Farmers, especially in developing countries, are often criticized for cutting down forests. But a new study suggests that many farmers recognize the value of keeping trees.

Researchers using satellite images found at least ten percent tree cover on more than one billion hectares of farmland. That is almost half the farmland in the world. Earlier estimates were much lower but incomplete. The authors of the new study say it may still underestimate the true extent worldwide.

The study found the most tree cover in South America. Next comes Africa south of the Sahara, followed by Southeast Asia. North Africa and West Asia have the least.

The study found that climate conditions alone could not explain the amount of tree cover in different areas. Nor could the size of nearby populations, meaning people and trees can live together. There are areas with few trees but also few people, and areas with many trees and many people. The findings suggest that things like land rights, markets or government policies can influence tree planting and protection.

Dennis Garrity, who heads the World Agroforestry Center, says farmers are acting on their own to protect and plant trees. The problem, he says, is that policy makers and planners have been slow to recognize this and to support such efforts.

The satellite images may not show what the farmers are using the trees for, but trees provide nuts, fruit, wood and other products. They also help prevent soil loss and protect water supplies. Even under drought(干旱)conditions, trees can often provide food and a way to earn money until the next growing season.

Some trees act as natural fertilizers. They take nitrogen(氮气)out of the air and put it in the soil. Scientists at the Center say the use of fertilizer trees can re-duce the need for chemical nitrogen by up to three-fourths. Trees also capture carbon dioxide, a gas linked to climate change.

1.Through the study, the researchers found that .

A. there are more trees on farmlands than expected

B. fewer trees are being cut in developing countries

C. most farmers still don’t realize the value of trees

D. trees play a key role in preventing climate change

2.Which of the following has the least tree cover?

A. Southeast Asia B. West Asia.

C. South America. D. Africa south of the Sahara.

3.In Dennis Garrity’s opinion, .

A. most farmers care about nothing but their own interests

B. there are usually few people living in areas with few trees

C. government plays a small role in tree planting and protection

D. government should support farmers in planting and protecting trees

4.The sixth paragraph mainly tells about .

A. how farmers plant trees

B. what products trees can bring

C. the importance of trees to farmers

D. the environmental value of tree cover

Isn’t it interesting how we expect others to behave in a certain way so we can feel good about ourselves? And then when people don't behave as we want them to, we feel so disappointed and angry ––– when really, most times, we’re not actually surprised at their actions? We just want those actions to be different ––– actions we’d be more comfortable with.

This week I shared a friend a wonderful home-cooked meal and a bottle of wine. About the time we got to the freshly-baked cookies, the conversation turned to her somewhat crazy sister. I had to smile, just a little, since her sister-stories had had much the same theme for the last two decades.When her frustration was just about to peak over her sister’s latest unbelievably selfish act, I suggested she begin trying “The Law of Patient Acceptance.” “How can I possibly accept her behavior?” my friend asked. “Acceptance doesn’t necessarily mean tolerance,” I shared. “It just means that you accept the person for who they are and you stop knocking yourself out trying to change them.”

Everyone has these difficult people in their lives from time to time. “Think of it this way,” I said. “If you were to go out and buy an ottoman(搁脚凳) today, thinking you were buying a chair, you’d be really angry that the ottoman was such a pathetic(差劲的) chair. But once you realize what you’re dealing with, once you accept the ottoman for what it is and you stop trying to turn it into a chair, your anger largely goes away.”

You have to accept people for who they are. Even when you’ve had high hopes that they might have been able to be someone else. “You can’t change people,” my Mother always said. And she was right. The best we can do is to see people as clearly and objectively as possible. For they rarely change.

1.According to the second paragraph, we can know that ________.

A. the writer thinks her friend should talk about her sister that way

B. the writer’s friend often complains about her sister

C. the writer advises her friend to spend more time with her sister

D. the writer doesn’t think her friend’s sister is selfish

2.By mentioning the example of buying an ottoman, the writer intends to explain ________.

A. how “The Law of Patient Acceptance” works

B. what the meaning of “The Law of Patient Acceptance” is

C. why greed and selfishness exist

D. when we should use “The Law of Patient Acceptance”

3.According to the writer, ________.

A. we should accept others for who they are

B. we should try to change others

C. we shouldn’t make friends with difficult people

D. we shouldn’t have high hopes for ourselves
