The Amazon rainforest：a natural treasure
Welcome to the jungle，a huge sea of green alive with the sounds of animals．This is the Amazon rainforest．As the largest rainforest in the world，it plays a significant role in maintaining the fine balance of the Earth's ecosystem．
The Amazon rainforest crosses into eight countries，including Brazil and Peru，and one overseas region of France，all on the South American continent．With an area of around 6 million square kilometres，the Amazon rainforest is more than half the size of China．The Amazon River，from which the rainforest gets its name，is close to 6，400 kilometres in length—roughly 100 kilometres longer than the Yangtze River．On its journey from the mountains to the ocean，the river supports many different ecosystems．They give this area the richest biodiversity on the Earth：one in ten known species in the world can be found here．
Of the 390，000 plant species known to us，more than 40，000 can be found in the Amazon．This tall and ancient brazil nut tree produces nuts that we can eat; these water lilies are big enough to lie down on．The forest's different levels support an unbelievable variety of wildlife．At the bottom，there is a system of roots beneath the ground．Above that is the mass of leaf litter on the dark forest floor．The next level is made up of shorter plants with large leaves．Then there are the towering ancient hardwoods，and finally the tops of the tallest trees many metres above the ground．Each level of the forest forms its own little world，home to different kinds of living things．
More than 1，300 species of birds and over 400 species of mammals hide among the jungle's plant life．This jaguar is one example．It has a yellowish-brown coat with black spots．While a significant number of jaguars survive here，they are only one element of this forest's food chain．They feed on at least 87 species，including frogs．These frogs，in turn，feed on insects which eat leaves and fruit．When a jaguar dies，a tiny army of microorganisms helps break down its body and return the nutrients to the earth．
The Amazon rainforest breathes life into the planet by fixing carbon and producing over 20 per cent of all the Earth's oxygen．Thus，it is often known as the“lungs of the planet”．Moreover，the Amazon rainforest is a treasure house of species that can be used for food or medicine．Yet there is one major danger to these irreplaceable plants and animals: us．Over the past 50 years，about 17 per cent of the rainforest has disappeared due to human activities such as agriculture and cattle farming．As the impact of human activities continues to grow and the list of species in danger of extinction becomes longer，we are left with a question: can we afford to damage the“lungs of the planet”？

REACHING OUT ACROSS THE SEA
Trade and curiosity have often formed the foundation of mankind's greatest achievements．To complete the great map of the world was a strong passion for the people of early civilisations．Marco Polo's tales inspired European explorers to search for sea routes from west to east．However，merchants and explorers from the East set sail from east to west many years before Columbus first did．
In ancient times，silk from China found its way overland to India，the Middle East，and Rome，along what became known as the Silk Road．A trading route across the sea was also extended along the coasts of the Indian Ocean，centred around Ceylon (now Sri Lanka)．Here，merchants from China and many other places met to negotiate trade deals，which also led to more awareness of each other's cultures．Over the centuries，further trading allowed more exploration of the regions to the west of China，as recorded in Du Huan's Record of My Travels in the eighth century．
Later，the Ming Dynasty further developed relations with these regions．Between 1405 and 1433，seven large fleets sailed west on voyages of trade and exploration．These fleets were a sight to behold and were in a league of their own at that time．Under the command of Zheng He，they set sail from the South China Sea across the Indian Ocean to the mouth of the Red Sea，and then to the east coast of Africa．African royal families sent gifts such as giraffes as gestures of friendship in return for gold，silk，and spices．Although China withdrew from further expeditions after 1433，these land and sea routes remained active channels between other cultures for centuries．
To reach out across the sea remains a strong desire today．The ancient sea routes travelled by Zheng He are being revisited with the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road，which is part of the Belt and Road Initiative．
The aim of this initiative is to encourage cooperation and trade across the historic Silk Road areas，and strengthen the bonds between China and the rest of the world．Trading has grown greatly in recent years，and will continue to do so in years to come．China has invested billions in systems and services along these routes，which will help to greatly develop the whole area for the benefit of future trade and cultural exchange．
China has also joined its friends across the sea on other important projects．Although the ancient sea routes of Zheng He have been travelled many times，there are still many other places left to explore．In recent years，China has joined other nations on several expeditions to explore the Arctic．From a scientific point of view，there is an urgent need to study the Arctic in order to understand climate change and its effects．
Hundreds of years on，and with the latest technology in hand，the need to trade and the desire to enhance relationships will drive China to reach out across the sea far into the future．
