Procedure
1. Warm-up
Ex.1 p.113
Read and discuss these quotations. Isn’t it horrifying if landscapes of great wonder and beauty are destroyed? What will happen if we don’t hand down prosperous, amplified and developed land to our children? Give your reasons.
Landscapes of great wonder and beauty lie under our feet and all around us. They are discovered in tunnels in the ground, the hearts of flowers, the hollows of trees, fresh-water ponds, seaweed jungles between tides, and even drops of water. Life in these hidden worlds is more startling in reality than anything we can imagine. How could this earth of ours, which is only a speck in the heavens, have so much variety of life, so many curious and exciting creatures? (Walt Disney)
To waste, to destroy our natural resources, to skin and exhaust the land instead of using it so as to increase its usefulness will result in undermining in the days of our children the very prosperity which we ought by right to hand down to them amplified and developed. (Theodore Roosevelt)
What is the use of a house if you haven’t got a tolerable planet to put it on? (Henry David Thoreau)
