烟火，你写得挺好的。Steele 和土人也写得很好。

用语言来表达同样的意思，本来就有很多不同的叙述方式，所以也没有固定的答案。

勇于尝试是最好的。出现了错误也不要怕，因为随着越来越多的使用这种语言，你的错误会越来越少。

大家的英文都好棒！谢谢大家的参与！

"What can you see when observing a tree? trunk, branch and leaves. Can you also see anything else besides them?
Trees are tall plants, which have single wooden neck. The little branches which are in full leaves can outgrow from trunk,  (usually they are green)."

第二句比较难翻译，呜呜

Try and translate the following text into English:

"当你看一棵树时，你只看到它的一半，因为另一半在地下 - 那就是树根。
许多人认为树根是向下生长的，但实际上树的大部分根系是向四周生长的 - 它们能穿过厚厚的土向四周伸展，树多高，根就伸多远。
树根从土地里吸收水和矿物质，向上输送给树干和树枝。"

When you look at a tree, you see only half of it, because the other half is under the ground - the roots.

Many people think the roots of a tree grow downwards, but in fact most of a tree's roots grow outwards - and they can push outwards through the thick earth as far as the tree is high.

The roots take water and minerals from the earth up into the trunk and the branches.

伊连，你昨晚写的，可能好多人，看不到。我先帮你顶起来，下午我再试着翻一下，

...烟火...

practice again！I am not afraid to make mistakes~

When you look at a tree,you just see a half.The other half in the ground--called root.
Many people think that roots grow downward,but actually most of roots grow in all direction after they through the heavy earth.How tall the tree and how far the roots extend.
Roots transport  water and minerals  to trunks and branches upwards ,which  absorbed   from the soil.

烟火写得非常好！
其中的两个动词extend和transport用的非常好，非常准确，虽然跟原文不同。原文因为是写给小孩子看的，所以用词都很简单。

写英文刚开始会比较难，主要是思维转换的问题。随着练习的增多，会越来越容易。

其实，英文的学习在我们只掌握有限的单词的时候，就应该加进写作的训练。如果我们记住了上万的单词，但却不会正确地使用它们，那也是没有意义的。

I am not afraid to make mistakes, either.
When you look at a tree, you just see the half of it, because the another one that is called root is under the ground.
Many people think  roots grow downward, but in fact most of the roots  grow all around  . They can spread through the thick soil. The range of the root is as same as the higth of the trunk.
The water and minerals  are absorbed by the roots from the soil and transported to the trunk and brances.

When you look at a tree, you just see half of it, since the other half grows under ground, that is, the root.

Many of the peoples believe that the roots grow down, although most of them grow all around. They can spread around through thick earth as far as the tree grows up.

The roots absorb water and mineral matters from earth, and transport them up to the trunk and branches.
