When Yuan was a child, people were hungry 　　　　2　　　　 they had no food to eat. At that time, he quietly made up his mind: “I want to 　　　　3　　　　 everyone can have enough food to eat!” Yuan became an agricultural scientist 　　　　4　　　　 he grew up. To find high-yield (高产的) rice, he stayed in the rice fields every day. Once, he found a special rice plant in the field. It produced much 　　　　5　　　　 grains than ordinary rice. He was very happy, collected the seeds of this rice plant, and began a long journey of 　　　　6　　　　. Researching hybrid rice was not an easy task.

People use it to build houses, make tools, and even musical instruments. Pandas love bamboo too— they eat a lot of bamboo shoots every day. In Chinese culture, bamboo is a 　　　　5　　　　 of goodness and strength. Last year, I visited the Bamboo Sea in Sichuan. It was a 　　　　6　　　　 bamboo forest. The air there was fresh, and the scenery was fantastic. I saw many people taking photos and enjoying the beauty of bamboo.

To live and grow well, plants need three key things: air, water, and sunlight. Just like animals, they need clean air and water. Plants take in air and sunlight through their leaves. Their roots, which are usually under the ground and hard to see, absorb water from the soil. Some roots can grow very long. Interestingly, some plants need lots of water, but others need only a little. They live in deserts where there is very little rain. Unlike animals, plants don’t have to look for food. They make their own food using sunlight, water, and air. This process (过程) produces glucose, a kind of sugar that plants need for growth. Most plants have three main parts: roots, stems, and leaves. Roots hold the plant in the ground. The stem is the main body of the plant—for trees, the stem is called a trunk (树干) . Leaves come in different sizes, shapes, and colors because there are many types of plants. Plants can’t move, look for food, or make sounds like animals. But they are living things that are very important to humans. They provide (提供) us with oxygen and food, so they need our love. 1. What do plants need to live and grow? A. Air, water and soil. B. Air, water and sunlight. C. Soil, sunlight and food. 2. What does the underlined word “absorb” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Take in. B. Take out. C. Take away. 3. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Animals are different from plants in getting food. B. Plants make their own food and their main parts. C. Leaves have different sizes and shapes. 4. What is the writer going to talk about next? A. We need to learn more about plants. B. We must read more books about plants. C. We should protect the plants around us. B篇 The world felt greatly sad about the loss of a legendary (传奇的) scientist, Dr. Jane Goodall. On October 1, 2025, the founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and a United Nations Messenger of Peace passed away peacefully in California, at the age of 91. Born in London in 1934, Jane Goodall spent her whole life studying chimpanzees (黑猩猩) in Africa. In 1960, she traveled to Tanzania to observe chimpanzees’ behavior. In the jungles of Gombe, with her amazing patience and sharp ability to notice things, she bridged the gap (隔阂) between humans and animals. She named chimpanzees, such as Fifi, Flo, and David Greybeard, rather than numbering them. At that time, this was regarded as an unscientific way. Her scientific discoveries shocked the world. She found that chimpanzees use tools to catch insects, eat meat, and even show feelings similar to those of humans. These findings changed how people understood animals and nature. Her research showed that humans are not the only species able to use tools, which renewed biology textbooks worldwide. Beyond science, she became a person who worked hard to protect the environment. In 1977, she founded the Jane Goodall Institute to save wildlife habitats (栖息地) and educate people about nature. Her Roots & Shoots program inspires young people in over 120 countries to protect animals and the planet. The United Nations honored her as a Messenger of Peace in 2002 for her lifelong efforts. Even at 90, she traveled 300 days a year to speak about climate change and animal protection. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said, “Jane Goodall’s work teaches us to care for all living beings. Her legacy (遗产) will live forever.” 1. When did Jane Goodall pass away? A. In 1934 in London. B. In 1960 in Tanzania. C. In 2002 at the UN. D. In 2025 in California. 