us to leave our plants home during our vacation as plants won't scream like pets,right?A recent study done by a group of scientists at the Tel Aviv University has discovered that some plants will scream when they are under stress.The research was carried out on tomato plants and tobacco plants by cutting their stems(茎)and depriving(剥夺)them of water.A microphone was placed 10cm away from them.When their stems were cut,the plants started "screaming" between 20and 100 kilohertz,and the scientists guess that this scream is probably meant to warn other plants nearby.When the tomato plants' stems were cut,25 ultrasonic(超声的)pain sounds were recorded in an hour,and at the same time,15 ultrasonic pain sounds were recorded from the tobacco plants.When they were deprived of water,the tomato plants recorded even more pain sounds with 35 pain sounds in an hour while the tobacco plants recorded about 11 pain sounds.The plants also acted differently to different kinds of stresses.For example,the tobacco plants gave out a stronger "scream"when they were deprived of water than when their stems were cut.But plants that were in no immediate(立刻的)danger gave out less than one ultrasonic sound per hour.The group of scientists said that plants are not as quiet as we had always thought,but in fact their voices are so high﹣pitched that we just can't hear them.Last year,another study has found out that plants feel pain when they are touched or hurt and they will give of a terrible smell.(1)What have the group of scientists at the Tel Aviv University discovered?AA.Some plants under stress will scream.B.Plants in danger scream to warn others.C.Some plants under stress feel energetic.D.Plants in danger give off a sweet smell.(2)What was the microphone underlined in paragraph 3

hour when deprived of water?AA.11.B.15.C.25.D.35.(4)What can we learn from the passage?CA.Tomato plants acted the same under different stresses.B.Tobacco plants gave off a smell when they were safe.C.Plants not in immediate danger screamed most weakly.D.Plants that felt pain screamed loudly for people to hear.解析:本文主要讲了科学家对于植物的研究,发现植物也会尖叫,也有痛感.参考答案:(1)A.细节理解题.题目问特拉维夫大学的科学家团队发现了什么,根据第二段A recent study done by a group of scientists at the Tel Aviv University has discovered that some plants will scream when they are under stress.可知他们发现植物在压力之下会尖叫,故选A.(2)C.推理判断题.题目问第三段划线单词microphone是用于做什么的,根据第三段A microphone was placed 10cm away from them.When their stems were cut,the plants started "screaming" between 20 and 100 kilohertz,and the scientists guess that this scream is probably meant to warn other plants nearby.可知当植物的茎被折断的时候,植物会尖叫,因此判断划线的单词是用于检测植物的尖叫的,即手机超声波声的,故选C.(3)A.细节理解题.题目问当缺水的时候烟草植物一个小时会发出多少超声波疼痛,根据第四段When they were deprived of water,the tomato plants recorded even more pain sounds with 35 pain sounds in an hour while the tobacco plants recorded about 11 pain sounds.可知是11次,故选A.(4)C.题目问从文中我们可以知道什么,根据第六段The group of scientists said that plants are not as quiet as we had always thought,but in fact their voices are so high﹣pitched that we just can't hear

horses from the country,little Welsh ponies and many beautiful horses too.But there were also a lot of poor,thin horses,tired from hard work.I was very sad to see them.At the horse fair there was a man with a gentle voice and kind grey eyes.He offered 23 pounds for me,but they refused.Then a man with a very loud voice came.I was afraid he was going to buy me,but he walked off.Then the grey﹣eyed man came back again and said:"I'll give 24 for him.""Done,"said the salesman."He's a quality horse and if you want him for cab(出租马车)work,he's a bargain."Half an hour later we set off for London,along country roads,until we came to that great city.There were streets to the right,and streets to the left.We went into one of the small streets,and then into a very narrow street,with small,old houses.My

Read on to find out about British teenagers and their money!Pocket moneyMost teenagers in Britain receive pocket money from their parents. They might have to do some housework to get pocket money, including cleaning, cooking, washing dishes and so on.A part﹣time job is a choice for teenagers who don't have pocket money or who want to get extra money.About 15% teenagers have a job. Only children over the age of 13 can work. Popular part﹣time jobs for teens include babysitting, delivering(递送)newspapers, restaurant work and shop work. Children in Briain can work two hours a day at the most on a school day but not during school hours. During weekends and school holidays, they can work longer hours.Bank accounts (账户)Some children and teenagers have a bank account. There is no age limit at which you can open a bank account, but a bank manager can decide whether to open an account for a child or a young person. Parents can put pocket money directly into their child's bank account. Most banks have a prepaid bank card designed for young people.Mobile appsMany companies have made mobile apps for children, including GoHeny, Osper and Gimi.Parents can add money to their children's accounts and check to see how the money is spent. Children can choose to save their money or spend it using a card. The apps suggest that kids from 8 to 13 can use the cards.So, many teenagers are getting experience working part﹣time, dealing with banks and deciding whether to save or spend their money.

