    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.

When all the　　 top soil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desert.
