Trees are useful to man in three important ways.
The first important way is that they provide man with food, wood and other prod-ucts. Trees provide not only man with food, but also many animals with food. Without trees many animals could not live on the earth. It's not easy for man to live on the earth without trees, either.
The second important way is that trees give us shade(阴凉). On a hot summer day,people are eager(渴望) to have a rest under a tree after they have a long walk. You can imagine how important the shade of a tree is to man and animals.
The third important way is that trees help to prevent droughts and floods(防止干旱和洪水). However, in many parts of the world, man doesn't realize the third way.They cut trees down in large numbers In the end they find that they have lost the best friends they had.
