29、ld !The horses name was Clever Hans, the Educated Horse, and was featured in a vaudeville(杂耍 ) act in the early 1900s, in Europe. When asked a complicated mathematical question by his owner, Clever Hans would tap out the correct answer with his hooves. For example, if the answer was sixty- eight, Ha

30、ns would tap out six with his left hoof and eight with his right hoof. Even mere remarkable, the owner would leave the room after asking the question, so there could be no secret signal between owner and horse.

There- fore, they are always looking for methods to make trees grow faster. So far, the secret to fast growing

36、 trees seems to lie in “super-seeds.“ These are seeds that are gathered from the quickest growing trees in a forest. One company searched 100,000 acres of trees and selected the seeds from just fifteen trees. These two ounces of seed were enough to plant several hundred new trees. Eventually, when t

37、hese trees have grown, seeds will again be taken only from the fastest growing trees of crop.
