D
Why do plants grow in some places but not in others? Why does some land have so many plants growing on it, while other land has almost no plants growing on it at all?
To grow, plants need several things. One is warmth. In very cold places almost nothing grows. Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the Earth only a few unusual plants can grow. That"s why there are almost no trees or grass in dry deserts.
Plants must also have a place to put down their roots and grow. They find it difficult to grow on hard land. The town is built (被建立) on hard land. The plants there have only the soil between the cracks of the stones to grow in.
Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food. What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach? A few plants, such as grass, will grow in sand, but most plants won"t. Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants each day, many of them will die because the sand on this beach has almost no food for plants.
According to the passage, plants need things to grow well.
A、two
B、three
C、four
D、five
The underlined word "cracks" means .
A、long narrow openings
B、the surface of something
C、small plants on something
D、the bottom of something
From the passage, we call know it is for plants to grow in dry places.
A、easy
B、difficult
C、impossible
D、important
The passage can most probably be found in a book.
A、science
B、history
C、travel
D、math

阅读短文，下列问题
D
Pupils spend more time at school than they spend with their parents. So communication (变流) between them can be difficult. Parents spend the whole day on work and they come home in the evening. Then they hardly talk with or pay attention to (注意) their children. And it is worse (更不好的) if parents work in another town. Parents and children only spend weekends together. This is bad because we know how important communication is to people, especially (尤其) to children. To grow up healthily, children need to learn to communicate. That is why I think school is more important in forming (塑造) children"s characters.
First, school is a place where children can learn how to read and write. They can have good conversations and learn good manners from teachers. School is also the place where they can meet other pupils and learn how to communicate with others.
Second, children can find out what it means to work in a team every day. Teachers show children how important it is to get information. The things children learn at school help them make important decisions in later life.
School has responsibility(责任)for children"s future. So teachers should work as hard as they can.

A、Pupils spend more time at school than with their parents.
B、Parents and children only spend weekends together.
