Cactuses
仙人掌

Cactuses are used to living in desert. The whole body of a cactus is green. The stalk is oval and there are thorns all over its body. Actually the thorns in their bodies are their leaves. The leaves are like this only because they can stop the water in their bodies from evaporating into the hot and dry air. The cactuses have long roots and they take their roots deep into the earth so that they can get the water from deeper soil.
仙人掌生長在沙漠之中。一顆仙人掌的全身上下都是綠色的。莖呈橢圓狀，全身上下布滿了刺。它們身上的這些刺事實上是它們的葉子。葉子長成這樣的唯一原因是為了防止身體中的水分蒸發(fā)到又干又熱的空氣中去。仙人掌的根很長，它們的根深深地插入土壤之中，以便從更深的土壤中獲取水分

Their flowers are always small and white.Although they are ignored in the desert, they never give up coming out and always decorate the desert silently.
它們的花總是小而潔白。盡管生長在沙漠之中無人理睬，但是它們從來沒有放棄開放，靜靜地點綴著沙漠，為其增加美麗。