We always think that it's OK for us to leave our plants home during our vacation as plants won't scream like pets, right?A recent study done by a group of scientists at the Tel Aviv University has discovered that some plants will scream when they are under stress.The research was carried out on tomato plants and tobacco plants by cutting their stems (茎) and depriving(剥夺) them of water. A________ was placed 10cm away from them. When their stems were cut, the plants started "screaming" between 20 and 100 kilohertz, and the scientists guess that this scream is probably meant to warn other plants nearby.When the tomato plants' stems were cut, 25 ultrasonic(超声的) pain sounds were recorded in an hour, and at the same time, 15 ultrasonic pain sounds were recorded from the tobacco plants. When they were deprived of water, the tomato plants recorded even more pain sounds with 35 pain sounds in an hour while the tobacco plants recorded about 11 pain sounds.The plants also acted differently to different kinds of stresses. For example, the tobacco plants gave out a stronger "scream"when they were deprived of water than when their stems were cut. But plants that were in no immediate(立刻的) danger gave out less than one ultrasonic sound per hour.The group of scientists said that plants are not as quiet as we had always thought, but in fact their voices are so high﹣pitched that we just can't hear them.Last year, another study has found out that plants feel pain when they are touched or hurt and they will give of a terrible smell.(1)What have the group of scientists at the Tel Aviv University discovered?________A Some plants under stress will scream.B Plants in danger scream to warn others.C Some plants under stress feel energetic.D Plants in danger give off a sweet smell..(2)What was the microphone underlined in paragraph 3 used for?________A Cutting the stems of plants.B Depriving plants of water.C Collecting ultrasonic sounds.D Testing different stresses..(3)How many ultrasonic pain sounds did the tobacco plants give out in an hour when deprived of water?________A 11.B 15.C 25.D 35..(4)What can we learn from the passage?________A Tomato plants acted the same under different stresses.B Tobacco plants gave off a smell when they were safe.C Plants not in immediate danger screamed mostweakly. D Plants that felt pain screamed loudly for people to hear..20. A horse fair is an interesting place. There were young horses from the country, littleWelsh ponies and many beautiful horses too. But there were also a lot of poor, thin horses, tired from hard work. I was very sad to see them.At the horse fair there was a man with a gentle voice and kind grey eyes. He offered 23 pounds for me, but they refused. Then a man with a very loud voice came. I was afraid he was going to buy me, but he walked off. Then the grey﹣eyed man came back again and said:"I'll give 24 for him.""Done, "said the salesman."He's a quality horse and if you want him for cab(出租马车)work, ________."Half an hour later we set off for London, along country roads, until we came to that great city.There were streets to the right, and streets to the left. We went into one of the small streets, and then into a very narrow street, with small, old houses.My owner stopped at a house. The door opened, and a woman, a little girl andboy, came out."Is he gentle, father? ""Yes, Dolly, as gentle as a kitten; you can pat him."Dolly, the little girl, patted my shoulder without fear. It felt so good! They led me into a comfortable, clean stable, and after a delicious meal I lay down to sleep, thinking "I'm going to be very happy here".My new owner's name was Jerry. His wife was called Polly and they had two children, Harry and Dolly. The next morning they came to see me.