2. What was Jane Goodall’s shocking discovery about chimpanzees? A. Chimpanzees could be given numbers instead of names. B. Chimpanzees use tools, eat meat and have human-like feelings. C. Chimpanzees are the only species that can bridge the gap between humans and animals. D. Chimpanzees are the most important part of the Roots & Shoots program. 3. What can we infer from the fact that Jane Goodall traveled 300 days a year even at 90? A. She had no interest in staying at home. B. She was devoted to environmental protection. C. She was required to do more work by the Jane Goodall Institute. D. She wanted to get more rewards from the United Nations. 4. What is the passage about? A. The history of the Jane Goodall Institute and the Roots & Shoots program. B. Jane Goodall’s childhood experiences and her love for chimpanzees. C. The shocking scientific discoveries Jane Goodall made in Africa. D. Jane Goodall’s life achievements and her great influence on the world. 二、阅读还原 请阅读下面短文，根据每段内容，从短文后所给的选项中选出适当的小标题。 Many children like strawberries. Strawberries are children’s favourite fruit, because they are really good for our health. Here are some facts about strawberries. 　　　　1　　　　 Strawberries grow in many parts of the world, especially in places with mild weather. China is the largest producer, and strawberries are also grown in Europe, Asia, and other regions. 　　　　2　　　　 Strawberry seeds（种子）have to experience cold weather before they can start to grow. The best time to plant strawberries is around March to April. 　　　　3　　　　 First, plant a strawberry seed deeply. Next, the seed will develop roots and some green leaves. Then, a flower will come out. A small and green strawberry will grow from this flower. As time goes by, this green strawberry gets bigger and turns into a bright red fruit. 　　　　4　　　　 Strawberries have a sweet and sour taste that most kids love. They are juicy and refreshing, perfect for eating fresh or adding to desserts, like ice cream and cakes. 　　　　5　　　　 When picking strawberries, look for ones that are bright red all over. They should also smell sweet and fresh, and feel not hard in your hand. A. When is strawberry season? B. How do strawberries grow? C. Where do strawberries grow? D. How do strawberries taste? E. How do we pick fresh strawberries? 三、阅读问答 Jane Goodall’s Message of Hope Lives On The world lost a great scientist. Dr. Jane Goodall passed away on October 1, 2025, in California. Her work changed the way people learn about animals. In 1960, Goodall went to Gombe National Park in Tanzania (坦桑尼亚贡贝国家公园) to watch chimpanzees (黑猩猩). What she found there changed people’s view of animals. People learned that chimpanzees mainly feed on plants. But she saw them use small sticks to get a kind of ant. It shows that humans are not the only animals that can use tools. Goodall also found that chimpanzees have rich lives. They play together, share food, and make peace after they fight. But sometimes they also fight with other groups and even hurt their own group members. She lived in that forest from 1960 to 2025. This allowed her to be close to the groups of chimpanzees. Once, a little chimpanzee held her hand. Another time, a mother chimpanzee allowed her baby to touch Jane’s nose. These small things showed that humans and animals can understand each other without words. These small moments showed their wordless connection. Goodall became a bridge between humans and nature. Later in her life, she worked hard to save forests. She held many projects like the “Trillion Trees” and “Trees for Jane” in order to protect nature. During her whole life, Goodall shared a message of hope. She believed that hope gives people the power to care for nature. Though her work has ended, her spirit of loving nature will always live on. 1. When did Dr. Jane Goodall pass away? 2. How do chimpanzees get that kind of ant? 3. Where did Jane Goodall go to study chimpanzees? 4. What small moments showed Jane and chimpanzees’ wordless connection? 