Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants.Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit.Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores(胚芽). Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants. 5.

Instead they are talking about a lovely animal：A dog! These words show the friendship between peopleand animals. Dogs and other pets can give happiness to people’s lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. A few even leave all their money to their pets when they die!Animals can help people too. Dogs can be taught to become the “eyes” for a blind person or “ears” for a deaf people. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people happier too. Because of that animals are brought into hospitals for “visit”.Americans hold “Be-Kind-to-Animals Week” in the first week of May.Pets shows are held during the week. Even if you don’t live in America you can do this too. How? First think about how animals make your life richer. If you have a pet take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious food. Also be sure to keep your pet from those unwanted babies.If you don’t have a pet be kind t o animals around you. For example if you see a street dog don’t kick it or throw things at it. Instead just leave it alone or better yet make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to an animal try to stop them. As people we must protect anima ls who can’t speak for themselves.15. “A few even leave all their money to their pets when they die!” means that__________A. pets have the right to inherit (继续) money.B. money can give pets happiness.C. it’s the best way to spend money.D. some pets are taken as children.16.

In my opinion the most effective way is to learn lessons by heart. If you can recite the text and write it out you’ve learned it fairly well. And if you can tell what the lesson says in your own words you’re a very successful learner indeed. Your English will be quite perfect.This is a difficult task. However if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson you’ll find it not half as hard as you might have thought. Learning this way you will make rapid progress. Of course writing is also necessary. It helps you a lot on our way to success in English.Equally important is to feel the language. You should be able to laugh at jokes and be shocked at bad news. When using English try to forget your mother tongue. Instead of helping you your own language gets in your way. So never try to see English through translation.18.In the writer’s opinion the most effective way in learning English is ____.A.to practise speaking writing and feeling itB.to forget your own native languageC.to learn lessons by heart.D.to memorize the English words and grammatical rules 19. “Instead of helping you your own language gets in your way.”This sentence means that memorizing your own language can ________.A.help you to study English wellB.stop you mastering EnglishC.make English easy toD.help you notice mistakes20.Equally important is to feel the language. “to feel the language” here means________.A.to get a knowledge of English by touching.B. to be able to read and write EnglishC.to translate English into your own by imagining.D. to be able to experience the rich language.第二节：完形题（本题共15小题，每题2分，共30分）One afternoon I was sitting at my favorite table in a restaurant, waiting for the food I had ordered to arrive.