Someboy mentions hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按字母表的顺序)and use numbers torepresent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c…, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98, meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96, while love :12+15+22+5=54, and luck : 12+21+3+11=47, a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money or prayer(祈祷)? They can’t , either.Then what else? Don’t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude(态度).Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100,a full mark.Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the betterr after one has changed one’s attitude.When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces towards you.In the same way, if you take a positive(积极地)attitude towards failure(失败),you’ll find it’s also rewarding though it has caused you losses.31.In the writer’s opinion , what is the most important things in a person’s life?A.Hard-work.B.Knowledge.C.Money.D.Attitude.32.According to the passage, if you meet with problems, the best way out is to ___________.A. ask for helpf from othersB.say your prayers to GodC.change your attitudeD.try maths-solving methods33.From the passage we can learn that ______________.A.diffrent attitudes come from different courses of life.B.mathematics can solve every problem easily in our daily lifeC.failure sometimes can bring you good if you take a positive attitudeD.none of the English words except “attitude” equals to 100 or more(B)Many years before the United States was founded(建立), Americans had already invented barbecues. But the first barbecues, in fact ,were the invention of the Taino Indians of Haiti, who dried their meat on raised frames(架子)of sticks over fires. Spanish explorers spelled the Taino word as barbacoa, and as time passed, English settlers along the Atlantic coat had their own barbecues.One summer day in 1773, Benjamin Lynde, a citizen of Massachusetts, wrote in his diary, “Fair and hot ; Browne;hack overset.” That is , on a bright and hot day he went to the Brownes to attedn a barbecue, and his carriage(马车)fell over. It shows that the barbecue had its social occasion by that time. Large animals would be roasted whole on frames over hot fires, and neighbours would be invited to dinner.In later centuries, as settlers moved to the west, the barbecue went along with it, reaching an especially large size in Texas, where a pit (坑)for fuels(燃料) such as tree branches might be over ten feet deep. Today , the barbecue grills(烧烤架)which are fueled by charcoal(木炭) or electricity are likely to be small and easy to move , and can cook only parts of an animal at a time, but people still have barbecues out of doors and always invite their neighbours or friends over.34.Who invented the barbecues first in history?A.American people.B.Taino Indians.C.Spanish explorers.D.English settlers.35.The second paragraph mainly tells us that the barbecue_______________.A.is only held on a hot sunny dayB.welcomes people who keep diariesC.is held both indoors and outdoorsD.has its social occasion for over 200 years36.The underlined expression “ social occasion” can be best translated into______________.A.社交功能B.社会福利C.社会地位D.社会背景37.The following are all the barbecue ways EXCEPT __________________.A. drying meat on raised frames of sticks over firesB. roasting a whole animal over a pit full of burning tree branchesC.cooking parts of animals over fires on grills fueled by charcoalD.heating meat in the bright and hot daylight(C)A Solar-powered Plane---LowcarbonEarlier this month, a solar-powered (太阳能动力的)plane called Lowcarbon took off to the sky for the first time. It has passed an important test on the way to travel around the world.Lowcarbon took off from an airport in Switzerland(瑞士)at 45 km an hour. It slowly rose into the sky.“There has never been an airplane so big, so light, using so little energy,” said Bertrand Piccard, a leader of the project.During the 90-minute flight, Lowcarbon did several turns. It climbs nearly 1.6 km above the countryside.Engineers plan to test a night flight in July. Then they will use the results of the tests to build a second plane. They plan to travel around the world in that plane in 2012. “We want to fly it day and night with no fuel,” Piccard said.Piccard and pilot Andre Borschberg will take Lowcarbon around the world .They will make a few stops to change places and rest after a long time in the air----and to show off their aircraft. Lowcarbon flies at 70 kph on average(平均). That is faster than a bike and slower than a car. The pilots will keep it in the air for up to five days at a time.We Are One---“Expo Through My Eyes”Sharing offers you more happiness. To celebrate the 2010 ShanghaiWorld Expo, China Daily invites you to share what you’ve seen, heardand experienced at the 6-month international event or Expo-relatedstories in English.

She called the cabin stewardess(机舱乘务员)over to complain about her seating.“What seems to be the problem, Madam?” asked the stewardess.“Can’t you see?” she said. “You’ve sat me next to a black man. I can’t possibly sit next to this kind of human. Find me another seat!”“Please calm down, Madam,” the stewardess replied. “The flight is very full today, but I’ll tell you what I’ll do---IWill go and check to see if we have any free seats in Club(商务舱)or First Class.”The lady had an unfriendly look at the outraged(被激怒的)black man beside her.A few minutes later the stewardess returned and said to the lady with a self –satisfied smile, “I’m sorry, Madam, this Economy(经济舱)is full, and Club is also full.