5. As students, what should we do to carry on Jane’s spirit of loving nature? (不超过20个词) 一、阅读单选 （来源:2026年四川省泸州市中考英语试题）It may sound like a magic story that plants can actually sense sounds around them. A new study by scientists at MIT found that rice seeds (种子) can “hear” the sound of raindrops and use the information to “decide” when to grow. It’s not completely new. Earlier studies have already shown some plants could respond to (反应) the environment. They can sense the sounds when caterpillars eat leaves, and when bees fly past. The new study shows that plants are even smarter than we thought. To make sure the seeds respond to sound instead of water, scientists did a test. They chose to focus on rice seeds because rice is usually planted in water. Thousands of rice seeds were put in water. In this way, all of the seeds could get enough water to grow. Some stayed in quiet water, while others sensed man-made raindrops. The result was surprising. The seeds that “hear” raindrop sounds grew 30 to 40 percent faster than the ones in quiet water. This faster growth helps seeds live better in nature. Scientists also found out why this happens. Falling raindrops create clear vibrations in the water. Inside rice seeds, there are tiny parts called statoliths keeping balance. These parts move quickly when they feel the vibrations, which tells the seeds to start growing earlier. The scientists believe that sensing rain sounds may help seeds make sure they’re in a good place to grow. They think this special ability is not just for rice. 1. What can we learn from paragraph 1? A. Plants have “mouths”. B. Rice seeds have “ears”. C. Bees have sense of taste. D. Insects have magical power. 2. Why did scientists put all seeds in water? A. To test their quality. B. To count their number. C. To set them in the same condition. D. To keep them in quiet environment. 3. Which picture could show the result of the scientific test? A.  B.  C.  D.  4. What does the underlined word “vibrations” probably mean? A. Shakes. B. Scenes. C. Shapes. D. Smells. 5. What will be probably talked about next? A. How plant seeds keep perfect balance. B. Why rice seeds live better in some places. C. How scientists carry out the rice seeds test. D. Whether other plant seeds share the ability. 1 / 6 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 2 Section B 1a-1f A组 巩固过关 C组 思维拔高 B组 能力进阶 拓展 链接中考 一、单词拼写 1.

Some are very big, while others are quite small. But all plants are living things that keep growing. To live and grow well, plants need three key things: air, water, and sunlight. Just like animals, they need clean air and water. Plants take in air and sunlight through their leaves. Their roots, which are usually under the ground and hard to see, absorb water from the soil. Some roots can grow very long. Interestingly, some plants need lots of water, but others need only a little. They live in deserts where there is very little rain. Unlike animals, plants don’t have to look for food. They make their own food using sunlight, water, and air. This process (过程) produces glucose, a kind of sugar that plants need for growth. Most plants have three main parts: roots, stems, and leaves. Roots hold the plant in the ground. The stem is the main body of the plant—for trees, the stem is called a trunk (树干) . Leaves come in different sizes, shapes, and colors because there are many types of plants. Plants can’t move, look for food, or make sounds like animals. But they are living things that are very important to humans. They provide (提供) us with oxygen and food, so they need our love. 1. What do plants need to live and grow? A. Air, water and soil. B. Air, water and sunlight. C. Soil, sunlight and food. 2. What does the underlined word “absorb” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Take in. B. Take out. C. Take away. 3. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Animals are different from plants in getting food. B. Plants make their own food and their main parts. C. Leaves have different sizes and shapes. 4. What is the writer going to talk about next? A. We need to learn more about plants. B. We must read more books about plants. C. We should protect the plants around us. 【答案】1. B     2. A     3. B     4. C      【解析】本文介绍了植物的生长需求、获取养分的方式、基本结构以及植物对人类的重要性。 (1)题： 细节理解题。根据“To live and grow well, plants need three key things: air, water, and sunlight.”可知，植物生存和生长需要空气、水和阳光。故选B。 (2)题： 词句猜测题。根据“Plants take in air and sunlight through their leaves. Their roots... absorb water from the soil.”可知，此处是介绍植物获取养分的方式，叶子吸收空气和阳光，那么根就是从土壤中吸收水分，take in“吸收”，与absorb的意思一致。故选A。 (3)题： 主旨大意题。通读第三段可知，第一、二句讲植物可以自己制造食物，第三句及之后讲植物的三个主要部分：根、茎、叶。所以该段主旨是植物能自己制造食物以及植物的主要构成部分。故选B。 (4)题： 推理判断题。根据“They provide us with oxygen and food, so they need our love.”可知，植物对人类很重要，需要人类的爱护，由此可推断作者接下来会讲我们应该保护周围的植物。故选C。 