二、阅读理解
Next time you find yourself tending to your flower garden, you may want to stay quiet.The flowers are listening.
Israeli scientists discovered that the plants hear bees approaching and attempt to lure them in with sweeter nectar (花蜜).In several experiments, they found that playing audio recordings of buzzing bees around certain flowers will cause the sugar concentration in the nectar to rise by about 20% in less than five minutes.Such a rapid reaction by plants to sound had never previously been reported.Just to make a comparison, the researchers also tried a higher frequency noise—like that made by a mosquito or a bat—and the flowers did not respond.
The authors pointed out that the behavior is actually in line with the natural order of things, considering that a plant's ability to sense its environment and respond to it is critical for its survival.So, it seems that plants have some sort of consciousness.
This is not the first time that plants have reacted to the sound around them.In a 2009 study, the researchers found that women's voices help make plants grow faster.In that experiment, tomato plants were found to grow two inches taller when they were tended to by a female gardener.
What if we told you that a potato chip bag left on the floor of a break room could listen in on office gossip?As people were talking around the potato chip bag, they were sending tiny sound vibrations (震动) into the air.Those vibrations then hit lifeless objects around the room.If you had a camera that was zoomed in on one of those objects extremely closely, in theory, you could actually see the object move along with the vibrations.You could then feed that video into a computer program that could translate the vibrations and you could play back the audio of the conversation that just took place.
So the next time you're at the botanical garden or in a grocery aisle, be careful what you say.Someone—or something—might be listening.
1.Which of the following best explains “lure” in Paragraph 2
A.Shut.       B.Attract.
C.Trap. D.Lead.
2.What is vital for plants to survive
A.The soil they depend on to grow.
B.The audio recordings played to them.
C.The identification to the sound frequency.
D.The power to sense and react to the environment.
3.What can speed up the growth of plants
A.The women's voice.
B.The strength of the vibration.
C.The species of the young plant.
D.The number of the music played.
4.What is the main idea of the text
A.The frequency of vibrations determines plants' growth.
B.Sound vibrations can be processed into audio.
C.Buzzing bees can increase the production of nectar.
D.Plants or lifeless objects may have the ability to listen.
三、语法填空

She looks like any other schoolgirl, fresh faced and full of life.Sarah Thomas is looking forward to the challenge of her new A level course.But unlike her school friends, 16 year old Sarah is not spending half term 1. (rest).Instead, she is earning £6,500 a day as 2. model in New York.

Li Hua
一、单句语法填空
1.to attend
2.to be
3.have been given
4.to do
5.to be admitted
6.To improve
7.touched
8.Founded
9.Having been told
10.opened
11.Getting
12.Having received
13.exhausted
14.To make
ing
16.being shown
17.to be taken
18.guiding
二、阅读理解
1.B 词义猜测题。画线词所在句意为:以色列科学家发现,这种植物听到蜜蜂靠近的声音,就会用更甜的花蜜来引诱它们。因此画线词与attract“吸引”意思相近。故选B。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“a plant's ability to sense its environment and respond to it is critical for its survival”可知,感知环境并对环境作出反应的能力对植物生存至关重要。故选D。
3.A 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“the researchers found that women's voices help make plants grow faster”可知,女性的声音可以加快植物生长的速度。故选A。
4.D 主旨大意题。文章开头说植物听到蜜蜂靠近就会试图用更甜的花蜜来吸引它们,后面说薯片的包装袋可能会偷听办公室的闲聊,再结合文章最后一句“Someone—or something—might be listening.”可知,这句话总结了全文大意“植物或无生命物体可能有听的能力”,故选D。
三、语法填空
1.resting 考查固定搭配。spend time doing sth.是固定搭配,故填resting。
2.a 考查冠词。该空后面的model是可数名词单数,此处表示“作为一名模特”,故填a。
3.has been told/was told 考查动词时态和语态。此处动词tell与Sarah是被动关系,因为第二段在讲述父亲和Sarah的想法时都是用现在时,因此可以用现在完成时表达过去对现在的影响,故可以填has been told。此外,“被告知”这件事情发生在过去,故也可填was told。
4.who 考查定语从句。此句Sarah是主语,wants是主句谓语,因此可以判断此处是非限制性定语从句,先行词为Sarah,从句中缺主语且指人,故填who。
5.to prove 考查固定搭配。want to do是固定搭配,故填to prove。
6.education 考查词性转换。形容词性物主代词her后需用educate的名词形式,故填education。
7.invitations 考查名词复数。invitation是可数名词,前面有several修饰,要用复数形式,故填invitations。
8.in 考查介词。degree与介词in搭配,表示在某方面的学位。故填in。
9.comes 考查动词时态。全文以现在时为主,且school是第三人称单数,故填comes。
10.certainly 考查副词。此处fun是名词,但空处修饰整个句子,作状语,故填certainly。
四、书面表达
Dear Mr Smith,
It's nice to have a dog as your company.But I have to say that the continuous bark of your dog affects my normal life.
Every morning when I am sleeping soundly in the bed, your lovely dog never fails to wake me up.Your dog's bark also affects me badly when I am doing my homework or enjoying my leisure time.I cannot put up with it any more.
Therefore, I hope you can take the matter seriously and solve the problem for me.Your early reply will be appreciated.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
