They can’t talk. They can’t walk. And they can’t think like us. A new BBC documentary series, The Green Planet, gives us a new look at plants. It shows wonderful ways that plants behave. “The Green Planet tells the secret lives of plants in the same way The Blue Planet opened our eyes to the ocean,” editor Elle Hunt wrote in New Scientist. Plants compete against each other to live. Each kind of plant has its own way to protect and fight for itself. In rainforests, different kinds of plants race for sunlight. The forest floor is described as a “war field” in it as only two percent of the sunlight shines through it. Some plants spread their big leaves to reach the light. But they are caught up by a vine (藤本植物). Finally, they are both overtaken (超越) by a fast-growing tree. Plants also help each other and even communicate. In deserts, the roots of Euphrates poplars (胡杨树根) are connected. If a tree finds water, it will share it with other Euphrates poplars through the roots. Studies also show that some plants use fungus (真菌) as a way to “talk” to each other. It’s just like how Wi-Fi works. The documentary not only lets us be surprised by the plant world but also pushes us to understand that plants are important. “Plants are the basis (基础) of all life, including ourselves. We depend on them for food and air,” said David Attenborough, presenter (介绍人) of the series. It’s time to look after wild plants just as carefully as our houseplants. 21. Why does The Green Planet give us a new look at plants? A. It opens people’s eyes that in a way The Blue Planet failed to do. B. It shows a different plant world that people never know. C. Plants in the wild have different looks compared with plants in the house. D. Plants in the wild have the same lifestyle as humans. 22. What do plants in the rainforest fight for? A. Water. B. Sunlight. C. Air. D. Space. 23. Why does David Attenborough think plants are the basis of all life? A. Plants provide food and air for all other life. B. Plants are the quietest species (物种) of all life. C. Humans can’t make money without plants. D. All other lives eat plants for food. 24. What do we know from the passage? A. Wild plants are not as important as houseplants. B. Plants communicate with each other through leaves. C. Plants have different ways to protect themselves. D. Plants cannot live without fungus. 25. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Wild Plants Unknown to People B. Differences Between Two Documentaries C. Protecting the Earth Is Always Necessary D. A Documentary Takes You into the World of Plants 【答案】21. B 22. B 23. A 24. C 25. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了BBC纪录片《绿色星球》，打破了人们对植物“安静、无法交流、不会行动”的固有认知。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“A new BBC documentary series, The Green Planet, gives us a new look at plants. It shows wonderful ways that plants behave.”可知，《绿色星球》呈现了植物奇妙的行为方式，让人们看到了一个不同的、此前未曾了解的植物世界，因此给了人们对植物的新认识。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In rainforests, different kinds of plants race for sunlight.”可知，热带雨林中的植物争夺的是阳光。故选B。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“‘Plants are the basis of all life, including ourselves. We depend on them for food and air,’ said David Attenborough”可知，大卫·爱登堡认为植物是所有生命的基础，是因为植物为所有其他生命提供食物和空气。故选A。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Each kind of plant has its own way to protect and fight for itself.”可知，每种植物都有自己的保护和生存方式，即植物有不同的自我保护方法。故选C。 【25题详解】 最佳标题题。文章围绕BBC纪录片《绿色星球》展开，介绍了纪录片所展现的植物世界的奇妙之处，核心是这部纪录片带人们走进植物的世界。选项D“纪录片带你走进植物的世界”符合语境。故选D。 C Liu Lingli is from Hengyang, a city in Hunan Province, China. When she was a little girl, she met one of her neighbors, Mrs. Wang, who couldn’t hear or talk. One cold winter day, Liu was playing in her house. Mrs. Wang used sign language (手语) to tell Liu something, but Liu did not understand. Mrs. Wang’s husband explained that she wanted to make her a scarf. This kind act touched Liu’s heart, and she wished Mrs. Wang could hear and talk. This experience inspired Liu a lot. When she was 14, she decided to become a teacher for students who couldn’t hear. She went to Nanjing Normal University of Special Education and learned how to teach these students. After four years, she finished her studies and became a teacher at Hengyang Normal School of Special Education, and taught Chinese language to first graders. Liu was very young when she started teaching. But she treated the students as her children. She practiced sign language every day for hours before class. She also taught the students how to wash their faces and clothes. She became the “mother” of the students. When Liu was 32, she had her own baby. Sadly, the boy was born with a hearing problem. Her friends advised her to resign (辞职) and get her son treated, but Liu didn’t want to leave her students alone. She chose to teach her students in her free time. After several months, both her son and her students made much progress because of her hard work. Liu said she loved hearing her students say “mom” or “dad” for the first time—it was the best sound for her. 26. Why did Liu decide to be a special teacher? A. She wanted to thank her neighbors. B.

She cared about her son more than her students. D. She was excited to hear her son say “mom”. 30. According to Paragraph 4, why did Liu Lingli choose not to resign? A. Because her son did not need any treatment. B. Because she did not want to leave her students. C. Because she had no friends to advise her. D. Because her son had already recovered from the hearing problem. 【答案】26. C 27. C 28. D 29. A 30.

