This kind of plant is very tall. How do we make sugar from sugar cane? First, farmers cut the top of the plant and put part of the plant in the earth. This will grow into more sugar cane. Next, workers make the sugar cane into big machines. One machine washes the cane. One machine cuts and turns the cane over and over. And one machine gets the sweet juice from the cane. Then, workers make the juice hot and it becomes thick (浓稠的). The thick juice is called syrup (糖浆). Workers put the syrup into the crystallization tank (结晶罐). It turns to crystals (晶体). We need one more machine to dry the crystals. Now we have sugar. Sugar can be brown or white. It can also be in different sizes. Then the sugar can go to the sweet factory (工厂). There workers use it to make sweets. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。（每小题答案不超过六个单词） 1．Where do most sugar come from? 2．What is the thick juice called? 3．How many machines do workers need to make sugar? 4．Is sugar in the same size? 5．Why do people send the sugar to the sweet factory? 【答案】1．Sugar cane 2．Syrup 3．Four/4 4．No/No, it isn’t 5．To make sweets 【导语】本文介绍了如何利用甘蔗制作糖的过程。 1．根据“Most sugar comes from sugar cane (甘蔗).”可知，大部分糖都来自甘蔗，故填Sugar cane。 2．根据“The thick juice is called syrup (糖浆).”可知，这种浓稠的果汁叫做糖浆，故填Syrup。 3．根据“One machine washes the cane.

Trees are useful to man in three important ways. The first important way is that they provide (提供) man with food, wood and the other products. Trees provide not only man with food, but also many animals with food. Without trees many animals could not live on the earth. It’s not easy for man to live on the earth, either. The second important way is that trees give us shade (阴凉). On a hot summer day, people are eager (渴望) to have a rest under the tree after they have a long walk. You can imagine how important the shade of a tree is to man and animals. The third important way is that trees help to prevent droughts and floods (防止干旱和洪水). However, in many parts of the world, man hasn’t realized the third way. They were cutting trees down in large numbers. In the end they find that they have lost the best friends they had. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 1．How many important ways are trees useful to man? 2．Trees only provide man with food, don’t they? 3．On a hot summer day, what do trees give us? 4．What does the underlined word “they” means？ 5．What’s the best title of the passage? 【答案】1．Three ways. 2．No, they don’t. 3．They give us shade in a hot summer. 4．It means “man”. 5．The Importance of the Trees 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，作者从三个方面阐述了树木的重要性。 1．根据原文“Trees are useful to man in three important ways”可知，树木在三个方面给人类提供资源。故填Three ways. 2．根据原文“The first important way is that they provide (提供) man with food, wood and the other products”可知，树木给人类提供的不仅仅是食物，还有其他资源。故填No, they don’t. 3．根据原文“The second important way is that trees give us shade (阴凉). On a hot summer day, people are eager (渴望) to have a rest under the tree after they have a long walk. You can imagine how important the shade of a tree is to man and animals.”可知，人们在炎热的夏天需要树木给他们提供阴凉的树荫。故填They give us shade in a hot summer. 4．根据原文“In the end they find that they have lost the best friends they had”可知，原文中画线“they”指代的是人们。故填It means “man”. 5．根据原文“The first important way is that they provide (提供) man with food, wood and the other products”可知，树木对人类非常重要，故本文说的是树木的重要性。故填The Importance of the Trees。 Trees are one of the oldest “citizens”(居民) of our Earth. They keep our air clean, reduce(减少) noise pollution, improve water quality and provide food and building materials. Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At 1 to 3 years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns(刺) to warn animals not to go near. Most young trees have large, deep green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food and energy. When trees are 4 years old, they begin to grow every rapidly and become strong enough to face challenges later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit. It is not until the tree is 20 to 25 years old that it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. Not only does the adult tree give us shade, oxygen and natural beauty; it is also a great place for a tree house, or a place for us to nap, read a book, listen to music or sip tea. If the adult tree receives proper care, it will continue to live healthily for many years. Gradually(渐渐地), trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow or part of it becomes dead, it provides a home to small animals and is a source of food for many other animals. In many ways, the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience. When looking at the life of a tree, we learn that each period of life brings its own form of joy and challenge. Enjoy every minute of it and take care of the trees. 1．How do young trees protect themselves? 2．Do all young trees have large, deep green leaves? 3．When do trees grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit? 4．Trees are important in nature when they grow older, aren’t they? 5．What does the writer suggest us do with trees? 【答案】1．They grow thorns. 2．No, they don’t. 3．At the age of 15. 4．Yes, they are. 5．We should enjoy every minute of it and take care of the trees. 【导语】本文主要介绍了树木从小到大的生长过程以及对人类的贡献。 1．根据“For example, many trees grow thorns(刺) to warn animals not to go near.”可知，许多树长荆棘来保护自己，故填They grow thorns. 2．根据“Most young trees have large, deep green leaves ”可知，大多数幼树都有深绿色的大叶子，而不是所有。故填No, they don’t. 3．根据“At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit.”可知，在15岁的时候，树木变成了年轻的成年人。它们生长得更慢，开始开花结果。故填At the age of 15. 4．根据“Gradually（渐渐地）, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. ”可知，树木长大后在自然界中还是很重要，故填Yes, they are. 5．根据“Enjoy every minute of it and take care of the trees.”可知，我们应该享受它的每一分钟，爱护树木。故填We should enjoy every minute of it and take care of the trees. 进阶拓展训练7篇 根据短文内容回答下列问题。 A cactus (仙人掌) stood all alone in the desert. It sighed,“I can’t offer shade or juicy fruit to any passing travelers. I can’t see that I have any use for others. I wish I could do something useful.” By day, birds circled high over its head. “What can I do for you?” the cactus called. The birds flew away. At night, the moon moved in the sky, looking at it coldly. A lizard (蜥蜴) passed by, leaving a little trail (痕迹) in the sand with its tail. What can I do for you? the cactus called. “You?” the lizard laughed. “You can’t do anything! The birds circle overhead, leaving beautiful forms for us all to admire. The moon hangs high like a lantern at night, so we can see our way home. Even I have something to do. I decorate the desert with these beautiful trails as I pull my tail along. But you can do nothing.” As time went on, the cactus grew old, and it knew that its time was short. It cried out, “Forgive me! I have tried, but I failed to find something to do.” But just then, a beautiful flower opened from the cactus’ head like a crown. The desert had never seen such a flower before.

Maybe not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big, and they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap (捕蝇草). The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses (压) the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly. Plants are living things that have leaves and roots and grow in earth. Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen (氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let’s hope that some of the bigger plants don’t get the same idea! 1．Is the Venus flytrap a plant or an animal? 2．What’s inside the leaves of the plant? 3．Where do most plants get what they need? 4．What do you think of the flytrap?

