                                    Camping

    Camping wild is a wonderful way to experience the natural world and,at its best,it makes little environmental influence.But with in creasing numbers of people wanting to escape into the wilderness,it is  becoming more and more important to camp unobtrusively（不引人注目地）and leave no mark．

  Wild camping is not permitted in many places,particularly in crowded lowland Britain.Wherever you are,find out about organizations responsible for managing wild spaces,and contact them to find out their policy on camping and shelter building.For example,it is fine to camp wild in remote parts of Scotland,but in England you must ask the landowner's permission,except in national parks.

  Camping is about having relaxation,sleeping outdoors,experiencing bad weather,and making do without modern conveniences.A busy,fully-equipped campsite（野营地）seems to go against this,so seek out smaller,more remote places with easy access to open spaces and perhaps beaches.Better still,find a camp Site with no road access:walking in makes a real adventure.

  Finding the right spot to camp is the first step to guaranteeing a good night's sleep.Choose a campsite with privacy and minimum influence on others and the environment.Try to use an area where people have obviously camped before rather than creating a new spot.when camping in wood land,avoid standing dead trees,which may fall on a windy night.Avoid animal runs and caves,and possible homes of biting insects.Make sure you have most protection on the windward side.If you make a fire,do so downwind of your shelter,always consider what influence you might have on the natural world.Avoid damaging plants.A good campsite is found,not made changing it should be unnecessary．

   San Francisco has its cable cars. Seattle has its Space Needle.And,Longview has its squirrel bridge. The bridge,which has attracted international attention,is now a local landmark.

   The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder,Amos Peters,to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.

  The original bridge was built over Olympia Way on the west edge of the library grounds.  Before the bridge was built,squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building where office staff put out a nutty feast for the squirrels. Many times,Peters and others who worked in and near Park Plaza witnessed squirrels being run over.

    One day Peters found a dead squirrel with a nut still in its mouth,and that day's coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety. The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask the blessing of the City Council(市政会 ). The Council approved,and Councilwoman Bess LaRiviere jokingly named the bridge "Nutty Narrows".

   After architects designed the bridge,Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started construction. They built the 60-foot bridge from aluminum and lengths of fire hose(消防水带). It cost  $ 1000.

   It didn't take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge started. Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching them the ropes. The story was picked up by the media,and Nutty Narrows be~a~e known in newspapers all over the world.

   In 1983,after 20 years of use,Peters took down the worn-out bridge. Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced. The faded sign was repainted and in July 1983,hundreds of animal lovers attended the completion ceremony of the new bridge.

   Peters died in 1984,and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.

                      Research Is a State of Mind

   For many ye ars there has been much misunderstanding as to just what research is.The popular conception seems to be that there is something mysterious about it and before any research and large,elaborately equipped laboratories ,actually ,this is not so 26 it is a simple,organized way of trying to accomplish something you wish to do-so simple that anyone can do research anywhere at any time.

   First,you select the problem you would like to solve,then you list at least ten reasons why it has not been solved.  27  It takes just as much effort to solve a useless problem as a useful one  28

   After carefully-and I want to emphasize that word "carefully"selecting the problem and the ten things between you and the solution,you then use the same procedure as in solving a crossword puzzle.  29  In the solution of the remaining obstacles you may need some simple apparatus,but the things you will probably need most are infinite patience and persistence. Few people realize the difficulties of doing any new thing.

  Maybe one of the reasons people are so easily discouraged is because of their education. During all our years at school we were examined two or three times a year.if we failed once,we were out. 30 If we are going to make progress,we must learn to fail intelligently so that we won't become discouraged at the 99. 9 per cent failure.

A. Make sure the game is worth the candle.

B. That is a step in the right direction,but I don't believe it is enough.

C. You take the easy obstacles first and by a process of elimination you eventually arrive at the one or two major ones.

D. But in selecting the problem,you need to be sure to analyze it carefully to see that it is worth the effort.

E. Research isn't a physical thing at all;it's a state of mind.

F. By contrast,all research work is 99. 9 per cent failure and,if we succeed once,we are in.

                          MAjored Finance

   An increase in students   31  to study economics at university is being attributed to（归因于）the global economic crisis awakening a public thirst for knowledge about how the 32 system works.

  Applications for degree courses beginning this autumn were up by 15%this January,according to UCAS,the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service.A  33 for the Royal Economic Society said applications to do economics at A-level were also up.

   Professor John Beath,the president of the society and a leading lecturer at St Andrews University,said his first-year lectures-which are open to students from all departments-were 34 crowds of rather than the usual 250.

  "There are a large number of students who are not  35  majors, who would like to learn something about it. One of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary  36   in  a way that one hasn't traditionally done," he added.

   University applications rose 7% last year. But there were rises above average in several subjects. Nursing saw a is% jump, with people's renewed interest in  37 in the public sector(部门) ,which are seen as more secure in economic crisis.

   A recent study showed almost two thirds of parents  38  schools should do more to teach pupils about financial matters ,and almost half said their children had asked them what was going on,although a  39  0f parents felt they did not understand it themselves well enough to explain.

 Zack hocking,the head of child trust funds,said:“it’s possible that one good thing to  40  from the downturn will be a generation though times of economic uncertainty”
