？ Don't look at the sky. Don't look for old weather reports. Looking at the tree rings is more important. Some weather reports go back only one century，but some trees can show us an exact

record of the weather even further back.

It's clear that a tree would grow best in a climate with lots of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight or rainfall would limit the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable (有利的) to an unfavorable climate can be reading the tree rings in tree trunk. To find out the weather of ten years ago，count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings，then we are sure that lots of sunny and rainy weather happened. If the rings are close together，then the climate was bad for the tree.

Studying tree rings is important not only for the history of the weather，but also for the history of man. In a place of New Mexico you can find only sand-no trees and no people. However，many centuries ago a lot of people lived there. They left suddenly. Why？

A scientist studied the dead tree rings which had grown there. He decided that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees. Trees were used to make fires and buildings. So, after the people cut down the trees，they had to move.

Well，is that true？ Animals eat grass and grow fat.Then we eat their meat.Little fish eat little sea-plants; then bigger fish swim along and eat the...Chickens eat bits of grass and give us...Think for a minute.What food does not come from plants in some way？

Scientists can do wonderful things with plants.They can make food just like meat and cheese.And they can make it without the help of animals.It is very good food too.Now they have begun to say，"We make our paper from wood.We can also make food from wood.The next thing is not very difficult." What is the next thing？ Perhaps it is-food from paper.Scientists say，"We can turn paper into food.It will be good，cheap food too; cheaper than meat or fish or eggs."

Last year, I went WWOOFing (Willing Workers on Organic Farms) at a beautiful organic farm in La Réunion. With WWOOFing, volunteers exchange their time and work for food and accommodation. I slept in a cabin in the woods with hedgehogs(刺猬) digging about in the bushes, all different coloured birds singing in the morning and endless rows of palm trees offering shade from the sun.

For me, one of the best ways to get to know a new place is to work with the land, live with the locals and share meals together. This is why I absolutely love WWOOFing. It has got to be one of the best ways to travel. It is a mutually beneficial exchange where everyone involved prioritises people and environment above profit. You get the time and space to deepen a connection with local communities and nature.

There is a lot to learn and each farm has its own unique way of doing things, depending on the environment, climate and soil. At the farm in La Réunion we planted palm trees to harvest the core of the trunk which can be eaten in salads. Before staying with the farm I had only eaten heart of palm from cans which were nothing in comparison to the real thing, fresh from the ground. When potting up the very beginnings of the palm trees, I felt grateful to be a part of the start of the trees&39; cycle. I was filled with awe that something so small could grow into something so big and strong.

We also did lots of weeding, which helped me to get to know all kinds of different plants, to be able to identify which ones we could use as herbs/medicine/in salads and which were seen as uneatable. I also got to harvest pineapples and guava fruit(番石榴) to make jams which will be sold at the local market.

Of course, not everyone is able to travel far away into the field. The great thing about the skill-share philosophy behind WWOOFing is that it’s something we can all do from our own backyard. The focus shifts from money to how we can best support each other in our communities.

A fair exchange can make a big difference in the world.

he landcalled Parson's Place by the football grounD．Few people know about this newplan to increase the size of our town. For me, Parson's Place is specialbecause it is a beautiful natural area where local people can relax -the smallwood has many unusual trees and the stream is popular with fishermen andbird-watchers. It's very quiet because there are few houses or roads nearby. I think that losing thisarea will be terrible because we have no other similar facilities in theneighbourhood. I am also against this plan because it will cause trafficproblems. How will the people from the new houses travel to work？ The motorwayand the railway station are on the other side of town. Therefore, these peoplewill have to drive through the town centre every time they go anywhere. The roads will always be full of traffic,there will be nowhere topark and the tourists who come to see our lovely old buildings will leave.Shops and hotels will lose business. If the town really needs more homes, theempty ground beside the railway station is a more suitable place. No doubt the builders will make a lot of money by selling thesehouses. But,in my opinion,the average person will quickly be made poorer bythis plan. As well as this,we will lose a very special place and our town willbe much less pleasant. I am going to the local government offices on Monday morning toprotest about this plan and I hope that your readers will join me there. Wemust make them stop this plan before it is too late. {TS}Why has Alan written this letter'？

A. To perersuade the government to build new houses.

B. To protest about a new motorway near the town.

C. To encourage more people in the town to use Parson's Place.

D. To inform. other people about the builders' plans.