Because its leaves can open and close very quickly and it can eat flies. 5．根据“Let’s hope that some of the bigger plants don’t get the same idea!”可知，作者希望更大的植物不要像捕蝇草一样吃肉，隐含的意思是希望它们不吃人。故填The writer hopes that some of the bigger plants don’t get the idea of eating people. Read the passage and answer the following questions according to it. (阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。) One of the most surprising trees in the world is known as the baobab. This kind of tree mainly grows in South Africa and Australia. Sometimes, it is hard to tell what the name of a tree is because they look like each other. But this is not a problem with the baobab. Its appearance is quite different, so people can’t mistake it for another tree. The baobab is very wide, people often enjoy the shade under it. One Australian baobab was so large that people were able to turn part of the tree into a small room. The tree itself was so strong and wide that it could hold a large group of people. The strongest tree in the world is over 1,835 years old now. People also call it the “giving tree”. The tree’s fruits are very delicious and a tasty treat in many African countries. The fruits are also very healthy and people make porridge and soft drinks from the fruits. Since the tree grows in dry environments, it has to store water. The tree soaks (浸泡) in water when it is wet. During dry seasons, the baobab tree can use the stored water. Some baobabs can store thousands of gallons (加仑) of water and people can get the water from the trees when they need it. Sadly, in recent years, the baobab trees are dying because of climate change. Scientists are trying hard to take action to save them. 1．Where does the baobab tree mainly grow? 2．Can people mistake the baobab for another tree? 3．How old is the strongest tree in the world? 4．When can the baobab tree use the stored water? 5．Do you agree to call the baobab tree the “giving tree”? Why or why not? 【答案】1．In South Africa and Australia./It mainly grows in South Africa and Australia. 2．No, they can’t. 3．Over 1, 835 years old./It’s over 1, 835 years old. 4．During dry seasons./It can use the stored water during dry seasons. 5． Yes, I do. Because it gives us healthy fruits/helps us store water/offer us the shade. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了猴面包树。 1．根据“This kind of tree mainly grows in South Africa and Australia.”可知，这种树大多长在南非和澳大利亚。故填In South Africa and Australia./It mainly grows in South Africa and Australia. 2．根据“Its appearance is quite different, so people can’t mistake it for another tree.”可知，猴面包树外观很特殊，因此不会被认错。故填No, they can’t. 3．根据“The strongest tree in the world is over 1,835 years old now.”可知，最老的一棵树已超过1835岁。故填Over 1, 835 years old./It’s over 1, 835 years old. 4．根据“During dry seasons, the baobab tree can use the stored water.”可知，在干旱季节，猴面包树可以使用储存的水。故填During dry seasons./It can use the stored water during dry seasons. 5．开放性试题，答案不唯一。参考答案：Yes, I do. Because it gives us healthy fruits/helps us store water/offer us the shade. An Experiment Report on Growing Potato Plants Things prepare： *a potato that has sprouts *a flower pot with soil *a camera to record progress Observation： Day Six Without much change in the past six days, I finally see some new progress on Buddy as it has grown taller. It’s exciting to see new life like this. I hope Buddy can grow faster. Day Eleven Buddy is getting larger! Three more new sprouts have grown around Buddy! Green leaves have grown on the new sprouts, but they have not fully grown yet. I guess I need to be a bit more patient. Day Thirteen Buddy continues to grow taller. The leaves on the new sprouts have grown a bit. I’m also excited to see more new sprouts that have grown from under the soil. Day Fifteen Finally, the leaves on the other sprouts are 3 cm tall. They’re so green. I hope they will soon grow into new potatoes. What I have learned It’s really interesting to grow potatoes. During these fifteen days, I have learned that growing potato plants needs plenty of water. If soil is dry, the potato will fail to grow. I have also learned that the temperature needs to be right. If it is too cold it won’t grow. I feel that growing plants is just like trying to succeed with anything in life—it takes not only time, but also lots of efforts and patience. 1．When do the potato plants start to change a lot? 2．How does the writer feel when she sees the progress of the plant? 3．What do you need to do to grow potato plants successfully? 4．How is growing plants similar to trying to succeed in life? 5．Do you think this is a good experiment for six-year-old kids?

But the fact is, having a plant on your desk can be good for your work as well. Mike Robinson, an engineer from Canada, has his own small company. One day, his wife told him to pick out some plants and put them on his workers’ desks. Robinson didn’t trust the idea at first. What could plants do? He thought they might just catch workers’ eyes. But he decided to try out the idea. First, Robinson bought 20 plants for his workers. He asked his workers to make a small note with their own names on it. Then, each worker put the note on the plant he chose and took it back to his own desk. To his surprise, Robinson found that his workers were working much harder and getting along (相处) much better than before. It could be because his workers made “friendship” with their plants. They took good care of their plants, and then, took good care of their work. Plants can help to have a relaxing feeling as well. What about you? Are there any plants in your classroom? If not, you might ask your teacher about this.