That’s one reason why two girls worried about a number of homeless cats in their town. “My dad first saw this big cat problem…and he knew a man who was troubled by cats,” said Vivienne Thompson. Vivienne and her friend Catrina Vanderwolf learnt that the man wasn’t happy about all the cats living around his home. They offered to help. Each day after school all winter long, the girls walked two miles to feed the cats. “We could see all their footprints in the snow and at first couldn’t understand why they wouldn’t let us get close to them,” explained the girls. They contacted (联系) Valerie Ingram at the Lakes Animal Friendship Society. She told them that the cats are “feral”. They belong to no one. Feral cats have little or no contact with humans their whole lives. The large group of homeless cats probably started with two stray (走失的) cats who gave birth to some baby cats. Those baby cats grew up and had their babies, and before long, there were a number of homeless cats. To get this group of cats under control, the cats would need neuter operations (绝育手术) so that they could no longer have babies. Vivienne and Catrina shared what they learnt with their teachers and other students—and a project (项目) began! Grassy Plains School started raising money to pay for the cats’ operations. Before long, local organizations agreed to help. Volunteers spent months catching the cats. Finally, they neutered all the cats and returned them to the group. “We were so happy to be a part of helping, to get to know the cats, to see only happy cats and a happy man who feeds them,” said Vivienne and Catrina.

A. children B. neighbors C. parents D. teachers B In many people’s eyes, plants are quiet. They can’t talk. They can’t walk. And they can’t think like us. A new BBC documentary series, The Green Planet, gives us a new look at plants. It shows wonderful ways that plants behave. “The Green Planet tells the secret lives of plants in the same way The Blue Planet opened our eyes to the ocean,” editor Elle Hunt wrote in New Scientist. Plants compete against each other to live. Each kind of plant has its own way to protect and fight for itself. In rainforests different kinds of plants race for sunlight. The forest floor is described as a “war field” in it as only two percent of the sunlight shines through it. Some plants spread their big leaves to reach the light. But they are caught up by a vine (藤本植物). Finally, they are both overtaken (超越) by a fast-growing tree. Plants also help each other and even communicate. In deserts, the roots of Euphrates poplars (胡杨树根) are connected. If a tree finds water, it will share it with other Euphrates poplars through the roots. Studies also show that some plants use fungus (真菌) as a way to “talk” to each other. It’s just like how Wi-Fi works. The documentary not only lets us be surprised by the plant world but also pushes us to understand that plants are important. “Plants are the basis (基础) of all life, including ourselves. We depend on them for food and air,” said David Attenborough, presenter (介绍人) of the series. It’s time to look after wild plants just as carefully as our houseplants. 21. Why does The Green Planet give us a new look at plants? A It opens people’s eyes that in a way The Blue Planet failed to do. B. It shows a different plant world that people never know. C. Plants in the wild have different looks compared with plants in the house. D. Plants in the wild have the same lifestyle as humans. 22. What do plants in the rainforest fight for? A. Water. B. Sunlight. C. Air. D. Space. 23. Why does David Attenborough think plants are the basis of all life? A. Plants provide food and air for all other life. B. Plants are the quietest species (物种) of all life. C. Humans can’t make money without plants. D All other lives eat plants for food. 24. What do we know from the passage? A. Wild plants are not as important as houseplants. B. Plants communicate with each other through leaves. C. Plants have different ways to protect themselves. D. Plants cannot live without fungus. 25. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Wild Plants Unknown to People B. Differences Between Two Documentaries C. Protecting the Earth Is Always Necessary D. A Documentary Takes You into the World of Plants C Liu Lingli is from Hengyang, a city in Hunan Province, China. When she was a little girl, she met one of her neighbors, Mrs. Wang, who couldn’t hear or talk. One cold winter day, Liu was playing in her house. Mrs. Wang used sign language (手语) to tell Liu something, but Liu did not understand. Mrs. Wang’s husband explained that she wanted to make her a scarf. This kind act touched Liu’s heart, and she wished Mrs. Wang could hear and talk. This experience inspired Liu a lot. When she was 14, she decided to become a teacher for students who couldn’t hear. She went to Nanjing Normal University of Special Education and learned how to teach these students. After four years, she finished her studies and became a teacher at Hengyang Normal School of Special Education, and taught Chinese language to first graders. Liu was very young when she started teaching. But she treated the students as her children. She practiced sign language every day for hours before class. She also taught the students how to wash their faces and clothes. She became the “mother” of the students. When Liu was 32, she had her own baby. Sadly, the boy was born with a hearing problem. Her friends advised her to resign (辞职) and get her son treated, but Liu didn’t want to leave her students alone. She chose to teach her students in her free time. After several months, both her son and her students made much progress because of her hard work. Liu said she loved hearing her students say “mom” or “dad” for the first time—it was the best sound for her. 26. Why did Liu decide to be a special teacher? A. She wanted to thank her neighbors. B. She wanted to treat her son’s illness. C. She wanted to help special populations. D. She wanted to live a happy life. 27. The underlined word “inspired” in Paragraph 2 means “________”.

That’s one reason why two girls worried about a number of homeless cats in their town. “My dad first saw this big cat problem…and he knew a man who was troubled by cats,” said Vivienne Thompson. Vivienne and her friend Catrina Vanderwolf learnt that the man wasn’t happy about all the cats living around his home. They offered to help. Each day after school all winter long, the girls walked two miles to feed the cats. “We could see all their footprints in the snow and at first couldn’t understand why they wouldn’t let us get close to them,” explained the girls. They contacted (联系) Valerie Ingram at the Lakes Animal Friendship Society. She told them that the cats are “feral”. They belong to no one. Feral cats have little or no contact with humans their whole lives. The large group of homeless cats probably started with two stray (走失的) cats who gave birth to some baby cats. Those baby cats grew up and had their babies, and before long, there were a number of homeless cats. To get this group of cats under control, the cats would need neuter operations (绝育手术) so that they could no longer have babies. Vivienne and Catrina shared what they learnt with their teachers and other students—and a project (项目) began! Grassy Plains School started raising money to pay for the cats’ operations. Before long, local organizations agreed to help. Volunteers spent months catching the cats. Finally, they neutered all the cats and returned them to the group. “We were so happy to be a part of helping, to get to know the cats, to see only happy cats and a happy man who feeds them,” said Vivienne and Catrina.
