Bamboo is one of the nature's most surprising plants.①许多人称这种植物为树，但它是一种草。
Like other kinds of grass，a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground，but it will grow back very quickly.A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1.5 meters in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe.②There__are__more__than__1，000__kinds__of__bamboo__growing__around__the__world__on__both__mountains__and__plains(平原)．
Not all bamboo looks the same.Some bamboo plants are very thin.They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across.This plant also comes in different colors，from yellow to black to green.
Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years.They often use bamboo for building new buildings.As a matter of fact, the cables(绳索) that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo.The bridge has been in use for more than 1，000 years，and is still holding strong.
③In__Africa，engineers__are__teaching__poor__farmers__how__to__use__bamboo__to__find__water.These African countries need cheap ways to find water because they have no money，and their fields often die from no rain and no water.It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use.Bamboo pipes and drills(钻) can help to make the poor thirsty fields watered.
11．请将文中画线句子①译成英语。
Many__people__call__this__plant__a__tree，but__it__is__a__kind__of__grass.
12．请将文中画线句子②译成汉语。
有一千多种竹子生长在世界各地的山地和平原上。
13．请将文中画线句子③改成复合句。

佳作赏析
Ladies and gentlemen，
Welcome to China！I'm glad to be your guide today.We will see lovely pandas soon.Now let me tell you something about pandas.Pandas are white and black.They are very cute and friendly to people.They feed on bamboo.They mainly live in some forests and mountains in Sichuan Province，Gansu Province and Shaanxi Province.Now the number of pandas is less than 3，000，because people cut down many trees and they can't find enough food and don't have enough space to live in.So the Chinese government is thinking about ways to protect them，such as building research bases and teaching people about the importance of saving pandas.Besides these，the government is also planting more bamboo trees so there will be more forests for pandas to live in.

Saving Tigers
Have you seen tigers in zoos？I think the tiger is one of the most popular animals in the zoo.But now the number of them is becoming smaller and smaller.Why
Here are two main reasons.
First of all，people cut down so many trees that the tigers have no places to live in and can't find enough food.Second，people hunt and kill them for their beautiful fur to make clothes or other things.
So what can we do to protect them In my opinion，we must build many natural reserves.And we must stop people from killing them.Remember saving the animals means saving the earth and therefore saving ourselves.Unit 7 What's the highest mountain in the world
