贵州省2024年初中英语学业水平考试中考模拟卷(一)
Have you ever entered a tropical rainforest(热带雨林)? Rain forests make up only a small part of the Earth's surface, about six percent, but there are more kinds of trees than any other area in the whole world.
Tropical rainforests are in Africa, Asia, central and south America , Australia and on the Pacific Islands. The largest tropical rainforest is the Amazon Rain Forest in South America , which covers almost seven million square kilometers. The second largest rainforest is in Western Africa.
Rainforests provide us with many things. In fact , the Amazon Rain Forest is "the lungs of our planet" because it produces 20% of the world's oxygen(氧气). One fifth of the world's fresh water is also found in the Amazon Rain Forest. 80% of the food we eat first grew in the rainforest. 25% of the drugs (药) we take when we are sick are made of plants that grow only in the rainforest. Some of these drugs are even used to fight illnesses.
There are four different levels of trees in a rainforest. The forest floor is the lowest layer(层) full of animal life and receives the least amount of light. The under layer is the dark , cool environment under the leaves but over the ground. The canopy(树冠) layer is the upper parts of most of the trees. The emergent(突出的) layer contains a small number of very tall trees.
These different parts of a rainforest are together to create an ecosystem for many animals, plants and human beings.
