【文章內(nèi)容簡介】
ago I particularly enjoy the works of Greenwich Village poet Edward Field, whose interest in cinema led to a number of poems based on old monster movies (including many about Frankenstein and my favorite, Curse of the Cat Woman). Litteacher 8 29 minutes ago There are so many to choose from! I love Robert Frost, especially Mending Wall, mostly because he is my dad39。s favorite poet. However, personally I love Lnagston Hughes39。s poem Dreams because it always brings happiness to me. I am also a big fan of the older poems, such as Spenser39。s One Day I Wrote Her Name Upon the Strand because it is so simple, and The Tyger and The Lamb by William Blake because I love the language. Michael Ugulini 51 minutes ago My favorite poet is Suji Kwock Kim. Ever since I read her book of poetry Notes from the Divided Country, I have been a big fan of her clear and thoughtful writing. My favorite poem of hers is Borderlands, which she wrote in memory of her grandmother. It is a poem about her grandmother39。s experiences during the war. Loraaa 1 hour ago Hard to decide! But if I have to, I39。d say Emily Dickinson. Her life was so wonderful and her opinions about life are also interesting.

Rain, especially, helps plants grow and stay green. But too much rain, especially in cities, can lead to flooding. That can cause waste water systems to overflow and send pollutants into rivers and other waterways. To fight the problem, several cities in the United States are starting programs like rooftop gardens. A team at the University of the District of Columbia in the nation39。s capital has created a garden on the top of one school building. The garden holds many kinds of plants to help absorb rainwater and grow food at the same time. Architect David Bell has designed five green roofs for the university. He says he is excited about the project because it meant doing something more than just dealing with storm water management. It took advantage of a resource above the city and these flat roofs that aren39。t doing anything really became something that was about urban agriculture. Rainwater is collected in large containers and sent through a system that waters the rooftop garden. The roof is filled with green life that appeals to insects. In cities, you don39。t have that many spaces to choose from and so rooftops are just (unused) space, says Caitlin Arlotta. She is a student in the school39。s Urban Agriculture program. The project is part of a research program to see which plants do well on rooftops. The researchers are looking at plants including strawberries, tomatoes and sweet potatoes. The university also has other green spaces. We also have our own farm experiments, Arlotta said. Within each of those growing systems, we want to be able to tell people which sorts of these crops grow the best. Sandy Farber Bandier helps run UDC39。s Master Gardener program. It seeks to improve cities and make them beautiful by training people to bee Master Gardeners. She says she39。s been surprised by the garden39。s output. My biggest surprise was that we produced 4, 250 pounds of produce the first year and was able to spread that to people in need. She also likes being able to show people who live in D. C. and others beyond the nation39。s capital what and how food can be grown on a rooftop. This is the future for food. You grow it here, you prepare it in a mercial kitchen, you distribute through farmers markets, food trucks, and then you recycle.(1)What do we know about the rooftop gardens?
