The Secret Language of Plants
1Talking plants have long been a thing of myths① and legends②.Many cultures have stories of talking trees that give advice as well as③ warnings to people.Alexander the Great④ and Marco Polo were said to have visited such a tree in IndiA.[1]And in some modern stories,such as the film Avatar,trees can communicate with animals and people.

This fungal network links the roots of different plants to each other.Using the wood wide web,[7]plants can share information and even food with each other. For example,some pine trees can send food to smaller pine trees to help them grow.But just like our own Internet,the wood wide web has its own version㉑ of“cybercrime㉒”.Plants can steal food from each other,or spread poisons to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a“firewall”to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web.

译文参考
植物的秘密语言
会说话的植物长久以来都存在于神话和传说当中。许多文化里都有会说话的树给人们警告和建议的故事。据说,亚历山大大帝和马可·波罗曾在印度拜访过这样一棵树。在一些现代故事中,像电影《阿凡达》,树木可以与动物和人交流。
人们长久以来都认为,会说话的植物存在于幻想里,不过新的研究揭示了惊人的发现:植物还是可以进行交流的。
植物使用化学物质相互交流已久为人知。当某种植物受到昆虫侵害的时候就会这样做,比如豆类植物。受侵害的植物从正被啃食的叶子中释放出微量的化学物质,就像是发出警告或者呼救:“我被攻击了!”另一豆类植物察觉到旁边受伤植物释放出的化学物质时,便开始释放自身不同的化学物质。其中有些化学物质能够驱赶昆虫,有些则会吸引昆虫——黄蜂!黄蜂会杀死正在吃豆类植物的昆虫。科学家希望能够更多地了解这种植物预警系统,这样我们就可以使用这种植物预警系统以在种植作物的过程中不再使用杀虫剂。
更令人惊讶的是,植物也会用声音交流。人类无法听到,但是植物确实在发出声音。有些植物用根发出响声,玉米和辣椒就是如此。它们还会“倾听”来自其他植物的声音。辣椒可以分辨出邻近的植物是有益的还是不友好的。在没有足够的水分时,一些树会发出咔嗒声,这表明干旱即将来临。
最令人惊讶的是,植物之间存在令人惊叹的通信系统,几乎可以连接森林中的每一株植物。科学家称该系统为“树联网”。它在某种程度上与我们使用的互联网相似。互联网是由电缆和卫星连接起来的全球计算机网络,而树联网是由真菌在地下连接。这个真菌网络将不同植物的根系相互连接了起来。通过树联网,植物可以相互分享信息,甚至于食物。例如,一些松树能够给小松树输送食物,帮助它们生长。不过就像我们的互联网一样,树联网也有自己版本的“网络犯罪”。植物间会互相窃取食物,或者传播毒素以攻击其他植物。也许有一天,科学家将学会如何创建“防火墙”来帮助阻止树联网内的攻击。
科学家对于植物互相交流的秘密方式的认识与日俱增。谁知道呢?也许有一天,我们对植物交流有了足够的了解,能够与它们展开“交谈”。

(2024·广东深圳高级中学期中)
Many gardeners believe that“talking”to their plants helps them grow—it turns out that they may not be crazy at all. According to the scientists from the University of Exeter,plants may keep communicating with each other through a secret “unseen” language.
For their experiment,the scientists picked a cabbage plant that is known to send out a gas when its surface is cut. In order to get video evidence of the communication,they changed the cabbage gene by adding the luciferase(荧光素酶),which is what makes fireflies(萤火虫)glow in the dark.
When the changed cabbage plant was in full bloom,they cut a leaf off with a pair of scissors,and almost immediately,thanks to the luciferase,they could see the plant sending out“methyl jasmonate(茉莉酸甲酯)”.
While this was a known fact,what was surprising was the fact that the minute this gas began to be released,the nearby cabbage plants seemed to detect some kind of danger and started to send out a gas that they normally have to keep enemies like caterpillars(毛虫)away.
What the scientists are not sure is whether the plants are trying to warn the other leaves or the near plants of the danger—something that will require further research. However,the team,which is led by Professor Nick Smirnoff,is quite excited about the findings because this is the first time it has been proved that plants do not live a passive life,but actually move,sense and even communicate with each other.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。科学家们通过实验发现,植物之间可能在通过一种看不见的语言进行交流。
1.What does the underlined word“they”in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Gardeners. B.Plants.
C.Scientists. D.Fireflies.
词义猜测题。根据指代关系和画线词所在句“Many gardeners believe that‘talking’to their plants helps them grow—it turns out that they may not be crazy at all.”可推知,they指代上文中的“gardeners”。
√
2.Which of the following statements isn't TRUE of the passage when the plant sent out“methyl jasmonate”?
A.The nearby cabbage plants seemed to sense some kind of danger.
B.The nearby cabbage plants started to send out a gas.
C.The nearby cabbage plants tried to warn the near plants.
D.The nearby cabbage plants communicated through a secret language.
√
细节理解题。根据第五段中“What the scientists are not sure is whether the plants are trying to warn the other leaves or the near plants of the danger—something that will require further research.”可知,科学家们不确定的是,这些植物是否在试图警告其他叶子或附近的植物有危险——这需要进一步的研究。因此,“邻近的卷心菜植物试图警告附近的植物。”是不准确的表述。故选C。
3.What can we learn from the experiment?
A.Plants don't live a passive life.
B.Plants can feel pain when they are cut.
C.Plants can warn the other leaves of danger.
D.Plants can't communicate with each other.
细节理解题。根据第五段中“this is the first time it has been proved that plants do not live a passive life,but actually move,sense and even communicate with each other”可知,这是第一次证明植物不是被动地生活,而是真正地移动、感知甚至相互交流。故选A。
√
4.From which of the following is the text probably taken?
A.A health magazine.
B.A biology magazine.
C.A medical research paper.
D.A travel brochure.
√
文章出处题。通读全文,结合第一段中“According to the scientists from the University of Exeter,plants may keep communicating with each other through a secret ‘unseen’ language.”和最后一段中“this is the first time it has been proved that plants do not live a passive life,but actually move,sense and even communicate with each other”可知,文章介绍了科学家们发现植物之间可能在通过一种“看不见的”语言进行交流,植物并不是被动地生活,它们能感知和交流。由此推知,本文很可能选自生物学杂志。

