plants for another reason: We need them because they are beautiful.
Imagine a world with no plants. Imagine no flowers with their sweet smells, their beautiful colors and
their lovely shapes. Imagine, when the wind blows, we are not able to hear the leaves in the trees or watch
the branches swing from side to side. Everywhere people need beautiful plants. That is why we have parks
full of trees and flowers. That is why people always like houses with room for some grass and a garden.
Do you talk to your plants? Do you give them love and take good care of them? Peter Tompkins and
Christopher Bird, writers of a book called THE SECRET LIFE OF PLANTS, tell of an experiment in which
two seeds were planted in different places. While the plants were growing, one plant was given love and
hopeful ideas. After six months, the beloved plant was bigger. Under the earth it had more and longer roots;
above the earth, it had a thicker stem and more leaves.
B. of different kinds
C. both given love and taken good care of
D. grown in the same place
B. one plant had longer roots than the other
C. one plant had longer roots; the other plant had a thicker stem
D. one plant had a thicker stem; the other plant had more leaves
B. can take care of each other
C. should be grown in different places
D. need love and care
B. we should talk to plants and give them love
C. we should grow as many plants as possible
D. plants need plenty of water, sunshine and fertilizer

举一反三
with him, though you"re not tired.
This phenomenon confused scientists for years until a recent study found that people tend to sympathize
with fellow humans. Supporting this claim was the discovery that those children who were unable to form
normal emotional ties with others did not experience contagions (有感染力的) yawning, which showed that
humans communicate regularly without words.
Hogo Critchley, a neuroscientist, has conducted an experiment recently, which will prove that happiness
and sadness can spread like the common cold. According to Critchley, our mind and body are in constant
exchange about how we"re feeling. "Emotions are closely linked with states of internal (内部的) responses,"
he explained. "There are also more visible changes in our gesture and facial expressions. When we"re in a
group, these signals can spread to another person. For example, there"re the obvious tendency to smile when
smiled at and there are less obvious changes that reflect emotions of surprise, anger or sadness such as a
change in our heart rate and blood pressure."
Hugo Critchley further explained, "Our bodies synchronise and when we like the other Person, we even
copy his behaviour. Next time you chat with a friend, take note of how you"re sitting-it"s pretty likely that
you will be the same. Scientists believe it"s our way of telling each other that you"re parents. Through body
language, humans give each other very subtle (微妙的) but clear signals that show emotions."
So, what lessons can we learn from this? "spend time with happy people-otherwise your health could
suffer," said Critchley. "When we"re sad, our body goes into fight or flight mode. But when we"re happy, our
body works normally and we feel relaxed and positive. So we look bright, our skin glows, we feel healthy and
it affects everyone around us."
B. we yawn more frequently when we have a cold
C. emotions are connected with states of internal responses
D. the change of blood pressure is not linked with the change of emotions
B. change rapidly
C. relax temporarily
D. respond accordingly
B. anger is less contagious than friendliness
C. surprise is more contagious than smile
D. surprise is the most contagious among emotions
B. Children like copying the actions of the fellow humans.
C. Scientists are still confused about contagious yawning.
D. People tend to communicate more with body language.
(探险者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed
their surprise to the "moon people" they met. In turn, the "moon people" expressed their surprise. "Why," they
asked, "are you traveling to outer space when you don"t even use your inner space?"
H.G.Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon.
People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon.However, the question that the "moon
people" asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.
Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such
as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The "Chunnel", a tunnel (隧道)
connecting England and France, is now completed.
But what about underground cities? Japan"s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground
systems, called "Alice Cities". The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using
underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome (太阳能穹顶) would cover the
whole city.
Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to
use the earth"s space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness.
H.G. Wells" "moon people" would agree. Would you?
B. understood their language
C. lived in so many underground cities
D. were ahead of them in space technology
B. Using the earth"s inner space.
C. Meeting the "moon people" again.
D. Traveling to outer space.
B. Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.
C. Gardens, car parks, power stations.
D. Tunnels, gardens, offices.
B. Space travel with H.G. Wells
C. Enjoy living underground
D. Building down, not up
only handsets have become out of date. Today"s do-it-all mobiles have a lot in common with the computer.
The only difference may be that they fit in your pocket and you pay by the minute to use them. Some of the
things a cell phone can do for you will be available this year:
Surf at speed
Cell phones that let you use the Web have been around for years. So, what"s new? Well, faster third-
generation (3G) networks that let you surf at anywhere. This then allows a carrier to send video, music, and
games to your phone. Possible choices are from LG Electronics VX 8000 and Motorola V1150.
