Can a pineapple eat you? Now, don’t be afraid. This question isn’t about a sentient pineapple with a taste for humans. However, even without sentience, the pineapple can eat a little bit of you.
When you eat something your stomach breaks down its large pieces into smaller ones. In the same way, pineapple pineapples can “eat” you by breaking down the pieces that make up the cells (细胞) in your body.
Pineapples have certain enzymes (酶) that can break down proteins (蛋白质). To understand this better, you can imagine a pearl necklace (珍珠项链). Many smaller pieces—the pearls—come together to form the long necklace of a protein. You can cut a necklace with a pair of scissors. In the same way, the enzymes in pineapples “cut up” proteins.
All living things are made up of proteins. They are an important part of the cells in your body. If an enzyme can break down a protein, it has the ability to break cells. When you eat a pineapple, the enzymes in it will break the cells in your mouth. This is why your mouth will hurt if you eat too many pineapples. But luckily, the cells in your mouth heal (愈合) fast. And after you have eaten the pineapple, the special enzymes will end up getting broken down by your stomach. It won’t eat you anymore.
___★___ In fact, the enzymes in young pineapples are stronger than those in fully-grown pineapples. Therefore, some scientists believe that they are created by the plant to stop animals from eating its unripe fruit. Once the fruit is fully-grown, its enzymes won’t hurt an animal’s mouth and the fruit will be okay to eat.
Another explanation is that the enzymes help the plant to grow. They play an important role in sending messages to the cells of the plant. These messages tell the cells when to start and stop growing. Without these enzymes, the seed may not be able to properly develop.
36. Which of the following may play a key role in eating you while you have pineapples?
A. A pair of scissors. B. A group of cells.
C. A kind of enzyme. D. A kind of protein.
37. How does the writer explain the fact of enzymes in Paragraph 3?
A. By listing numbers. B. By raising a question.
C. By telling a story. D. By giving an example.
38. Which of the following can be put in _★_ ?
A. Why do pineapples have these enzymes?
B. Do enzymes help pineapples to grow?
C. How long does it take the cells in your mouth to heal?
D. Are there other fruits that can eat you?
39. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “unripe”?
A. Not clean enough. B. Not fully grown.
C. Not very delicious. D. Not quite fresh.
40. What’s the main purpose of the text?
A. To offer a wide choice of healthy fruits.
B. To introduce different kinds of enzymes.
C. To tell some useful facts about pineapples.
D. To explain why we should avoid eating pineapples.

From their very first night together, Zebby has slept next to her. When he hears noises in the dark, he jumps up.“He has become my night watch cat,” Moss said. “Sometimes he runs around the room until I wake up.”
After a few weeks, Moss noticed that whenever her phone rang or someone knocked at the door, Zebby would tap (轻轻地敲) her. Later, Zebby started collecting Moss’s mails. Now,whenever he hears the mailbox being opened, he runs towards it, carries the mail in his mouth and drops it at Moss’s feet.
In July 2023, Zebby was named Britain’s National Cat of the Year by a cat charity in the U. K. Moss was surprised at the news, Zebby beat out about 3,000 other cats because of the many ways he helps Moss.

Can a pineapple eat you? Now, don’t be afraid. This question isn’t about a sentient pineapple with a taste for humans. However, even without sentience, the pineapple can eat a little bit of you.
When you eat something, your stomach breaks down its large pieces into smaller ones. In the same way, pineapple pineapples can “eat” you by breaking down the pieces that make up the cells (细胞) in your body.
Pineapples have certain enzymes (酶) that can break down proteins (蛋白质). To understand this better, you can imagine a pearl necklace (珍珠项链). Many smaller pieces—the pearls—come together to form the long necklace of a protein. You can cut a necklace with a pair of scissors. In the same way, the enzymes in pineapples “cut up” proteins.
All living things are made up of proteins. They are an important part of the cells in your body. If an enzyme can break down a protein, it has the ability to break cells. When you eat a pineapple, the enzymes in it will break the cells in your mouth. This is why your mouth will hurt if you eat too many pineapples. But luckily, the cells in your mouth heal (愈合) fast. And after you have eaten the pineapple, the special enzymes will end up getting broken down by your stomach. It won’t eat you anymore.
___★___ In fact, the enzymes in young pineapples are stronger than those in fully-grown pineapples. Therefore, some scientists believe that they are created by the plant to stop animals from eating its unripe fruit. Once the fruit is fully-grown, its enzymes won’t hurt an animal’s mouth and the fruit will be okay to eat.
Another explanation is that the enzymes help the plant to grow. They play an important role in sending messages to the cells of the plant. These messages tell the cells when to start and stop growing. Without these enzymes, the seed may not be able to properly develop.
36. Which of the following may play a key role in eating you while you have pineapples?
A. A pair of scissors. B. A group of cells.
C. A kind of enzyme. D. A kind of protein.
37. How does the writer explain the fact of enzymes in Paragraph 3?
A. By listing numbers. B. By raising a question.
C. By telling a story. D. By giving an example.
38. Which of the following can be put in _★_ ?
A. Why do pineapples have these enzymes?
B. Do enzymes help pineapples to grow?
C. How long does it take the cells in your mouth to heal?
D. Are there other fruits that can eat you?
39. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “unripe”?
A. Not clean enough. B. Not fully grown.
C. Not very delicious. D. Not quite fresh.
40. What’s the main purpose of the text?
A. To offer a wide choice of healthy fruits.
B. To introduce different kinds of enzymes.
C. To tell some useful facts about pineapples.
D. To explain why we should avoid eating pineapples.
【答案】36. C 37. D 38. A 39. B 40. C

【37题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“You can imagine a pearl necklace (珍珠项链). Many smaller pieces—the pearls—come together to form the long necklace of a protein. You can cut a necklace with a pair of scissors. In the same way, the enzymes in pineapples ‘cut up’ proteins.”可知,作者通过举珍珠项链的例子来解释菠萝中的酶,故选D。
【38题详解】
推理判断题。根据后文“In fact, the enzymes in young pineapples are stronger than those in fully-grown pineapples. Therefore, some scientists believe that they are created by the plant to stop animals from eating its unripe fruit.”可知,后文围绕菠萝中酶在未成熟和成熟阶段的不同情况展开,此处是提出与菠萝中酶相关的问题,A选项“为什么菠萝有这些酶?”符合语境,故选A。
【39题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Once the fruit is fully-grown, its enzymes won’t hurt an animal’s mouth and the fruit will be okay to eat.”可知,前面说的是阻止动物吃未成熟的果实,unripe意为“未完全成熟的”,Not fully grown.符合,故选B。
【40题详解】
主旨大意题。文章围绕菠萝中的酶展开,讲述其能分解蛋白质、对口腔细胞的影响,以及在菠萝未成熟和成熟阶段的作用等内容。故C选项“讲述一些关于菠萝的有用事实。”符合文章主旨,故选C。
