A young woman inherited(继承) a beautiful garden from her grandmother. She loved gardening too and was very proud of her garden.
One day, she saw a picture of a very beautiful plant in a book, and wanted that for her garden. She ordered it and planted it at the base(底部) of the stone wall in her backyard. She took great care of the plant, which grew quickly and had beautiful green leaves on it.
Months passed, but not a single flower bloomed(开花) on the plant. She became angry, and almost cut down the vine(藤). Moments later, her neighbor called and said, "Thank you so much for the beautiful flowers. You have no idea how much I enjoy looking at the blooms(花朵) of the vine that you have planted". Hearing this, the young girl rushed to the neighbor's side of the wall and saw the most beautiful flowers in bloom.
All the care she had given to the plant paid off ! Only the vine had crept through the narrow opening in her stone wall. And for that reason, it did not bear any flowers on her side of the wall but did generously on the other side.
Just because you cannot see the good results of your efforts does not mean that they bear no fruit.

A. 付清 B. 偿还 C. 得到回报 D.取得成功.

A. regretful B. joyful C. angry D. disappointed

C
When you watch TV programmes about wild animals, it is surprising to see how an antelope(羚羊) can run away from a strong lion. In the wild, everyone has its own way to protect itself. Even plants have their own ways to fight off enemies(敌人).
Over millions of years, plants have developed their own defense system(防卫系统). Chemicals(化学物质)
are often used by plants to survive. By making their leaves, flowers, roots and fruits poisonous(有毒) to enemies,
plants can fight back.
One such plant is the Golden Wattle tree. The British scientist David Cameron has found when an animal eats the tree's leaves, the amount(量) of poison(毒) increases(增加) in the other leaves. “It's like the injured leaves telephoning the others to fight together against the enemy," he said.
The tree also sends defense messages to neighbouring plants by giving out a special smell. Golden Wattle trees in the nearby 45 metres will get the message and produce more poison within 10 minutes. Now, if an enemy eats too many of the trees' leaves, he will die.
Every kind of plant or tree is good at producing a special set of chemicals. Herbivores, like rabbits, can safely eat the leaves of one tree, but they may be poisoned by its neighbour.
In this way,plants have not only developed their own defense system, but also shared it with others. This makes it impossible for a single animal to destroy(毁坏) even a small area of forest.
7. From the second paragraph, we can learn that______________.
A. plants can do nothing against their enemies B. chemicals are quite useful for plants to survive
C. an antelope can always run away from a strong lion D. leaves, roots, flowers and fruits of plants are poisonous
8. If animals eat one Golden Wattle tree's leaves, the tree can_________________.
A. kill the animals with a special smell B. tell other trees to come to protect it
C. warn other trees against the animals on the phone D. send defense messages to the neighbouring plants
9. The last paragraph of the passage suggests that this kind of defense system is_________________.
A. bad for animals B. good for forests C. helpful to some animals D. harmful to forests
10. Where is this passage probably taken from
A. An advertisement. B. A storybook. C. A tour guide. D. A science magazine.

六、任务型阅读:
Some rays (光线) of sunlight are harmful to our eyes. Even on cloudy days, the sun’s rays can still damage (损害) our eyes . Besides ,damage to our eyes comes from other things as well, such as re ection (反射),
especially when we are around water, sand, or even snow.
This is the reason why people who often go out wearing sunglasses for protection. It is advised that we wear sunglasses whenever we are outdoors during the day. Some people may wonder, though, how sunglasses protect our eyes.
The secret is that the coating (涂层) and the lenses(镜片) are used. Sunglasses are tinted (染色) with various colors; each color tint is used to prevent a certain type of light. With coating, UVB rays are unable to pass through the lenses. The coating and the special design of the lenses can help greatly to protect our eyes from harmful rays.
Moreover, sunglass lenses are designed with an anti-re ective coating to reduce re ection from water and snow. This reflection prevention is good to drivers and people who take part in water and snow sports.
On the market, there are lots of sunglasses that are not of good quality, which not only have no effect(作用) on protecting our eyes from harmful rays, but can also do more damage to our eyes. Therefore, when you buy sunglasses, you should ask the person who is selling them whether the sunglasses are of a good quality. If they say they do not know, you should go to another store until you can nd a shopkeeper that can tell you which pair offers the best protection.
