Now a school in Chhattisgarh, India, has come up with a unique idea.Instead of asking for school fees, the school is asking parents to simply plant a tree sapling in the village.

The idea was put into practice by a group of local professionals and businessmen. It is meant to do good things to parents who dont have enough money to send their children to school. So far, the school has received an overwhelming response-700 saplings have been planted across the village.This is just one small step in a village in India, but if the approach(方法)works, it could be something that other schools would follow.“we have provided parents with the seeds and the materials needed to nurture the saplings,” said one school official.“we hope that this initiative（倡议） will not only keep our students learning, but also help educate the next generation on the importance of environmental care.”Tell whether the statement is true or false.5%1.
