Are the natural wonders really crying aloud
What feeling does this way of writing give you
No, they aren’t. The passage uses personification to show the serious situation.
It makes me feel as if the natural wonders are talking to me. I feel sad for them and want to help them.
这里用到的拟人的修辞手法，把人类的特征或行为赋予非人类的实体或无生命的物体。在这个短语中“自然奇观”被赋予了人类“大声呼救”的行为，仿佛自然奇观拥有情感，能像人类一样表达需求。

In Frozen, the world is cold and full of ice and snow. In Waterworld, the world is covered in water, with no land. The writer mentions the two films to show the serious problem of climate change.
