The Saguaro Cactus: A Desert Giant
The saguaro cactus is an icon of the American Southwest. These impressive plants can grow over 12 meters tall and live for more than 150 years. They develop their first arm when they're about 75 years old, though some never grow arms at all.
Saguaros are perfectly adapted to desert life. Their accordion-like trunks expand to store water during rare rainstorms. A large saguaro can hold up to 800 liters of water—enough to survive several years of drought. Their sharp spines protect them from animals seeking water.
These cacti are important to desert ecosystems. Birds like the Gila woodpecker carve holes in their trunks to build nests. When these birds move out, other animals use the holes for shelter. Saguaro flowers bloom at night and are pollinated by bats and moths. The sweet red fruit provides food for many desert creatures, including deer and coyotes.
Saguaros grow very slowly—only about 2.5 centimeters in their first ten years. This makes them vulnerable to damage. It's illegal to harm a saguaro in Arizona, where most of them grow. Protecting these giants ensures that desert ecosystems remain balanced.
(1)、How tall can saguaro cacti grow?A、Over 12 meters. B、Over 150 meters. C、Over 75 meters. D、Over 800 meters.(2)、How do saguaros survive droughts?A、They move to find water. B、They store water in their trunks. C、They die and regrow later. D、They eat other plants.(3)、What do Gila woodpeckers do with saguaros?A、Eat their fruit. B、Drink their water. C、Carve holes for nests. D、Use their spines for protection.(4)、Why are saguaros vulnerable?A、They grow very quickly. B、They grow very slowly. C、They have no protection. D、They live too long.(5)、What is illegal in Arizona regarding saguaros?A、Growing them. B、Protecting them. C、Harming them. D、Studying them. -

Mangrove Forests: The Ocean's Protectors
Mangrove forests are special ecosystems found along tropical coastlines. These unique trees grow in saltwater, where few other plants can survive. Their roots are exposed at low tide, creating a complex network that looks like a forest underwater.
Mangroves play several important roles. Their roots trap sediment and prevent soil erosion, protecting coastlines from storms and waves. They also provide shelter for many marine creatures, including fish, crabs, and birds. Young fish often grow up in mangrove forests before moving to the open ocean.
These forests are also excellent at absorbing carbon dioxide, helping to fight climate change. They store more carbon than most land forests, making them important for keeping our planet healthy.
Mangroves have been used by humans for centuries. People harvest their wood for building and use their leaves for medicine. However, over-harvesting and coastal development have destroyed many mangrove forests.
Conservation groups are working to protect and restore mangrove ecosystems. They teach local communities about sustainable harvesting and create protected areas. Saving mangroves helps both wildlife and people who depend on these valuable forests.
(1)、Where are mangrove forests found?A、In deserts. B、In freshwater lakes. C、Along tropical coastlines. D、On mountaintops.(2)、What do mangrove roots do?A、They prevent soil erosion. B、They produce a lot of fruit. C、They grow very slowly. D、They harm marine creatures.(3)、Why are mangroves important for climate change?A、They create more carbon dioxide. B、They absorb carbon dioxide. C、They cause storms. D、They melt ice.(4)、How have humans used mangroves?A、For building materials and medicine. B、For food and pets. C、For fuel and electricity. D、For clothing and cars.(5)、What are conservation groups doing to protect mangroves?A、Cutting them down for wood. B、Building cities on them. C、Creating protected areas and teaching sustainability. D、Polluting their habitat. -

The Axolotl: Nature's Healing Expert
The axolotl is a unique salamander that lives only in the lakes around Mexico City. What makes it so special is its amazing ability to regrow body parts. Unlike humans, who form scars when injured, axolotls can regrow entire limbs, spinal cords, and even parts of their brains and hearts.
Scientists are studying axolotls to understand how this regeneration works. They hope to apply this knowledge to help humans recover from injuries and diseases. For example, people who have lost limbs in accidents might one day be able to regrow them, thanks to what we learn from these amazing creatures.
Axolotls are also unusual because they stay in their larval form their whole lives. Most salamanders develop into adults and leave the water, but axolotls remain aquatic and keep their feathery gills. They come in various colors, including pink, white, and black.
Sadly, axolotls are critically endangered. Their natural habitat is shrinking due to pollution and urban development. Conservation efforts are underway to protect these unique creatures, both in the wild and in captivity. Saving the axolotl isn't just important for the species itself—it could also hold the key to future medical breakthroughs.
(1)、What can axolotls regrow?A、Only their tails. B、Entire limbs and body parts. C、Other axolotls. D、Nothing—they heal like humans.(2)、Why are scientists studying axolotls?A、To keep them as pets. B、To learn about regeneration for human medicine. C、To teach them to live on land. D、To make them change colors.(3)、How are axolotls different from most salamanders?A、They live on land. B、They become adults quickly. C、They stay in larval form their whole lives. D、They have no gills.(4)、Why are axolotls endangered?A、They regrow too many parts. B、Their habitat is shrinking. C、They live too long. D、Scientists study them too much.(5)、What might axolotl research lead to?A、New pets for families. B、Ways to regrow human body parts. C、Salamanders that live in cities. D、More pollution in lakes. -