(2024·广东省江门市高二上期中)
Scientists, conservation organizations and government trying to stop the trend of extinction (灭绝) often focus on protected areas such as national parks and wildlife preserves. But with as many as million species(物种) at risk, this plan of action may not be enough to conserve wildlife.
Slowing the mass extinction that now appears to be underway will require more creative means of coexisting alongside wild plants and animals. A new study indicates the effectiveness of some such approaches by examining some lands managed by indigenous groups.
“We show really strongly that, from a biodiversity standpoint in terms of species richness,indigenous-managed lands are at least comparable to protected areas,” says biologist Richard Schuster of Carleton University. And in some places, they are better than parks and preserves—even though indigenous communities may use their lands' resources by hunting or searching for food.
Schuster and his team analyzed more than 15,000 areas in Australia, Brazil and CanadA. They found that the total diversity of wildlife was highest on lands either managed or co-managed by indigenous groups, while randomly selected areas with no formal protection were the least biodiverse. For threatened species in particular, indigenous lands scored slightly higher than protected lands on overall species richness in Brazil and Canada, as well as higher for threatened animals in AustraliA.
Each country has a different geography, climate and history. Yet remarkably, Schuster says, the best indicator for species diversity is whether a given area was managed by an indigenous community. He pointed out that practices such as sustainable(可持续的) hunting, fishing and searching, as well as burning, are more likely to occur in such areas. Don Hankins,an ecologist at California State University,agrees.“ there's probably going to be more of a connection to the land,” he says,“ and a use of the land for the things that are there, compared to a national park.”
“It's really important to listen to the people who live on the land and have them drive the stewardship efforts going forward,”Schuster says,adding that partnering with indigenous communities may enable the world' s countries to better meet a wide range of conservation goals:“ We really need all the help we can get as a global community to prevent species extinction that we're facing right now.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了在阻止物种的灭绝的方法中,国家公园和野生动物保护区对物种的保护远不如当地组织的管理保护。
5.What does the underlined word “indigenous” probably mean in Paragraph 2?
A.Social. B.Native.
C.Protected. D.Threatened.
词义猜测题。根据第一段内容可知,这种国家公园和野生保护区有不足之处。第二段“A new study indicates the effectiveness of some such approaches by examining some lands managed by indigenous groups.” 可知,这个管理是与前面“national parks and wildlife preserves”国家管理是不同的,是相对的。结合第三段中的“even though indigenous communities may use their lands' resources...”即使“indigenous”社区利用他们自己的土地。由此可推断出与国家保护区不同的是当地的组织管理。分析选项可知,native意为“当地的,本地的,土著的”与indigenous意思一致,故选B。
√
6.What did Richard Schuster find in his study?
A.National parks are even higher in species diversity.
B.Indigenous communities overhunted on their lands.

1.答案:which
2.答案:produced
3.答案:areas
考查定语从句。先行词calls为物,在非限制性定语从句中作主语,故填which。
考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,produce和它所修饰的词之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词作后置定语,故填produced。
考查名词的单复数。前面有one of,所以用名词复数,表示“……之一”。故填areas。
4.答案:to
5.答案:highly
6.答案:be taught
考查介词。固定搭配be home to“……的家园”,故填to。
考查词性转换。修饰形容词social,所以用副词作状语,故填highly。
考查动词的语态。分析句子可知,teach是谓语动词,teach和主语They(指代Chimpanzees)之间是被动关系,所以用含情态动词的被动语态,故填be taught。
7.答案:have known
8.答案:deeper
9.答案:writer
考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据“since a long time”可知,主句用现在完成时态,主语是复数,故填have known。
考查形容词的比较级。分析句子可知,用形容词作定语,由下文的than可知,用比较级,故填deeper。
考查词性转换。根据空前的the和空后的of可知,空处用名词形式,故填writer。
考查冠词。形容词最高级前面加定冠词,故填the。
10.答案:the
