Here are some interesting facts about flowering plants.‎ Most plants grow flowers each year, but some take much longer. The century plant grows only one flower after many years and then it dies! Even more amazing is a plant called Puya raimondii from South America. It doesn’t grow a flower until it is 150 years old, and after that it dies.‎ The smallest flowering plant in the world is thought to be the common watermeal. Its leaves are only 1mm across!‎ Bamboo has amazing flowering habits. There are many different kinds of bamboos in the world. And they have different flowering habits. A few grow flowers each year, but most wait much longer. What is amazing is that all bamboos of the same kind will flower at exactly the same times, wherever they are growing! Nobody knows how they can do this.‎ The white flower of the Amazon water lily is the size of a football, and the flower turns purple after it has been pollinated(授粉).‎ The Caucasian lime can grow in Britain. Its flowers are poisonous to bees. If they touch the flowers, they will die.‎ ‎24. Which of the following plants needs the longest time to grow flowers?‎ A. The bamboo. B. The watermeal. ‎ C. The Puya raimondii. D. The Caucasian lime.‎ ‎25.

The same kind of bamboo will grow flowers at the same time ‎26. The Amazon water lily’s white flowers can_______.‎ A. change color B. grow long C. kill bees D. attract insects ‎27. Which part of the Caucasian lime is dangerous to bees?‎ A. The leaf. B. The flower. C. The fruit. D. The root.‎ C The regular editor(编辑) of the agricultural paper was going off for a holiday, and I took his place.‎ It was an easy job since I’ve been in the editorial business for fourteen years. I worked all week with untiring pleasure and waited a day to see whether my effort was going to attract any notice. As I went to the office in the morning, a group of men stood outside, watching me with interest, and I heard one or two of them say: “That’s him!” I was naturally pleased.‎ ‎ After a while, an old gentleman entered my office and asked me, “Are you the new editor?”‎ ‎ I said I was.‎ ‎ “Have you ever edited an agricultural paper before?”‎ ‎ “No,” I said. “ This is my first try.”‎ ‎ “I’d like to read you this: ‘Turnips(大头菜）should never be pulled; it injures them. It is much better to send a boy up and let him shake the tree.’”‎ ‎ “Now, what do you think of that?”‎ ‎ “I think it is good. Every year millions and millions of turnips are damaged ‎ by being pulled. If they had sent a boy up to shake the trees!”‎ ‎“Shake your grandmother! Turnips don’t grow on trees!”‎ ‎“Oh, they don’t? Well, who said they did? The language was intended to be figurative(比喻的）.”‎ Then this old person tore his paper into pieces, and went out.‎ Pretty soon after this, the editor came in, looking sad and confused.‎ He said, “What put it into your head that you could edit a paper of this nature? You talk of the moulting(换羽毛）season for cows; and you say that clams(蛤蜊) will lie quiet if music were played to them. Nonsense! Clams always lie quiet and they care nothing whatever about music. Ah, heavens and earth, friend! Why didn’t you tell me you didn’t know anything about agriculture?”‎ 28. How did the author feel at the first sight of the men?‎ A. Frightened. B. Confused. C. Angry. D. Happy.‎ ‎29. What can we infer about the author?‎ A. He was full of creative ideas. ‎ B. He was a newcomer to the editing business C. He had no experience in editing agricultural papers.‎ D. He couldn’t tell the difference between certain plants.‎ ‎ 30. Why did the old gentleman read the article to the author?‎ A. To ask for the author’s opinion.‎ B. To point out the author’s mistake.‎ C. To find out if it was written by the author.‎ D. To discuss the use of language with the author.‎ ‎31. What was the editor’s reaction to the author?‎ A. He expressed thanks to the author.‎ B. He was strongly dissatisfied with the author.‎ C. He praised the author for his humorous language.‎ D. He asked the author to improve his agricultural knowledge.‎ D The American Thanksgiving holiday is on Thursday. Many people will get together with family members for a big meal. It is a time to celebrate family, friends and everything there is to be thankful for.‎ But some people do not look forward to spending a lot of time with their family. It can be stressful. Family members can start arguments with each other. Some people ‎ at the meal may have conflicting(冲突的）political beliefs. Conflict can even find its way into the kitchen, where all the cooking takes place. There is a saying called “too many cooks in the kitchen.” This means that sometimes, if many people are trying to do a project together, it does not turn out as well as it could have if only one person were in charge. That is why people are offering Thanksgiving survival ideas on Twitter.‎ Rick Irwin had one. “Say that you’re letting the dog out and use it as an excuse to disappear for several hours.” Tracy Brooks had a suggestion for limiting Thanksgiving dinner responsibilities. She wrote: “Be the last to arrive and the first to leave.”‎ Since there is so much food at the Thanksgiving meal, Christine Turner suggested forgetting about your diet and wearing loose clothing. But, one fitness expert said people do not have to give up on their diets during the big meal. They can prepare foods that have few calories(卡路里). For example, they could bake some foods instead of frying them in oil.‎ But other people are looking forward to the holiday. Sara Marie Brenner wondered why people need to “survive” Thanksgiving, at all. She wrote: “I enjoy the holiday.”‎ ‎32. Why do some people dislike having Thanksgiving with their family?‎ A. Some disagreements may arise.‎ B. They live far away from each other.‎ C. They have distant family relationships.‎ D. The traditional cooking takes up too much time.‎ ‎33. Which of the following is an example of “ too many cooks in the kitchen”?‎ A. Many friends came to help but ruined my plan.‎ B. Nobody is willing to help me when I’m in trouble.‎ C. I don’t know who to choose from the many helpers.‎ D. Many cooks don’t know more about cooking than I.‎ ‎34. What advice does Christine offer on Thanksgiving diet?‎ A. Preparing low-calorie foods. B. Limiting food intake.‎ C. Enjoying the food. D. Baking foods.‎ ‎35. What is Sara’s attitude towards Thanksgiving?‎ A. Worried. B. Positive. C. Critical. D. Uninterested.‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Taking good notes is a time-saving skill that will help you to become a better student in several ways. 36 Second, your notes are excellent materials to refer to when you are studying for a test. Third, note-taking offers variety to your study time and helps you to hold your interest.‎ You will want to take notes during classroom discussions and while reading a textbook or doing research for a report. 37 whenever or however you take notes, keep in mind that note-taking is a selective process（过程）. 38 ‎ The following methods may work best for you.‎ ‎• Read the text quickly to find the main facts and ideas in it.‎ ‎• Carefully read the text and watch for words that can show main points and supporting facts.‎ ‎• Write your notes in your own words.‎ ‎• 39 ‎ ‎• Note any questions or ideas you may have about what was said or written.‎ As you take notes, you may want to use your own shorthand (速记).

I’m writing to tell you my trouble with my parents.‎ In my opinion, my parents are too strict with me. They expect too much of me but I really can’t live up to their expectations. Besides, they often compare me with ‎ my neighbor who is considered better, which makes me rather upset. And they even don’t allow me to watch TV or surf the Internet because they think it’s a waste of time. What’s more, I can’t make friends with girls because it may influence my study. In one word, I feel that there is a wide generation gap between us, and therefore we can’t communicate with each other freely, and we are even unable to exchange views.‎ Up till now I haven’t found a good solution to these problems. I would be grateful if you could do me a favor to talk to my parents and persuade them to change the way of education. I’m looking forward to your reply.‎ Best wishes,‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua
