阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从1~25各题所给的四个选项中,选出一个佳答案.

 Trees are useful to  1  in three very important  2  : They provide him with wood and other  3  ; they give him shade; they help to prevent drought and  4  .Unfortunately, in many  5  of the world, man has not realized that the third of these services is  6  important.

 Two thousand years  7  a rich and powerful country cut down its trees  8  warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but,  9  its trees, its soil became hard and  10  . When the empire fell  11  , the home country found itself faced by floods and starvation.

 Even where a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult for  12  to persuade the villager to see this. The villager wants wood to cook his food  13  ; and he can earn money  14  making charcoal or selling wood to the townsman. He is usually too lazy or too careless to plant and look  15  new trees. So, unless the government has a good system of control, or can  16  the people, the forests will slowly disappear.

 This does not only  17  that the villagers' sons and grandsons have  18  trees.The results are even more  19  : for where  20  are trees, their roots break the soil upallowing the rain to sink inand also bind (结合)the soil, thus preventing its  21  washed away easily, but where there are no  22  , the rain falls  23  hard ground and carrying  24  with it the rich top soil, in which crops  25  so well. When all the top soil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desert.
