27、It’s a warm June afternoon, and in a group of bushes and trees, a bird sings. A small insect climbs over a leaf. The Muziekplein forest, next to an 18-story building and a railway line, is about the size of a basketball court; before it was planted in 2018, the area was a parking place. The forest is one of seven such extremely small forests in the Dutch city of Utrecht, and 144 across the Netherlands. By the end of this year, according to IVN Nature Education, the organization proposing the country’s initiative, there will be 200.

Since the first forest was planted in the Netherlands in 2015, the concept has become popular. Daan Bleichrodt, who launched IVN’s Tiny Forest initiative with the goal of making it easier for children to get into and connect with nature, said that he thinks it is popular because people are becoming more aware of major environmental challenges. It’s a very practical way to do something positive in the light of climate change and loss of biodiversity.

Jeroen Schenkels, a senior adviser for the city of Utrecht on green planning, said he sees the mini-forests as nature-based approaches that are able to help the city weather heat waves and improve water retention(保持). But one of the biggest interests is social. “One of the most important things is that they give people the opportunity to be involved in nature in the neighbourhood,” Schenkels said.

Between 2018 and 2020, 40 different plant and animal groups and 121 total animal species were found in the Muziekplein forest alone. According to Wageningen University researchers, across the 11 tiny forests in their study, volunteers observed 636 animal species. They also identified 298 plant species in addition to the original species planted in the plots. Maintenance of the forests occasionally involves removing aggressive weeds, but in general new plant species, such as wildflowers that appear, are allowed to grow.

【1】What is special about the Muziekplein forest?

A．It is newly planted.

B．It sits in an urban area.

C．It grows along a railway.

D．It is shaped like a basketball court.

【2】What’s the purpose of the Tiny Forest initiative?

A．To call for action on climate change.

B．To increase the Netherlands’ biodiversity.

C．To warn people of environmental challenges.

D．To make nature more accessible to children.

【3】What docs paragraph 3 focus on?

A．Benefits of mini-forests in cities.

B．Ways to keep neighbourhoods green.

C．Inspiration for planting forests in cities.

D．Importance of being exposed to nature.

【4】How does the author state the forests’ effect on biodiversity?

A．By doing experiments.

B．By giving examples.

C．By listing figures.

D．By making comparisons.
