Ecology is a complicated thing. Given the facts that elephant damage often kills trees and

bush fires often kill trees, it would be (41)______ to assume that a combination of the two would

make things worse. Contrary to this assumption, (42)______, as the recently-published research

by Benjamin Wigley shows, if a tree has already been damaged, fire can (43)______ help to make

things better.

One common way in which elephants harm trees is by stripping (剥) them of their bark（树皮). Dr Wigley, who did indeed start from the obvious (44)______, set off to find out how much

worse bush fires would make the effects of this bark stripping. To serve this purpose, he set up a

study in the Kruger National Park. Since 1954, the Kruger has been the site of experiments in

which plots of land have been burned (45)______, to understand the effects of fire on plain

ecology. In these experiments, Dr Wigley looked at trees in three different zones, in one of which,

the trees were burned every year; in the second, they were burned every other year, while the third

zone, by contrast, was actively (46)______ fire. To keep things consistent, he looked at the fate of

the same tree species, the marula (马鲁拉树), in all three zones. He picked marulas because they

are particular (47)______ of elephant activity. Their fruit are delicious, and prized by elephants

and people alike. But elephants also seem to enjoy eating their bark. In July 2016 he and his

colleagues identified 20 marulas in every zone and used special tools to (48)______ from each of

them a circular section of bark 5 cm in diameter. Having imposed this damage, they (49)______

the wounds over the course of the following two years, to see what would happen. To their

(50)______, they discovered that the wounds of trees in fire zones recovered far better than those

of trees that had seen no fires at all. Wounded trees in the annual burn zone re-grew 98% of their

lost (51)______ during the two years of the study. Those living in the biennial (两年一次的) burn

zone re-grew 92% of it. But those in the zone where fires were (52)______ re-grew only 72%.

The researchers also found something else when they were measuring the trees’ wounds: ants.

Ten of the 20 trees in the fire-prevention zone developed ant colonies in their wounds. The ants in

question were a species that is known to damage trees and is supposed to (53)______ tissue

healing. By contrast, only five trees in the biennial burn zone and three in the annual zone

developed ants’ nests in their wounds. It looks, therefore, as if bush fires are treating trees’ wounds

by killing ants that might (54)______ colonize and damage them. Though such fires are surely

harmful to healthy trees, it seems, in an example of two negatives making a positive, as if they are

actually (55)______ to sick ones.

41. A. difficult B. reasonable C. necessary D. awful

42. A. however B. therefore C. furthermore D. somehow

43. A. uniquely B. barely C. actually D. merely

44. A. phenomenon B. evidence C. imagination D. assumption

45. A. equally B. regularly C. severely D. purposelessly

46. A. burnt with B. protected from C. covered by D. exposed to

47. A. participants B. partners C. victims D. friends

48. A. mark B. remove C. hit D. measure

49. A. regulated B. checked C. healed D. monitored

50. A. disappointment B. surprise C. joy D. relief

51. A. vitality B. height C. bark D. strength

52. A. controlled B. prevented C. started D. boosted

53. A. disturb B. promote C. impact D. quicken
