Why can she get along well with the chimp?
Jane Goodall: An Extra ordinary life
In 1960, Jane arrived in East Africa to study the area’s chimpanzee. Jane’s work in Tanzania would prove more successful than anyone had imagined.
P1 Then we follow as they wander into the forest. Most of the time, chimps either feed or clean each other as a way of showing love in their family. Jane warns us that our group is going to be very tired and dirty by the afternoon and she is right. However, the evening makes it all worthwhile. We watch the 宾从 mother chimp and her babies play in the tree. Then we see them go to sleep together in their nest for the night. We realize that the bond between members of a chimp family is as strong as in a human family.
Turn off unnecessary lights.
When you leave a room, make sure the lights are off.
Having lights set on a timer may help you reduce the time they’re left on.
Only if we can understand can we care; Only if we care will we help; Only if we help shall all the life is hopeful.
—Jane Goodall
to clean up litter
Use fewer plastic products to limit ocean pollution. Reusable water bottles, food containers, and shopping bags help reduce the amount of plastic used that eventually ends up in the ocean.

然后这群黑猩猩向森林深处漫步而去，我们尾随其后。在大部分时 间里，黑猩猩或相互喂食，或彼此擦身，这在它们的家庭里是表示 爱的方式。简预先提醒我们，到下午的时候我们就会又脏又累。她 说对了。不过到傍晚时分我们觉得这一切都是值得的。我们看到黑 猩猩妈妈跟她的幼子们在树上玩耍，后来看见它们晚上一切回窝里 睡觉了。我明白了猩猩家庭成员之间的联系像人类家庭一样紧密。

清晨5点45分，太阳刚从东非的贡贝国家公园的上空升起，我们一 行人准备按照简研究黑猩猩的方法去森林里拜访它们。简研究这些 黑猩猩家族已经很多年了，她帮助人们了解黑猩猩跟人类的行为是 多么的相似。我们当天的首项任务就是观察黑猩猩一家是如何醒来 的。这意味着我们要返回前一天晚上我们离开黑猩猩一家睡觉的大 树旁。大家坐在树荫下等待着，这时候猩猩们睡醒了，准备离开。

P1 It is 5:45 am and the sun is just rising over Gombe National Park in East Africa. Following Jane's way of studying chimps, our group are all going to visit them in the forest. Jane has studied these families of chimps for many years and helped people understand how much they behave like humans. Watching a family of chimps wake up is our first activity of the day. This means going back to the place where we left the family sleeping in a tree the night before. Everybody sits and waits in the shade of the trees while the family begins to wake up and move off.
