Rainforests cover（覆盖） 6% of the Earth’s surface（表面）. There are rainforests in many parts of the world, but the biggest forests are in South America, Africa and South East Asia. There aren’t any rainforests in Europe or North America.
About 75% of all the kinds of animals that we know come from rainforests. Thousands and thousands of animals live in rainforests. There are many beautiful birds, insects(昆虫) and reptiles(爬行动物). Many of them live in the trees, more than 30 metres from the ground. There are also thousands of different plants—and lots of them are tall trees! It is always hot in a rainforest and the ground is always wet. It is also dark there.
The rainforests are very important for us. Without rainforests , we can’t live ! The trees and other plants in the forest help to make the air that we breathe(呼吸). They also help to change the weather .They give us wood, rubber, fruits and many of our medicines.
Sadly(遗憾的), in many places, the rainforests are in danger. For example(例如), many years ago there was a large rainforest in Java. There were thousands of different plants and animals in the forest, but now there is nothing. People cut down the trees to grow rice. They also wanted to grow rubber trees to make rubber. Many animals lived in the rainforest. Some of them went to other parts of Java but many of them disappeared(消失) - forever. The same thing is happening now in many other parts of the world.
The good news is that there are a lot of people who want to help save（挽救） rainforests. The bad news is that it is not going to be easy. It will need many people to work together . Here is something we can do to help:
▲Teach others about the importance(重要性）of the rainforests and how they can help save rainforests.
▲Plant more trees on land .
▲Ask people to live in a way that is good to rainforests.
▲Build parks to protect(保护) animals and plants.
