Last Sunday, Mary went to the Guangzhou Ocean Park to watch the dolphin show with her parents and her brother. Mary felt excited when she saw the dolphins play with balls, go through rings and dance with the trainers. After watching the show, she became more interested in dolphins and wanted to know about the animals, so she looked up more information about dolphins on the Internet.
Communication (交流)
Every dolphin has its own “name”. And the “name” is a special whistle (哨声). When a dolphin is born, it usually has an unusual whistle for itself. Dolphins “talk” to each other about a lot of things, such as their age, feelings, and finding food. They also use sounds and body language to communicate.
Play
Dolphins live in groups, and they often join others from different groups to play games and have fun, just like people. Scientists believe only smart animals can play together.
Teamwork
Dolphins make plans for getting things they want like people. In the seas of southern Brazil, when there are fish near a boat, dolphins make a sound to the fishermen. Then the fishermen put their nets in the water to catch fish. Why do dolphins assist the fishermen? That’s because they can eat some of the fish from the fishermen.
26. What didn’t the dolphins do during the dolphin show?
A. Went through rings. B. Caught fish. C. Played with balls. D. Danced.
27. What can we infer about dolphin communication from the text?
A. Dolphins only communicate about finding food.
B. Dolphins can communicate by sounds but not through body language.
C. They share information about personal details like age and feelings.
D. All the dolphins share one name.
28. Why do scientists think dolphins are smart animals?
A. Because they can perform in ocean shows.
B. Because they live in large groups underwater.
C. Because they can play cooperatively (合作地) with others.
D. Because they communicate by using special whistles.
29. What does the underlined word “assist” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. help B. protect C. harm D. save
30. What is the best title for this passage?
A. A trip to Guangzhou Ocean Park B. How to protect dolphins?
C. Why are dolphins so smart? D. Some facts about dolphins
C
Can trees talk? Some scientists find that trees can really “talk”!
Some trees use chemicals (化学物质) to talk. When insects attack them, they give out chemicals from the leaves. This is like a call for help, “I’m being attacked!” Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others can call birds to come to kill the insects. Scientists hope to learn more about this, so that we can use it to keep insects away from crops like rice.
More surprisingly, trees also use sound to talk. People can’t hear these sounds, but trees are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Some trees make noises when there is not enough water.
Most surprisingly of all, trees have an “Internet” to give out and get information in a big forest. Scientists call it the “Wood Wide Web” (树联网). The fungi (真菌) underground help build up the “Wood Wide Web” among the roots of different trees. It is just like the Internet we use. Using the “Wood Wide Web”, trees can share information and even food with each other. However, it may also be harmful. Some trees may use it to take too much food from others, or give out chemicals to hurt other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to build a “Great Wall” to help stop these.
Trees talk to each other in different ways. Now, scientists are learning more about these ways and maybe one day we will be able to “talk” with trees ourselves.
31. What are the purposes of the chemicals released by trees?
①To drive insects away ②To attract more insects to the leaves
③To help the trees grow faster ④To call birds that will eat the attacking insects
A. ①② B. ①④ C. ②③ D. ②④
32. How many ways does the passage show trees can “talk”?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
33. How do trees primarily communicate through the “Wood Wide Web”?
A. By changing their leaf colors.
B. Through electrical signals in their branches.
C. Through underground fungi connecting their roots.
D. By producing loud sounds.
34. What does the underlined “it” refer to in Paragraph 4?
A The information shared between trees B. The Wood Wide Web system
C. The fungi underground D. The chemicals trees produce
35. What is the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
第二节 以下是一篇短文,请阅读全文,并从下列方框里的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中,使原文意思完整、连贯。(共5小题,每小题1.5分)
Question:In ancient China, willow branches (柳树枝) were often used as a parting gift between friends and family members. 36
Answer:
One reason is that willow trees are strong. 37 Because of this unique (独特的) feature, giving a willow branch to say goodbye to loved ones is a way to tell them you hope they will easily adapt to their new living environment.
Meanwhile, in Mandarin, the pronunciation for the willow tree “liu (柳)” is similar to the character “liu (留)”, which means asking someone to stay — only the tones (声调) are different. 38 Even though we know that they must leave, we still do like that.
39 At that time, Baqiao, a bridge in Chang’an, today’s Xi’an, was a common place to say goodbye. People often stopped there and handed willow branches to departing (离开的) people.
40 In The Book of Poetry, there is the line “When I left there, willows shed tears.” At the time of the Tang and Song dynasties, such poems were common as traveling was easy and poets felt the sorrow of separation. For example, Wang Wei wrote “The willows by the hotel look so fresh and green,” in his famous poem A Fond Farewell to a Friend.
A.They can survive in any soil, wet or dry, north or south.
B.When the willow leaves become dark green, spring is gone.
C.It’s said that this custom became popular during the Han Dynasty.
D.Do you know why willow branches are a symbol of farewell (告别)?
E.So offering a willow branch is like asking the other party (对方) to stay.
F.Willow branches, as a symbol of farewell, are often mentioned in poems.
