Conversations 2 - Excerpt

Myra: …Actually, though, I’m looking forward to this course: “Nature’s Influence on Man – Man’s Influence on Nature”! Sounds like a really useful topic, doesn’t it? And Dr Forsythe is supposed to be a very engaging lecturer.

Arthur: Well, his website is a gas, at least! He’s got an hilarious little eco-game on it: shoot the wolves and see how many deer reproduce and eat all the grass!

Myra: Hmm. I suppose that would teach, uh, fifth graders about the balance of nature.

Arthur: Hey, it was fun! Anyway, he’s also got some good information there – it’ll probably come in handy when he gives us homework.
