Plants are very important. They take in air through tiny(极小的)holes in their leaves. With sunlight, they turn this air into food and give out oxygen(氧气).People thought plants lost most of their water through these tiny holes. When it is hot, the holes close so plants don't lose too much water. But a new study found that when it is hot, plants lose more water through a layer(层)on their leaves. This layer cannot close. So, in very hot weather, plants keep losing water but can't take in air to make food. This makes it hard for them to clean the air. If it gets too hot, plants might even release carbon dioxide back into the air. This could make climate change worse. Scientists said this could happen when it is about30℃. 植物可以通过吸收二氧化碳来帮助气候变化。但是，如果天气变得太热，他们可能会做相反的事情（反面），一项新的研究说。 植物非常重要。它们通过叶子上的微小（极小的）孔吸入空气。在阳光的作用下，它们将这些空气转化为食物并释放出氧气（氧气）。人们认为植物通过这些小孔流失了大部分水分。当天气炎热时，孔会关闭，这样植物就不会流失太多水分。 但一项新的研究发现，当天气炎热时，植物会通过叶子上的一层（层）流失更多的水分。此层无法闭合。因此，在非常炎热的天气里，植物会不断失去水分，但无法吸收空气来制造食物。这使得他们很难清洁空气。 如果天气变得太热，植物甚至可能会将二氧化碳释放回空气中。这可能会使气候变化变得更糟。科学家们表示，当温度约为 30°C 时，可能会发生这种情况。 长难句分析 1.Plants can help with climate change by taking in carbon dioxide. 句子分析：该句为主谓宾结构。主语是 “Plants”（植物）；谓语是 “can help with”（有助于）；宾语是 “climate change”（气候变化）；“by taking in carbon dioxide” 是方式状语，其中 “by + 动名词短语” 表示通过某种方式，“taking in” 是动名词短语，意为 “吸收”。 翻译：植物可以通过吸收二氧化碳来帮助应对气候变化。 2.With sunlight, they turn this air into food and give out oxygen. 句子分析：“With sunlight” 是伴随状语，说明动作发生的条件；主语 “they” 指代前文的 “plants”（植物）；“turn this air into food” 和 “give out oxygen” 是由 “and” 连接的两个并列谓语部分，其中 “turn... into...” 是固定搭配，意为 “把…… 变成……”，“give out” 意为 “释放”。 翻译：在阳光的作用下，它们把这种空气变成养分并释放氧气。 3.So, in very hot weather, plants keep losing water but can't take in air to make food. 句子分析：“So” 是连词，表结果；“in very hot weather” 是时间状语；主语是 “plants”（植物）；“keep losing water” 是第一个谓语部分，“keep + 动名词” 表示 “持续做某事”；“but” 是转折连词，连接前后两个相反的情况；“can't take in air” 是第二个谓语部分；“to make food” 是目的状语，说明 “take in air” 的目的。 翻译：因此，在非常炎热的天气里，植物会持续失去水分，却不能吸收空气来制造养分。 重点词汇梳理 单词 / 短语 音标 词性 释义 拓展 change /tʃeɪndʒ/ n. 变化；在本文中指气候变化 v. 改变；change one's mind 改变主意 take in / / 吸收；在本文中指植物吸收二氧化碳 例句：Trees take in carbon dioxide and give out oxygen. 树吸收二氧化碳并释放氧气。 lose /luːz/ v. 失去；丢失；在本文中指植物失去水分 lost (过去式 / 过去分词)；lose weight 减肥 air /eə(r)/ n. 空气；在本文中指植物吸收和释放的空气 in the air 在空中；fresh air 新鲜空气 release /rɪˈliːs/ v. 释放；排放；在本文中指植物释放二氧化碳 release into 释放到…… make... worse / / 使…… 更糟；在本文中指使气候变化更严重 例句：Pollution makes the environment worse. 污染使 环境更糟。 Passage 1实战演练 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成句子。 The sunflower is a popular plant today and will be in the future too.
