问题 Passage 8Trees should only be pruned when there is a good and clear reason for doing so and,fortunately,the number of such reasons is small.Pruning involves cutting away of overgrown and unwanted branches,and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the trees to grow in their own ways.First,pruning may be done to make sure that trees have a desired shape or size.The object may be to get a tree of the right height,and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape.Secondly,pruning may be done to make the tree healthier.You may cut out diseased or dead wood,or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus causing wounds.The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing the branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of airOne result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for diseases,but it is a wound that will heal.Often there is a race between the healing and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die,or that there is a period when the tree is at risk.It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce the risk as far as possible.It is essential to make the area which has been pruned smooth and clean,for healing will be slowed down by roughness.You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it with one of the substances available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose.Pruning is usually done in winter for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without the interference(妨碍)from the leaves and it is,too,very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed If this does happen,it is,of course,impossible to paint them properly.Why is a special material painted on the tree?(  )A.cause it can help a would to dryB.Because it can cover a rough surfaceB.Because it can make a would smoothC.Because it can prevent disease entering a wound
