24、A tree is a plant with a tall woody trunk. Like all plants, trees need air, water and sunlight to live and grow.
A tree has a long, woody trunk covered in bark (树皮). The trunk supports the branches, lifting them high above the ground. Bark is dead and protects the living trunk inside. The trunk grows thicker and taller each year.
Trees have many branches. Tree branches spread out in all directions towards sunlight. More and more branches grow each year.
Leaves grow on the branches. The leaves cover the tree in a canopy of green. Leaves use the sun’s energy to make food for the whole tree.
The tree has roots under the ground. Roots absorb water and nutrients from the soil. Trees need water to live and grow. The roots also hold the tree firm when the wind blows.
In cold climates most broadleaf trees lose their leaves in winter. The short cold days cause the leaves fall. Trees that lose their leaves in winter are called deciduous trees.
In spring, as the weather warms up, the tree buds and new leaves grow. The tree may also flower. In summer, the tree grows. A green covering of leaves provides food for the whole tree. In autumn, as the weather begins to cool and the days grow shorter, the food moves from the leaves to the trunk and roots. Leaves lose their green colour and become dry. When the leaves are dead, they fall from the tree. During winter a deciduous tree stops growing. The tree is still alive. It is waiting for warm temperatures before it starts to grow again.
Many animals live in trees. Trees provide food and shelter for monkeys, squirrels, birds and insects.
Most monkeys find food and shelter in trees. They can also escape from land-based predators to their homes above the ground. Monkeys are well-adapted to life in the trees. Their tails help them to climb and jump from branch to branch. Many small mammals live in trees. Trees provide shelter from wind, rain and other animal.
Many birds live their lives in trees. They build their nests in the branches or hollows of trees. Trees provide fruit, nectar and seeds for birds to eat.
Millions of insects live in trees. Many types of beetles, ants and butterflies depend on trees for food and shelter.
【1】What’s the use of the roots of a tree?
① To protect the living trunk. ②To get nutrients. ③ To absorb water.
④To cover the tree in a canopy of green. ⑤ to hold the tree firm.
A. ①②③ B. ①④⑤ C. ②③⑤ D. ③④⑤
【2】Why the leaves fall from the tree in autumn?
A. Because they can grow again after winter.
B. Because they are short of food, and then die.
C. Because the leaves lose their green colour.
D. Because birds use them to build their nests.

25、Working as a vet (兽医), I met a family who taught me an unforgettable lesson. They came to my clinic (诊所) with their dying dog, Coco. I examined Coco and found she was old and had a serious illness. I told the family we couldn’t do anything for Coco, and euthanasia (安乐死) would be best for the dog.
On that day, their little boy Eric seemed so calm (镇静的), petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if Eric understood what was going on.
The little boy seemed to accept Coco’s death without any difficulty. We sat together for a while after Coco’s death, explaining that animal lives are shorter than human lives.
Eric, who had been listening quietly, said, “I know why.”
He said, “People need a lifetime to learn how to live a good life—like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?” The 6-year-old continued, “Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay as long.”
I’d never heard a more soft-hearted explanation as to why animal lives are so short. It has changed the way I live. I see every day as the day that my life could be easily taken away, so I try to live my life to the fullest.
【1】What was the matter with Coco?

A.Because he didn’t know what was going on.
B.Because he didn’t know how to face Coco’s death.
C.Because he had another dog.
D.Because he accepted Coco’s death.
【4】How can we understand Eric’s words?

B.He thought dogs already knew how to love others all the time and be nice.
C.He didn’t think people knew how to love dogs.

26、 As is often the case, parents are very shocked to discover their children have lied to them for the first time. But new research has suggested many parents may not even notice many of the lies their children tell them.
Psychologists have discovered that most parents are over-confident in their children’s honesty and this may impair their ability to discover a lie.
The findings may help to explain why some parents seem to be willing to let their children get away with almost anything even in the face of the evidence (迹象). They say parents suffer from a “truth bias (偏见)” with their own teenagers, but when faced with lies from other people’s children, they have less difficulty telling if a statement is true or not.
Dr. Angela Evans, a psychologist at Brock University in Canada, said, “The close relationship that parents share with their own children may lead to parents failing to discover their children’s lies. Parents’ truth bias may result in parents being less doubtable of their children, allowing them to successfully cheat (欺骗) them.”
Most children are thought to start lying as early as two years old but start telling more believable lies at around the age of four years old. Learning how to lie is considered as a key part of cognitive (认知的) and social development in children. But many parents are shocked when their children start lying to them. In their study, Dr Evans and her colleagues filmed 108 children aged between 8 and 16 as they performed a test after being asked not to look at the answers. They were then asked afterwards if they had looked, with 50 truthfully denying (否认) looking, 49 lying about looking and 9 admitting (承认) to looking.
Videos of those denying looking were then shown to 152 parents of children aged 8 to 16, 80 of whom had children who had taken part in the test. The researchers found that the parents were less able to discover lies told by their own children than by other people’s children.
【1】What does the underlined word “impair” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Show. B.Harm. C.Realize. D.Develop.
【2】When lying to their parents, children can’t be easily found because ________.
A.their parents aren’t prepared for the lies
B.their parents can’t notice any of their lies
C.they are very good at telling lies
D.they know how to lie to their parents
【3】What does Dr. Evans want to find about children’s lying?
A.What makes parents lose trust in their children.
B.What causes children to tell lies to their parents.
C.What makes parents fail to see their children’s lies.
D.What affects children’s relations with their parents.
【4】What can be inferred from Dr. Evans’s study in the last two paragraphs?
A.Parents prefer to protect their own children.
B.Lying is a part of children’s development.
C.Children aged 8 to 16 are very likely to tell lies.
D.Parents can easily discover lies told by children of others.
