三、阅读理解
The younger generation(一代人),according to a new survey, can hardly remember the last time of climbing trees or flying kites, as they are kept indoors and short of outdoor experiences.
The survey of 1 ,000 people found that the current(现在的) generation of 15- to 34-year-olds had fewer memories of countryside activities such as swimming in rivers or going fishing.
The survey found that three quarters of the older generation remembered playing games or climbing trees, compared with two thirds of younger adults.
The 55+ generation also had more memories of collecting stones, visiting a farm or pond dipping. Altogether, two thirds of older people had more memories of playing outdoors compared to just over half of the younger generation.
The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds(RSPB) carried out the study at the start of the school term to stress the growing worry that children are not getting outdoors enough.
The study has found that 82 percent of people think that schools should provide more outdoor education and most believe nature is still important to children today.
Dr. Mike Clarke, head of the RSPB, said children who are usually kept indoors are easier to get "nature deficit disorder ". He said public money should be used to take children on day trips to nature and to build wildlife gardens, especially in poor areas.
"To many people, it would seem clear and unquestionable that an important part of childhood is exploring the world around them. Unfortunately, this is far from the fact and the children are having less time and fewer chances to get close to nature," he said. "The RSPB has more than a 40-year history in getting children outdoors and is still continuing to play our role. We now need the government and the schools to realize that they should play the most important role in making it possible for all the children to experience, enjoy and benefit from the outdoor environment."
1.Compared with the current generation, the older generation had _______.
A.more homework and exercises when they were children
B.more memories of wonderful life in the countryside
C.fewer memories of taking part in outdoor activities
D.fewer chances of paying a visit to the big cities
2.Why did the RSPB carry out the study
A.To advise the parents to spend more time with their kids.
B.To care more about the kids' growth.
C.To let the kids get more outdoor activities.
D.To order the schools to provide outdoor education.
3.Which of the following words can replace the underlined word in the second paragraph from the bottom
A.Trouble. B.Demand. C.Hobby. D.Medicine.
4.What can we learn from Dr. Clarke's words in the last paragraph
A.All the children can't get close to nature and aren't healthy any longer.
B.Outdoor activities are the most important for the current generation.
C.The RSPB is more important than the government and schools in getting kids outdoors.
D.The RSPB has been devoted to getting kids outdoors for many years.
