We all cry for water when we are thirsty. But do you know,  in very hot,  dry weather,  plants also make very low sounds ― as if they are crying out for help?

You see,  in a plant's stem(莖) there are several hundred "water pipes(管道)" that bring water from soil all the way up to the leaves. When the ground turns dry,  it becomes harder and harder for plants to do this.

In very hot days,  plants have to get any water that it can.

Scientist Robert Winter has found out that when plants can get no water, their "water pipes" snap(發出斷裂聲) . When that happens,  the whole plant vibrates( 振動 ) a little. The snapping pipes make noises ten thousand times more quiet than a whisper(低語).
