（2025·泰安模拟）Houses covered in ivy are an attractive sight to see. But many gardeners fear that ivy causes major structural damage to buildings and long to remove it whenever they can， right？ Not so， says James Wong， a botanist and science writer.

“I am always surprised by how often gardening can be so driven by fear，” he says.“The thinking behind this is that climbers harm brickwork and can cause structural damage to buildings.” But few fears are based on any scientific evidence. And frequently， the exact opposite is true.

　　In a 2020 study from the Royal Horticultural Society， climbing plants like ivy were found to have a protective effect on model brick buildings constructed for the experiment. The shade by the plants’ leaves cooled the surface of the buildings in summer by as much as 5.7 ℃. What’s more， ivy didn’t significantly raise humidity levels （湿度） — rather， it helped stabilize them， minimizing the damage to the buildings’ surfaces. The living coating also lowered summer temperatures inside the buildings by up to 7.2 ℃ and reduced heating bills by as much as 20 percent in winter.

　　What about real-world， well-used buildings， whose outside may have experienced centuries of environmental damage？ Another study from 2011 found that in five historic buildings across England， bare walls experienced average maximum temperatures 36 percent higher and minimum temperatures 15 percent lower compared with those coated in ivy. The researchers concluded that the living insulation （隔热） provided by ivy would reduce the likelihood of frost and salt damage to the building materials， thus contributing to their conservation.They also found in another study that the leaves’ ability to trap pollution could reduce the damage to historical walls.

　　Imagine if there was a new material that could cool cities and cut energy bills. The truth is that we have had this miracle material all along， but rather than appreciating it， we have spent huge amounts of time worrying about how to get rid of it.
