Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.
Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.
Bruce Peterson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and the books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”
Members leave books-on park benches (长椅) and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. A Bookcrosser, the person who finds their book, will go to the site and record where they found it.
People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.
BookCrossing is part of a trend (趋势) among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual. The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries
18. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph

20. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it
A. Meet other readers to discuss it.
B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.
C. Pass it on to another reader.
D. Mail it back to its owner.
21. What is the text mainly about

When a leafy plant is under attack it doesn't sit quietly. Back in 1983,two scientists,Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that young maple trees (枫树) getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants send through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds,VOCs for short.
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It's a plant's way of crying out. But is anyone listening Obviously. Because we can watch the neighbors react.
Some plants give out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They give out smells designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was launching now becomes lunch.
In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.
Does this mean that plants talk-to-each-other Scientists don't know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so in effect,was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to "overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged,but it wasn’t a true, intentional back and forth.
Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago,imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate (亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There's a whole lot going on.
22. What does a plant do when it is under attack
A. It makes noises. B. It stands quietly.
C. It gets help from other plants. D. It sends out certain chemicals.
23. What will happen when the attackers' natural enemies arrive
A. The attackers will get attacked
B. The insects will gather under the table.
C. The plants will get ready to fight back.
D. The attackers will give out smelly chemicals.
24. Scientists find from their studies that plants can_______
A. talk to one another on purpose
B. warn people of a coming danger
C. protect themselves against insects
D. help their neighbors who are under attack
25. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. The world is changing faster than ever.
B. People have stronger senses than before.
C. We don't fully understand the world.
D. People in Darwin's time were more imaginative

Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.
Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.
Bruce Peterson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and the books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”
Members leave books-on park benches (长椅) and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. A Bookcrosser, the person who finds their book, will go to the site and record where they found it.
People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.
BookCrossing is part of a trend (趋势) among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual. The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries
18. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph
A. To explain what they are.
B. To introduce BookCrossing.
C. To stress the importance of reading.
D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.
19. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. The book.
B. The bench.
C. The letter.
D. The identification number.
20. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it
A. Meet other readers to discuss it.
B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.
C. Pass it on to another reader.
D. Mail it back to its owner.
21 What is the text mainly about
A. Traditional reading habits.
B. Touring places on the Internet.
C. A trend of reading electronic books.
D. A new way to connect readers.
【答案】18. B 19. A 20. C 21. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个叫做BookCrossing的网站的功能和设置该网站的目的。
【18题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.”（现在 网站改变了传统的图书群观念。）推知，作者在第一段提到书群是为了介绍BookCrossing这个网站。故选B项。
【19题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段的“Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.”（然后这个人把书放在公共场所，希望这本书可以有一个奇旅，与每一位找到它的新读者一起远行。）可知，it是指前半句提到的同一事物，即“the book”。故选A项。
【20题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Members leave books-on park benches (长椅) and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. A Bookcrosser, the person who finds their book, will go to the site and record where they found it.”（成员可以把书留在公园长凳上，公交车上，火车站和咖啡厅。一个Bookcrosser，找到他们的书的人，会到现场记录他们在哪里找到书的。）和第五段“Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.”（Bruce Peterson说，这个想法是为了让人们不要自私，把一本书放在家里的书架上收集灰尘。）推知，让书蒙尘是一种自私的行为，网站BookCrossing的目的是鼓励人们与别人分享图书，一个Bookcrosser记录他们在哪里找到书也是为了让其他人能够找到书并且阅读，可得出一个Bookcrosser会把书传递给另一个读者。故选C项。
【21题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了一个叫做BookCrossing的网站的功能和设置该网站的目的。再结合第三段的“The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read BookCrossing combines both.”（改变你人生的两件事情是你遇到的人和读到的书。BookCrossing 把两者联系在一起。）可知，该网站可以把人和书联系在一起。因此文章是关于一个把读者联系起来的新方法——BookCrossing网站。故选D项。

