Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.
If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants.
Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit.
Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores (胚芽). Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.
46. The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______.
A. plants are important for life B. plants cannot grow without air
C. there are many plants in the world D. we can not live without water
47. Plants can make food from______.
A. flower, water and air B. water, sunlight and air
C. air, water and soil D. air, sun and light
48. What can we infer (推断) from the passage
A Of all living things animals are most important
B. Spores are seeds
C. All fruits of flowering plants have seeds
D. Without plants, man will die out
49. This passage may be taken from______.
A. a medicine book B. a novel
C. a science magazine D. an experiment report
50. The underlined word “protected” in the third paragraph can be replaced by ______.
A. damaged B. polluted C. prevented D. guarded

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了儿子决定不上大学，这样他离开学校后就可以专注于他的乐队，从事音乐事业；爷爷和爸爸极力反对并建议其要仔细考虑，认为去上大学，同时在乐队演奏是很好的选择。
【51题详解】
考查名词。句意：星期五晚上，爷爷和爸爸正在客厅里下棋，儿子走进房间和爸爸聊起他最近的决定。设空处作介词的宾语，应用名词的形式，根据空前的限定词“latest(最近的)”以及“To Father’s surprise, Son has decided not to go to university(父亲吃惊的是，儿子决定不上大学了)”可知，此处指的是儿子决定不上大学的决定，设空处应用名词单数的形式。故填decision。
【52题详解】
考查介词。句意：令父亲惊讶的是，儿子决定不上大学，这样他离开学校后就可以专注于他的乐队，从事音乐事业。固定短语focus on专注于。故填on。
【53题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意见上题解析。分析句子的结构可知，该句为状语从句的省略，原句为：when he is leaving school，当从句的主语和主句的主语一致，且含有be动词时，状语从句的主语和be动词可以省略，故填leaving。

【56题详解】
考查with的复合结构。句意：儿子和父亲都不听爷爷的话，爷爷只好提高嗓门让他们安静下来。分析句子的结构可知，此句为“with+宾语+宾补”的复合结构，宾语words和设空处之间是逻辑的被动关系，应用动词的过去分词的形式作宾补。故填ignored。

Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.
If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants.
Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit.
Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores (胚芽). Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.
46. The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______.
A. plants are important for life B. plants cannot grow without air
C. there are many plants in the world D. we can not live without water
47. Plants can make food from______.
A. flower, water and air B. water, sunlight and air
C. air, water and soil D. air, sun and light
48. What can we infer (推断) from the passage
A. Of all living things animals are most important
B Spores are seeds
C. All fruits of flowering plants have seeds
D. Without plants, man will die out
49. This passage may be taken from______.
A. a medicine book B. a novel
C. a science magazine D. an experiment report
50. The underlined word “protected” in the third paragraph can be replaced by ______.
A. damaged B. polluted C. prevented D. guarded
