Question

【題目】The world’s forests become smaller and smaller. People are still cutting down the trees. Why is this happening? There are two reasons—land and wood. People need land for animals and crops. And people want wood. Japan, Europe and North American need wood. There, it is used for buildings or it is made into furniture.

But most places from the forests are not good for animals or crops. The soil (土壤) in the forests is very thin. When trees are cut down, the soil is washed away by the rain or the wind. Soon there is nothing but sand. Then more land will be needed and more trees will be cut down.

【解析】本文主要講述世界上森林變得越來越小的原因----主要是人們的砍伐。人們的砍伐森林主要為了獲取土地和木材。人們需要土地飼養(yǎng)動物和種植莊稼。人們需要木材用于建筑物，制成家具。但是大多數(shù)森林的地方不適于動物和莊稼生長。森林的土壤很貧瘠。當(dāng)樹木被砍伐時，雨水或風(fēng)會把土壤沖走或刮走。很快除了沙子什么也沒有。然后需要更多的土地，砍伐更多的樹木。
