Some of these belong to a special class of plants called fungi.Fungi may appear almost everywhere. They usually grow in wet places where they can get food and water easily. Because fungi do not have green leaves to make their own food, fungi must take their food from animals, other plants or water. Some fungi live on dead or rotting wood, while others grow on living trees or in dirt or moss(苔藓). Mushrooms (蘑菇) are the best-known fungi.There are many kinds of mushrooms appearing in all shapes and sizes. For example, cauliflower mushrooms are found in forests from July to October. They can grow to be as heavy as fifty pounds! They grow at the foot of trees. Squirrels bread(松茸) is another kind of wild mushroom. Its appearance and use can explain its name. These fungi look like small golden cakes. Squirrels can easily eat them or carry them off to their hole to eat later.The mushrooms in food stores are carefully grown by people and they are safe to eat. People are warned never to touch or taste wild mushrooms, because some of them are deadly. Even less dangerous ones can still make a person very sick.根据短文内容回答下列问题：（1）From what can fungi take food?_（2）What is squirrels bread?_（3）将划线句子译成汉语。_（4）将划线句子译成汉语。_（5）给短文拟一个适当的标题。_四、 任务型阅读 (共1题；共25分)25. （25分）阅读理解EDear Kids Advice MagazineJune 10, 2017Hi, my name is Evan and being the eldest child in the family surely has its disadvantages. First of all, I have to share all my toys and games with my younger Siblings, William and Julia. Of course, they dont need to return the favour because Im totally uninterested in their things. Besides that, Julia and William are always hanging around me. Its especially annoying when I have a friend over. We look for a secluded place in the house where they cant disturb (打扰) us, but within minutes, theyve found us and are asking to join in.I just cant seem to get a moments peace. At meal times,I have to eat whatever is on my plate regardless of the portion size or taste. William and Julia only need to try one bite when its not their favorite food. Not only this, but Im expected to be cooperative (合作的,配台的) at all times because Im the oldest and need to be a role model for them.It doesnt seem fair either that I have more chores to do around the house than Julia and William put together. Plus, when it comes to practising our musical instruments,I have to practise more than double the time. Oh, and the worst part of it all is the huge quantities of homework I get compared to them.Im feeling rather annoyed wilh my sibling situation. Can you please write back with some advice?Yours trulyEvan Smith（1）How many children are there in Evans family?（2）What does the underlined phrase a secluded place mean in Chinese?（3）Why is Evan expected to be cooperatwe at all times?（4）How did Evan feel when he wrote this letter?（5）Evan thinks many things unfair, but in fact some of them are not his brother and sisters fault.
