25、Would it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation—their young trees?

Professor Simard , forest ecologist( 生态学家) from the University of British Columbia, explains how trees are much more complex（复杂）than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin（达尔文） thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard and her team have made a new discovery and showed just how wrong he was. In fact,the opposite is true: trees survive through their group work and support, passing around necessary nutrition (营养) like Nitrogen (氮) and carbon "depending on who needs it".

Nitrogen and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks, This makes sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.

Simard talks about "mother trees", These are usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. These “Mother Trees” are connected to all the other trees in the forest by this network of fungi, and may manage the resources of the whole trees and plants in the forest. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down "Mother Trees" without paying attention to these highly complex "tree societies" or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances to save the whole forest.

"We didn't take any notice of it" Simard says sadly. "Mother trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance." If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.

【1】The underlined sentence "the opposite is true" in Paragraph 2 probably means that trees_______.

A. compete for survival B. protect their own wealth

C. depend on each other D. provide support for dying trees

【2】"Mother trees" are extremely important because they________.

A. look the largest in size in the forest

B. pass on nutrition to young trees

C. seem more likely to be cut down by humans

D. know more about the complex "tree societies"

【3】The underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refers to__________.

A. how "tree societies" work B. how trees grow old

C. how forestry industry develops D. how young trees survive

【4】What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Old Trees Communicate Like Humans

B. Young Trees Are In Need Of Protection

C. Trees Are More Awesome Than You Think

D. Trees Contribute To Our Society

26、I heard the following curious story from a railway acquaintance (相识的人). He was a gentleman of more than seventy years of age, and his good face and sincere manner put the stamp of truth on everything he said.

“You know, in Siam the royal white elephant is very important. It is sacred to kings, and only kings can have a white elephant. And white elephants are more important than the king.”

Very well…five years ago…

After a misunderstanding between the countries, the King of Siam decides to send the Queen of England a present. This present must be a royal one. And what present can be as royal as a white elephant? It is my job to deliver the present to her Majesty the Queen. I travel with my servants, and the officers and helpers of the elephant, in a ship. Soon we arrive in New York harbour and I find a place for my royal elephant to stay in Jersey City. The elephant is not well and we must stay in New York until the doctors say he is better and can travel again.

_________________________________. I get a phone call in the middle of the night: the white elephant is stone! For some moments I feel helpless. Then I become calmer. There is only one thing I can do. I hurry to New York City and ask the first policeman that I meet to bring me to the headquarters (总部) of the police force. I am fortunate. The chief of the force, the well-known Inspector Blunt, is there. I tell him everything. He does not seem at all surprised. He asks me to sit down and says calmly, “Let me think for a moment, please.”

Then he sits down at his office table and leans his head on his hand. Some people are working at the other end of the room. For the next six or seven minutes the only sound I can hear is the sound of their pens. The inspector sits quietly, thinking. Finally he raises his head, and I can see from his face that he has a plan.

27、   If you live in Shanghai, you might have taken a "lesson" in sorting(分类)garbage, as the city introduced new garbage-sorting regulations(规章)on July 1, 2019.

As China' s first city to carry out strict regulations on garbage sorting and recycling, Shanghai requires its residents(居民) to sort garbage into four categories(类别), namely recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan.

Since the regulation took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced by an average of 15, 500 tons, dropping 26 percent from the end of 2018, while the average daily weight of recyclables hits 4, 500 tons, five times higher than the end of 2018, according to the Shanghai Landscaping and City Appearance Administrative Bureau.

The city also rebuilt 21, 000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40, 000 waste bins have been dated(更新). The city's waste collection and transportation system is complete, according to the bureau.

"Proper waste sorting protects the environment and saves natural resources, " said Deng Jianping, director of the bureau. "Led by the central government, Shanghai is making efforts to develop long-term solutions to garbage management. "

However, there have also been some problems. Some people complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, as they are asked to remove wet garbage from its bag when dumping(倾倒).

According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin.

This separation is necessary, as it ensures that the wet garbage will decompose(分解)properly and become useful organic(有机的)waste, the bureau said.

Plastic bags can affect this process. Some people in Shanghai are instead using paper bags that can biodegrade(生物降解)or plastic containers that can be washed and reused, according to Xinhua.

A.harmful, recyclable, dry and wet waste

B.recyclable, dry, harmful and kitchen waste

C.recyclable, kitchen, dry and "other" waste

D.harmful, recyclable, dry and "other" waste

【2】What does the third paragraph tell us?

A.The garbage-sorting regulation has already brought improvements.

B.Recyclable waste comes out to two-thirds of the total daily waste.

C.In 2019, people produced less waste than in 2018.

D.Shanghai needs stricter rules to deal with waste.

【3】According to Deng Jianping, Shanghai ______________________.

A.has added more than 40, 000 waste bins

B.will help other cities make garbage-sorting regulations

C.has had problems with garbage management

D.is still looking for long-term solutions to deal with garbage

【4】What does "this process" in the last paragraph refer to?

A.The process of sorting garbage.

B.The process of dumping wet waste.

C.The process of decomposing wet waste.

D.The separation of wet waste and dry waste.

28、Underage driving is common in many parts of India.

Parents of 10 teenagers have been sentenced to a day in prison for letting their c【1】 drive in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad.

The police said 35 parents served a one-day jail term last month for the same r【2】. The parents told the BBC they were not aware of a rule which says they would be held responsible for a【3】 a child to drive.

This is part of the city’s f【4】 to reduce underage driving, police said.

“I was unaware of underage driving rule. My 17-year-old son took his bike to go for his tutorial. And we were s【5】 to prison,” said Shakeel Ahmed.

A senior police officer said he hoped spending a day or two in jail would make parents to think t【6】 before letting children use their vehicles.

“In the l【7】 two months, four children died in the city because they were driving vehicles. To s【8】 similar cases, we have charged over 1,000 people for underage driving,” a senior police officer told the BBC.

A【9】 city in southern India, Bangalore, also tried to promote(促进) safe driving on its roads last year.

The city’s police tracked down five teenagers who performed risky stunts on the road. Since they were under 18 years old, the police arrested their parents i【10】.

Road accidents are common in India, often due to poor driving or badly maintained roads and vehicles. Experts blame poorly designed roads. More than 150,000 people were killed on India's roads in 2016, according to figures released by the government.
