ometimesallittakesisgoingoutdoorsandgazingupattheheavens.(要教育孩子，有时只需要走到户外，仰望天空)”可知，作者通过本文想要传达的主题信息是大自然是最好的课堂。故选A项。CInordertomeetgrowingfoodproductionandenergyneedsinlow-andmiddle-incomecountries,solar-poweredgroundwaterirrigation(灌溉)israpidlygainingground.Morethan500,000solarpumps(泵)havebeensetupinsouthAsiaoverthelastfewyearsandamajorexpansionisplannedacrosssub-SaharanAfrica.DustinGarrick,professorintheSchoolofEnvironment,ResourcesandSustainability,alongwithaninternationalteam,examinedthetrendtowardsolarpumpsasaclearopportunityforboostingagriculturalyieldsandreducingpoverty,buttheopportunitycomeswithrisks.Whilereplacingelectricorgaspumpswithsolar-poweredirrigationholdsthepromiseofreducingcarbonemissions(排放),itisnotguaranteed.Farmerswhohaveaccesstothesepumpsmayexpandproductionofcropsordiversifyintootheractivities,whicharenotemissionsneutral.Solarpumpswillincreasegroundwaterpumpingefficiency,whichmaybedesirableinregionsthatsupportsuchincreases,butthiscouldworsengroundwaterlesseninginregionsthatarealreadystressed.Thecheapcleanenergyofsolarpumpsmayleadtoincreasedgroundwaterdevelopment,withoutnecessarilydecreasingoverallemissions.Despitethesechallenges,theclean-energyboostcanserveasastimulusforpositivechangeinwaterandenergymanagementbutwillrequireenhancedregulationandplanninginbothlow-andhigh-incomesettings.Garrickandhisteamadvocateforimproveddatacollectioninitiatives,withashiftfromseparatedtointegratedapproaches.Theysuggestusingtechnologytomeasurewaterpumpingandcollectingremotelysenseddatatomonitorlandusechanges.Aswell,regulatoryimprovementsarecrucial,withmountinglimitsforcarbonemissionsandgroundwaterlesseningestablishedatvariouslevels.Withgroundwatermanagementalreadyadifficultchallenge,wemustactfasttounderstandtheimplicationsofthecleanenergyboostandpovertyreductionactstoavoidthesegainsbeingwonawaybywellsrunningdry.Therapidadoptionofsolarirrigationintensifiestheurgency,demandingadaptationfromgovernmentsandinstitutionstosailthroughthesecomplexities.8.Accordingtoparagraph3,thereisaconflictbetween________.A.poorfarmersandsolar-poweredirrigation.
