Obviously, my cat, Rocco, had left a turd (粪便) in his perfect flower beds.Fortunately, I wasnt home when this happened, so he angrily complained to my friend and neighbor Kate
9、about this. She was kind enough to listen to him and to go down into the garden with him to have a look. She even took a picture.When I got home later, Kate had left a message on my answering machine about the incident. Hearing it was about my cat again, my stomach turned. Several weeks before, hed

So, I was a little apprehensive this time.But I couldnt help but laugh when Kate told me the whole story. I understood what gardening meant to him. Since my old neighbor reti

16、the message they actually send. In fact they value achievement and happiness above all else.gkstk.ComThe Making Caring Common Project at Harvards Graduate School of Education surveyed 10,000 middle and high school students about which is more important to themachievement, happiness, or caring about
17、others. Almost 80 percent of students placed achievement or happiness over caring about others. Only 20 percent of students considered caring about others as their top aim.In the study “The Children We Mean to Raise: The Real Message Adults Are Sending about Values”, the authors refer to a reality g
18、ap, an incongruity (不一致) between what adults tell children they should value and the message we grown-ups actually send through our behavior. Simply talking about sympathy is not enough. While 96 percent of parents say they want to raise caring children, and cite the development of moral character a
19、s “very important, if not essential”, 80 percent of the youths surveyed reported that their parents “are more concerned about achievement and happiness than caring about others”. Approximately the same percentage of the students reported that their teachers put their achievement over caring. As the
20、report shows, simply talking about sympathy is not enough. Children are sensitive creatures, fully capable of telling the true meanings in the blank spaces between well-organised words. If parents really want to let their kids know that they value care and sympathy, the authors suggest, they must ma

24、net is getting greener, and we are responsible. Carbon dioxide generated by human activities is promoting photosynthesis (光合作用) and causing a beneficial greening of the Earths surface.For the first time, researchers claim to have shown that the increase in plant cover is due to this “CO2 fertilisati
25、on (肥沃化) effect” rather than other causes. However, it remains unclear whether the effect can reduce any negative effects of global warming, such as the spread of deserts.To home in on the effect of CO2, Randall Donohue of Australias national research institute, the CSIRO in Canberra, monitored vege
26、tation (植被) at the edges of deserts in Australia, southern Africa, the US Southwest, North Africa, the Middle East and central Asia. These are regions where there is plenty of warmth and sunlight, but only just enough rainfall for vegetation to grow, so any change in plant cover must be the result o
27、f a change in rainfall patterns or CO2 levels, or both.If CO2 levels were constant, then the amount of vegetation per unit of rainfall ought to be constant, too. However, the team found that this figure rose by 11 per cent in these areas between 1982 and 2010, mirroring the rise in CO2 emissions (排放
28、). Donohue says this lends strong support to the idea that CO2 fertilization drove the greening.The extra plant growth could have knock-on effects on climate, Donohue says, by increasing rainfall, affecting river flows and changing the likelihood of wildfires. It will also absorb more CO2 from the a
29、ir, potentially damping down (抑制) global warming but also limiting the CO2 fertilization effect itself.Donohue cannot yet say to what extent CO2 fertilisation will affect vegetation in the coming decades. But if it proves to be significant, the future may be much greener.12. According to the author,
