     All of us know trees are useful to man in three very important ways:they give us wood and other
products,they give us shade,and the most important of all,they help to prevent droughts and floods.
     In many parts of the world,however,people have not realized the importance of trees to us.
     Two thousand years ago,a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build its warships,with
which it gained itself an empire (帝国).It gained the empire,but without its trees,its soil became hard
and poor.When the empire fell into pieces,the home country found itself faced by floods and hunger.
     Even when a government realizes the importance of forests,it is difficult for it to make villagers see
this.The villagers want wood to cook their food,and they can earn money by making things or selling
wood to the town people.They are usually too lazy or too careless to plant and look after new trees.So
unless the government does something to control,and also to educate the people,the forests will slowly
disappear.
