Each plant can produce about four to seven kilograms of fruit. Fruited plants take about eighty days to grow from seed(种子). Cold weather can damage young plants, s
13、o they are often grown inside for four to six weeks. A tomato plant can grow several thick stems(茎) from its base. Only two or three stems should be kept. From the stems come smaller growths called suckers(吸枝). And the new suckers that grow between the stems are harmful to the plant. There are two g
14、eneral groups of plants. Small tomato plants grow to about one meter. They can be planted rather close together. Large tomato plants can grow to two metres in height.

From morning till evening, the tanner turned hide(兽皮) into leather by treating it with
19、 tannin. Seth was put off by the unpleasant smell of the tannery. So, he visited the tanners house and offered to buy his house. “I would love to sell the house if youd like to buy it, Seth”, said the tanner. “Give me a week or so to deal with some things, will you?” Seth agreed and went away. A wee
20、k later, the unbearable smell coming from the tannery brought Seth to the tanners doorstep again. “I understand, Sir,” said the tanner. “But my mother is visiting me this week. I cant sell the house as long as she is around. Please wait for a month until she goes away.” Seth agreed. He began to wait
21、. In the beginning he counted each day, impatiently waiting for one to finish and the other to begin. After a few days, he found he was no longer so interested in the month coming to an end. And when the month did come to an end, Seth did not go to the tanners house to ask him to leave. He had simpl
22、y forgotten about it. He didnt ask the tanner to leave when they met next, either. You see, by then Seth had become used to the tan-yards smell. “What have you done to drive that smell away?” he asked the tanner. The tanner smiled and nodded.

Chinese smokers now become addicted to nicotine(尼古丁) at the age of 19, five years earlier than the average starting age of 2
26、4 in 1997. Of the 1.1 billion smokers all over the world, more than 800 million are in developing countries. And as the worlds largest developing country, China also has the largest number of smokers. Some frightening facts start to appear when we examine who Chinas smokers are. Of the 380 million s
27、mokers, more than 100 million are under the age of 18, while more than 50 percent of male teachers and doctors are smokers. Such a high rate of smokers among men teachers and doctors will certainly have a bad effect on the young generation. Teachers are usually expected to be role models for student
28、s who tend to consider whatever they do is right and follow their example. It is very likely that the number of teenage smokers will increase in the near future unless measures are taken to stop teachers from smoking in front of their students or designate schools as non-smoking zones(区域). What is t
29、ruly puzzling is why so many doctors smoke. They are aware of the results of the habit, such as high blood pressure and lung cancer. Their example only helps to make smoking of so many others seem normal. If educated people set an example by stopping at least in public places, it would be much easie
30、r to tell people that it is uncivilized(不文明的) to smoke in public places. In China, there should also be a national law to stop smoking in public places. These would make a great contribution to cutting the number of people in China who are smoking themselves into an early grave(坟墓).45. In the writer
