Many
years ago, there lived a hermit in a forest in Sumatera. He did not grow foods
but depended on the jungle to survive. Soon, there was a drought, all the
plants and fruit trees in the jungle died
The
old man had nothing to eat now, so he turned to begging. He went to nearby
village trying to get some food. At first, the villagers were very happy to
help him. However, when he came continually, they refused to give him any more
food. They told him to grow his own food.
One
day, while the hermit was sitting in his hut, sad and hungry, he began to think
about growing his own food. Just then a boatman stopped by and taking on the
hermit, gave him some rice seeds.
Before
the boatman went away, he said, “These seeds will grow and give you everlasting
harvest if you work very hard. If you are tired of the work, the rice plants
will turn into weeds”.
The
old hermit worked hard to clear the land and sowed the seeds before the rains
came. Strangely, after a short period of time, the rice was ready for
harvesting. The old man got a lot of rice from the harvest. After each harvest,
the plants grew back again right away.
When
the villagers heard about the hermit and his wonderful rice, they flocked to
his rice-field and took home as much rice as they could.
One
day, the hermit became so tired of harvesting the rice that she shouted. “Oh,
stop growing, you wretched thing!” As soon as he had said this, the rice plants
turned into weeds.

In
autumn, the color of the leaves changes into beautiful yellow, red, and brown.
Do you know how this happens? To answer the questions, first we have to
understand about leaves.
Leaves
are the food factories of plants. Plants take water from the ground through
their roots and they take carbon dioxide from the air. Plants need glucose for
energy and for their growth.
The
plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose. The process
is called photosynthesis and substances process. The trees will rest, and use
the food that they have stored during summer. The trees begin to close their
food factories. The green chlorophyll substance disappears from the leaves. As
the leaves begin to lose their green color, they change into beautiful yellow
and orange.
In
some trees, like maple tree, glucose is trapped in the leaves after the
photosynthesis process stops. Sunlight and cool rights turn the green color of
the leaves into red. Oak leaves become brown because of wastes that are left in
the leaves. This combination of red and brown makes the trees look very
beautiful in autumn.

stored their food
