If you visit the vegetable market during this time, you may see something 26 . There are often groups of vegetables that look like “ugly ducklings”. They do not look fresh and smooth. They look old and wrinkled (皱巴巴的) because of the cold frost (霜) outside. You may think these vegetables are not good to eat 27 they look ugly. However, they have a big secret (秘诀). If you taste them, they are very delicious. They taste quite sweet, almost like someone has put 28 into them! 29 are old and wrinkled vegetables sweeter than fresh and smooth ones? That’s because vegetables are 30 living things. They want to stay alive in the winter. If the water 31 their bodies turns into ice, they will die (死). So, they have a clever way to save themselves. Vegetables have something called “starch” (淀粉) inside them. When the temperature (气温) goes down, they 32 change this starch into sugar. This is very important because of an easy scientific 33 : water turns to ice very easily, but sugar water does not. By having a lot of sugar in them, the vegetables 34 it much harder for the water inside them to turn to ice. This change 35 the vegetables from the cold weather. It stops them from dying of cold. For us, it is also great news. It means we can enjoy vegetables that are naturally sweet and tasty. So, these vegetables are not just ugly.

They look different in many ways, some are small and others big. Plants give us oxygen (氧气) and food. If there are no plants, we can’t live. Animals are important, too. They help plants grow by moving a kind of powder (粉末) from one flower to another. We call this “pollination”. People also live in deserts. They build houses to stay cool. These houses have special ways to keep the hot sun out and let in fresh air. They do not use much water and are friendly to the desert world.

In very cold places, almost (几乎) nothing grows. 47 In very dry parts of the earth, only some unusual (不寻常的) plants can grow. That’s why there are almost no trees or grass in dry deserts. Plants must also have a place to put down their roots (根) and grow. 48 If (如果) the town is on hard land, the plants here can only find the soil (土壤) between the cracks (裂缝) of stones (石头) to grow in. 49 What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach (沙滩)? A few plants, such as beach grass, will grow in sand. But most plants won’t grow.

They are shorter and better than their big brothers.”可知，新型椰子树比普通椰子树更矮。 37．根据表格中“Short Trees”对应的“Fruits per Tree”一行的内容“120 to 140 coconuts”可知，一棵矮椰子树能结120到140个椰子。 38．根据表格中“Tall Trees”对应的“Time to Grow Fruits”一行的内容“about seven years”可知，高椰子树结果需要大约7年时间。 39．根据“Don’t stand under coconut trees, or you may get hurt (伤害) by falling coconuts.”可知，不应该站在椰子树下，否则可能会被掉落的椰子砸伤，所以C选项正确；根据“A coconut is both a seed (种子) and a fruit.”可知，椰子既是种子也是果实，所以A选项错误；根据表格内容可知，矮椰子树比高椰子树结果更多，所以B选项错误；根据“Chinese scientists grew a new kind of coconut tree in Hainan.”可知，新型椰子树是在海南培育的，而不是云南，所以D选项错误。 40．文章主要介绍了新型椰子树和普通椰子树的相关信息，这类科普性的文章通常会出现在报纸上。 B Our world is a big family of nature.

Some lands have so many plants. 46 To grow, plants need some things. One is warmth. In very cold places, almost (几乎) nothing grows. 47 In very dry parts of the earth, only some unusual (不寻常的) plants can grow. That’s why there are almost no trees or grass in dry deserts. Plants must also have a place to put down their roots (根) and grow. 48 If (如果) the town is on hard land, the plants here can only find the soil (土壤) between the cracks (裂缝) of stones (石头) to grow in. 49 What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach (沙滩)? A few plants, such as beach grass, will grow in sand. But most plants won’t grow. Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants every day, many of them will die because the sand on the beach has almost no food for plants. In a word, plants are important parts of nature. 50 根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使文章意思通顺、内容完整。 A．Plants also need water. B．Love Mother Nature, and protect (保护) plants first.

E．Plants must have food to grow. 【答案】46．C 47．A 48．D 49．E 50．B 【导语】本文主要探讨了植物在不同地方生长的原因及条件。 46．根据“Why do plants grow in some places and not in others? Some lands have so many plants.”可知有些地方有很多植物，故空格处应介绍有的地方没有植物生长，选项C“但有些地方根本没有植物。”符合语境。故选C。 47．根据“In very dry parts of the earth, only some unusual (不寻常的) plants can grow. That’s why there are almost no trees or grass in dry deserts.”可知，下文提到在地球上非常干燥的地方，只有一些不寻常的植物能生长，这就是为什么干燥的沙漠里几乎没有树木或草，由此可推测此处应是与植物生长所需的水分有关，选项A“植物也需要水。”符合语境。故选A。 48．根据“If (如果) the town is on hard land, the plants here can only find the soil (土壤) between the cracks (裂缝) of stones (石头) to grow in.”可知，下文提到如果城镇建在坚硬的土地上，这里的植物只能在石头裂缝之间的土壤中生长，由此可推测此处应是表示在坚硬的土地上植物很难生长，选项D“植物在坚硬的土地上很难生长。”符合语境。故选D。 49．根据“Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants every day, many of them will die because the sand on the beach has almost no food for plants.”可知，下文提到即使天气足够暖和，而且我们每天都给植物浇水，许多植物还是会死，因为沙滩上的沙子几乎没有植物所需的食物，由此可推测此处应是表示植物生长需要食物，选项E“植物生长必须有食物。”符合语境。故选E。 50．根据“In a word, plants are important parts of nature.”可知，上文提到植物是自然的重要组成部分，由此可推测此处应是呼吁人们保护植物，选项B“热爱大自然，首先要保护植物。”符合语境。故选B。 七．语法填空（10分） 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入一个适当的词，或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。 As we all know, trees play 51 important role for humans and animals.