In the past, there were some ideas that plants had feelings and could act like people. But now, new studies show that plants are unusual in their own ways. Protecting (保护) themselves One way is how plants protect themselves. For example, when worms eat them, tomato plants can make their leaves taste bad with a special juice. This can even make the worms eat each other! Corn (玉米) plants can check what worms leave behind and then use that information to call a bee to hunt the worms. Plant communication Plants can also talk to each other. They mainly use special air. There are small openings on plants that look like little fish mouths under a microscope. These openings let out air with information. When a plant has problems, like being eaten or hurt by wind, it sends a “call”. Other plants close to it can get this “call” and get ready to stay safe. Plant memory Do plants have memory? One example is the “memory of winter”. Many fruit trees need to “remember” the number of cold days in winter to blossom in spring. They remember the cold and warm days to stop flowering too early during a warm time in winter. Now, when we look at plants in a park, we can think of them as little “strangers” (陌生人) with their own “stories” going on all around. We don’t know if they feel pain (疼痛), but they sense touch or respond to being eaten, even though they don’t feel pain like we do. 1．What can tomato plants do when worms eat them? 2．What do plants mainly use to talk to each other? 3．Why do plants remember the cold and warm days in winter? 4．What’s the main idea of the passage? 5．How do you usually look after the amazing plants around us? 【答案】1．Tomato plants can make their leaves taste bad with a special juice. 2．Plants mainly use special air to talk to each other. 3．To stop flowering too early during a warm time in winter. 4．The passage mainly talks about the amazing abilities of plants, including protecting themselves, communicating with each other, and having memory. 5．We should water them regularly, give them enough sunlight, and protect them from strong wind and cold weather. 【导语】本文主要描述了植物在不同方面的奇妙特性，比如自我保护、沟通和记忆，说明植物的多样性和独特性。 1．根据“when worms eat them, tomato plants can make their leaves taste bad with a special juice.”可知，番茄植物在被虫咬时会释放特殊汁液使叶子变苦，甚至让虫子互相残杀。故填Tomato plants can make their leaves taste bad with a special juice. 2．根据“They mainly use special air. There are small openings on plants that look like little fish mouths under a microscope.”可知，植物通过小孔释放带有信息的特殊空气进行交流，故填Plants mainly use special air to talk to each other. 3．根据“Many fruit trees need to ‘remember’ the number of cold days in winter to blossom in spring. They remember the cold and warm days to stop flowering too early during a warm time in winter.”可知，植物通过记忆冬季的冷暖天数，确保春季适时开花，避免暖冬过早开花。故填To stop flowering too early during a warm time in winter. 4．通读全文可知，文章通过自我保护、交流、记忆三个方面说明植物的独特能力，故填The passage mainly talks about the amazing abilities of plants, including protecting themselves, communicating with each other, and having memory. 5．开放性问题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：We should water them regularly, give them enough sunlight, and protect them from strong wind and cold weather. When we talk of things that grow on the ground and have green leaves (叶子), but there are plants that do not look like other plants. Some of these are called fungi (真菌). Fungi may appear almost everywhere. They usually grow in wet places where they can get food and water easily. Because fungi do not have green leaves to make food for themselves, and they must take their food from animals, other plants or water. Mushrooms (蘑菇) are the best-known fungi. There are many kinds of mushrooms. For example, we can find cauliflower mushrooms in forests from July to October. They can grow to be as heavy as fifty pounds. They grow at the foot of trees. Squirrels’ (松鼠的) bread is another kind of wild mushroom. These fungi look like small bread. Squirrels can easily eat them or take them to their holes to eat later. The mushrooms in food stores are grown carefully. People can eat them safely. People should never touch or taste wild mushrooms, because some of them are poisonous. Even less dangerous ones can still make a person feel bad. 1．What are most plants like? 2．Why do fungi usually grow in wet places? 3．When can we find cauliflower mushrooms in forests? 4．Which kind of mushrooms is safe according to the article? 5．What does the underlined word “poisonous” in Chinese? 【答案】1．They grow on the ground and have green leaves. 2．Because they can get food and water easily in wet places. 3．From July to October. 4．The mushrooms in food stores. 5．有毒的。 【导语】本文主要介绍了真菌可以无处不在，只要有水潮湿就可以生长。而且依靠别的动物或植物来制造粮食。蘑菇是最常见的真菌，有很多尺寸和形状。 1．根据“When we talk of things that grow on the ground and have green leaves”可知，大多数植物长在地上，有绿色的叶子。