Question

【題目】 Shenzhen once again took part in Earth hour, as a wide range of activities were held Saturday in Futian District to encourage people not only to switch off the lights between 8:30 p. m. and 9:30 p.m, but also to join millions in protecting biodiversity in the Guangdong- Hong Kong- Macao Greater Bay Area.

Earth Hour, which is held annually, was started by World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF)in 2007. With this year's theme, “Connect to Earth,” WWF also joined hands with One Planet Foundation (OPF)to invite experts to conduct research on and launch an ecological map of the Greater Bay Area, in order to call attention from al1 walks of life to the promotion of ecological progress in the area. The map was officially unveiled at the 2019 Earth Hour event at SCPG Center in Futian.

In addition to this event, a carnival sharing the theme “Connect to earth”. Was organized Saturday and Sunday at the art square in Xiangmi Park, which was open to the public for free.

A representative from WWF and OPF said, “We hope this carnival, through various kinds of activities like games and handicrafts, will raise residents' awareness of the importance of biodiversity where we live. We want to engage more to protect valuable animals in the Greater Bay Area.”

The two-day carnival attracted many children accompanied by their parents. A father on the scene told the Shenzhen Daily, "Interactions like this are great opportunities for kids to learn more about the earth as they don' t get to know this knowledge very often.”

Besides Shenzhen, many other cities in China also held related activities with the same focus on biodiversity but based on the local ecological habitats.
