Why does some land have so many plants growing on it, while other land has almost no plants growing on at all?To grow, plants need some things. One is warmth. In very cold places, almost nothing grows, Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the Earth, only a few unusual plants can grow.

The town is on hard land. The plants here can only grow in the soil（土壤）between the cracks of the stones.Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food.What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy（有沙的）beach? A few plants, such as beach grass, will grow in sand, but most plants won't. Even if（即使）the weather is warm enough and we water the plants each day, many of them will die because the sand on this beach has almost no food for plants.( )6.

This makes it so unusual.About 2200 years ago, there were thousands of dolphins in the Changjiang River, but today, not many people can see the dolphins. Their population（人口）has gone from 150. Scientists say that the dolphin population has gone down because the population of people on the Chnagjiang River has gone up. They also say that the new dam (大坝) on the river is also making the dolphin die because it doesn’t have food to eat.Scientists have tried different things to save this “panda in the water,” but nothing has helped.
