-4篇300-400 字的文章，按每学期18周计算，一期可读70篇，高中三年累计可泛读300篇左右，其阅读量可达12万字左右，是中学六年教科书词汇总量的两倍。同时，泛读教学除了时间的安排要纳入计划外，我们也要规定 教学指标，如对阅读速度、阅读技巧等项目要做出具体的安排。

泛读的任务在于着重提高学生的阅读理解能力；培养细致观察以及假设、判断、分析、归纳、推理论证等逻辑思维能力；培养速读能力以及阅读的兴趣，扩大词汇量，拓展文化背景知识。从用途上看，泛读的实用性最广。在实际生活里，80%〜90%的阅读方式都是泛读。目前的英语阅读教学主要是整体阅读教学模式，而此种模式是建立在图式理论（Schema Theory)的基础上，其核心思想是理解新知识时，总是将新知识与已有的知识联系起来。显然，与话题有关的原有知识越多，阅读理解的难度就会越小。

第四，循序渐进方法灵活。泛读教学可分为课内阅读与课外阅读，首先在教 师指导下实施课内阅读，再扩大到课外阅读。泛读教学应从高一到高三不间断，教师可分三个阶段进行：

1．高一年级阶段

这一阶段，学生刚从初中进入高中，教师应注意初、高中英语知识的衔接，引导学生把精读课中学生所学知识运用到泛读课上，向学生介绍阅读技巧，利用阅读教材中的限时阅读材料加强学生阅读速度训练，同时，培养学生良好的阅读习惯，适当地进行口、笔头语言输出，主要以回答问题、角色扮演、转换角色、讲述、改写、缩写、续写课文等形式练习。教师的训练方法应得当，形式应灵活多样，教师可采取阅读前活动、阅读中活动、阅读后活动；根据阅读材料的类型运用串讲法、问题法、讨论法、默读记时法等形式吸引学生参与，活跃课堂气氛，增加师生互动的机会，从而有利于学生理解词、句子和语篇，激发学生的阅读兴趣与信心。

2．高二年级阶段 学生经过一年的英语学习与训练，词汇量大大增加，掌握了一些阅读技能，阅读速度比以前加快了，基本上养成了一些较好的阅读习惯，有了一定的阅读兴趣，但仍然需要教师的指导，这一阶段还要进一步加大阅读量，引导学生阅读《英语周报》、《21世纪报》等中级层次的英文报刊，并逐渐增加不同题材、不同体裁的命题话题、命题作文的练习。

3．高三年级阶段

学生经过两年的学习，词汇量加大，阅读速度大大加快，教师应鼓励学生进一步加大课外阅读，同时，继续加大命题话题、命题作文的练习，逐步加大训练 的难度强度。引导学生的阅读材料从《英语周报》、《英语画刊》等以课程练习为主的英语报刊杂志，到《英语沙龙》、《中国日报》等高信息量的阅读材料。

第五，选取适当的材料，注意方法育泛读材料选择相当重要。教师为学生选定泛读材料要具有足够的语言输人量，要具有思想性、时代感、知识性、真实性，具有可理解性，要题材广泛、体裁多样。泛读要注意方法，急于求成行不通，要循序渐进，方法单一效果难有保证，要灵活安排。方法的选择要根据具体情况区别对待。如对待不同的年级、不同的学生，要采取的方法也应有所差别，同样的学生在阅读不同类型的文章时，也要有所差别。

每天上课给学生一篇较短的泛读材料让他们限时阅读，读完后回答出大意即可。这样慢慢地就能培养学生的阅读速度和提高他们对把握整体的敏感度。除了回答中心思想，也可以采取复述，改写，缩写，续写等形式练习。如果能坚持一个星期写一篇文章的话，作文也相应得到了训练，对作文的提高也有着举足轻重的作用。还有一些学生有增加阅读量的意识，由于没有很好地计划性和长期性，所以经常有始无终。对于这些学生，笔者往往采取课后定期辅导，鼓励他们的同时给他们一个督促的作用，使他们能持之以恒而达到一个比较理想的效果。

