①Trees are one of the oldest plants on earth. They keep the air clean, make less noise pollution, make water cleaner and provide(提供) food and building materials.
②Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At one to three years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns(刺) to stop animals from going near.
③At four years old, trees begin to grow very quickly and become strong enough to face many difficulties later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit(开花结果).
④When the tree is 20 to 25 years old, it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. Not only does the adult tree give us shade(树荫), oxygen and natural beauty, it is also a great place for a tree house, or a place for us to read a book, listen to music and so on. If the adult tree can have good care, it will go on living healthily for many years.
⑤Little by little, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow or part of it becomes dead, it becomes a home of small animals and is a source of food for many other animals.
⑥In many ways, the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience. When looking at the life of a tree, we learn that each period(时期) of life brings its own kind of happiness and difficulties. Enjoy every minute of it and take care of the trees!
