3 0

<span>John Muir thought that the parks should be preserved for poor people as well as rich. Thus, Americans of all sorts shared the same need for getting back in touch with nature. Though Recreation on National Parks is commonly expressed purpose of the parks which usually means outdoors exercise in the form of hiking, camping, fishing or boating, it fits on John Muir understanding that recreation should be a re-creating of our inner selves through immersion in nature. He wrote in his book of “Our National Parks” on 1901 that the parks should offer winldness which is another word for nature and that wildness is a necessity. Moreover, he belived that a nation of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people seek in the parks an escape from the vice of over-industry and the deadly apathy of luxury. </span>

REFLECT! John Green stated that it might have been better if the Persians beat the Greeks. Do you agree with him? Why or why not

Trava [24]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I do not agree with what John Green said.

John Green stated that it might have been better if the Persians beat the Greeks. His arguments were that the Persian life was not bad. Persians ruled prosperous cities. And he comments that life was not easy in ancient Greece if you were a woman or a slave.

Of course, Greece was not perfect and had many issues. But the Persia Empire also had its many issues too.

I think it was good that Greece won the Persian Wars. The Greek victory established a foundation of a classical time in which Greece "exported" the idea of democracy to other states, as well as the philosophical ideas of great thinkers of Athens. Arts, literature, sculpture, and architecture were other important Greek influences that transcended the test of time.
