次の文章は,森林と地球の環境について健一が書いたものです。 この文章を読んで,あとの(1)〜(4)の問いに答えなさい。

  There are many people here in Japan and a lot of trees are used in our lives every day. (    ),  we need trees to build houses and to make furniture.  We need trees to make paper for books, comics and newspapers,
 too.
   Where do we get the trees that are used in our lives?
We get some trees in Japan, and some trees from foreign countries.  In 1999, the percentage of the trees that we got in Japan was about 19%.  We got about 19% of the trees from America, about 15% from Canada, about 8% from Australia, and about 39% from other foreign countries.
In those countries, trees were cut down and sold to Japan.  A lot of trees are cut down in many places, but growing trees is not (     ) because it takes a long time for us to grow trees.  
   Cutting down too many trees causes some problems.  What is happening on the earth by cutting too many trees?  Can you  think (    ) anything?  By cutting down trees, we are taking away animals' places to live.  Some animals will die without their homes.  The earth is becoming warmer by cutting down too many trees, too.  There may be other problems.  We should know what is happening on the earth.
   The earth is like our home.  We must understand that the earth needs help.  What can we do for the earth?  We can recycle paper.  We can grow trees, too.  We all live on the earth.  We must do nice things for the earth.
