Plants are very important living things. 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.
58. The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______.
A. plants are important for life
B. plants cannot grow without air
C. there are many plants in the world
D. we can not live without water

D. Without plants,man will die out.

“L ife is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.”
This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unknown citizen who lived in Rome in 52 wrote it.
We all love new inventions. They are exciting , amazing and can even change our lives.
But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?
Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes empty and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done. How calm and happy do you feel?
Inventions have speeded up(加速)our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed(压力) and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not even electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they lead simpler lives.
A family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin, 10, and Thomas,7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phones.
The grandmother, Lyn, said, “It was hard physically, but not mentally.”She believed life was less materialistic. “The more things you have , the more difficult life becomes.” She said. The boys said they found less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a trendy, beer-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.
Here are some simple ways to beat the stress often caused by our inventions!
Don’t be available all the time. Turn off your mobile phone at certain times of the day.
Don’t check your e-mail every day.
Don’t reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can. It may be fun at first, but it soon gets boring.
62. The passage is mainly about_______.
A. problems with technology
B. improvements of our life with technology
C. the important roles technology plays in our everyday life
D. major changes which will be likely to happen to technology
63. The writer quoted( 引用) what a citizen in ancient Rome said at the beginning of the story in order to _______.
A. share a truth about life
B. tell us what life was like long time ago
C. make us wonder what causes such a thing to happen
D. point out that you experience some big problems and they may be the same
64. The family chose to spend some time in a 1940’s house because ______.
A. they liked to live simple lives
B. they were curious about how people lived without modern inventions
C. they were troubled by modern inventions
D. living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them
65. What do you think the underlined word “available” in the first suggestion means?
A. Busy on line
B. Free
C. Able to be used
D. Able to be found by others

Nowadays, different disasters happen here and there, like earthquake,tsunami,snowstorm and so on. As a result, people suffer a lot. It’s high time that we took measures to save our earth and protect ourselves from sufferings. Here are my ideas.
First of all , it’s necessary for government to make laws against over-hunting, air and water pollution, etc. Whoever do harm to our environment should be punished. In this way, people will realize the importance of environment protection. Besides, everyone should pay attention to the small actions in our daily life. For example, we’d better take buses instead of driving cars and never waste water when doing some washing. Only by taking immediate actions, will we have fewer disasters and a safer earth.
Let’s work together and fight for a better future.
