A short time before，great trees had covered the countryside for miles around. Now，smoke still rose up from the warm ground over the desolate hills. Winter was coming on and the hills threatened the surrounding villages with destruction，for heavy rain would not only wash away the soil but would cause serious floods as well. When the fire had at last been put out，the forest authorities ordered several tons of a special type of grass-seed which would grow quickly. The seed was sprayed over the ground in huge quantities by aeroplanes. The planes had been planting seed for nearly a month when it began to rain. By then，however，in many places the grass had already taken root. In place of the great trees which had been growing there for centuries patches of green had begun to appear in the blackened soil. 【课文翻译】 消防队员们同那场森林大火搏斗了将近3个星期才最后把火势控制住。就在不久之前，参天大树还覆盖着方圆数英里土地。而当前，发热地面上依然升腾着烟雾，弥漫在荒芜山丘上。冬季即将来临，这些山丘对周边村庄具备毁灭性威胁，由于大雨不但会冲走土壤，并且还会引起严重水灾。在大火最后被扑灭后，森林管理当局订购了好几吨一种生长迅速特殊类型草籽。飞机把这种草籽大量地撒播在地上。飞机撒播近一种月后，开始下起雨来。然而到那时，诸多地方草已经生了根。一片片绿草开始出当前这片烧焦土地上，代替了多少世纪以来始终身长在那里参天大树。 New words and expressions 生词和短语 1. control [k?ntr?ul] n. 控制 2. smoke [sm?uk] n. 烟 3. desolate [des?l?t，des?leit] adj. 荒芜 4. threaten [θret?n] v. 威胁 5. surrounding [s?raundi?] adj. 周边 6. destruction [distr?k??n] n. 破坏，毁灭 7. flood [fl?d] n. 洪水，水灾 8. authority [?:θ?r?ti] n. （惯用复数）当局 9. grass-seed [gra:ssi:d] n. 草籽 10.spray [sprei] v. 喷撒 11.quantity [kw?nt?ti] n. 量 12.root [ru:t，rut] n. 根 13.century [sent?uri] n. 世纪 14.patch [p?t?] n. 小片 15.blacken [bl?k?n] v. 变黑，发暗 【生词解说】 1. control [k?ntr?ul] n. 控制 1）控制，管理 control of sb./sth. control over sb./sth. 控制，支配 children who lack parental control 缺少父母管教孩子 eg.
