Such seems to be the case, however, as methods for growing coffee plants have gradually changed over time.Coffee plants were first discovered growing inAfricahundreds of years ago. The plants grew under a wide cover of forests, which protected

17、the coffee plants leaves from the burning sun. As coffee was introduced to other countries, farmers would naturally try to grow the plants in the shade of tall trees. These trees provided more than shade for coffee plants; they were also home for many species of birds, insects, and other plants.Over

18、 the past 30 to 40 years, people developed a new kind of coffee plant, one which grows well in open sunlight. Sun-grown coffee produced two times more coffee than shade-grown coffee in the same amount of time and space. As a result, the growing need for coffee makes the sun-grown method appear to be

19、 the best way to grow coffee.However, this newer method has some unexpected results. First, the lack of tree cover leaves the land open to heavy rainfall, which can wash away the soils nutrients (营养物质). This necessitates an increased use of fertilizers and additives, which is likely to create health

20、 risks. Second, as forests are taken down to make way for sun-grown coffee plants, native and migratory birds no longer have a home.

24、ction between _.A. coffee and forestsB. coffee production and the environment C. coffee farmers and animalsD. coffee and sunlightDAsking for help is a sign of strength rather than weakness. In American culture, the independent individual is seen as their ideal. As the University of Missouri at St. L

25、ouis states on its website under the heading Key American Values, “Americans have been trained since very early in their lives to consider themselves as separate individuals who are responsible for their own situations in life and their own destinies.” The value also makes them think they can do eve

26、rything themselves, and makes them feel badly about asking for help when they need it.And when it comes to work situations, when they think about asking for help there, sometimes they fear that a request for help would make them look inept. While this has always been true for men, many women in the

27、workplace have felt the need to try twice as hard as their male colleagues and do twice as much to get just as far and to prove their worth.

28、ou really are.”But the fact is, even though individualism is on the rise, we cant do everything by ourselves and we shouldnt try.Apple founder Steve Jobs once told the Santa Clara Valley Historical Association about the power of asking for help, and how he “never found anybody who didnt want to help