When a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn't sit quietly. Back in 1983,two scientists,Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that young maple trees (枫树) getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants send through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds,VOCs for short.
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It's a plant's way of crying out. But is anyone listening Obviously. Because we can watch the neighbors react.
Some plants give out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They give out smells designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was launching now becomes lunch.
In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.
Does this mean that plants talk-to-each-other Scientists don't know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so in effect,was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to "overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged,but it wasn’t a true, intentional back and forth.
Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago,imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate (亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There's a whole lot going on.
22. What does a plant do when it is under attack
A. It makes noises. B. It stands quietly.
C. It gets help from other plants. D. It sends out certain chemicals.
23. What will happen when the attackers' natural enemies arrive
A. The attackers will get attacked
B. The insects will gather under the table.
C. The plants will get ready to fight back.
D. The attackers will give out smelly chemicals.
24. Scientists find from their studies that plants can_______
A. talk to one another on purpose
B. warn people of a coming danger
C. protect themselves against insects
D. help their neighbors who are under attack
25. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. The world is changing faster than ever.
B. People have stronger senses than before.
C. We don't fully understand the world.
D. People in Darwin's time were more imaginative
【答案】22. D 23. A 24. C 25. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，当多叶植物受到攻击时，它们不会坐以待毙，会发出VOCs，以此来保护自己或者与周围的植物通过化学物质进行交流。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“reported that young maple trees (枫树) getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. (据报道，幼小的枫树被昆虫咬伤后会散发出邻近植物能够闻到的特殊气味。这些化学物质来自工厂受损的部分，似乎是一种警报)”可知，当植物受到伤害时，会分泌一种特殊的化学物质。故选D。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was launching now becomes lunch. (一旦它们到达，局面就会逆转，攻击者现在变成了午餐)”可知，当攻击者的天敌到来时，攻击者则会成为天敌的午餐，即就会成为被攻击的对象。故选A。
【24题详解】
细节理解题，根据倒数第三段“In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do. (在一个又一个的研究中，似乎这些化学对话帮助了邻居们。第一个植物的损失通常更严重，但相对而言，邻居们更安全，因为他们听到了警报，知道该怎么做)”可知，植物在必要的时候会通过分泌化学物质，通知周围的植物保持警惕，即植物会保护自已而免遭昆虫的侵扰。故选C。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate (亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There’s a whole lot going on.(想象一个比我们看到和听到的世界更繁忙，更嘈杂，更亲密的世界。我们的感官很脆弱。有很多事在发生)”可知，这个世界远比我们看到或听到的更热闹、更亲密，我们认知能力有限，有很多事仍在继续发生，远比我们想象的要复杂。故选C。

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。密西西比州的一所小学门口，爸爸们组成了人形状隧道和孩子们一起迎接开学的第一天。
【详解】1.考查冠词。句意：密西西比小学的学生在上学的第一天，总是受到特殊的欢迎。welcome“迎接；接待；欢迎”为可数名词，此处指学生们在开学时总是能受到一个特别的欢迎，表示泛指，且special是以辅音音素开头的词，所以用不定冠词，故填a。
2.考查动词时态。句意：去年，在密西西比州的Jackson，大约20位父亲站在Barack H. Obama Magnet 小学的校门前欢迎孩子们。结合句中last year可知，此处描述的为过去的事情，所以此处使用一般过去时。故填welcomed。

4.考查名词复数。句意：欢迎仪式的照片被张贴在学校网站上，照片显示学生们喜欢在“隧道”中奔跑。空白处在句中作主语，结合句中were可知，此处要用名词复数。photo“照片”为可数名词，其复数形式为photos。因处于句首，使用首字母大写。故填Photos。

7.考查比较级。句意：威廉姆斯说，今年有些父亲是学校校长教过的大学毕业生，这使得学校比以前更受欢迎。结合设空后than可知，空白处要用比较级。special“特别的”为形容词，其比较级为more special，故填more special。
8.考查非谓语动词。句意：学生们似乎很喜欢这种欢迎。固定短语：seem to do sth.“似乎做某事”，结合设空前seemed，所以此处要用不定式。故填to enjoy。
9.考查形容词。句意：虽然开学季对一些学生来说很无聊，但是对于密西西比的孩子们来说却不是。空白处为表语，句子主语为back-to-school season，所以此处要用bore的形容词形式boring，修饰物，用v+ing形式的形容词。故填boring。
10.考查固定搭配。句意：多亏了这些可爱的爸爸们，现在是值得期待的(开学季的）时刻了。look forward to“期待；盼望”为固定短语，结合句中提示，故填to。

65. I visit the supermarket ________ (regular) to buy things for daily use. (所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】regularly
【解析】
【详解】考查副词。句意：我常常去这家超市买一些日常用品。修饰动词visit应用副词形式。故填regularly。
66. I was afraid the sickness had reduced my________ (strong). (所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】strength
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意：我担心这病削弱了我的体力。分析句子结构可知此处位于形容词性物主代词之后，因此需要填入名词。根据句意此处表示“体力”；strong的名词为strength，表示“体力”不可数。故填strength。
67. The media has a________ (power) influence on public opinion. (所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】powerful
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：媒体对舆论有很大的影响。分析句子结构可知此处位于名词之前修饰名词；因此需要填入形容词作定语。power的形容词为powerful。故填powerful。
68. His speech was__________(inspire) and touched my heart. (所给单词适当形式填空)
【答案】inspiring
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：他的演讲鼓舞人心，触动了我的心。空前“was”为系动词，所填空应是形容词作表语。inspire，动词，意为“鼓励，鼓舞”，结合主语“His speech”指物，应是其形容词“inspiring”，“鼓舞人心的，启发灵感的”。故填inspiring。
69. The friends meet every year at an________ (appoint) place. (所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】appointed
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：朋友们每年在一个指定的地方见面。空白后的词为名词，所以此处要用形容词作定语修饰名词。appointed“约定的”为形容词，故填appointed。
70. Different people have different________(personal) and we should learn to respect the difference. (所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】personalities
【解析】
【详解】考查名词复数。句意：不同的人有不同的个性，我们应该学会尊重不同。根据设空前形容词different可知，此处要用名词；结合前文“Different people”可知，此处指人们的性格不同，所以要用复数形式。personal“个人的”为形容词，其名词形式为personality，为可数名词，复数形式为personalities，故填personalities。
