Trees provid

17、e shade, beauty, and homes for wildlife. Trees give us products like paper and wood. Trees can give us all these only if they are healthy. They must be well cared for to remain healthy. Your trees“ trouble may be you yourself. People spend much time and money planting and maintaining trees. Trees he

18、lp to improve the looks of homes, parks, and public buildings. Yet, people who love trees the most may be the ones who cause them injury. Of course, they do not do this on purpose. They are most likely not aware of the kinds of things that injure trees. There are many people who cause tree injuries.

19、 You should become aware of the injuries and avoid causing them. Learn the things that can help to keep your trees healthy. Healthy trees are beautiful. They make our world a pleasant place to live in. Unhealthy trees are not as beautiful. They make the world less pleasant. Healthy trees help to coo

20、l and clean the air. They can even deaden sound. Unhealthy trees cannot help or protect the environment. (81) Trees, like people, are disturbed by changes around them.

No animals laugh and smileonly human beings do. So does laughing help us to live longer? The answer seems to lie in that s

25、miling and laughing help us to become less worried and calm, preventing illnesses that are caused by stress . Laughing is really the best medicine. But if you“re unhappy, it can“t do you any good to smile, can it? That“s not true. It is clear that smiling works just in the same way whether you feel

26、like smiling or not. Scientists in California asked a group of students to act five different feelings: happiness, sadness, anger, surprise and fearjust using their faces. Changes in their heart rate, blood pressure and temperature were recorded. Most of the feelings they acted didn“t cause changes,

27、 but when the students smiled, their heart rate and their blood pressure went down. That happened even though they were only acting! So even if we feel sad inside, smiling seems to make us feel better. Now, what makes us laugh? (82) It seems that the answer to the question is far from simple. Everyo

34、n regarding your ability on the basis of your application form and interview.

After an hour“s flight one of the scientists wrote in his book

41、, “Look here for probable metals.“ Scientists in another airplane, flying over a mountain region, sent a message to other scientists on the ground, “Gold possible.“ Walking across hilly ground, four scientists reported, “This ground should be searched for metals.“ From an airplane over a hilly waste

42、land a scientist sent back by radio one word, “Uranium.“ None of the scientists had X-ray eyes: they had no magic powers for looking down below the earth“s surface. They were merely putting to use one of the newest methods of locating minerals in the groundusing trees and plants as signs that certai

43、n minerals may lie beneath the ground on which the trees and plants are growing. (85) This newest method of searching for minerals is based on the fact that minerals deep in the earth may affect the kind of trees and bushes that grow on the surface. At Watson Bar Creek, a brook six thousand feet hig

44、h in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada, a mineral search group gathered bags of tree seeds. Boxes were filled with small branches from the trees, and roots were dug out and put into boxes with each bag and box carefully marked.

45、urned to ashes and tested. Each small part was examined to learn whether there were minerals in it. Study of the roots, branches, and seeds showed no silver.
