[誤] Tea trees grow well in these mountain fields.

[正] Tea grows well in these mountain fields.

注：“茶樹”、“果樹”等在翻譯成英語時(shí)常常省略 tree，因?yàn)檫@些詞本身就包含“樹”的意思。如 orange(橘子樹)，banana(香蕉樹)等。

參考例句：

1、Orange trees are alien to China 橘子樹是從外國傳入中國的

2、There are some banana trees on that island over there 那邊小島上有幾棵香蕉樹