故填They grow on the ground and have green leaves. 2．根据“They usually grow in wet places where they can get food and water easily.”可知，因为他们可以在潮湿的地方很容易得到食物和水。故填Because they can get food and water easily in wet places. 3．根据“For example, we can find cauliflower mushrooms in forests from July to October.”可知，7月到10月，我们可以在森林中找到花椰菜蘑菇。故填From July to October. 4．根据“The mushrooms in food stores are grown carefully. People can eat them safely.”可知，食品店的蘑菇是安全的。故填The mushrooms in food stores. 5．根据“People should never touch or taste wild mushrooms, because some of them are poisonous. Even less dangerous ones can still make a person feel bad.”可知，人们不应该触摸或品尝野生蘑菇，因为其中一些是有毒的，因此划线单词的意思是“有毒的”。故填：有毒的。 能力综合实践6篇 回答问题。 A vegetable seed buyer put a video online.

They need a warm climate. If you plant the seeds outside and the weather is cold, place a glass over them. That will protect them from wind and cold and let them enjoy enough sunshine. You can also start the seeds in your home or a greenhouse. If you plant chilies inside, fill an 8 cm pot with soil. The pot should have holes at the bottom so water can run out. Drop some seeds in the pot and cover with some soil. Then cover the top of the pot with a see—through plastic (塑料的) bag. If the chilies start growing, take off the bag. If the plants are about 2 cm high, place each one in its own 8 cm pot. If you can see the rots from the bottom of the pot, transplant (移栽) each plant into a 12 cm pot. If the first flowers show, give the plants some fertilizer (肥料).

This kind of plant is very tall. How do we make sugar from sugar cane? First, farmers cut the top of the plant and put part of the plant in the earth. This will grow into more sugar cane. Next, workers make the sugar cane into big machines. One machine washes the cane. One machine cuts and turns the cane over and over. And one machine gets the sweet juice from the cane. Then, workers make the juice hot and it becomes thick (浓稠的). The thick juice is called syrup (糖浆). Workers put the syrup into the crystallization tank (结晶罐). It turns to crystals (晶体). We need one more machine to dry the crystals. Now we have sugar. Sugar can be brown or white. It can also be in different sizes. Then the sugar can go to the sweet factory (工厂). There workers use it to make sweets. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。（每小题答案不超过六个单词） 1．Where do most sugar come from? 2．What is the thick juice called? 3．How many machines do workers need to make sugar? 4．Is sugar in the same size? 5．Why do people send the sugar to the sweet factory? 阅读短文，根据短文内容用完整的句子回答下列问题。答案写在答卷的相应位置上。 Many people enjoy a cup of coffee at a coffee shop, but few people know the story of coffee and how people produce it. Research shows that 30% of the people in the world are coffee drinkers. They enjoy drinking coffee for its rich smell and taste. Many coffee trees grow in eastern Africa. People first grew coffee in the 15th century. Back then, most coffee came from the country Yemen. Before long, it was the most popular all over the Middle East. In the 17th century, people brought it to Europe and Europeans started bringing coffee to other parts of the world. In the 20th century, most of the world’s production came from Central and South America. Today, Brazil is the largest producer of coffee in the world. Most people know what a coffee bean (豆) looks like, but what about the plant? Coffee trees can grow up to 9 meters high. These trees have dark green leaves. The plant produces a fruit that is called a coffee cherry. When the coffee cherries are ready to pick, they are bright and red. Inside the fruits are the green coffee beans. People roast them and make them into delicious drinks. 1．How many people drink coffee in the world now? 2．When did people start to grow coffee? 3．Who brought coffee to other parts of the world? 4．Which country produces the most coffee now? 5．How high can a coffee tree be? For many, the beautiful Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang are wonderful places for travelling. But for Yang Zongzong, a plant lover, they’re places where he started his dream and made it come true. Yang Zongzong was born in Urumqi, Xinjiang in 1984. At the age of 6, he read a book about the plants in Xinjiang and became interested in plants. He kept studying them in primary school and middle school. In 1998, he found a special flower during a school trip to the Tianshan Mountains. It made him become the first person to find Neottia inayatii (小花鸟巢兰) in China. After he finished school, Yang set up a group to study plants. Many plant lovers joined him. Between April and September every year, Yang and his team go into the mountains to find special plants, take pictures of them and get specimens (标本) for study. It usually takes them around 15 days at a time. So far, they have found eight new kinds of plants. Yang and two other members of the group wrote a book named The Atlas of Wild Vascular Plants in Northern Xinjiang and it came out last year. The book describes about 1,600 kinds of plants in Xinjiang with over 5,000 beautiful pictures. “I hope this book can help people learn more about plants and bring out their love for nature,” Yang says. 1．