The youngest girl was singing the first line of a song, over and over again. Everything the aunt said began with “Don’t” and everything the children said began with “ 3 ”.
“Don’t put your feet on the seat, Cyril!”
“Why not?”
“Because you’ll make it dirty. And don’t always look at the man. That’s not 4 . Oh, look at those sheep in that field!”

Nearly every field the bus had travelled past had sheep in it, so the aunt’s 5 was difficult to explain. “Why is that man taking the sheep into the other field?” asked the younger girl.
“Perhaps there’s more grass in that field,” 6 the aunt.
“But there’s lots of grass in both fields.”

The children did not look at all 9 by the aunt’s offer. They’d obviously heard her stories before, and this one was very boring indeed.

二、阅读理解(2025·乐山)
Unlike what you may imagine, taking good care of a plant can be difficult, especially when it comes to how to water a plant. Many people are not sure how often or how much they need to water their plants. Even some farmers may have the same problem. Luckily, a new technology called GrowStream can help them “talk” to their plants.
GrowStream is a watering system. Its tubes(管子) have special tiny holes in them. When plants need water, they will release(释放) chemicals(化学物质) through their roots. When the holes detect(察觉) these chemicals, they
首页
will open. The plants then get water from these holes. As the plants “drink” enough water, they stop releasing these chemicals. And that “tells” the holes to close back up and stop watering.
This system can help save 45 to 50 percent more water than common watering systems. It was created by a company called RDI. The company has brought the GrowStream system to many farms in South Africa. It is also testing the system in the US. It will be used to make the city greener while saving more water.
首页
“GrowStream is more than just a technology,” said Jan Gould, CEO of RDI. “We want it to ‘talk’ to people, too. It ‘says’ two things: The earth’s natural resources(资源) are not so much, and we should take better care of the planet through new technology.”
首页
( )1. Why is it difficult to water a plant?
A. Plants need too much water.
B. It is hard to discover whether the plant needs water.

( )2. How does GrowStream make sure plants “drink” enough water?
A. By providing water all the time.
B. By releasing chemicals to help the plants “drink” enough water.
C. By putting water into the plants’ roots.
D. By detecting the amount of chemicals that the plants release.

( )3. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to(指的是)?
