15、 1919. He lived in a time when rules controlled what African Americans could do. He was a top athlete, playing football, basketball and baseball. But playing for a major League team was off limits to Robinson because of his race. It wasnt easy. Robinson sometimes faced boos (嘘声) from fans. But he be
16、came a star, anyway. In 1962, he became the first African-American player chosen to enter the Baseball Hall of Fame.

The advantages are obvious; they firm the soil, soak up (摄取) extra water and take carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) out of the atmosphere.However, it now turns out that planting trees could add to global warming.Huge dust storms blow out over the oceans from dry parts
21、 of North Africa and central Asia. Tons of dust are lifted and left as a thin film over the ocean surface.
