15、.I have a log cabin in those woods of Northern Wisconsin. I built it by hand and also added a greenhouse to the front of it. It is a joy to live in. In fact, I work out of my home doing audio production and environmental work. As a tool of that trade I have a computer and a studio.Chinese第28頁P(yáng)ara 3-

17、hough I really dont have a clue if she is a he or vice versa) would be more comfortable in the greenhouse. So I put him in the greenhouse. Back he came. And stayed. After a while I got quite used to the fact that as I would check my morning email and on-line news, he would be there with me surveying

21、consin? 第33頁As I looked at him, dead on, his eyes looked directly at me and I heard a tone. The tone seemed to hit me right in the center of my mind. It sounded very nearly like the same one as my computer. In that tone I could hear him “say” to me, “Because I want you to understand”. Yo. That was w

22、eird. “Understand what?” my mind jumped in. Then, after a moment of feeling this communication, I felt I understood why he was there. I came to understand that frogs simply want to hear other frogs and to communicate. Possibly the tone of my computer sounded to him like other tree frogs.Interesting.

23、I kept working. I was working on a story about global climate change and had just received a fax from a friend. The fax said that the earth was warming at 1.9 degrees each decade.

28、e same message that some sober folks have had for us. “There are no more choices.” We have reached the time when we must be the adults for the planet, for the sake of the future generations of human and for frogs.Because we are related.Then I understood that there are no boundaries, that there is no

29、 more time.That we, for the sake of our relatives, must act now.And then I understood, not only why the frog was there, but, also why I am here.Para. 14-18第38頁I found a tree frog in my studio some months ago.
