If you want to get kids outside to appreciate nature, get some fresh air, or for some plain old fun, here's where to start.

Get out there. The best way to experience nature and all that it offers is to get outside. You won't get all the great benefits of connecting with nature through any book or movie.

Keep it simple. You don't need to plan anything complex, or spend a lot of money. Some of our best "finds" have been from our own yard. Last summer we found our first salamander (蝾螈) in our yard. We had never seen one in our area before and it was really cool. We watched its behavior, looked it up on the internet to find out what kind it was, what it ate and where it spent its time. My son even took its picture to school to show and tell something about it to his classmates. He got so much more involved in finding out more about it because we actually had found a real live one in our yard. What a great teachable moment!

Don't pretend to know what you don't know. You can teach a child to appreciate nature by exploring with him/her. It's not about naming everything you come across. No matter how many years of study I've had in the field of natural science, there will always be things I don't know. If you come across something you can't identify（识别）, just say, "I don't know. Let's look it up together."

Get excited about their discoveries. Yes, even bugs, worms and dirt. The more exhilaration you show, the more likely they are to head out and explore more. Fostering (培养) a sense of curiosity in a child is one of the greatest gifts you can give him/her.

46. The main purpose of the author is to tell us____________________.

A. how to get kids to explore nature

B. the advantages of exploring nature

C. the wonders connected with nature

D. how to get kids interested in exercise

47. If a parent comes across something he doesn't know, he should______.

A. leave it to his kid to explore alone

B. tell his kid directly that he can't identify it either

C. gather as much information about it as possible in secret

D. tell his kid that he has seen it before but can't remember its name

48. Which of the following is against the author's idea?

A. The yard is a good place to explore.

B. Parents should explore together with their kids.

C. The best way to appreciate nature is through reading.

D. It's very important to arouse kids' curiosity about nature.

49. The underlined word "exhilaration" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to______.

A. faith B. convenience C. excitement D. knowledge

B

Danielle Steel, America's sweetheart, is one of the hardest working woman in the book business. Unlike other productive authors who write one book at a time, she can work on up to five. Her research alone before writing takes at least three years. Once she has fully studied her subjects, ready to dive into a book, she can spend twenty hours nonstop at her desk.

Danielle Steel comes from New York and was sent to France for her education. After graduation, she worked in the public relations and advertising industries. Later she started a job as a writer which she was best fit for. Her achievements are unbelievable: 390 million copies of books in print, nearly fifty New York Times best-selling novels, and a series of “Max and Martha” picture books for children to help them deal with the real-life problem of death, new babies and new schools. Her l998 book about the death of her son was shot to the top of the New York Times best-selling list as soon as it came out. Twenty-eight of her books have been made into film. She is listed in the Guinness Books of World Records for one of her books being the Times best-seller for 381 weeks straight.

Not content with a big house, a loving family, and a view of the Golden Gate Bridge, Danielle Steel considers her readers to be the most important resource and has kept i
