三、阅读理解
A new report by The Rivers Trust (an organization that protects rivers in the UK and Ireland) shows that many rivers are not in good health. But you can help by watching rivers. The group started its new project, Big River Watch, on 6th September, 2024, in the UK and Ireland. It uses technology like smartphone apps to help scientists do better research.
It is important for The Rivers Trust to collect useful information about rivers. This helps them know how dirty the rivers are and what problems they have. It's even better if more people join it. That's because people can check different river areas. Then, scientists can get more information from many places, not just from a few rivers. With more information, they can better understand the real situation of the rivers. So, everyone's help is important because it makes the information about rivers more complete(完整的). This helps scientists make better decisions to protect our rivers.
To join it, you need to download(下载) the free Big River Watch app on your phone at first. Then choose a river, pick a place on the riverside and watch it carefully for 15 minutes. At last, through the app you can send information about the things that you notice in or along the river, like animals, water speed, and pollution.
Experts at The Rivers Trust will study the results and share the information with other organizations. With the results, the government can make much more useful plans of action, and the scientists will find right places for rubbish picks or river clean-ups. And you will know the importance of protecting the rivers by joining Big River Watch.
