24、Would it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?
UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition "depending on who needs it".
Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi networks, making 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 in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.
Simard talks about "mother trees", usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. 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" with no awareness of these highly complex "tree societies" or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.
"We didn't take any notice of it" Simard says sadly. "Dying 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】We can learn from the passage that _______.
A. trees aren’t as complex as we think
B. Charles Darwin had the same opinion as Simard
C. if “Mother trees” are cut down, they won’t make difference to young trees.
D. trees can share resources with other ones by the underground fungi networks.
25、根据表格信息,从每小题的A、B、C、D中选出最佳答案。
The earth is 4 600 million years old. We humans have lived on earth for only 35 000 years, but during this period we have changed our planet a lot in many ways. Some things we’ve done are very good for the earth while some are bad.
All over the world, people have cut down millions of trees. When it rains or when the wind blows, the earth is taken away. Forests have become deserts, so more and more sorts of animals and plants are disappearing.
In big cities, cars and buses have polluted the air. Many people in cities now have health problems.
Factories have also polluted the land and the water. As a result, many rivers and lakes are nowdead.
Around the earth, there’s a special kind of oxygen called “ozone”(O3). It is important to theearth. But now air pollution is destroying it and that has made a very big hole in the ozone layer. Too much harmful radiation from the sun passes through the hole and reaches the earth directly. This is very dangerous because this kind of radiation can cause cancer.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air has increased a lot. It mainly comes from burning oil, coal andwood. This has formed a “blanket” around the earth. The heat from the sun can’t escape so thetemperature is rising. This is called “the greenhouse effect”. It causes the level of the oceans to rise and the climate of the earth to change.
All these problems are very serious, so we must do something now.
根据短文内容,从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选择最佳答案。
【1】What does our planet mean here?
A. The sun. B. Mars.

【3】The level of the oceans is rising because of _______.
A.pollution
B. few trees
C. the greenhouse effect
D. changes in the climate
【4】Which is NOT true?
A. Cars can pollute the air.
B. Factories can pollute the water.
C. The fewer trees, the better.
D. Not all the things we have done are good for the earth.
【5】What is the best title for this passage?

26、 China isn’t very well-known for its sci-fi films. But a new movie called The Wandering Earth has become China’s biggest sci-fi hit. It’s based on a short story written by a Chinese sci -fi( 科 幻 小 说 ) writer Liu Cixin. In the film, Earth is in face of being destroyed by the dying sun. So humans around the world work together to move Earth out of the solar(太阳的) system. But it will take 2, 500 years to do this.
In most space films, whenever Earth faces a disaster, the solution is always fleeing the planet in spaceships. But The Wandering Earth, offers a different idea: Earth goes wherever humans go, because it’s our home. Instead of giving up Earth again this time, we’re taking it with us.
For thousands of years, “homeland” has had an important place in the hearts and minds of Chinese people. This special cultural background is probably what makes The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style space films.
【1】The Wandering Earth is based on a short story written by a(n) ________.
A.Chinese sci-fi writer B.Chinese movie star
C.American film director D.American doctor
【2】The underlined word “fleeing” in Paragraph 3 means “ ________” in Chinese.
A.破坏 B.逃离 C.保护 D.探索
【3】What makes The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style space films?
A.The cultural background that homeland is important to Chinese people. B.The Wandering Earth is China’s first sci-fi movie.
C.Earth is in face of being destroyed by humans in The Wandering Earth. D.The actors’ wonderful performances in The Wandering Earth.
【4】What is the passage mainly about?
A.The development of Chinese movie. B.The meaning of homeland.
C.The introduction of The Wandering Earth. D.The secret of being a good actor.
27、 Lin Hanxing is a 30-year-old who lives in Beijing. She owns just five shirts, two pairs of trousers, four pairs of shoes, three books and a few other things. It’s hard to believe that only five years ago, Lin was one of those people who couldn’t stop buying things. Back then, she had more than 400 pieces of clothes and handbags. But that was before she saw an online challenge in 2014, introduced by Joshua Becker, a writer in the US who was promoting (推动) a minimalist lifestyle. He encouraged people to reduce the number of their belongings (财物) to fewer than 100. Lin decided to give it a try. She threw away 90 percent of her belongings. She also cleared 120 people she never spoke to from her QQ and Wechat. After doing all that, Lin said she felt ‘lighter’.
We used to think owning more was the way to lead a rich life. But now many people believe that owning less is rich, perhaps richer.
According to US writer Joel Stillerman, people who are educated and wealthy are more likely to have a minimalist lifestyle. These people are saying, ‘I can afford to have less.’
But leading a minimalist lifestyle doesn’t only mean owning or spending less. Adam Lucacias from a UK research company Euromonitor found young people spend less on belongings, but more on short holidays and visits to the movies.
‘They are looking for a life that is all about culture.’ Alison Angus, the manager of Euromonitor, said.
So perhaps it all comes down to how we define (定义) ‘wealth’. Is wealth in life about buying more and owning more, or is it about learning more and experiencing more?
【1】Which of the following leads a minimalist lifestyle?
A. Alison Angus. B. Adam Lucacias.
C. Joe Stillerman. D. Joshua Becker.
【2】What does the underlined sentence mean?
A. I can live a good life with no more education and money.
B. I can live a good life by experiencing less and learning more.
C. I can live a good life with necessary belongings and friends.
D. I can live a good life with less money and fewer belongings.
【3】Lin Hanxing’s definition of ‘wealth’ may probably cover __________.
A. Owning fewer friends B. doing more learning
C. Having more holidays D. Chatting less often with people

e【2】early or late. she had it built so that people would have the s【3】 time.
How did Big Ben get its name? Some people say that it was named after Benjamin Caunt, a boxer. People called him Big Ben. But more people believe it was named after Sir Benjamin Hall. He was in c【4】 of this work in 1859. A story was told that during the discussion about what the bell should be called, Sir Benjamin was going to give his ideas when an officer behind him shouted suddenly, "Let' s call it Big Ben! " From t【5】on, it was named Big Ben .
29、 I recently watched my sister perform an act of magic.
We were sitting in a restaurant, try to have a conversation, but her children, four﹣year﹣old Willow and seven﹣year﹣old Luca, would not stop fighting. The____﹣over a fork, or who had more water in a glass﹣never stopped.
Like a magician who makes a group of children quiet by pulling a rabbit out of a hat, my sister reached into her purse and look out two shiny Apple iPads, handing one to each child. Suddenly, the two were quiet. They sat playing games and watching videos, and we ____with our conversation.
After our meal, as we put the iPads back into their magic bag, my sister felt a bit____.
" I don't want to give them the iPads at the dinner table, but if it keeps them busy for an hour so we can eat in peace, and___, not disturb other people in the restaurant, I often just give it to them," she told me. Then she asked: "Do you think it's bad for them? I do worry that it is making them think it's OK to use electronics at the dinner table in the future."
I did not have an answer, and____ some people might have opinions, no one has a true scientific understanding of what the future might be for a generation raised on screens. Dr. Gary Small, director of the Longevity Center says we do know that the brain is highly sensitive to stimuli (刺激),like iPads and smartphone screen, and if people spend too much time with one technology, and less time acting together with people like parents at the dinner table, that could make it difficult to develop their communicative skills.
We really don't know the full neurological (神经学上的)effects of these technologies yet. But learning about being alone is the basis of early development. If we don't teach our children how to be alone, maybe they 'll____know how to be lonely in the future.
【1】A.opinions B.arguments C.discussion D.conversation
【2】A.continued B.talked C.shared D.communicated
【3】A.satisfied B.comfortable C.surprised D.sorry
