①You can put a stamp on it, you can write an address on it, and you can send it through the mail. No, it’s not a package(包裹). It’s the amazing coconut (椰子)! The coconut is different from most other fruits because every part of it is useful. People have been using coconuts in many different ways. Here are some of them.
②One exciting use of the coconut is as a kind of energy. Scientists are working on using coconuts for energy because they are cheap and clean. Coconut oil has already been made into fuel (燃料). It can power cars, trucks, ships and many more.
③Students at Baylor University find that coconut husks (外壳) can take in water very well. So mixing coconut husks into soil helps the soil retain more water. The students also find that coconut husks can take the place of plastic in some cases. If this is possible, it will help people use less plastic.
④The husk of the coconut is a perfect package. It protects the coconut from harm. That’s why some countries allow people to send the coconut without any packaging. Each year, tourists post about 3,000 of these “coconut postcards”.
⑤Coconuts grow naturally in over 80 countries of the world. They need sunshine and enough rain. Every year, we get more than 50 million tons of coconuts. It is not surprising that people have found so many uses for the coconut.

①你可以在它上面贴邮票，你可以在它上面写地址，并且你可以通过邮件寄送它。不，它不是一个包裹。它是神奇的椰子！椰子与大多数其他水果不同，因为它的每一部分都有用。人们一直在以许多不同的方式使用椰子。以下是其中的一些方式。
②椰子的一种令人兴奋的用途是作为一种能源。科学家们正在研究将椰子用于能源，因为它们既便宜又清洁。椰子油已经被制成燃料。它可以为汽车、卡车、轮船以及更多交通工具提供动力。
③贝勒大学的学生们发现椰子壳能很好地吸收水分。所以将椰子壳混入土壤中有助于土壤保留更多的水分。学生们还发现，在某些情况下椰子壳可以代替塑料。如果这是可能的，它将帮助人们减少塑料的使用。
④椰子壳是一个完美的包装。它保护椰子免受伤害。这就是为什么一些国家允许人们不进行任何包装就寄送椰子。每年，游客们会寄出大约3000张这样的“椰子明信片”。
⑤椰子在世界上80多个国家自然生长。它们需要阳光和充足的雨水。每年，我们收获超过5000万吨的椰子。人们发现椰子有这么多用途也就不足为奇了。
