Open a dictionary, and you’ll be surprised to find that there are many more words about nature than you would think. There are various ways to describe the things we see in the natural world, no matter whether it's a flower, an animal or the rain. For example, there are many ways to describe the different sounds of birds, such as chatter, chirp, cluck, hoot and tweet. These words can help us to write vivid descriptions of nature.

To listen for why many words describing nature disappeared, and use expressions of giving examples and giving explanations correctly
目标一: To learn words describing nature and clarify them correctly
Activity 1: Read the paragraph and answer the questions. Pay attention to the words in bold.
There is no month in the whole year in which nature wears a more beautiful appearance than in the month of August. Spring has many beauties, and May is a fresh and blooming month, but the charms of this time of year are enhanced by their contrast with the winter season. August has no such advantage. It comes when we remember nothing but clear skies, green fields, and sweet-smelling flowers - when the memory of snow, and ice, and bleak winds, has faded from our minds as completely as they have disappeared from the earth - and yet what a pleasant time it is!
Orchards and fields sing with the sound of work; trees bend beneath the thick clusters of rich fruit which bow their branches to the ground; and the wheat, piled in graceful sheaves, or waving in every gentle wind that sweeps above it, tinges the landscape with a golden colour. A soft, pleasant light appears to hang over the whole earth; the influence of the season seems to extend itself even to a passing wagon, whose slow motion across the well-reaped field is seen by the eye, but makes no loud noises upon the ear.(Adaptation from The Pickwick Papers by Charles Dickens)

Describe nature during your favourite season with the words you have learnt.
目标二: To listen for why many words describing nature disappeared, and use expressions of giving examples and giving explanations correctly
Activity 1: Listen to the conversation and answer the questions.
1 What book was the man reading
2 Why was the man annoyed
3 What was the girl’s opinion
The man was reading a book called Landmarks.
Many words describing nature were now missing from the new version of junior dictionary.
Computers play a large part in our lives. Social media is as normal to young people as pasture to the old.
Activity 2: Listen to the conversation again and correct the mistakes in the man’s blog.
Recently I was reading a book called Landmarks by Robert Macfarlane. What the author wrote made me feel confused. He said that many words describing nature were being added to the new version of the junior dictionary. These are words like “pasture” and “bluebell”. A “pasture” is a dense forest for cows and horses to eat. “Bluebells” are fruit shaped like bells. The reason why they are doing this is that they think these words are irrelevant to children,
annoyed
now missing from
field of grass
blue flowers
so instead they’ve replaced them with terms like “film”. Perhaps the dictionary does have a point, because most children don’t get out into nature that much nowadays. They spend all their time watching TV instead. But it’s a pity. In my opinion, these words form part of our literature. They add colour to our lives, and shouldn’t be lost. My granddaughter has the same opinion as me. She says we are losing old words all the time. And as times change, old words become as normal to young people as the new ones are to me.
