Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
A tree has roots.People have roots too.If you get to the root of a problem,you will solve it.It’s the same thing with words.Dig deeply into a big,unfamiliar word and you will understand where it came from.
As readers,especially those reading in a second language,we need to deal with the text as if we were detectives looking for information to unlock the unknown.Like any good detective arriving on the crime scene,the first thing to do when meeting a new and difficult word is to judge the situation,to look at everything that is known and see if it helps us to understand what it means.
As you know,prefixes (前缀) and suffixes (后缀)can be added to the beginning or end of words to change the meaning.Know them,and you will have the word building power.But root words are the key.Take time to learn a few of these,put them in your memory,and you will become a master word detective.
Let’s look at one common root word used in English. “Alter” from the Latin word means “other”.When you meet this root word,you know that the bigger word has something to do with “other”.Examine the word “alternate”.Can you find the Latin root in it
·If you and your friend like to eat out,first you pay and the other pays the next time.You are alternating paying.
·If you go to the movies on alternate Saturdays,you go on one Saturday,but not the other Saturday.
·If you have no alternative,you have no other choice.
Learn as many root words as possible in the language you are studying.Then use your “rooting for words” skills.Like any new skill,practice and hard work are always paid back.

Last month we visited Perth, the biggest city in Western Australia, and went to a wild flower exhibition.There we saw a large number of wild flowers we had never seen before.We had a wonderful time.Perth is famous for its beautiful wild flowers.In spring, Perth has the wild flower exhibition.After visiting Perth, we spent a day in the countryside.We sat down and had a rest near a path at the foot of a hill.It was quiet and we enjoyed ourselves.Suddenly we heard bells ringing at the top of the hill.What we saw made us pick up all our things and run back to the car as quickly as we could.There were about three hundred sheep coming towards us down the path.

actually advantages water other tell find result hear many silent
Do you believe a rose plant says “I want some water” Maybe you will say this can’t be true.
In fact, plants are not always 1.silent.A recent study has found plants shout when they are in need of 2.water or having their stems(茎) cut.“Even in a quiet field, there are 3.actually some sounds that carry information.However, the pitch(音高) is too high for people to 4.hear,” said Lilach Hadany, a professor from Tel Aviv University.
The researchers used microphones to record some tomato plants and found that stressed plants send out 5.more sounds than unstressed plants.“When tomatoes are not stressed at all, they are very quiet,” Professor Hadany said.They also made a machine in 6.telling the differences between thirsty plants and cut plants.
The 7.result shows that when the causes of stress change, they shout differently.After the team recorded many kinds of other plants, they 8.found that many plants like corn, wheat and grape plants send out sounds when they are under stress, too.
“There is a possibility that a lot of communication is happening,” Hadany said, “because 9.other plants may hear the call of the stressed plants.”
Sound recordings of plants could bring humans lots of 10.advantages, especially in farming.For example, people will make sure whether corn is getting enough water or where water is needed most without much difficulty.
