Most plants will die if they don’thave enough water. But one plant,called the resurrection ( 复活) plant,seems to come back to life after it dies. This plant can still be there after a long time of terrible drought because it travels to look for water.
Many people say that one difference between plants and animals is that animals move from place to place to find food and water,while plants cannot. But in the desert areas of American West,the resurrection plant can move around to get what it needs,too.
When there is lots of rain,the resurrection plant grows like any other plant. It sends roots (叶子) down into the ground and has green leaves (叶子) . But when there is little water,the resurrection plant pulls ( 拉) its roots back up and dries up. It turns into a brown ball of seemingly dead roots and leaves. This brown ball goes through the desert with the help of the wind.
As soon as it touches water,the resurrection plant begins to act like a normal plant again. Its leaves turn green once more as it starts to grow. It is resurrected or brought back to life again in a new place. Because this plant can live a long time with no water,it has become a popular house plant. For anyone who always forgets to water his or her plants,the resurrection plant can be a fantastic gift.
