Good examples where soil is naturally found with no plants growing in are beneath freshly removed trees, or where the ground has been
11、 burnt by a land fire. In these situations bare soil isnt bare for long; within days seedlings(芽) begin to appear and cover the ground. In a few months time, the scar is hardly noticeable. Unlike these natural examples, ploughed(耕犁) fields and freshly dug gardens are obvious examples created by man.
12、 But, left to nature, even these bare soils soon turn green with a large number of tiny seedlings. In fields, gardens and on grasslands, roadside and sports fields, along streets and on paths and pavements, we are constantly battling to stop weeds from growing. All we are doing is stop the recoverin
13、g powers of nature. Whenever soil is exposed, weeds act like a kind of medicine to reduce the potentially harmful rays of the sun, so the sooner plant growth covers the soil over again, the better. Weeds also help to improve the fertility(肥沃) of the soil. Their roots get the soil together, improving
14、 its structure and creating a more stable environment in which soil life can grow fast. Those weeds with a deep root draw up plant nutrients from deeper in the ground, making them available to plants growing near the soil surface. Above ground, the stems(茎)of weeds help trap 3fallen leaves which bre

Bushes move in to take the place by gradually shading them out, followed in turn by trees, which eventually push up through the bushes, fin
16、ally shading them out too. Fallen leaves from the bushes and trees carry on the job of building soil fertility that was begun by those very first weeds that grew on the bare soil. Then, when one of these mature trees is removed in a storm，leaving a wound of bare soil in the earth, the whole process starts again. 【解题导语】 人们到处阻止杂草等植物的生长，然而，它们却有助于增加土壤的肥 沃度。所以，土壤和植物之间是相互促进的关系。 4When wi
