I was an envirnmental educater, tasked with instilling(渗语)nature cnsciusness in yung minds. My bss gave me standards fr my nature hikes: “Educate students abut river pllutin","Infrm students f reginal endangered species", r "Equip students t understand recycling.”While I did my best t engage with my tag-alngs, and give them an utdr adventure, I nticed a disturbing tend - when the kids talked abut their wn relatinships with nature, they were full f guilt and fear.
Thrugh the cntinuus stream f infrmatin nw available in the mdern age, the kids' yung minds were filled with the knwledge f defrestatin, frest fires, extinct species,plluted waterways, and celebrities telling them t "d better", Well-meaning but heavy-handed prgrams laid these big, scary prblems at their feet, and then ffered little help fr tiny hands. After participating in classes like this fr years, I can cnfidently reprt that the result f such teaching was ften little mre than helplessness, and cntinued discnnectin frm nature .
Rather than scaring kids, we need t use fun. adventure, discvery, and lcally cnnected effrts t truly educate children abut their wrld. I' d like t advcate different appraches: Making creative art prjects with things that can be fund in nature r in daily life t shw them the imprtance f cnserving resurces, creating a mdel cean t teach them abut cean il spills(泄漏) and pllutin: gardening with them and teaching them abut hw plants grw s as t give them experience with taking care f nature, taking them t a z, farm, beach, r frest t see different types f animals.
While it's imprtant that we all cllectively help raise tday's children t be tmrrw's envirnimental advcates, it deserves mre attentin t hw t raise an envirnmentally cnscius child t care abut the envirnment withut guilt r fear.
28.What des the underlined wrd “tag-alngs" in paragraph 1 refer t?
A.HikesB.Surveys.C.Clleagues.D.Students.
29.Why did kids feel guilty and fearful?
A. They lacked knwledge f climate change.
B.Reginal species were endangered r dangerus.
C.Real infrmatin n the envirnment was inaccessible.
D.They were burdened with enrmus negative ec issues.
30.What is the authr's attitude twards the present envirmmental educatin?
A.Uncncerned.B.Critical.
C.Favrable.D. Unclear.
31.Which f the fllwing appraches is advcated by the authr?
A.Making crafts ut f empty tissue bxes.
B.Reading the bks abut resurce recycling.
C.Lecturing students n cean spills and pllutin.
D.Watching vides abut plant grwing in the classrm.

Each mvement prved spectacular. “Cluds" blends a slemn tne with that f peaceful permanence, while "Festivals" fllws with blming jy and lud cnfidence. "Sirens"features the chrus, with their fascinsting calls ver the ebb and flw (起伏)f the rchestra itself. Different sectins make fr a spectacular playing and listening experience.
The main event f the evening, t n surprise, prved an excellent jurney acrss the planets that we find s familiar, bringing each t life with persistence and passin. In a wrld s fcused n the digital, it is ften easy t frget the pwer f live perfrmance, particularty that f rchestral music. Yet, the richness and energy that flwed thrughut the hall again prved the pwer f this art frm and hw fascinating cllective sund can be.