B篇 The world felt greatly sad about the loss of a legendary (传奇的) scientist, Dr. Jane Goodall. On October 1, 2025, the founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and a United Nations Messenger of Peace passed away peacefully in California, at the age of 91. Born in London in 1934, Jane Goodall spent her whole life studying chimpanzees (黑猩猩) in Africa. In 1960, she traveled to Tanzania to observe chimpanzees’ behavior. In the jungles of Gombe, with her amazing patience and sharp ability to notice things, she bridged the gap (隔阂) between humans and animals. She named chimpanzees, such as Fifi, Flo, and David Greybeard, rather than numbering them. At that time, this was regarded as an unscientific way. Her scientific discoveries shocked the world. She found that chimpanzees use tools to catch insects, eat meat, and even show feelings similar to those of humans. These findings changed how people understood animals and nature. Her research showed that humans are not the only species able to use tools, which renewed biology textbooks worldwide. Beyond science, she became a person who worked hard to protect the environment. In 1977, she founded the Jane Goodall Institute to save wildlife habitats (栖息地) and educate people about nature. Her Roots & Shoots program inspires young people in over 120 countries to protect animals and the planet. The United Nations honored her as a Messenger of Peace in 2002 for her lifelong efforts. Even at 90, she traveled 300 days a year to speak about climate change and animal protection. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said, “Jane Goodall’s work teaches us to care for all living beings. Her legacy (遗产) will live forever.” 1. When did Jane Goodall pass away? A. In 1934 in London. B. In 1960 in Tanzania. C. In 2002 at the UN. D. In 2025 in California. 2. What was Jane Goodall’s shocking discovery about chimpanzees? A. Chimpanzees could be given numbers instead of names. B. Chimpanzees use tools, eat meat and have human-like feelings. C. Chimpanzees are the only species that can bridge the gap between humans and animals. D. Chimpanzees are the most important part of the Roots & Shoots program. 3. What can we infer from the fact that Jane Goodall traveled 300 days a year even at 90? A. She had no interest in staying at home. B. She was devoted to environmental protection. C. She was required to do more work by the Jane Goodall Institute. D. She wanted to get more rewards from the United Nations. 4. What is the passage about? A. The history of the Jane Goodall Institute and the Roots & Shoots program. B. Jane Goodall’s childhood experiences and her love for chimpanzees. C. The shocking scientific discoveries Jane Goodall made in Africa. D. Jane Goodall’s life achievements and her great influence on the world. 【答案】1. D     2. B     3. B     4.

Dr. Jane Goodall passed away on October 1, 2025, in California. Her work changed the way people learn about animals. In 1960, Goodall went to Gombe National Park in Tanzania (坦桑尼亚贡贝国家公园) to watch chimpanzees (黑猩猩). What she found there changed people’s view of animals. People learned that chimpanzees mainly feed on plants. But she saw them use small sticks to get a kind of ant. It shows that humans are not the only animals that can use tools. Goodall also found that chimpanzees have rich lives. They play together, share food, and make peace after they fight. But sometimes they also fight with other groups and even hurt their own group members. She lived in that forest from 1960 to 2025. This allowed her to be close to the groups of chimpanzees. Once, a little chimpanzee held her hand. Another time, a mother chimpanzee allowed her baby to touch Jane’s nose. These small things showed that humans and animals can understand each other without words. These small moments showed their wordless connection. Goodall became a bridge between humans and nature. Later in her life, she worked hard to save forests. She held many projects like the “Trillion Trees” and “Trees for Jane” in order to protect nature. During her whole life, Goodall shared a message of hope. She believed that hope gives people the power to care for nature. Though her work has ended, her spirit of loving nature will always live on. 1. When did Dr. Jane Goodall pass away? 2. How do chimpanzees get that kind of ant? 3. Where did Jane Goodall go to study chimpanzees? 4. What small moments showed Jane and chimpanzees’ wordless connection? 5. As students, what should we do to carry on Jane’s spirit of loving nature?

