Try to think about this: you sit down and begin to eat a tomato. Suddenly, the tomato starts to shout! This thing would never really happen. But a new study showed that plants make sounds when they are stressed（压力大的）. Scientists in Israel did the study. They used ultrasonic microphones（超声波麦克风）to keep the sounds of tomato plants in boxes.

They listened to three groups of plants.

The first two groups made sounds 30 to 50 times every hour. The third group only made the sound one time every hour. "When tomatoes are not stressed, they are very quiet. " Lilach Hadany from the study team told CNN.

Scientists think animals may listen to the sounds. For example, they can know the plant is stressed from the sound. And it is not good for laying eggs（产卵） on. When an animal wants to eat plants， it can also use sound to tell which one to eat. If the plans keep quiet, it would like to enjoy the meal. The scientist also listened to other plants like wheat（小麦）and corn（玉米）. They also made many sounds when stressed. Scientists said the study can help farmers in the future. By "hearing" how plants feel, they can look after them better.
