CUTTING DOWN TREES

There are some places in Indonesia which are likes desert. But many years ago, trees and plans grew there. Now the ground is hard and dry and nothing grows there. The land is dead. But why did the land die? It died because people cut down all the trees. They wanted the wood and the land. But now there is nothing.

Trees help other plants grow. Trees have roots under the ground and the roots hold the earth. They stop it washing away when the heavy rain comes. Leaves which fall from the trees stop the rain washing away the soft cart on the top of the ground. Trees stop strong wind from blowing small plants away.

In many countries around the world, people are cutting down the forest. Now there are floods, because the water washes quickly down the hills and floods the land. The water destroys farms houses and animals. Some times it kills people too. Today we must save the trees and the forest. Today the Indonesian government is planting many trees to save the land. When a tree is cut down we must plant a new tree in the place. We do not want the land in die.

RAFFLESIA ARNOLDI

The vast archipelago and the great number of islands have made Indonesia the home of large variety of plant life. The Indonesia flora ranges from the tiny orchid to the giant rafflesia plant. No wonder many botanists are curious to study these plants. The rafflesia arnoldi is the biggest flower in the world. It is unusual because of its large size. It has a flower almost a meter in diameter and 1.40 meters in height. "Rafflesia" is derived from the name of the British Governor General, Sir Thomas Stamford Rafflesia, who once governed and built the Botanical Gardens in Bogor. Though it is called Rafflesia after Raffles, the man who discovered the plant was Beccary, an Italian botanist who visited Sumatera in 1928. Rafflesia consist of two parts: the stick-like part which grows in the middle and the petals around and below it. The Rafflesia plant begins two flower in its tenth year. It blooms three or four times a year. Before it begins to flower, the leaves and the steam become dry and look dead, but the main root in the ground is still alive. While the flower is blossoming, it has a very unpleasant smell which attracs insect, especially green flies. They seen eagger to explore the flower. But it flies touch the bottom part of the stick, they will die.

TYPES OF PLANTS

There are two main types of plants, flowering plants and non-flowering plants. Flowering plants have roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruits. Almost all the trees around us are flowering plants. You can probably recognize some plants from their flowers or their fruits.      Non-flowering plants cannot grow flowers. They include the fern, fungi and algae. You cannot see many non-flowering plants around you.      Roots grow down into the soil, often branching again and again. The roots are covered with tiny hars, which take in water and minerals from the soil.      The stem grows upward from the root. Part or all of the stem may be underground. A stem may trail along the ground, climb a post or grow straight up in the air.      Leaves produce food in the form of sugar, for the entire plant. The leaves contain a special green substance that enables them to do this. This substance is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll can produce sugar only in the presence of light. Carbon dioxide, which is a gas in the air, is also needed. So is water from the soil.      Plants grow in almost every part of the world. We see plants such as flowers, grass, and trees nearly everyday. Plants also grow in mountain tops, in the oceans, in many deserts and in polar regions. Some tiny plants that grow on the forest floor can be barely seen. Plants are also the oldest living things.