Another time, a mother chimpanzee allowed her baby to touch Jane’s nose.”，正是这两件小事体现人与动物无需语言的心灵相通，整合原文信息即为“A little chimpanzee held Jane’s hand, and a mother chimpanzee allowed her baby to touch Jane’s nose.”。 (5)题： 本题是开放性试题，答案不唯一，但观点要贴合简・古道尔爱护自然的精神，围绕学生可以做到的行动，不超过20个词，合理作答即可。 一、阅读单选 （来源:2026年四川省泸州市中考英语试题）It may sound like a magic story that plants can actually sense sounds around them. A new study by scientists at MIT found that rice seeds (种子) can “hear” the sound of raindrops and use the information to “decide” when to grow. It’s not completely new. Earlier studies have already shown some plants could respond to (反应) the environment. They can sense the sounds when caterpillars eat leaves, and when bees fly past. The new study shows that plants are even smarter than we thought. To make sure the seeds respond to sound instead of water, scientists did a test. They chose to focus on rice seeds because rice is usually planted in water. Thousands of rice seeds were put in water. In this way, all of the seeds could get enough water to grow. Some stayed in quiet water, while others sensed man-made raindrops. The result was surprising. The seeds that “hear” raindrop sounds grew 30 to 40 percent faster than the ones in quiet water. This faster growth helps seeds live better in nature. Scientists also found out why this happens. Falling raindrops create clear vibrations in the water. Inside rice seeds, there are tiny parts called statoliths keeping balance. These parts move quickly when they feel the vibrations, which tells the seeds to start growing earlier. The scientists believe that sensing rain sounds may help seeds make sure they’re in a good place to grow. They think this special ability is not just for rice. 1. What can we learn from paragraph 1? A. Plants have “mouths”. B. Rice seeds have “ears”. C. Bees have sense of taste. D. Insects have magical power. 2. Why did scientists put all seeds in water? A. To test their quality. B. To count their number. C. To set them in the same condition. D. To keep them in quiet environment. 3. Which picture could show the result of the scientific test? A.  B.  C.  D.  4. What does the underlined word “vibrations” probably mean? A. Shakes. B. Scenes. C. Shapes. D. Smells. 5. What will be probably talked about next? A. How plant seeds keep perfect balance. B. Why rice seeds live better in some places. C. How scientists carry out the rice seeds test. D. Whether other plant seeds share the ability. 【答案】1. B     2. C     3. D     4. A     5. D      【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了麻省理工学院的一项新研究发现，水稻种子能够“听到”雨滴声并利用这一信息决定何时生长，揭示了植物比我们想象的更聪明。 (1)题： 第一段提到“A new study by scientists at MIT found that rice seeds (种子) can ‘hear’ the sound of raindrops...”，这直接说明了水稻种子有类似“耳朵”的功能，能感知声音。 (2)题： 第二段提到“In this way, all of the seeds could get enough water to grow.”，科学家将所有种子放在水中是为了保证所有种子都能获得足够的水分，控制变量，保证除声音外所有条件一致。 (3)题： 第三段提到“The seeds that ‘hear’ raindrop sounds grew 30 to 40 percent faster than the ones in quiet water.”，这直接说明了听到雨滴声的种子比在安静水中的种子长得更快，因此有雨滴的一组种子萌发后更高更大，安静组种子更小，D选项的图符合这一结果。 (4)题： 第三段提到“These parts move quickly when they feel the vibrations...”，结合语境雨滴落下产生振动导致内部微粒移动，这直接说明了“vibrations”的意思是“震动”，和Shakes意义相近。 (5)题： 最后一段提到“They think this special ability is not just for rice.”，科学家认为这种特殊能力并非只有水稻拥有，因此接下来最可能讨论其他植物种子是否也具备该能力。 1 / 6 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
