So what is rewilding?

Imagine our natural habitats growing instead of shrinking.Imagine species thriving,instead of declining.That's rewilding.Rewilding is ecological restoration and a little bit more.Rewilding offers hope for wildlife,humans and the planet.

Why is rewilding essential for Britain?

●Our ecosystems are broken.The places where you would expect wildlife to thrive have been reduced to wet deserts.The seabed has been damaged and stripped of its living creatures.

●Our wildlife is disappearing.Many wonderful British species have declined catastrophically over the past century.We've lost more of our large mammals than any European country except Ireland.

●We need keystone species.These vital species,including top predator（食肉動物）,drive ecological processes. Their loss in Britain and around the world has worsened our living systems.

●Nature looks after us.Good ecosystems can provide us with clean air and water,prevent flooding,store carbon, and attract visitors.Rewilding can leave the world in a better state than it is today.

What are challenges?

Our "rewilding britain" is a long-term project.Of course it has its challenges.Many of us feel indifferent,because we have got used to the lack of native forests.Many farmers oppose the idea.They thought it a crazy idea to bring back predators to the country because they would start killing farm animals.It takes time to educate them.Above all, we need money!So we need your help!

Make a donation

Help us bring back Jiving systems and restore wild nature in Britain!

Your teen is falling asleep in class

Teens have a busy morning schedule as they need to wake up and get moving very early in order to catch a bus and get to school by the required time. This means teens need to get their rest the night before or they will be too tired to learn anything at school. 1.

When a teen falls asleep in class, two things happen: he/she misses what is being taught and he/she loses the respect of the teacher. He/She may also receive a consequence from the school, depending on the classroom discipline policy. 2.

To prevent your teen from being sleepy in class, try these three tips:

* Set a time for “l(fā)ights out” on school nights. This is never be any later than 10 p. m. and preferably 9 p.m. 3. Soft music can be on and used to help calm your teen.

* Help your teen develop a nighttime routine that involves activities that slow them down for the end of the day. 4. Turning off the computer and disconnecting from friends and the excitement of the day an hour before bedtime will also help your teen relax.

* 5. This will reinforce （增強）what it feels like to be rested and capable of accomplishing what he/she wants.

A. What’s worse, they may even fall asleep in class.

B. Taking a bath and reading are two activities that work well.

C. Set a good example and show him/her your love for learning.

D. Point out the positives after your teen has had a good night’s rest.

E. All of these things affect your teen’s academic success and can be avoided.

F. “Lights out” means the computer, television, lights and cell phone should be off.

G. While your teen keeps his/her goals in line with your expectations, he/she may have his/her own goals.

Both of my parents worked full-time when I was a little girl, so my grandmother would stay at our house during the day. We would watch game shows in the living room. Our favorite was The Price is Right. We would call out our answers along with the contestants（選手）.

When I got older and started going to school, we couldn't watch our game shows regularly. That was okay with me, though, because the one thing I liked better than watching game shows with my grandmother was helping her bake. Watching her in the kitchen was amazing: she never seemed to need the recipes but everything she made tasted delicious.

At first I would just sit in the kitchen and watch, even though I didn't understand what she was doing. As I got older, she let me help with the easy parts, such as measuring the sugar. The day she let me separate the eggs, I felt like I had found complete pleasure.

At last, my parents decided that I could take care of myself, and my grandmother stopped coming over every day. The love of baking, however, stayed with me. I started baking by myself, and even if the cookies ended up burnt sometimes, more often they turned out pretty well. I tried out new recipes, and whenever I got to a thorny part, I would call my grandmother for advice. Sometimes I would call her just to talk, too. I felt like I could talk to her about anything.

My grandmother passed away ten years ago, but I still think of her every day. Last week, I found a recipe book she made for me. It included her recipes for brownies, cookies, and my favorite, lemon pie. As I looked through the pages, I thought I could hear her voice. She was the one who taught me not just about baking, but about life.

1.While helping her grandmother bake, the author ________.

A. missed the game shows B. refused to go to school

C. showed great interest D. could take care of herself

2.What does the underlined word "thorny" in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?

A. Basic. B. Common.

C. Difficult. D. Special.

3.From the passage we know the author's grandmother ________.

A. lived with her family B. was very skilled at baking

C. published a recipe book D. had been on a game show

4.The author's purpose of writing the passage is to ________.

A. remember her grandmother B. show her good baking skills

C. describe her childhood memories D. talk about her happy family life
