15、ish Columbia, explains how trees are much more complex(復雜的) than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin(達爾文) thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard and her team have made a new discovery and showed just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees s

16、urvive through their group work and support, passing around necessary nutrition(營養) such as nitrogen(氮) and carbon “depending on who needs it”.Nitrogen(氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks.This makes sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and re

17、ceive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神經元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it influences all.Simard talks about “Mother trees”. These are usually the largest, oldest plants that on which all other tree

18、s depend. These “Mother trees” are connected to all the other trees in the forest by this network of fungi, and may manage the resources of the whole trees and plants in the forest. She explains how these trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important resources to young tree

19、s so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “Mother trees” without paying attention to these highly complex “tree societies” of the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances to save the whole forest.“We didnt take any notice of it,” Simard says sadly. “Mother trees” move nutr

20、ition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance. If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.1The underlined sentence “the opposite is true” in Paragraph 2 probably mea

23、 are cut down, they wont make difference to young trees.Dtrees can share resources with other ones by the underground fungi networks.B14、Have you ever had a nightmare(噩夢)? Almost everyone has one once in a while. A nightmare is a bad dream, which may make you feel scared, anxious, or upset, but nigh

24、tmares are not real and cant harm you. While you are sleeping, your brain just doesnt stop working.
