Young animals generally spread by walking or flying. Because plants dont have that ability, they must somehow hitchhike（搭顺风车）. Some plant seeds scatter by blowing in the wind or floating on water. Many other plant species, though, trick an animal into carrying their seeds. How do they do this? They enclose the seeds within a tasty fruit and advertise the fruits ripeness by its colour or smell. The hungry animal collects and swallows the fruit, walks or flies off, and later spits out the seeds somewhere far from its parent tree. Seeds can thereby be carried for thousands of miles. It may surprise you to learn that plant seeds can resist digestion. In fact, some seeds actually require passage through an animals body before they can grow. Wild strawberries offer a good example of hitchhiking tactics. When strawberry seeds are still young and not yet ready to be planted, the surrounding fruit is green, sour and hard. When the seeds finally mature, the berries turn red, sweet, and tender. The change in the berries colour serves as a signal to birds which then eat the strawberries, fly off, and eventually spit out the seeds. Naturally, strawberry plants didnt set out with a conscious intention of attracting birds only when their seeds were ready to be dispersed. Nor did birds set out with the intent of planting strawberries. Rather,strawberry plants evolved through natural selection. The sweeter and redder the final strawberry, the more birds spread its ripe seeds; the greener and more sour the young strawberry, the fewer birds destroyed the seeds by eating berries before the seeds were ready.16. What does the underlined word “dispersed” in the third paragraph mean? A. Spread. B. Eaten.C. Born.D. Planted.17. For plants, which of the following is NOT a way of spreading their offspring to suitable areas? A. Hitchhiking. B. Blowing in the wind. C. Floating on water. D. Tracking an animal.18. Which strategy does the example of wild strawberries describe?A. The conscious intent of attracting birds.B. Spreading by walking.C. Spreading by flying.D. The strategy of taking a lift.19. Why does the author describe how strawberry seeds are spread?A. To show plants are good at adapting to the environment.B. To show strawberrys special way.C. To show the plant has different ways of spreading seeds.D. To show the mystery of plant.20. Whats the passage mainly about? A. How animals disperse offspring.B. How plants disperse their offspring. C. Plant evolution.D. Plants hitchhiking on animals.BEven plant can run a fever, especially when theyre under attack by insects or disease. But unlike human, plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet away straight up. A decade ago, adopting the infrared（红外线）scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide（杀虫剂）spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that dont have pest（害虫）problems.Even better, Paleys Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eyes. Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running “fevers”. Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paleys company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States,” says George Oerther of Texas A& M. Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade. But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.21. Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are _.A. sprayed with pesticidesB. facing an infrared scannerC. in poor physical conditionD. exposed to excessive sun rays22. In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to _.A. estimate the damage to the cropsB. measure the size of the affected areaC. draw a color-coded mapD. locate the problem area23. Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by _.A. resorting to spot-sprayingB. consulting infrared scanning expertsC. transforming poisoned rainD. detecting crop problems at an early stage24. The application of infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with some difficulties. For example, _. A. the lack of official support B. its high cost C. the lack of financial support D. its failure to help increase production25. Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of _. A. the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produce B. growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on crops C. the forceful promotion by the Department of AgricultureD. full support from agricultural experts答案与解析1111. A 句意：“我决定到澳大利亚去旅游度暑假。”“要是我能和你一起去就好了。”if only“要是就好了”。2. D 句意：“你总是精力充沛，你能告诉我秘诀吗？”“每天进行足够的锻炼。”energy“精力”；power“权力，能力”；strength“力量”；force“军事力量，强力，暴力”。3. B 句意：有大量证据证明，音乐活动和大脑的不同部位有关。考查现在分词作定语。本题为there be句型。主语为evidence，而“evidence”与“indicate”之间构成主动关系，用indicating作定语修饰evidence，故选B。4. C 句意：这些年来我一直为别人工作，我希望成立自己的公司。set up“建立，设立”； turn up“出现”；fix up“安排，修理”；make up“打扮，虚构”。5. B 句意：无论我何时遇到她这种事常发生，她都会以甜蜜的微笑向我打招呼。_was fairly often是个定语从句，关系词在从句中充当主语，代替Whenever I met her。6. D 句意：我出生在路易斯安那的新奥尔良，这个城市的名字会使我们在脑海中产生一幅含有美丽的树、绿色的草的画面。_name will create a picture of beautiful trees and green grass in our mind是a city的一个定语从句，关系词在从句中作定语修饰name，所以用whose引导定语从句。7. D 句意：他们已经赢得了最后三场比赛，这真使我感到惊讶。_I find a bit surprising是个定语从句，关系词在从句中充当find的宾语，先行词是空前的整个句子。8. C 句意：我的父母把我送到一个学校，在这个学校规章制度和学习科目是同样重要的教育项目。where此处引导定语从句，修饰a school。9. B 句意：他的妹妹在1998年离开家，自从那时就没有音讯了。由句意和since可知用现在完成时，且用否定结构。10. D 句意：他那么有力气以至于能干六个普通人的活儿。force“（武力）强迫”；energy“（人的）精力”；power“权力，能力，势力”；strength“（人的）力气”。11. C 句意：他一直努力在商业上取得成功。struggle for success“为获得成功而努力”。12. B 句意：“你知道莉莉去伦敦了吗？”“哦，难怪这几天没看到她。”no wonder“难怪”；no doubt“毫无疑问”。13. D 句意：她边做着饭边看护着孩子。make eyes at“对暗送秋波”；have an eye for“对有鉴赏眼光”；shut ones eyes to“视而不见”；keep an eye on“注意，留神，看管”。14. D 句意：你一次能从图书馆借两本书。at one time“曾经”；at that time“在那时”；at any time“随时，任何时候”；at a time“一次，每次”。15. A 句意：如果他们的市场运作计划成功，那么他们的销售量将会增加20%。条件状语从句中用一般现在时表将来，主句必须用一般将来时。increase by“增加了”；increase to“增加到”。16. A 本文讲的是植物成熟之后种子的传播。此句话意思：草莓在成熟的时候不是有意吸引鸟儿来帮它们传播种子，因此dispersed的意思是spread“传播”。17. D 第一段第三句出现hitchhike，第四句出现blowing in the wind和floating on water。18. D 草莓成熟之后，被鸟啄食，因而种子被带到各地。这种传播并不是有意识的（A），也不是通过走路（B）或飞行（C）。19. C 第一段讲述了植物种子的传播有多种方式，第二段中的草莓是其中一个例子。20. B 文章讲述了植物种子的传播。21. C 依据文章第二段an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running “fevers”.说明植物在发“高烧”，也就是说，“身体状况”不佳时才会散发热，所以选项C符合题意。22. D 本题要求判断使用红外线扫描技术的目的。依据文章第二段“showing where plants were running “fevers”. Farmers could then spot-spray”说明目的是确定有问题的区域，以使农民有针对性地喷杀虫剂。显然，选项D（确定有问题的地域）为最佳选项。23. A 依据文章第二段最后一句“Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.（采取点喷，农民们可以节省平时用量的50%至70%的杀虫剂。）”可知选项A符合题意。24. C 依据文章第三段的第一句“The bad news is that Palelys company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find.”从中可以看出红外线扫描技术应用于农业遇到了一些问题，原因有两个：一是农民对新技术的抵制，二是难以找到长期赞助商。文章最后一句“But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.”同样可以推出C正确。25. B 依据文章第三段“But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation.”可知B项（出于对杀虫剂过度使用的担心）符合题意111
