After class Activities
Nowadays,after class activities are becoming more and more popular in high schools.In our school,there are various kinds of activities,for example,arts and sports.We enjoy them very much.Playing football and reading stories are my favorites which do me lots of good.Besides building up my body and enriching my knowledge,they also free me from the heavy work of study.
Here I have some suggestions.1To students,you’d better choose the activities which interest you and suit you;to schools,they should organize more activities for students and leave students more time for activities by giving them less homework.
Dear friends,please actively take part in after class activities,2which will not only make your school life colorful,but also improve your learning. (2011·四川卷)

Plants that live in the rainforest have adapted in amazing ways to several very difficult conditions.This means that the plant has changed something in its “body” or “habits” to make it easier to survive in difficult conditions.There are several conditions they have had to adapt to.First,the soil of the forest floor is shallow.Also,the soil of the rainforest is not very rich,or easy to grow in.Next is the problem of very heavy rain which continues over a large part of the year.Finally,many plants of the rainforest are food for animals that live there.
The biggest problem that rainforest plants have to adapt to is the lack of sunlight in the rainforest’s lower levels.Plants have adapted to this problem in several ways.Many plants have very large leaves.The large leaf is helpful because it has a bigger surface area.The bigger surface area a leaf has,the more sunlight it can absorb.The canopy trees adapt by growing to be 100 feet tall so that their leaves can grab all available sunlight.Other plants called lianas (climbing woody vines) have adapted by rooting themselves in the soil of the forest floor and growing up the trees until they reach the canopy layer.Still other plants,such as epiphytes,have adapted by growing directly on the trees’ trunks and branches in the canopy and understory layers of the rainforest.
An adaptation to the large amounts of rainfall that many rainforest plants have is called “drip tips”.Their leaves are tapered (逐渐变细) to a sharp point at the end.This allows water to run off the leaf quickly.There are many other adaptations that rainforest plants have made to their environment.These will be discussed in detail,as we investigate the plants of the rainforest!
