One of the most amazing trees in the world is known as baobab trees (猴面包树). This kind of tree mainly grows in South Africa and Australia.
Sometimes, it is hard to tell what the name of a tree is because they look like each other. _________ They look quite different, so people can tell them from other trees. Baobab trees are very wide at the base (底部), so people often take shelter (庇护) under them. One baobab in Australia was large enough for people to rest in it as a room. And it was so strong and wide that it could hold a large group of people. The strongest baobab tree in the world is over 1,835 years old now.
People also call the baobab the “giving tree”. Its fruit is very delicious and is a delicious snack that is eaten in many African countries. Also, the fruit is very healthy. Of course, the baobab also provides the people there with some shades (阴凉处) during hot days.
Sadly, in recent years, baobab trees are dying because of some reasons like the change of environment and overuse. In order to protect them, the governments there have made laws to stop cutting too many trees. Some scientists are also doing research to better understand the baobab. The people there can also help to protect the baobab trees.

One of the most amazing trees in the world is known as baobab trees (猴面包树). This kind of tree mainly grows in South Africa and Australia.
Sometimes, it is hard to tell what the name of a tree is because they look like each other. _________ They look quite different, so people can tell them from other trees. Baobab trees are very wide at the base (底部), so people often take shelter (庇护) under them. One baobab in Australia was large enough for people to rest in it as a room.
