Rainforest Layers

This is part of a script for a television programme about rainforests . This part is about the different layers there are and what lives there.

At the very top of the rainforest there are only a few trees. These trees have grown taller than most. They can be between 40 and 60 metres tall. They have been growing since long before we were born. Eagles, bats and even monkeys live here.

Below this is a large layer of leaves-the tops of many, many trees. From the above, it looks like a floor. These trees are between 30 and 45 metres tall. More wildlife lives here than anywhere else in the rainforest. This is home to many birds, butterflies, tree frogs and snakes. A quarter of all insects live here. There are also large animals here. Leopards and jaguars can come up to this layer from the lower layer to hunt for food.

Close to the ground, many smaller trees and bushes grow. They grow quickly, trying to grow towards the light—and die quickly. Most insects live in this layer.

The forest floor has lots of decay. It is so dark here that very little can grow. Dead leaves and animals fall to the ground and decay. The only thing that grows here is fungi. It feeds on the decaying leaves and helps to break them down quickly. The rainforest floor is home to larger animals such as elephants, leopards, and bears.

As the sultan’s next birthday approached, everyone in the kingdom started getting scared（吓坏的）. On the morning of his birthday, they stayed in bed with their heads under their blankets-- too scared to get up and face the day.

Luckily most people had nothing to worry about.

But two of the sultan’s subjects（国民）, Ali and Baboo, had a lot to worry about- for they were told to go before the sultan.

“My challenge for you two,” roared the sultan to the shaking duo (两人),” is a camel race.” The sultan stopped talking for a moment, to let what he had said sink in.

That doesn’t sound too bad, they both thought, although they didn’t say so, lest（以免）the sultan make the challenge harder.

The sultan knew that Ali and Baboo would like what they had heard. But he wasn’t getting soft in his old age.

There was something he hadn’t told them.

Just as Ali and Baboo started to feel good, the sultan started talking again. “The winner of the race is the person whose camel comes last!” he told them, with a huge grin on his face. “The loser will get five years in prison and a tattoo of his chest to remind him of his failure.”