Listen as you go
The problem with most cell phone MP3 players is that they hold only a handful of songs. But, that"s about
to change. Sony Ericsson"s new W800i can hold around 150 songs in its 500 MB memory. And Samsung"s
SPH-V5400 even comes with a 1.5 GB hard drive. Mobile phones may eventually replace mini-MP3 players,
especially for teens.
Say cheese
Camera cell phones are not new either. But, most of them have limitations: around 1-megapixel (百万像
素). But new technology has made 2-megapixel units more common, and 3-megapixel units are showing up
soon. Some 2-megapixel models, like Sony Ericsson"s K750i, offer limited zoom and focus controls. Others,
like LG"s recent A7110, can even capture 30 minutes of full-motion video.
Portable TV
You say you like"watching TV"? That"s what Samsung MM-A700 wants to give you. The new model lets
users watch popular TV programmes-for a fee. Other choices are Nokia"s 6620, Sanyo"s MM7400 and NEC"s
N940. The NEC model lets you watch public TV-no fee.
The above are just a handful of what you"ll see in the coming months. Further down the road, your mobile
phone may play a host of other roles, such as mobile credit card, position locator... So what is there that a cell
phone can"t do?
B. Sony Ericsson"s W800i and Samsung"s SPH-V5400.
C. Sony Ericsson"s W800i and NEC"s N940.
D. Sanyo"s MM7400 and NEC"s N940.
B. It can capture 30 minutes of full-motion video.
C. It can hold as many as 150 songs.
D. It lets you watch public TV for free.
B. Camera cellphones of 3-megapixel units will appear soon.
C. It is certain that a cellphone can do anything in the near future.
D. Today"s do-it-all mobiles have nothing in common with the computer.
B. an advertisement trying to persuade you to buy new cellphones
C. a science fiction trying to attract readers" attention
D. a survey to find the development of cellphones
the chemicals in its blood stream. If the danger continues, it will defend itself, or it will run away as fast
as possible. Something like this also happens to people.
When we are excited, angry, scared or aroused by other emotions, our bodies go through many physical
changes, all of which make us more alert and ready to react. We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run.
Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them
take over, we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger-or hit somebody-and regretted it
later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then
wished later you had kept your mouth shut? It isn"t always wise to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it"s smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep the feelings of anger,
sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illnesses can develop,
and you can feel disturbed badly inside. It can actual1y be bad for your health.
Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don"t just go away. It"s as if you bought some bananas and stuck
them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them, but before long you"d smell them. And if you opened
the cupboard, chances are that you"d see little fruit flies hovering all over them. They"d be rotten.
You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard. You can hide them and you can
pretend they don"t exist, but they"ll still be around. And at last you"ll have to deal with them, just like those
bananas.
B. people can"t control their feelings
C. people"s physical reactions are like those of animals in a way
D. our bodies go through many physical changes in certain situations
B. we sometimes can"t control our feelings
C. we always do something wrong to other people
D. we don"t pay attention to our physical changes
B. we should treat emotions like bananas in a cupboard
C. feelings will gradually disappear when we hold them in
D. it"s good for our health to keep pleasant feelings
B. Feelings and Bananas
C. Deal with Feelings Wisely
D. Express Feelings Freely
you help yourself learn a new language, such as English? There are several ways to make learning English a
little easier and more interesting.
The first step is to feel positive about learning English. If you believe that you can learn, you will learn. Be
patient. You do not have to understand everything all at once. It is natural to make mistakes when you learn
something new. We can learn from our mistakes. In other words, do not worry about taking risks.
The second step is to practice your English. For example, write a journal, or diary, every day. You will get
used to writing in English, and you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in English. After several weeks,
you will see that your writing is improving. In addition, you must speak English every day. You can practice
with your classmates outside class. You will all make mistakes, but gradually you will become comfortable
communicating in English.
The third step is to keep a record of your language learning. You can write this in your journal. After each
class, think about what you did. Did you answer a question correctly? Did you understand something the
teacher explained? Perhaps the lesson was difficult, but you tried to understand it. Write these accomplishments
(成就) in your journal.
You must be positive about learning English and believe that you can do it. It is important to practice every
day and make a record of your achievements. You will enjoy learning English, and you will feel more
confidence in yourself.
B. you can understand everything all at once
C. if you make mistakes, you can learn from your mistakes
D. if you believe you can learn, you will learn
