　　It took George quite a while to find a place for his car and in the end he had to leave it in a narrow street, some way from the dentist's (牙科医生). As he got out, he looked at his watch: he would meet the dentist at five and he still had twenty minutes. He crossed into the square (广场) and sat down in a chair, to enjoy the last of the afternoon sun, but also to make himself quiet. He hated these visits to the dentists.

　　As he sat there, watched the children at play and listened to the old women talking, he was surprised (惊奇的) to see a red car like his own come out of the street where he had parked. The car moved fast and soon disappeared (消失). George felt in his pockets for his keys: they were not there.

　　“My car!” he shouted in a loud voice (嗓音), which made several people look at him. He got up and ran across the square, then down the narrow street. His car was not to be seen? But then he found it was behind a large one. He was happy to find his keys, still in his car.

　　By the time he reached the dentist's, it was already after five. “A very strange thing happened to me,” he said to the dentist to explain (解释) why he was late. “I thought my car had been stolen (偷).”“It's quite all right, sir,” said the dentist. “In fact (实际上) I have only just got here myself.”

 Today we can see that many people are cutting down the trees in the forests. A lot of        lands have become deserts. If we read newspapers, we’ll learn that the forests on the earth are getting smaller       . We are cutting down large numbers of trees        we need wood and farmland. Some scientists say that there will not be any great forests        20 or 30 years.

What will happen if the forests disappear? A lot of plants will die and the animals will      

their homes. In many places the new farmland will soon look        the old desert. Crops will not grow there. There won’t be enough       , and the weather will get hot and dry. If the climate of the earth changes, life will be        for everyone. Our living environment will become       . More and more rich farmland will disappear. We will suffer a lot from both droughts (干旱) and floods.

It’s our duty        the forests well. Everyone should try his best to make a contribution (贡献) to taking care of the forests. Stop cutting down the trees and make the world greener!
