A plant makes its own(自己的) food in its leaves. Water comes to the leaves through the roots(根). Air gets into the leaves through very small holes(洞). The green coloring in the leaves uses the water and air to make food for the plant. It also needs sunshine(阳光) because a plant can make food only when the sun is shining.
Animals and people could not live without green plants. They both eat plants. People and some animals also eat the meat of some animals, and these animals eat plants.

When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor, Dr. Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never invited us to play in his yard, but he was a very kind person.
When Dr. Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees. He owned a large field and wanted to make it a forest.
The good doctor had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He never watered his new trees. Once I asked why. He said that watering plants spoiled them, and that if you watered them, each baby tree would grow weaker and weaker, so you had to make things difficult for them and pick out the weaker trees early on.
He talked about how watering trees made for shallow（浅的）roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in search of water under the earth by themselves. Deep roots were very important.
So he never watered his trees. He’d planted an oak and, instead of watering it every morning, he’d beat it with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.
Dr. Gibbs died several years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I watched him plant about twenty-five years ago. They’re very big and strong now. I planted some trees a few years back and carried water to them for whole summer.
After two years of caring too much, whenever a cold wind blows in, they shake a lot.
Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. Mostly I pray（祈祷）that their lives will be easy. But lately I’ve been thinking that it’s time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to face difficulties. There’s always cold wind blowing somewhere, so what we need to do is to pray for roots that reach deep into the brave heart, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we could face it strongly and won’t be beaten down.We know from the passage the doctor .
| A．didn’t know how to plant trees at all |
| B．wasn’t good at his own medical job |
| C．had his own ways of planting trees |
| D．had nothing to do but plant trees |
When Dr. Gibbs said “…pick out the weaker trees early on.”, he meant that .
| A．some weak trees would be easily found out at the beginning |
| B．he would choose the weak trees to water earlier |
| C．the weak trees would be sent to his patients later |
| D．he would not plant weak trees so early anymore |
The passage tells us that the writer .
| A．should beat his trees with a rolled-up newspaper |
| B．didn’t often water his trees |
| C．didn’t have a large field |
| D．took too much care of his trees |
Which can be the best title of the passage?
| A．Watering trees |

| D．Father and his children |
What does it feel like to break a bone (骨头)? It’s different for everyone, but the pain is often sharp (严重). If the break is small, however, the person may not feel much pain at all. If you think that you or someone else has broken a bone, the most important things to do are to stay calm, make the hurt person comfortable, and call the doctor. Do not move the injured body part since movement could make it worse.
To treat the break, the doctor will need to take an X-ray. This gives the doctor the information he or she needs to set (接上) the bone: to put it back to its normal place. If the bone is large or it is broken in more than one place, the doctor may need to use metal pins (钢钉) to set it. After the bone has been set, the next step is usually putting on a cast, the special, hard thing that will keep the bone in place for a month or two.
Your bones are excellent at healing themselves. Broken bones will produce many new cells (细胞) and tiny blood vessels (血脉). These cover both ends of the broken part, and close up the break until the bone is as whole and strong as before.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
| A．How to Know if a Bone is Broken |
| B．How Broken Bones Heal Themselves |
| C．Common Causes (原因) of Broken Bones |
| D．What You Should Know about Broken Bones |
When someone breaks his bone, the following should be done except ______.
| A．asking the doctor for help | B．comforting the hurt person |
| C．moving the injured part | D．staying calm |
Which is the correct order to treat the break?
a. take an x-ray b. use metal pins to set it c. put it back to its normal place d. put on cast
| A．a→b→c→d | B．a→c→b→d | C．a→d→c→b | D．d→a→b→c |
The building is shaking. A woman with a baby in her arms is trying to open the door, but fails. Finding no way, she rushes into her bedroom and there they survive the earthquake.
In a factory building, as the workshop floor swings under the terrible shaking, workers run for safety. Some hide(隐藏) under the machines and survive , but others who try to run outside are killed by the falling ceilings.
These scenes, played by actors and actresses, are from a film of science education 《Making a Split Second Decision》 shown in 1998 on China Central TV in memory of Tangshan Earthquake.
By studying actual cases in the earthquake areas and scientific experiments, experts(专家)find that buildings remain untouched for the first 12 seconds of an earthquake.
In this short time, one has the best chance of surviving an earthquake by staying near the inside walls, in bedrooms and under beds, experts concluded in the film. “Earthquakes seem to catch the lives of those who run,” said many survivors in the earthquake areas, describing how their friends were killed on the doorways or along the stair steps as they tried to get out of the building.
Their advice was proved in the film, “Take a hiding-place where you are rather than run, unless you are sure you can reach a safe open place in ten seconds.”The word “survive” appears in the passage several times. It probably means in Chinese.
| A．遇难 | B．幸存 | C．恐惧 | D．摇晃 |
The workers who tried to run outside the building died because .
| A．the factory building was shaking terribly |
| B．they were making a film |
| C．they didn’t have enough time to run outside |
| D．they were too nervous |
The passage suggests that you should when an earthquake happens.
| A．cry for help |
| B．not move and lie on the floor at once |
| C．run down the steps as fast as you can |
| D．find a safe place and hide in at once or run out in ten seconds |
Where can we probably find this passage?
| A．In a magazine. | B．In an advertisement. |
| C．In a history book. | D．In a poster |
