When we talk of plants,most of us will think of things that grow from the ground and have green leaves,but there are plants that do not look or act like other plants.Some of these belong to a special class of plants called fungi.
Fungi may appear almost everywhere.They commonly grow in wet places where they can get food and water easily.Because fungi do not have green leaves to make their own food,but fungi must take their food from animals,other plants or water.Some fungi live on dead or rotting（腐烂的） wood,while others grow on living trees or in dirt or moss (苔藓).Mushrooms(蘑菇) are the best-known fungi.
There are many kinds of mushrooms appearing in all shapes and sizes.For example,cauliflower(菜花) mushrooms are found in forests from July to October.They can grow to be as heavy as fifty pounds!They grow at the foot of trees.Squirrel's(松鼠) bread is another kind of wild mushroom.Its appearance and use can explain its name.These fungi look like small golden cakes.Squirrels can easily eat them or carry them off to their hole to eat later.
The mushrooms found in food stores are carefully grown by people who know they are safe to eat.People are warned never to touch or taste wild mushrooms because some of them are deadly.Even less dangerous ones can still make a person very sick.
