TPO57综合口语Task3阅读原文:
Root Communication
All plants need water in order to grow. In desert environments, however, water is especially scarce. One way that some desert plants attempt to secure an adequate water supply is by maintaining a certain distance between themselves and other plants that might try to compete for the same water They maintain this distance through a process known as root communication. That is, the roots of one plant communicate with the roots of another plant in order to control the amount of distance separating them In this way: the communicating plant is able to protect its precious water supply.
TPO57综合口语Task3听力原文:
Now listen to part of a lecture in a botany class.
Professor: Okay, so here's one example of this.
Researchers have been studying a particular plant that lives in the desert. It's called a creosote plant. Now, when you look at creosote plants, you'd notice something unusual about them right away. You see that they're spaced far away from other plants and as it turns out, there is a reason for that.
Like other plants, a creosote plant has a root system underneath the ground that provides the plant with access to the water the plant needs to survive. And the creosote plant has a special way of protecting the space around its roots, more specifically of protecting the water in the space around its roots.
What it does is whenever the roots of other plants start growing too close the roots of the creosote release a chemical and when the roots of the other plants come into contact with this chemical, they stop growing toward the creosote root and start growing in some other direction, away from the creosote plant.
。。。。省略若干字
TPO57综合口语Task3题目:
Using the example of the creosote plant from the lecture, explain how root communication helps desert plants to survive.
