However, if large trees could survive in their original natural habitats, or in agricultural societies where they would be surrounded by paddy fields, then the water and fertilizers they require would be freely absorbed by every leaf and there would be no need for human care.
但是，如果大樹仍生存在原始自然狀態，或農業社會裡，樹被水田圍繞，吃得到水、肥料，每片葉子都能吸收到所需的養分，當然可以避免人工照顧。
