【解析】文章介紹了竹子這一植物，提到了它的生長(zhǎng)習(xí)性，種類，以及它的多種用處．
⑴ It is called as a kind of tree by many people，but it is a kind of grass．漢譯英題．分析所給漢語可知，此句可用被動(dòng)語態(tài)翻譯，用到的短語有be called as…by…表示被…稱為…，主語用代詞it代指bamboo，時(shí)態(tài)是一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，be動(dòng)詞要用is；第二個(gè)句子同樣用it作主語，用but表示轉(zhuǎn)折，a kind of表示一種．由這些重點(diǎn)詞匯與用法即可得出此句答案．
⑵ 有一千多種竹子生長(zhǎng)在世界各地的山地和平原上．英譯漢題．翻譯此句要熟悉there be句型表示某處有…；more than表示超過；還要分析這是一個(gè)that引導(dǎo)的定語從句，that后的從句修飾bamboo；both…and…表示（兩者）都…熟悉以上短語和句型即能正確翻譯出此句．
⑶ engineers are teaching poor farmers how they can use bamboo to find water．句型轉(zhuǎn)換題．分析句子可知此句是簡(jiǎn)單句，變復(fù)合句的關(guān)鍵在于"疑問詞+不定式"作賓語這個(gè)用法可以轉(zhuǎn)換成一個(gè)賓語從句，此處是how to use，變?yōu)橘e語從句要用how引導(dǎo)，再添加上主語they和情態(tài)動(dòng)詞can即可，要用陳述語序．
⑷ （these） Afican countries．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．由because可知they have no money是These African countries need cheap ways to find water的原因，所以they代替的就是because前的句子的主語these African countries．
⑸ Bamboo is one of the nature's most surprising plants．主旨題．閱讀題的主旨通常在首尾段，通讀全文可知此文講的是竹子的生長(zhǎng)習(xí)性，各類，并著重講了它的作用，所以主題是竹子，中心句就是文章的第一句，句意為竹子是自然界最令人驚奇的植物之一．
