题目列表(包括答案和解析)
Trees are useful to man in three important ways: they give him wood and other useful things, they give him cool places, and they help to stop drought and flood.
Unluckily, in many parts of the world, man has not found that the third of these points is the most important. Man wants to make money from trees, so he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. And also, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear.
This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are even worse: for where there are trees, their roots break up soil-make the rain in-and also bind the soil, thus stopping it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left but useless desert.

Reading comprehension.
Trees are very useful to men in three important ways: they supply them with wood and other products; they give them shade; and they help to prevent drought and floods.
Unluckily, in many parts of the world, people have not realized the third of these services is the most important. In their eagerness to make money from trees, some people have cut trees down in large numbers, only to find that they have lost the best friends they had. And besides, they are usually too careless to plant and look after new trees, so the forests solely disappear.
This does not only mean that men will have fewer trees. The results are even more serious: where there are trees, their roots break up soil--allowing the rain to sink in--and also bind the soil, preventing it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top--soil. When all the top--soil is gone, nothing stays but worthless desert.

We should look after our treesWe should always remember to look after our trees as they are very important for our planet and in our lives.
First, trees keep the air clean because they give off the gas oxygen, which humans and animals need to breathe.They also take in other gases, like carbon dioxide, that we do not need.
Second, because the roots of trees hold the soil together they stop it from being washed away.In some parts of the world where a great many trees have been cut down, the land has been completely destroyed.
Trees provide homes for many different types of birds and animals, and they also supply their food.If trees are cut down, there will be no place for these birds and animals to live and nothing for them to eat.
In addition, trees often help in keeping us cool because they shade us from the hot sun.
Sometimes they also offer shelter(遮蔽)or protection from bad weather.
Finally, trees are beautiful to look at.The world would be a much uglier place if there were no trees.
All around the world forests are being cut down.We should look after the trees that are left and make sure that more are planted to replace those that have already been destroyed.
