3. According to The Straits Times, many wild animals have
recently skipped onto empty streets in many cities.
In Spain, a wild boar climbed down the hills and wandered around Barcelona. Sika deer nod their way around the derted metro
stations of Nara in Japan. A stag ran in the capital of the northern state of Uttarakhand in India.
“It is certainly great news for species,” Marcelo Giagnoni, the head of Chile’s agricultural and livestock rvice, told AFP. “This is t he habitat they once had and that we’ve taken away from them.”
Hundreds of years ago, people lived in harmony with wildlife.
They shared natural resources from sunlight to water and from forests to land. But as human beings evolved and formed their own civilizations, they jostled with animals for more space and resources. Gradually, human beings came to lo connection with nature. More skyscrapers have been built to meet the needs of the flock of people
in the cities, which drove away many wild animals from their habitats.
However, the recent lockdown of cities during the pandemic gives
a chance of “freeing a space for other animals” and reflecting on our relationship with nature, according to AFP. Stuck indoors, with their worlds reduced to a few square meters, urban people have suddenly become enthusiastic birdwatchers. British ornithologist（鸟
类学者）David Lindo, who is known as the “urban birder”, has been
posting and livestreaming birds he spots from the roof of the
building in Spain where he has been quarantined（隔离）. “The sky is a great arena, anything can fly past and, at the very least, it will give you peace. My message is simple: keep looking up,” he told CTV News.
Just as AFP noted, right now “the most important phenomenon perhaps is our relationship with nature is changing — with people locked up in their homes realizing how much they miss nature”.
Though the lockdown may be temporary, it’s time for us to
reflect upon our relationship with the environment. As AFP put it, “people should always have a need of nature”. By missing nature, humans may come to respect — and live in harmony with — nature once again.
【小题1】What can we infer from Marcelo Giagnoni’s statements? A．Wild animals have wandered around streets.
B．Humans have to move away from their habitat.
C．Wild species were forced to flee their home.
D．It is good for humans to get back their land.
【小题2】What does the underlined word “jostle” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A．Push. B．Struggle. C．Quarrel. D．Negotiate.
【小题3】What can humans get from the lockdown of cities according
to AFP?
A．Having easy access to free space.
B．Getting a clor look at animals.
C．Thinking about the bond with nature.
D．Living in harmony with birds.
【小题4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Temporary Quarantine
B．the Harmony of Nature