How did Yang Zongzong become interested in plants? 2．When did Yang find Neottia inayatii? 3．What do Yang and his team usually do in the mountains? 4．How many pictures are there in their book? 5．What does Yang hope? Trees are useful to man in three important ways. The first important way is that they provide (提供) man with food, wood and the other products. Trees provide not only man with food, but also many animals with food. Without trees many animals could not live on the earth. It’s not easy for man to live on the earth, either. The second important way is that trees give us shade (阴凉). On a hot summer day, people are eager (渴望) to have a rest under the tree after they have a long walk. You can imagine how important the shade of a tree is to man and animals. The third important way is that trees help to prevent droughts and floods (防止干旱和洪水). However, in many parts of the world, man hasn’t realized the third way. They were cutting trees down in large numbers. In the end they find that they have lost the best friends they had. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 1．How many important ways are trees useful to man? 2．Trees only provide man with food, don’t they? 3．On a hot summer day, what do trees give us? 4．What does the underlined word “they” means？ 5．What’s the best title of the passage? Trees are one of the oldest “citizens”(居民) of our Earth. They keep our air clean, reduce(减少) noise pollution, improve water quality and provide food and building materials. Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At 1 to 3 years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns(刺) to warn animals not to go near. Most young trees have large, deep green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food and energy. When trees are 4 years old, they begin to grow every rapidly and become strong enough to face challenges later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit. It is not until the tree is 20 to 25 years old that it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. Not only does the adult tree give us shade, oxygen and natural beauty; it is also a great place for a tree house, or a place for us to nap, read a book, listen to music or sip tea. If the adult tree receives proper care, it will continue to live healthily for many years. Gradually(渐渐地), trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow or part of it becomes dead, it provides a home to small animals and is a source of food for many other animals. In many ways, the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience. When looking at the life of a tree, we learn that each period of life brings its own form of joy and challenge. Enjoy every minute of it and take care of the trees. 1．How do young trees protect themselves? 2．Do all young trees have large, deep green leaves? 3．When do trees grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit? 4．Trees are important in nature when they grow older, aren’t they? 5．What does the writer suggest us do with trees? 进阶拓展训练7篇 根据短文内容回答下列问题。 A cactus (仙人掌) stood all alone in the desert. It sighed,“I can’t offer shade or juicy fruit to any passing travelers. I can’t see that I have any use for others. I wish I could do something useful.” By day, birds circled high over its head. “What can I do for you?” the cactus called. The birds flew away. At night, the moon moved in the sky, looking at it coldly. A lizard (蜥蜴) passed by, leaving a little trail (痕迹) in the sand with its tail. What can I do for you? the cactus called. “You?” the lizard laughed. “You can’t do anything! The birds circle overhead, leaving beautiful forms for us all to admire. The moon hangs high like a lantern at night, so we can see our way home. Even I have something to do. I decorate the desert with these beautiful trails as I pull my tail along. But you can do nothing.” As time went on, the cactus grew old, and it knew that its time was short. It cried out, “Forgive me! I have tried, but I failed to find something to do.” But just then, a beautiful flower opened from the cactus’ head like a crown. The desert had never seen such a flower before. It brought a happiness to all those who passed by. The butterflies stopped to admire its beauty, and that night even the moon smiled when it rose to find such a beautiful flower.

