The grafted plant begins to【D5】______the leaves and fruit of the scion, not the rootstock.
   A graft can be cut in several ways. A cleft graft (割接,劈接), for example, requires a scion with several buds on it. The bottom of the scion is cut in the【D6】______of the letter V. A place is cut in the rootstock to accept the scion. The scion is then【D7】______placed into the cut on the rootstock. Growth medium is put on the【D8】______to keep it wet and help the growth.
   Grafting can join scions with【D9】______qualities to the rootstock that is strong and resists disease and insects. Some common fruit trees such as sweet cherries have to be grafted.
   In an age of high-technology agriculture, grafting is a low-technology method that remains【D10】______important.
