Para. 1
Talking plants have long been a thing of myths and legends. Many cultures have stories of talking trees that give advice as well as warnings to people. Alexander the Great and Marco Polo were said to have visited such a tree in India. And in some modern stories, such as the film Avatar, trees can communicate with animals and people.

Talking trees give _____________________ to people, eg., Alexander the Great and Marco Polo were said to have visited such a tree in India.

With us long believing that talking plants are fantasy, new research has revealed something amazing: it appears that plants can communicate after all.

What is the relation between this sentence and the rest of Para. 2
Para 2 is used to clearly illustrate the thesis statement.
It’s also a transitional paragraph.
An adversative relation (转折关系).
(For long we have believed that talking plants are just fantasy, however, plants do communicate as revealed by research, which is amazing.)

Para. 4
More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds, but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Corn and chilli plants do this. They also “listen” to the noises from other plants. A chilli plant can tell if a neighbouring plant is helpful, or unfriendly. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water, indicating drought is arriving.

2. What does “wood wide web” mean
Share your thinking on the following questions
Personification. It can make descriptions more vivid.
“Wood wide web” means an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest. It is linked underground by fungi and this fungal network links the roots of different plants to each other. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other.
Learning to learn
Personification means giving human characteristics to something that is not human. By using human characteristics to describe an object, animal or even a place, personification can make descriptions more vivid.
People can have a better understanding of plants and explore more about the mysterious plants.
People can make better use of plants for the benefit
of mankind.
1. What are the benefits of studying plant communication？
People can better protect nature and live in harmony with nature.
2. What discoveries are described in the two reading passages in this unit What do their meanings have in common
Passage 1 reveals the secret of evolution.
Passage 2 reveals the secret of communication between plants.
They all reflect that there are numerous secrets in nature that
are waiting to be explored.
Scientists are learning the secret ways in which plants “talk” to each other. It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals 1______________ (communicate) with each other. When 2________ (attack) by insects, the plant releases chemicals from the leaves that 3______________ (eat). This is like 4___ warning.
