With so many plants, animals and other living things on the planet, it can be difficult to find out what kind of grass is growing by the roadside or what kind of birds just flew by. A website might be helpful. Some scientists set up a web-based Encyclopaedia of Life (EOL). It aims to (旨在) name every species on Earth and be a good guide for people. To get the encyclopaedia started, the scientists will use information from the scientific databases (数据库). And finally, non-scientists with specialized (专业的) knowledge will come to help in the site. Bird-watchers, for example, will be able to record what kinds of birds they’ve seen and where they live. To make sure the encyclopaedia is correct, scientists will check much of the information added to it. As the EOL develops, you might find it useful for schools. The site will create some special pages for kids who are studying ecosystems (生态系统) in their neighbourhoods. The EOL is also helpful for you to choose whatever information you like. It takes years for scientists to collect all the data they need to analyze (分析) species now. The scientists of the Encyclopaedia of Life hope that EOL will speed up that process. (  )1. What does the web-based EOL aim to do? A. To save all the plants. B. To work out the number of birds. C. To find out what covers the Earth. D. To name all the living things on Earth. (  )2. What is one of the characteristics of the EOL? A. It was set up by school students. B. It only allows scientists to help in the site. C. It is about different kinds of grass and birds. D. It provides information on different species. (  ) 3. What does the underlined part “that process” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Collecting data. B. Studying ecosystems. C. Creating a new way. D. Describing and analyzing species. (  ) 4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. There are 1.8 million living species on Earth. B. There are no non-scientists helping in the site. C. EOL is not useful for you to choose information. D. As the EOL develops, students might find it useful. (  ) 5. Where may you read this passage? A. In a storybook. B. In a health magazine. C. In a science magazine. D. In a sports newspaper. VI. 短文填空 A. It has to come up for air. B. They sometimes seem to speak to each other. C.
