归园田居（其一）
陶渊明
少无适俗韵，性本爱丘山。
误落尘网中，一去三十年。
羁鸟恋旧林，池鱼思故渊。
开荒南野际，守拙归园田。
方宅十余亩，草屋八九间。
榆柳荫后檐，桃李罗堂前。
暧暧远人村，依依墟里烟。
狗吠深巷中，鸡鸣桑树颠。
户庭无尘杂，虚室有余闲。
久在樊笼里，复得返自然。

Tao Yuanming Similarities Henry David Thoreau
He went back to nature because ______________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ______________________________________ ________________________________________________________ They went back to nature. ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
He wrote about nature in order to __________
______________________________________
Tao Yuanming He went back to nature because he felt conflicted over life at court. His return to nature was a reaction to a lifestyle he was opposed to. The calm and peaceful life he wrote about is in contrast to and critical of the depressive court life.
Similarities: Both made dramatic transformations to their lives in order to reconnect with nature. Both were happy to withdraw from contemporary life, seeking a harmonious relationship with nature in the quietness of their new lives.
Henry David Thoreau Thoreau’s return to nature was a personal decision to transform the way he lived. Thoreau’s description of nature emphasised the beauty and purity of the wild areas around him. He wrote about nature in order to convince people that animals and plants had a right to live and prosper, as we do.
Activity 5: Think & Share
1 Why did it take Tao and Thoreau great courage to walk away from their previous lives
Because it was difficult to reject the easy and familiar life they used to live.
2 Why are their ideas important to our lives today
Because in today’s modern world, we still need to live harmoniously with nature, and live a simple life. Fewer material desires lead to better personal well-being and fulfilment.
3 What do you think about living in nature like Tao and Thoreau Give your reasons.
I think it’s good for us to live in nature like them, because we can relax ourselves for a while and fewer material desires lead to better personal well-being and fulfilment.
4 Compare the two reading passages in this unit. In what ways does each passage contribute to the unit theme
Both passages have the common theme of learning from nature. The first passage focuses on the inspirations people get from nature, while the second focuses more on the natural way of living that people still need today. The second passage calls upon us to live in harmony with nature, which is an important message for today.

Beyond the dark and distance lies a village,The smoke above reluctant to depart.A dog is barking somewhere down the lane,And chickens sit atop the mulberry tree.
归田园居暧暧远人村，依依墟里烟。 狗吠深巷中，鸡鸣桑树颠。
Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each. Let them be your only diet, drink and botanical medicines.
好好度过每一个季节，呼吸新鲜的空气，畅饮美酒，品尝水果，尽情享受这一切。让生活中只有饮食和草药。
