I am an English teacher. I really dn't like that class "Talk abut yur family". The students say," There are five peple in my family. My mther, my father…" It sunds like that all families are the same.

The Amazing Discvery f Plant Cmmunicatin
A recent study frm the Chinese Academy f Sciences(中科院) has fund a wnderful secret f the natural wrld; trees in a frest can actually "talk" t each ther and wrk tgether t help each ther stay healthy and grw. This discvery is changing ur understanding f frests, shwing they are far mre than just many trees grwing in ne place.
The study explains that trees are cnnected by a special web under the grund. This web is made f their rts and a kind f fungi(真菌), which acts like a natural internet, ften called the "Wd Wide Web". When a tree is attacked by insects r is shrt f water, it desn't stay in silence. Instead, it sends ut special messages t tell ther trees abut the danger thrugh this web. Nearby trees that receive these messages will quickly start making special things t prtect themselves.
What's mre, the help desn't stp there. In the frest, there are larger, lder trees, called "mther trees", which play an imprtant rle. They are ften the mst cnnected centre in the web and will even share valuable nutrients(营养素) and water with yunger trees thrugh their rts and the fungi, giving them a better chance t grw better.
This exciting discvery teaches us a very imprtant lessn abut nature. It helps us understand why it's imprtant t prtect whle frest ecsystems, nt just fcusing n single trees. When we cut dwn t many trees, we break their cmmunicatin and supprt webs. Then, they cannt help each ther when there is a big strm, a tree sickness, r ther prblems like climate change. Life becmes much harder fr them.
The research team leader, Dr. Wang, shared his thughts n the bigger lessn: "This teaches us a beautiful lessn abut wrking tgether and cmmunity. Just like trees that supprt each ther uncnditinally, we humans shuld als wrk tgether t prtect ur envirnment. Every
tree matters in a frest, just as every persn matters in ur sciety. " This finding reminds us that we are part f an intercnnected wrld, and ur future depends n learning frm the wisdm f nature.
13. Hw d trees mainly "talk" t each ther accrding t the study?
A. By sending messages thrugh the air.
B. By changing the clr f their leaves.
C. Thrugh their rts and a special web under the grund.
D. By wind and air.
14. What d "mther trees" d t help yunger trees?
A. Give them mre sunlight.B. Share nutrients thrugh their rts.
C. Prtect them frm strng winds.D. Help them fight the insects.
15. What des Dr. Wang mainly want t tell us?
A. Cutting dwn trees is imprtant fr making cities bigger.
B. Humans shuld learn frm trees and wrk tgether.
C. Older peple are always wiser than yung peple.
D. Trees are as imprtant as peple.
16. Which f the fllwing best describes the purpse f the passage?
A. T explain hw fungi help trees grw.
B. T describe the dangers frests are facing.
C. T tell us abut a scientific discvery and its lessn n wrking tgether.
D. T encurage peple t prtect plants.
