  托福阅读修辞目的题:Plant Colonization

  【Paragraph 1】Colonization is one way in which plants can change the ecology of a site. Colonization is a process with two components: invasion and survival. The rate at which a site is colonized by plants depends on both the rate at which individual organisms (seeds, spores, immature or mature individuals) arrive at the site and their success at becoming established and surviving. Success in colonization depends to a great extent on there being a site available for colonization – a safe site where disturbance by fire or by cutting down of trees has either removed competing species or reduced levels of competition and other negative interactions to a level at which the invading species can become established. For a given rate of invasion, colonization of a moist, fertile site is likely to be much more rapid than that of a dry, infertile site because of poor survival on the latter. A fertile, plowed field is rapidly invaded by a large variety of weeds, whereas a neighboring construction site from which the soil has been compacted or removed to expose a coarse, infertile parent material may remain virtually free of vegetation for many months or even years despite receiving the sane input of seeds as the plowed field.(Plant Colonization)

  Why does the author mention a plowed field and a construction site in the passage?

  ○ To argue that sites that have been affected by human activity tend to be colonized slowly

  ○ To illustrate the kind of sites that may be invaded by weeds

  ○ To contrast sites in terms of their suitability for colonization

  ○ To explain that exposing or compacting the soil results in successful colonization
