Do you know kind words and light music can help plants grow better? Many people talk and play music to their plants. And many people try very hard to protect their plants from loud noise, strong light and bad smell. That's not all. Some people are very careful about what they say or do in front of plants. They don't talk about unhappy things and won't beat a fly near their plants.
Do plants have feelings? Many pupils think so. Even a few scientists think that plants have feelings. But most scientists don't agree. They don't think that plants call be happy, worried, angry, loving or afraid. They don't believe that a plant's feeling can be hurt.
Professor Cleve Backster in America did an experiment and said that plants have feelings like human beings. He published an article in a magazine in 1968. People began to pay more attention to this topic since then.