One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap (捕蝇草). The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses (压) the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly. Plants are living things that have leaves and roots and grow in earth. Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen (氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let’s hope that some of the bigger plants don’t get the same idea! 1．Is the Venus flytrap a plant or an animal? 2．What’s inside the leaves of the plant? 3．Where do most plants get what they need? 4．What do you think of the flytrap? Why? 5．What does the writer mean by saying the underlined sentence? Read the passage and answer the following questions according to it. (阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。) One of the most surprising trees in the world is known as the baobab. This kind of tree mainly grows in South Africa and Australia. Sometimes, it is hard to tell what the name of a tree is because they look like each other. But this is not a problem with the baobab. Its appearance is quite different, so people can’t mistake it for another tree. The baobab is very wide, people often enjoy the shade under it. One Australian baobab was so large that people were able to turn part of the tree into a small room. The tree itself was so strong and wide that it could hold a large group of people. The strongest tree in the world is over 1,835 years old now. People also call it the “giving tree”. The tree’s fruits are very delicious and a tasty treat in many African countries. The fruits are also very healthy and people make porridge and soft drinks from the fruits. Since the tree grows in dry environments, it has to store water. The tree soaks (浸泡) in water when it is wet. During dry seasons, the baobab tree can use the stored water. Some baobabs can store thousands of gallons (加仑) of water and people can get the water from the trees when they need it. Sadly, in recent years, the baobab trees are dying because of climate change. Scientists are trying hard to take action to save them. 1．Where does the baobab tree mainly grow? 2．Can people mistake the baobab for another tree? 3．How old is the strongest tree in the world? 4．When can the baobab tree use the stored water? 5．Do you agree to call the baobab tree the “giving tree”? Why or why not? An Experiment Report on Growing Potato Plants Things prepare： *a potato that has sprouts *a flower pot with soil *a camera to record progress Observation： Day Six Without much change in the past six days, I finally see some new progress on Buddy as it has grown taller. It’s exciting to see new life like this. I hope Buddy can grow faster. Day Eleven Buddy is getting larger! Three more new sprouts have grown around Buddy! Green leaves have grown on the new sprouts, but they have not fully grown yet. I guess I need to be a bit more patient. Day Thirteen Buddy continues to grow taller. The leaves on the new sprouts have grown a bit. I’m also excited to see more new sprouts that have grown from under the soil. Day Fifteen Finally, the leaves on the other sprouts are 3 cm tall. They’re so green. I hope they will soon grow into new potatoes. What I have learned It’s really interesting to grow potatoes. During these fifteen days, I have learned that growing potato plants needs plenty of water. If soil is dry, the potato will fail to grow. I have also learned that the temperature needs to be right. If it is too cold it won’t grow. I feel that growing plants is just like trying to succeed with anything in life—it takes not only time, but also lots of efforts and patience. 1．When do the potato plants start to change a lot? 2．How does the writer feel when she sees the progress of the plant? 3．What do you need to do to grow potato plants successfully? 4．How is growing plants similar to trying to succeed in life? 5．