不管是从理论中还是从实践中来讲，泛读课其实是高中英语教学绝对不能缺少的一部分，开设泛读课在高中英语教学中最基本的，也是绝对可以执行的。笔者认为，只要教师意识到泛读教学缺位带来的负面影响，更新观念，认识到位，措施得力，通过在教学中增加泛读教学，加大英语语言输入量，持之以恒地不断进行泛读教学，必然会逐渐改变英语教学中长期形成的“耗时低效”状况，起到事半功倍的效果。

Walden

Recently, I read a book named Walden.It took me some time to read through it.Most important, I learnt a lot from the beautiful language and the life attitude of the author, Thoreau.This is a book which tells in spring, Thoreau started building a cabin in the woods, thinking about life, reading some books, and listening to the sound of nature.In autumn, he planted beans, observed Walden Pond.In winter, the Walden Pond was frozen, and lots of animals accompanied with him.As spring's coming, the Walden and other ponds melted.Then everything in nature was awake and reborn including Thoreau.Thoreau first wrote that most people pursuit their necessary things of life such as fashionable clothes, houses and equipment.They pursuit these things while Thoreau went to the woods to build a cabin which only cost $28.12, eating simple food and needing little furniture.I still remember one of chapters in his book, Higher Law, emphasized more on the spiritual aspect, instead of the

satisfaction of material.Besides, he urged people to read more classic literature.For example, Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey and other great writers’ masterpieces.More over, he wrote that though he lived alone in the woods, he was close to nature and made himself as a part of nature.He lived alone, but sometimes he also talked with his visitors who are honest, sincere, and thinkable, including those people who love their lives.Thoreau also mentioned that the noise in the town and the whistle of train disturbed the quite life of the town.However, in the woods, life is quite.When he lived in the woods, he listened to animals' sounds such as bird's singing, owl’s hooting, cockerel’s crowing and so on.He lived with animals friendly.He also described the Walden Pond.The water, blue and green, clear and pure, froze in winter and melted in spring.When I was reading Walden, I felt that a kind of profound thinking of life hid behind the beautiful words of Thoreau, providing much food for thought.Walden

The words and phrases about the nature especially the Walden Pond were beautiful and fascinating.The sentences were full of wisdom and philosophy.When reading this book, it reminded me of those people who work day and night to earn money, wasted a lot of money to buy luxury and expensive things, wasted much time to entertain themselves.For my part, they might easily lose themselves.Though their materials were full, their minds are hungry.As far as I am concerned, the real life is to make every complicated thing to be simple and enrich our thoughts and soul.General speaking, simplicity can make our soul and bodies more comfortable and free.Material is just the skin;inside world is the most significant.As for me, many people who around me think I

should buy some beautiful clothes and dress up.However, I think my life is good.One more thing I want to say is that people did not understand him when

Thoreau lived alone in the woods, even Emerson thought what he did was wrong.But I think Thoreau’s life was successful, meaningful and happy, so do I.The life attitude of Thoreau really grips me deeply.Because I think that the success and happiness of life all come from exactly value.Everyone deeply desires of

themselves life.When you know what the value of yourself is, meanwhile you can enjoy your life according to the value every time.You will find that everyday you have full of energy and enthusiasm to do anything, hear the sure sound from your heart, and often feel intense achievement.The most important is that your heart is peace and calm.You are happy ever day.In the last place, I envy Thoreau so much for he lived in such a beautiful and comfortable nature environment.He breathed the fresh air, lived with wild with animals friendly;appreciated the scenery of Walden Pond and so on.While in modern society, people pursuit their own interests to hunt and kill animals, cut down trees and pollute the rivers and so on.As a result, the number of wildlife is decreasing dramatically, the area of lakes is shrinking, and the water is not pure any more.The environmental problems such as globe warming, climate change and air and water pollution have been becoming increasingly serious.When it

Walden

comes to environment problems, I will remind of the beautiful scenery Thoreau described in the book.And the book can raise awareness of people of environmental protection.In a word, I really do learn o lot from the readable and valuable book., the life attitude of Thoreau and deep thinking of environmental protection.Maybe I cannot understand Thoreau's thoughts completely, but I think the book, Walden, is a fairly good book to read.I hope you can read through it and I am sure you can learn something from it.
