gets its food.For example，a simple African food chain might consist of three parts：(1)trees and bushes；(2)giraffes; and(3)lions.Each link in a food chain is food for the next link.Food chains always start with plants and end with animals.Plants are at the bottom of the food chain.Scientists call them producers，because they use light energy from the sun to produce food from carbon dioxide and water through photosynthesis (光合作用)Animals，unlike plants，cant produce their own food.Instead，they must eat plants or other animals.This is why scientists call them consumers.Consumer animals fall into three categories.Herbivores eat only plants.Carnivores eat only other animals.Omnivores eat both plants and animals.In addition to producers and consumers，there are also deposers.These organisms，such as bacteria and fungi，feed on decaying matter.They help the food chain by speeding up the decaying process that releases minerals back into the soil to be absorbed by plants as nutrients.Most food chains have only four or five links in them.As you go up a food chain，the amount of energy at each level diminishes，because some of the energy is lost in the form of waste or is used up by the organism at that level.That is why it takes many plants，for example，to feed a few giraffes who in turn feed one lion.Most animals are part of many different food chains，because they must eat more than one type of food to satisfy their energy needs.All of these interconnected food chains form a more plex structure called a food web.Humans，for example，are at the center of a very plex food web，because we tend to eat many different types of plants and animals.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章以食物链为话题，分析说明了自然界中动植物相互依存的关系，并提出了食物链中的主体食草动物、食肉动物和草肉皆食动物。1Which of the following tells us the African food

made nicely for visitors.The waterfalls were breathtaking with capturing views.Climbing up rocks was one of my favorite parts.Even though I fell a couple of times，I still had a lot of fun.The fact

structure of each mountain is incredible，its formed in ways that literally take your breath away.Some of them are a deep dark color with waterfalls forming，some are formed with spots of green peeking out.Its definitely something you wouldnt want to miss.The park also has 67 mammalian species with a variety of different types of animals that roam around you.Yosemite isnt the only great National
