As I grew into a teenager,I didn't get so excited about gardening with Dad. nstead of the magical land of possibility,it had tumned into some kind of prison. However,as Dad grew older,his love for gardening never disappeared.After all the kids were grown and had started families of their own,Dad turned to gardening like never before.Even when he had cancer,he still took care of his garden. But then,the cancer,bit by bit,invaded his body.I had to do the things he used to do.What really convinced me that Dad was dying was the state of his garden that year.The rows and rows of colorful vegetables were gone.Too tired to weed (them,he simply let them be.He only planted tomatoes. A few years later,I couldn't even bear to look at anyone's garden without having strong memories pour over me like cold water from a bucket.Last year,1 decided to plant my own garden and started out with just a few tomatoes.That morning,after breaking up an amount of soil,something caught the comer of my eye and I had to smile.It was my eight-year-old son Jerry,happily playing in the freshly tilled soil. 56.What did the author like doing as a child in the garden?

C The question,"What do elephants and fish have in common?"may sound strange but researchers have found that they both have a feature not observed in any other creature. A team at Georgia Institute of Technology has discovered that elephants use a special form of air suction (in their trunks to pick up food and handle delicate objects.Animals using suction to handle objects are typically found in water.Many fish perform suction feeding that requires specialised body parts to quickly generate air pressure that can draw nearby food into their mouths. The researchers have found that an elephant could do the same thanks to its huge nostrils(孔)and lung capacity.The radius(半径)of an elephant's nostrils can increase by up to 30%,and the volume of air that it can push through its trunk increases by 64%.This allows it to take in air at 30 times the speed of a human sneeze,enabling it to drink 3L of water a second. In an experiment at Atlanta zoo,the researchers looked at how an elephant would pick up a small crispy(酥脆的)pancake,which was only 0.Smm thick. The force required to break the pancake was less than 1%of the trunk's weight (about 100kg).The elephant was found to either use suction at a fixed distance 第9页共14页 from the pancake to "raise"the object in the air and hold it,or gently press the tip of its trunk against the pancake and apply suction to pick it up.At no time during the experiment did the elephant break the pancake. The researchers believe that the findings could help technology companies develop better machines that use air to do their jobs,as suction has long been used in robotics to grab objects.The fascinating part of the study for robotics is that elephants can use air suction both on ground and in water:The researchers are so impressed that they suggest the elephant's suction technique could help improve robotics technology. Nature never ceases to surprise.Indeed,it is thought that over four-fifths of living species on earth remain undiscovered.That is a reminder of how little we know of our planet,and that we are not the only creatures with hidden complexities. 61.According to the researchers,what is the ability shared by both elephants and fish? A.Surviving low air pressure. B.Using air suction technique. C.Observing other creatures. D.Adapting to new environments. 62.Which of the following is TRUE about an elephant according to Paragraph 3? A.It drinks water 30 times faster than man. B.It lets out 64%more air when sneezing C.Its lung capacity is smaller than we think. D.Its nostrils can get 30%bigger in radius. 63.What can be learned about an elephant's trunk in the experiment? A.Its tip can sense the thickness of objects. B.Its weight affects its movement. C.It breaks the food before holding it. D.It picks up delicate objects in different ways. 64.The research findings may contribute to the development of A.underwater robots B.nature reserves C.transport vehicles 第10页共14页 D.fish farming 65.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage? A.To promote a new technology. B.To recommend a research team. C.To introduce a scientific discovery. D.To explain a historical phenomenon. D Studying a subject that you feel pointless is never a fun or easy task.If you're studying history,asking yoursclf the question"why is history important" is a very good first step.History is an essential part of human civilization.You will find something here that will arouse your interest,or get you thinking about the significance of history. History grounds us in our roots.History is an important and interesting field ofstudy,and leaming the history of our home country can give us a deeper,more meaningful glimpse into our ancestral pasts,and how we got to where we are today.Many people feel like they need a sense of cultural belonging,which is something that studying your roots and being open-minded to the evolution of your culture can provide.

History can inspire us to learn more.What's fantastic about history is the way it broadens our horizons.It's almost impossible to learn about one historical period without having dozens of questions about related concepts.Study the 19th century England,and you might catch a glimpse of Charles Dickens"Oliver 第11页兆14页 Twist.Look up Charles Dickens,and you might leam a thing or two about realism.Or maybe you end up switching your attention away from novels,and discover the history of romantic poets in England.It can go anywhere,and there is something in there for absolutely anybody. The value of history cannot be underestimated.We don't have to live in the past,but we can dcfinitcly do bctter by lcarning from it and using the lessons learnt to lead more meaningful lives. 66.The underlined part "where we are today"in Paragraph 2 probably means A.the turning point in our history B.the present state of our nation C.the location of our homeland D.the total area of our country 67.According to the experts,why is history useful for people to handle challenges of life? A.The problems at present are similar to those in the past. B.Ancient people laid economic foundations for people today. C.The current challenges of life were predicted by the ancestors.

D.History helps us improve our cross-cultural awareness. 69.With the example in Paragraph 5,the writer intends to show that A.Charles Dickens contributes much to British literature B.Oliver Twist can satisfy our curiosity for romantic poets C.reading novels is a way to leam about a historical period D.studying history can arouse people's interest in other fields 70.What could be the best title for the passage?
