Hello there!<\/p>\n

Eu imagino que voc\u00ea j\u00e1 tenha estudado o Present Perfect algumas vezes. Ent\u00e3o hoje, em vez de jogar um monte de explica\u00e7\u00f5es pra voc\u00ea, vamos praticar com um texto super interessante chamado “The Web of Life”, que fala sobre a natureza e como o homem est\u00e1 tendo um papel (ruim?) com ela.<\/p>\n

No final do texto tem vocabul\u00e1rio com as defini\u00e7\u00f5es em ingl\u00eas pra voc\u00ea ir se acostumando com o dicion\u00e1rio monol\u00edngue, ok?<\/p>\n

Vamos l\u00e1!<\/p>\n

The Web of Life<\/strong><\/p>\n

This we know: All things are connected like the blood that unites one family. Man did not weave the web of life. He is merely a strand in it. What he does to the web, he does to himself.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The Indians love the sky and the clouds, trees and animals, mountains, rocks, and rivers. Man\u2019s feeling of identity with nature is beautifully expressed in a poem of the Pueblo, a tribe of Indians of North America, who used to live in the Southwest of what is now the United States.<\/p>\n

The poem gives us the thoughts of an Indian life and death. It shows how the Indians accepted their place in the beautiful plan of nature. All living things, the poem tells us, share the Earth. When we die, we give back to nature what we have borrowed.<\/p>\n

I have killed the rabbit
\nI have crushed the grasshopper
\nAnd the plants he feeds upon.
\nI have cut through the heart
\nI have taken fish from water
\nAnd birds from the sky.
\nIn my life I needed death
\nSo that my life can be.
\nWhen I die, I must give life
\nTo what has nourished me.
\nThe Earth receives my body
\nAnd gives it to the caterpillars
\nTo the birds
\nAnd to the coyotes,
\nEach in its own time so that
\nThe web of life is never broken.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
