一、阅读理解
阅读下列短文,然后从每小题 A、B、C、D 中选出能回答所提问题的最佳答案。
Insect-eating plants (食昆虫植物) don't have sharp teeth, but they do “eat” living creatures (生物). That ability makes these plants some of the most interesting plants on earth.
Insect-eating plants have bright colours, smells, and flowers to make insects come closer. Insects are then trapped by the plants and become their food. Most kinds of insect-eating plants are smaller plants. They can reach up to 12 inches in height. Some taller ones can grow to the height of 3 feet.
These insect-eating plants live all over the world. About 40 kinds live in North America. Each type has its own special way to trap insects. And each type has its own special look. For example, the Venus flytrap (捕蝇草) can feel when a moving insect is in between its leaves and will very quickly close to catch the insect. If the insect is too small and gets out of it, the trap will open again in less than 12 hours. If the insect moves around and can't get out, the trap will get more closed.
Insect-eating plants usually live in wetlands. They have different ways to get the food they need to live. Insects that visit the plant are trapped as food. Just like other plants, insect-eating plants also get energy in the process of photosynthesis. Insect-eating plants don't always have to include insects in their diet; however, they seem to be healthier when they do.