Do you think this is a good experiment for six-year-old kids? Why or why not? What makes you work hard? Having your own dreams is useful. Good sleep also helps. But the fact is, having a plant on your desk can be good for your work as well. Mike Robinson, an engineer from Canada, has his own small company. One day, his wife told him to pick out some plants and put them on his workers’ desks. Robinson didn’t trust the idea at first. What could plants do? He thought they might just catch workers’ eyes. But he decided to try out the idea. First, Robinson bought 20 plants for his workers. He asked his workers to make a small note with their own names on it. Then, each worker put the note on the plant he chose and took it back to his own desk. To his surprise, Robinson found that his workers were working much harder and getting along (相处) much better than before. It could be because his workers made “friendship” with their plants. They took good care of their plants, and then, took good care of their work. Plants can help to have a relaxing feeling as well. What about you? Are there any plants in your classroom? If not, you might ask your teacher about this. Put some plants in your classroom. 1．Can good sleep make people work harder? 2．Who told Robinson the idea about plants? 3．What did Robinson think of plants at first? 4．How did the workers make “friendship” with their plants? 5．Why does the writer advise you to put plants in your classroom? 阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。 Plants: more than we thought Plants are amazing! In the past, there were some ideas that plants had feelings and could act like people. But now, new studies show that plants are unusual in their own ways. Protecting (保护) themselves One way is how plants protect themselves. For example, when worms eat them, tomato plants can make their leaves taste bad with a special juice. This can even make the worms eat each other! Corn (玉米) plants can check what worms leave behind and then use that information to call a bee to hunt the worms. Plant communication Plants can also talk to each other. They mainly use special air. There are small openings on plants that look like little fish mouths under a microscope. These openings let out air with information. When a plant has problems, like being eaten or hurt by wind, it sends a “call”. Other plants close to it can get this “call” and get ready to stay safe. Plant memory Do plants have memory? One example is the “memory of winter”. Many fruit trees need to “remember” the number of cold days in winter to blossom in spring. They remember the cold and warm days to stop flowering too early during a warm time in winter. Now, when we look at plants in a park, we can think of them as little “strangers” (陌生人) with their own “stories” going on all around. We don’t know if they feel pain (疼痛), but they sense touch or respond to being eaten, even though they don’t feel pain like we do. 1．What can tomato plants do when worms eat them? 2．What do plants mainly use to talk to each other? 3．Why do plants remember the cold and warm days in winter? 4．What’s the main idea of the passage? 5．How do you usually look after the amazing plants around us? When we talk of things that grow on the ground and have green leaves (叶子), but there are plants that do not look like other plants. Some of these are called fungi (真菌). Fungi may appear almost everywhere. They usually grow in wet places where they can get food and water easily. Because fungi do not have green leaves to make food for themselves, and they must take their food from animals, other plants or water. Mushrooms (蘑菇) are the best-known fungi. There are many kinds of mushrooms. For example, we can find cauliflower mushrooms in forests from July to October. They can grow to be as heavy as fifty pounds. They grow at the foot of trees. Squirrels’ (松鼠的) bread is another kind of wild mushroom. These fungi look like small bread. Squirrels can easily eat them or take them to their holes to eat later. The mushrooms in food stores are grown carefully. People can eat them safely. People should never touch or taste wild mushrooms, because some of them are poisonous. Even less dangerous ones can still make a person feel bad. 1．What are most plants like? 2．Why do fungi usually grow in wet places? 3．When can we find cauliflower mushrooms in forests? 4．Which kind of mushrooms is safe according to the article? 5．What does the underlined word “poisonous” in Chinese? 能力综合实践6篇 回答问题。 A vegetable seed buyer put a video online.
