 It's a common school day at Southern Cross School near the famous Kruger National Park in South Africa. Teachers and pupils don't sit in a classroom. I {#blank#}1{#/blank#}   , they go through the forest or sit under the trees.

The school teaches students all the same s  {#blank#}2{#/blank#}  as the rest of the country's schools, but the teaching methods are completely different. Southern Cross uses nature as a teaching tool. The teachers and their pupils go out into nature and work with animals and plants. These can be used to study a  {#blank#}3{#/blank#} from maths and social sciences to languages. The school is in an area where animals live wild and can be hunted. To get to class, students travel a road through the forest that wild animals use as well.

 The classroom for small preschoolers is a little different from the rest of the school. For example, the first lesson of the day is maths, but the teaching method is very s  {#blank#}4{#/blank#}  .In this school you won't hear a teacher saying “Count how many apples Jane has in her basket.”Actually, the children visit a nearby river to count the number of marks left by animals. This way they can see how many different animals come to d   {#blank#}5{#/blank#}   during the night.

 The students are encouraged to take care of the injured and small animals. If they find a dead animal in the area, they study where the animal fits in the foot chain and how and why it d  {#blank#}6{#/blank#}   .

    Mr White works in an office. He liked reading in bed when he was at school. It was bad for his 1 and now he has near sight (近视). But he wouldn't want 2 to know about it and he never wears a pair of glasses. It often 3 him some trouble.

    One winter morning he was sent to a village school on business. He 4 a bus at a stop in a small town. Then he had to walk there. The road to the village wasn't smooth(平坦). He fell over some times and it 5 his clothes dirty. 6 he got to the village. Suddenly it began to blow and it got colder. He was looking for the school while his 7 was blown off.

    We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} we are young, we can still do something to help.

    Remember these three words: reduce, reuse and {#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

    Reduce means "use less". If we stop wasting, we can not only {#blank#}5{#/blank#} money but also reduce pollution and waste. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as good! If {#blank#}6{#/blank#}, choose local products and try not to buy too many things from abroad when we do need something.

    Reuse means "use again". Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} sure that they can last a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last long and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag. It's better to use a china(瓷器) cup and lunch box because you can use them {#blank#}8{#/blank#}.

   Recycle means "change things {#blank#}9{#/blank#} something else". Although it takes energy to do this, it's better than throwing things away or burning them. We can do this in many ways. For example, we can find out {#blank#}10{#/blank#} can be recycled in our neighborhood and take part in the recycling programs and we can also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper to help save trees.

Dear expert,

    I'm sorry to tell you that I have too many {#blank#}1{#/blank#}at home. I must {#blank#}2{#/blank#}up early in the morning and make the bed.

Yours,
