50) The virgin forest with its richness and variety of trees was a real trea-sure-house which extended from Maine all the way down to Georgia.
重点解析：
virgin forest 原始森林
richness 丰富（rich的名词形式）treasure-house 宝库
extend延伸，伸展
extend from A to B 从A延伸到B句子主干是“the virgin forest was a real treasure-house"
"with its richness and variety of trees"是后置定语，修饰“virgin forest”"which extended from Maine all the way down to Georgia"是定语从句，修饰“treasure-house"
【参考译文】拥有丰富和多样树种的原始森林是一个真正的宝库，它从缅因州一路延伸到乔治亚州。
