10、 do communicate with each other. It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant gets attacked by insects. The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help：“Im being atta
11、cked！”When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps (黄蜂； 蜜蜂)! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants. Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system, so tha
12、t we can use it to grow more crops. More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People cant hear these sounds; but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Corn and chili plants do this. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water. Most surpri
13、singly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”.

14、Internet we use. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. However, it may lead to bad effects. Plants may use it to steal food from each other, or spread chemicals to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to
15、help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web. Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other.

Recently, many Chinese young people have turned to trees to help with their stress. Although it sounds strange, theres a science behind the act of tree
45、hugging. It can be explained by the “biophilia hypothesis (亲生命假说)”. It was pointed out by the US scientist Edward Wilson in 1984. According to him, humans are born to love being around other living things. Humans love for nature is “in our DNA”. This idea helps to explain why people prefer natural,
46、green views to city views. Its also one of the reasons why people love cute pets. Some studies have looked into why treehugging can help with our health. A study reported that the activity could increase oxytocin (催产素). Its a hormone (荷尔蒙) responsible for feelings. The higher the level of oxytocin i
47、s, the happier you may be. Hugging trees for only 21 seconds can lead to an increase in oxytocin. Another hormone called cortisol (皮质醇) is a marker of stress. The brain produces more cortisol when the person is anxious, angry or very sad. Hugging trees, helps cut cortisol production, which makes us
48、feel better. Although the activity is helpful to us, its important to keep in mind that we shouldnt hurt nature while doing it. Trees often hold valuable ecosystems (生态系统). The tree is home to many small living things that are too small to be seen. You should be kind when hugging trees, just like how you hug a friend!41. How do Chinese young people
