B Flowers evolved in quite a short period of time.
C Among scientists, biologists work the fastest.
D Flowering plants actually appeared 30 million years ago.
Listen again and fill in the blanks.
ProfW: Scientists say flowers first on Earth about 140 million years ago. Then, by about 30 million years later, flowers completed their evolutionary processes. Well, the interesting thing is that to a biologist, 30 million years of time is, so the evolutionary process of flowers is to be very fast. That''s why a group of scientists are now trying to solve the mystery flowers'' fast evolution. to solve this mystery is to make a full of a plant called "Amborella". The Amborella is a very important plant for the scientists because it is the flowering plant. And now, many scientists hope that it can provide clues about flowers'' and evolution.
