Trees are an important part of the Earth. They
provide wood for buildings and things for making paper. They provide homes for
all kinds of insects(昆虫),birds and other
animals. For example, many birds live in trees. Many kinds of fruits come from
trees, such as apples, oranges, pears and peaches.
Trees also help keep our air clean and our
ecosystems(生态系统)healthy. We breathe in
oxygen and breathe out harmful gases. However, trees breathe in harmful gases
and breathe out oxygen. And trees can help other plants grow because they can
hold the soil. Trees keep the soil from being blown away, so plants can fight
against strong winds.
Trees do lots for us, our environment and
other plants and animals, but we don't just love trees for that. Trees
can also be very beautiful and we can enjoy the beauty of them.
