Recently I read this post form Richard Louv. Mr. Louv is the writer of Last Child in the Woods: Saving our Children form nature Deficient Disorder(自然缺失癥).
My favorite part of this post is Mr. Louv’s opening story about a dad from South Carolina who buys a small truck load of dirt for his kids to play in. This is such a wonderful idea, one that might even be considered wise in view of how controlled parenting and play have gotten recently. In South Carolina the price of a small load of dirt and a video game are the same! So bring on the dirt!
Connecting our children in play with this sort of simplicity and imagination will serve them for the rest of their lives. The habits they form now will be with them forever. So if they are used to playing on the iPad in their free time, that is what they will do for the rest of their lives. If they take a walk, play in the woods or dig in the dirt, then as adults they will feel at ease(自由自在) in nature.
The respect they have for nature will help develop a respect for people. After all our natural environment is something we all have in common. Learning this basic respect will help our kids in the global community that we now live in.
Strangely it seems that having a young child spend more time on the Internet doesn’t actually increase their tolerance(容忍) for others. It actually decreases their ability to feel empathy(同感) because they have not properly learned that those on the other end of the conversation are real, living human beings.
So next time the school district suggests more computers, stop and consider how many loads of dirt you could buy with the same money. Dirt is worry-free, stress-free and provides hours of free play with no long-term negative effect on our kids. What could be better than that?

A. don’t know much about the real world B. don’t like to talk with real humans any more
C. can’t find out who is talking with them D. think they are talking with virtual people
70. What would be the best title for the passage?
