These awful sudden risings of the sea are caused by earthquakes or underwater volcanic actions. The story of the boy Yuuki is the story of such a disaster. Yuuki

22、 lived with his family in a seaside village, below a small mountain. One day, as he played on top of the mountain, Yuuki felt a small earthquake but it was not strong enough to frighten anybody and passed quickly. Soon after, however, Yuuki noticed the sea darken and begin running away from the shor

23、e very fast, leaving behind wide stretches of beach that had never been seen before. With a grasp, Yuuki remembered reading that just before a terrible tsunami, the sea suddenly and quickly rolls backward. He ran to the beach, warning the villagers who had gathered to admire the new beach land. “Get

24、 back!” shouted the boy, “There is a terrible danger!”But no one listened. They laughed at him and continued playing in the new sand and watched the sea roll backward even more. Desperate, Yuuki could think of only one thing to do. He lit a tree branch, raced to the rice fields and began burning the

25、 harvested rice. Then he called out, “Fire! Fire! Everyone run to the mountain! Now!” When everyone reached the mountain-top, a villager cried out, “Yuuki is mad! I saw him set the fire.” Yuuki hung his head in shame, but said nothing as the villagers cursed him. Just then, someone shouted, “Look!”

26、In the distance what seemed to be a huge dark line was speeding towards the shore. As it got nearer the people realized the long thin line of darkness was the returning sea, towering like a mountain.The villagers watched in terror as the water struck the shore, smashing over their homes then tearing

27、 out the land as it receded.On the mountain everyone stared speechlessly at the destruction below.“Im sorry I burned the fields,” said Yuuki, his voice trembling.“Yuuki,” village-chief answered. “You saved us all.”The villagers cheered and raised Yuuki into the air. “We were going tocelebrate our ri

31、lebrate the rice harvest.C15、Human, Dont Come too CloseFrequent touching from humans may change plants genes and slow their growth.When we see babies or pets, we cant help gently touching them to show our love. And they give us happy feelings back. But a recent study shows that its different for pla

32、nts. A study, published in The Plant Journal, shows that plants dont “l(fā)ike” to be touched. Thats because touching changes their genes (基因) and, even worse, can slow their growth.Professor Jim Whelan of the La Trobe Institute in Australia gave an explanation. “The lightest touch from a human, animal,

33、 insect, or even plants touching each other in the wind, leads to a huge gene change in the plant,” Science Daily reported.In order to test the theory, the scientists did an experiment on plants. They grew a number of plants to the age of four weeks. Then they touched them with a paintbrush every 12

34、 hours over a 36-hour period. They found that as a response to the touch, the mitochondria (線粒體) in the plants had been partly destroyed. The mitochondria, as Science Alert noted, are the “powerhouse of the cell (細(xì)胞)”. The mitochondria produce energy for the rest of the cell in both animals and plan

35、ts.If this “powerhouse” is weakened, the plants will lose a large amount of energy that should have supported their growth. Whelan further explained to Science Daily, “If the touching is repeated, then plant growth is reduced by up to 30 percent.”Although the process does have a strong effect on pla

36、nts, usually the plants survive. Touching changes the plants, but its not necessarily a bad change.According to Science Alert, frequent touching or moving plants will make them grow shorter than other ones. The researchers believe this change, in some way, could be helpful. It may help plants fight

37、threats to their health such as insects and bad weather.The new research findings have led to a deeper understanding of the plants response to touching. And the research might “open up new ways to reduce sensitivity (敏感性) and improve growth in the future”, Science Alert reported.1Why did the scienti

38、sts do the experiment?ATo test if touching can change the genes of plants.BTo show that plants and animals genes are different.CTo tell when touching has effect on plants and animals.DTo find out why some plants grow more slowly than others.2What did the scientists find in their experiment?ARepeated

39、 touching shortened the plants life by four weeks.BTouching slowed down plant growth by reducing energy for growth.CRepeated touching made plants die sooner than they were expected to.DMitochondria in the plants couldnt produce energy because of touching.3What do the scientists think of the fact tha

40、t touch makes plants become shorter?AThe plants will be more likely to be attracted by insects.BThe plants will be more easily harmed by bad weather.CThe plants will be less sensitive to being touched.DThe plants will be better at fighting dangers.D16、There are many expressions that use vegetables a

41、nd fruits. For example, a cucumber is a long, green vegetable that people eat in salads. You might say a person is as cool as a cucumber if he never seems to worry about anything and stays calm in a stressful situation.If two people are very similar, you might say they are like two peas in a pod. Th

42、ere are several expressions about beans. If someone is very energetic, you might say she is full of beans. If you say something does not amount to a hill of beans, you mean it is of little importance. I might say you dont know beans about a subject if you do not know anything at all about it. But if

43、 you spill the beans, you tell something that was supposed to be a secret.Potatoes are a popular food in many areas. But something is considered small potatoes if it is not important. You probably would not want to hold a hot potato in your empty hands. This also means a problem or an issue that no

44、one wants to deal with. Someone might call you a couch potato if you sit and watch television all day and get little or no physical exercise.Finally, let us talk about lemons. Lemons have a sour taste if you eat them plain. But lemons make a nice drink when you mix their juice with sugar and water.

45、So here is an expression about lemons that we like: If life gives you lemons, make lemonade. This means you should always try to make the best of a bad situation.1Who are most probably described as two peas in a pod?ALovers. BPartners. CDeskmates. DTwins.2If one knows nothing about the project you a

51、ing. People do this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary(必要的) to do this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples. Whats the matter? I went to a party last night, so I. I feel so tired these days. I think youd better. Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the mostYou can see from the above three examples that the context(上下文) helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about. So guessing is very important in u
