26、 New Area had not only the sounds of leaves, birds and waves, but also the chatter and laughter of children exploring and learning in nature. To celebrate Childrens Day, Baguang Nature School invited Dr. Liu Yi, a Whitley Awards winner, to give children a special tour, passing on knowledge about the
27、 plants and animals they found while walking along a route that led to the sea. The tour started with an ice-breaker game. Then Dr. Liu introduced the children to different kinds of plants and creatures along the coastline. The tour ended with a mini workshop. Children actively talked about what the
28、y learned through drawings and the workshop. Lin Haiting, the mother of a 10-year-old boy, asked her son to take part in the tour. “I grew up in Dapeng so I think I was lucky to be able to enjoy the fun and beauty of nature throughout my childhood. I want the same for my son,” she said, Her son Zhou
29、 Yuanzhang said that he was happy to celebrate Childrens Day in nature because he had so much fun learning about animals and plants. Dr Liu thinks its meaningful for children to get an education on nature. “Humans are born to admire and be curious about nature. However the busy and crowded lives in
30、the city have more or less made us lose such curiosity. In this case nature education plays an important role in reopening the door to nature and raising peoples awareness about respecting and protecting nature.” he said. Chen Shengcheng is the father of a 9-year-old girl. He believes the tour helps
31、 children take a break from schoolwork and have a full heart. He often brings his daughter to nature and lets her know about living creatures.

32、nly tell us? A. Why the tour was made. B. Why children liked the tour. C. Who was responsible for the tour. D. How many children took part in the tour. 40.

34、sity about nature. B. It can make children have a happy childhood. C. It can make children respect life and protect nature. D. It can make children take a break from schoolwork. (C) It is not easy to break a world record. However, the Chinese scientist Yuan Longping has led his team to set many new
35、records of hybrid rice (杂交水稻) production. Yuan came up with an idea for hybridizing rice in the 1960s when hunger which was caused by natural disasters caused the deaths of millions of Chinese people. He met many difficulties at first; however, with a lot of hard work, his team finally successfully
36、developed a hybrid rice species which had great advantages over ordinarily grown rice in 1974. Hybrid rice has been grown in some countries in Africa, America, and Asia. For his contributions, Yuan is always called the “Father of Hybrid Rice”. He has kept working on his project for many years. Xiang
37、 Liangyou 900, a new kind of hybrid nice created by Yuan in 2017, has shown high yields (产量). On average, 17.2 tons of rice produced per hectare (每公顷). It was 7.2 more than the average in the world. “This is the highest yield in the world,” Yuan said. It must be planted in a certain way. The space b
38、etween two rows of rice is wider than that of the ordinary rice. It allows every plant to get enough sunshine. Yuans team used creative ways to study different kinds of high yield rice. For example, they used seawater to water the rice. This seems like a bad idea as the salt could make the rice lose
39、 too much water. But in fact, the seawater provides more minerals for the rice. The important part is to mix seawater with freshwater together. Rice that is grown using this water is healthy, with a salt content of 0.6 percent. Yuan once dreamed of a kind of “super rice” whose grain would be as big
40、as a peanut. Now with different kinds of hybrid rice, Yuans dream may come true someday. 43. What CANNOT we learn from the second paragraph? A. Where hybrid rice has been grown. B. How Yuan solved the problems he met. C. Why Yuan started to develop hybrid rice. D. When Yuan started to develop hybrid
41、 rice. 44. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Ordinary rice. B. The rice watered by freshwater. C. Xiang Liangyou 900. D. The rice developed in the 1970s. 45. What are the fourth paragraph and the fifth paragraph mainly about? A. Peoples different ideas on Yuans hybrid ri
42、ce. B. Some other kinds of hybrid rice created by Yuans team. C. Yuans teams creative ways to study different kinds of high-yield rice. D. Some problems Yuans team met during the development of high-yield rice. 46. In which part of a newspaper can we read the passage most probably? A. Sports. B. Pop
43、ulation. C. Travel. D. People. (D) Peter Wohlleben, who was born in 1964, is German forester and writer who writes on ecological themes in popular langue. In his 2015 book The Hidden Life of Trees: What they Feel, How they Communicate - Discoveries from a Secret World, he holds some opinions which a
44、re different from the ideas that many people hold about trees. The book could give us some different ideas about trees and our lives. In forestry school, Wohlleben learned that young trees have more energy and grow more quickly than the old ones. However, a group of researchers didnt agree with that
45、 idea. They made a study on many different kinds of trees and found something different. From the study, they learned that old trees were healthier and grew faster than the young ones. Maybe we should also look at our old age just like what researchers found in old trees. When Wohlleben realized par
46、ent trees would force the seedlings (树苗) to grow more slowly, he was surprised. A two-hundred-year-old tree, for example, creates a covering overhead that allows very little light lo penetrate (穿透) and as a result the speed of the growth of the seedlings is slowed. In fact, scientists have learned t
47、hat as they grow more slowly, they could stand up more steadily (稳定地) when there come storms. If we humans grow too fast, especially as life expectancy increases, we will need a better way to slow down to make ourselves stronger for the long run. Most of the trees grow better when they grow closer t
48、ogether, which is not like what we thought before. Rather than removing trees, the better way to make the trees grow better is to let them live together. More interestingly, one study found that a group of trees allow themselves to share nutrition (养分), so that not only the strong trees can do well
49、but also the weak trees could stay strong as well. Trees communicate with and care for each other, provide habitat (栖息地) for insects and animals, and give humans oxygen to make them healthier. These ideas about trees may give us ideas about our own lives and the reasons why we should care for each o
50、ther, share resources and live in peaceful communities. 47. Which of the following is NOT true about Peter Wohlleben? A. He was born in the 1960s. B. He is from a European country. C. He wrote a book about animals. D. He is a forester as well as a writer. 48. Which of the following can help trees gr
