The next day, the class started with an unexpected announcement by the teacher:
— Students, as part of a practical lesson in natural science, we will go to the Black book plants reserve for three days so that you can prepare a report by the end of this semester. Parallel classes that study this topic will also go with you.
There was a surge of dissatisfied voices throughout the office.
— Teacher! Why can't we just read about it in a book?
— Yes, yes! Why drag us into the forest for the sake of some weeds?!
— I don't want to go!
The man exhaled noisily. Of course, he expected that the capricious children of aristocrats would not agree to such a thing at the first attempt.
— The book will not give you the real knowledge that you can get from your own experience, — he continued calmly, — You will have the opportunity to see such rare plants live, and not just in pictures. Wouldn't that be more useful than regular cramming?
