Or do you see many other things,such as singing birds, colorful plants and wild flowers? The forest is a whole world of its own. It is full of many different living things. But even though they are all different, they have one thing in common: they all need each other in order to live on.

Their deep network of roots (根) joins the soil together and stops it from dying out(逐渐消失), making it possible for living things to live in it. Human beings(人类) are like the living things in the forest. We need the farmers to grow our food, railroad and truck drivers to bring it to our shops and clerks(职员) to sell it to us. We need 8年级试题 第4 页 共8页 people to prepare our food and cook it and others to take our waste things away.
