Ⅲ. 阅读下列材料,从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中,选出最佳选项。
Bamboo is one of nature's most surprising plants. Many people call this plant a tree, but it is a kind of grass.
Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. Bamboo grows in many parts of the world. There are more than 1,500 kinds of bamboo.
Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimetres wide, while others may grow to more than 30 centimetres across. This plant also comes in different colours, from yellow to green to black.
People use bamboo to make many things such as hats and kitchen tools. People also use bamboo to build buildings because it is strong.
Many Asian countries have used bamboo for thousands of years. They often use bamboo for buildings. In Africa, engineers are teaching farmers how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap ways to find water. They have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and no water. Bamboo pipes and drills(钻) can help farmers bring water to their thirsty fields.

Our Silent Friends
From the deepest forests to our towns and cities, trees are all around us. We share our world with trees. They are our silent friends, but we often overlook（忽视） them.
In fact, trees are very important for all living things on earth. To begin with, forests are a safe place for animals, insects and plants to live. Trees are also good for us humans. They take in greenhouse gases like $\ce{CO_2}$ and produce oxygen. This means they help create a clean environment for everyone on this planet.
Trees make our lives more convenient. Many of the things around us, such as paper and pencils, come from trees. Just look around your room—a lot of the furniture is made of wood. Trees also provide us with delicious fruit and wonderful drinks. For example, we can make tea from the leaves of the tea tree.
Trees do so much for us. We can't imagine a world without them. However, humans are not treating trees in a kind way. We are cutting down forests all around the world. We are polluting the water and the air, and this harms trees. All these things are a big problem. We need to do more to protect trees and save our planet.
任务一:根据短文内容,完成表格(每空不超过3个单词)。
