  Equipped only with a pair of binoculars(双筒望远镜)and ready to spend long hours waiting in all weathers for a precious glance of a rare bullfinch(红腹灰雀),Britain's birdwatchers had long been supposed to be lovers of a minority sport.But new figures show birdwatching is fast becoming a popular pastime,with almost three million of us absorbed in our fluttering feathered friends.

  Devoted birdwatchers,those prepared to travel thousands of miles for a sighting of a rare Siberian bird,are fast being joined by a new breed of follower whose interest is satiated by watching a few finches(雀科鸣鸟)on a Sunday walk or putting up a birdbox in the back garden.

  “Almost three million UK birdwatchers is certainly possible if you include everyone with only a casual interest,”Stephen Moss said in his newly published book— A Bird in the Bush:a Social History of Birdwatching — which records the pursuit from the rich Victorian Englishman's love of shooting rare birds to the less offensive observational tendencies of birdwatchers today.

  Television wildlife programmes have helped to fuel the new trend.Last summer,BBC 2's Britain Goes Wild was a surprise success.It pulled in three million viewers and led to bird-houses selling out across the UK as 45000 people promised to put up a box.

  Birdwatchers' networking system first came to the attention of the nation in 1989,when a birdwatcher caught sight of the first Vermivora chrysoptera— a goldenwinged songbird from North America to be seen in Britain.He put a message out on the network service Birdline,and the next day 3000 birdwatehers proved the full pull of a truly rare bird as they visited the Tesco car park in Kent,where it had settled.Today,birdwatchers can log on to www.birdline.com.uk or have news of the latest sightings texted to their phones.

  “Multimillion-pound spending on binoculars,bird food and boxes point to the increasing numbers of birdwatchers,”said David Cromack,the editor of Bird Watching magazine.“The number of people involved is so big that they have great potential to influence government decisions affecting the environment.”

Some years ago, writing in my diary used to be a usual activity. I would return from school and spend the expected half hour recording the day’s events, feelings, and impressions in my little blue diary. I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words, but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever recorded on paper. After all, isn’t accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?

 When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley, well-equipped with pens, a diary, and a camera. During the trip, I was busy recording every incident, name and place I came across. I felt proud to be spending my time productively, dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels. On my last night there, I wandered out of my tent, diary in hand. The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows. I automatically took out my pen….

At that point, I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley. All I remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations I had set down in my diary.

Now, I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling. I still love to record ideas and quotations that strike me in books, or observations that are particularly meaningful. I take pictures, but not very often—only of objects I find really beautiful. I’m no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old. I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay behind the camera, busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future.

I don’t want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes. Maybe I won’t have as many exact representations of people and places; maybe I’ll forget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always remain inside me. I don’t live to make memories—I just live, and the memories form themselves.

1. Before the age of thirteen, the author regarded keeping a diary as a way of ______.

A. observing her school routine     B. expressing her satisfaction

C. impressing her classmates       D. preserving her history

2.What caused a change in the author’s understanding of keeping a diary?

A. A dull night on the journey.

B. The beauty of the great valley.

C. A striking quotation from a book

 D. Her concerns for future generations.

3.What does the author put in her diary now?

A. Notes and beautiful pictures.

B. Special thoughts and feelings.

C. Detailed accounts of daily activities.

D. Descriptions of unforgettable events.

4.The author comes to realize that to live a meaningful life is ______.

A. to experience it             B. to live the present in the future

C. to make memories           D. to give accurate representations of it
