三、阅读理解(共 5 小题,每小题 3 分,满分 15 分)
阅读短文,根据短文内容选择最佳答案。
From the podcast The Natural World, we have learnt that trees also have families and relatives like us. Actually, they have senses too.
In the past, scientists didn't know that trees could sense things. Now, they are discovering that trees can notice lots of things around them!
Trees can sense many different things with their roots. For example, they can feel where "up" and "down" are. There is no light down in the earth, but the roots always know which way to grow.
Trees can feel different temperatures. They know when to drop their leaves in autumn, and when to grow new leaves in spring.
If an animal starts biting a tree of a certain species, the tree can find out what happens. For example, if a deer starts eating from a tree, the tree can make its leaves taste really bad after a while.
Tree roots can sense different sounds. They really like the sound of running water when it is dry. If the sound continues for a long time, the roots will slowly start growing towards it.
Trees can sense different kinds of light and colours. They know where the sun is, so their branches grow in that direction. That's why trees in the northern hemisphere usually have more branches growing out on the south side.
There are still many things we don't know about trees. Scientists are working hard to find out more.
1. What can trees sense with their roots?

C. It will stop growing.
D. It will drop all its leaves.
4. Why do trees in the northern hemisphere have more branches on the south side?
