Then the god pulled(拔) the tree out and planted it upside down (颠倒) to make sure it stayed in one place. What’s the tree? It’s the baobab tree, also called the monkey bread tree, the bottle tree or others. The baobab tree is a strange-looking tree that grows in Africa and Australia. Just like its name “the bottle tree”, itlooks like a large bottle. Some grow as tall as a 16-floor building. During the dry season, these trees are standing there without leaves, and look like trunks (树干) sticking up in the air. But when the rainy season comes, leaves appear and then flowers come out. Later, the flowers can turn into fruit. The baobab is called “the tree of life”, because it can live for more than 1,000 years. In the dry land, the baobab can absorb and hold 1,000 gallons of water. Thirsty people can drink the water stored in the tree. The fruit, baobab fruit, is good to eat. Baobab leaves are a kind of medicine (药) . People can use the bark (树皮) to make paper or cloth. When a baobab gets old, its trunk becomes hollow. An old tree can hold many people. The local people often build their houses inside these trunks. It is such a useful tree that some people can hardly live without it. 1. How does the writer begin the text? A. By showing a story. B. By asking a question. C. By giving an example. 2. Which of the following pictures is the baobab in the dry season? 3. What does the underlined word “hollow” mean in Paragraph 3? A. 脏的 B. 干的 C.空的 4. Which of the following is NOT true? A.
