Man has a blood tie with nature and nobody can live outside nature. Nature provides us with we need: the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. For quite a long time after man began to live in the realm (1) of nature, he lived in fear of its destructive forces. he used to regard nature with its elemental (2) forces as something hostile to him. And even the forest was something wild and frightening to him. very often ,he was unable to obtain (3) the merest daily necessities though he worked together with others stubbornly (4) and collectively with his imperfect tools , through his interaction with nature , man changed it gradually . he cut down forest , cultivated land , transferred (5) various species of plants and animals to different climatic conditions, changed the shape and climate of his environment and transformed (6) pants and animals. he subdued (7) and disciplined electricity and compelled it to serve the interests of society. Nonetheless , with the constant expansion (8) of agriculture and industry , man has robbed nature of too much of its irreplaceable (9) resources , polluted his own living environment and caused about 95% of the species that have existed over the past 600 million years to become extinct (10) and still many others to be endangered . the previous dynamic (11) balance between man and nature is on the verge (12) of breaking down . man is now faced with the problem of how to stop , or at least to moderate (13) the destructive effect of technology on nature . The crisis of the ecological (14) situation has become a global problem . the solution to the problem depends on rational (15) and wise organization both of production itself and care for mother nature . this can only be done by all humanity , rather than by individuals , enterprises or separate countries. Close3 According to craig Russell , when we make an initial effort in our personal quests for knowledge , we may not even know that a certain field of learning exists . but , after we have done some reading ,we will get to know more about the topic (1) .at the same time ,we may feel that all the reading creates (2) more questions rather than answers them . we then realize how little we really (3) know and how much more we need to read and think and write . Russell suggests that we write after reading each time . his experience tells him that it is his writing that has led him to acquire a better grasp (4) of the topic he studies . people may think that only those who know and who are sure (5) of themselves write . for Russell , however , its just the opposite (6),for writing doesnt close things off -it opens things up . To say that the more we know , the more we know we dont know seems contradictory (7). according to Russell , modern physics tells us that reality (8) itself is contradictory . the more closely scientists look into our physical (9) reality , the more it slips away from . in a way , the more they learn , the less they know . Craig Russell believes that a proper understanding will inevitably lead us away from the force and rigidity (10) of dogmatism and toward the flexibility and freedom of the individual (11). Therefore, we must temper our pride in knowing with the humility (12) of not knowing. the truth always exists there ,but , it is like the rainbow (13) because we can never really grasp it , never hold it in our hands and truly know it . we can only , as William james said , “live today by what truth we can get today and be ready to call it falsehood (14) tomorrow.” Close6 . Truth is a fact accept as true, for which proof exists .Truth is a great princip
