spread of the desert.It takes between 40 to 60 years for an argon tree to become an adult.And scientists say that the tree may live for 200 to 400 years.But this long growing time can be a problem.When someone cuts down an argon tree,it takes a very long time for another one to grow and replace it.The women in Morocco make a special product from the trees:argon oil.They gather the fruit from the ground.Then,they take the seeds(籽)out of the fruit.When these seeds dry,they pound them between two stones to remove the oil.In the past,the women produced argon oil to use in cooking,on
