　　阅读理解【1】

　　阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

　　Plants can’t communicate by moving or making sounds, as most animals do. Instead, plants produce volatile compounds, chemicals that easily change from a liquid to a gas. A flower’s sweet smell, for example, comes from volatile compounds that the plant produces to attract insects such as bugs and bees.

　　Plants can also detect volatile compounds produced by other plants. A tree under attack by hungry insects, for instance, may give off volatile compounds that let other trees know about the attack. In response, the other trees may send off chemicals to keep the bugs away—or even chemicals that attract the bugs’ natural enemies.

　　Now scientists have created a quick way to understand what plants are saying:　a chemical sensor(传感器) called an electronic nose. The“e-nose” can tell compounds that crop plants make when they’re attacked. Scientists say the e-nose could help quickly detect whether plants are being eaten by insects. But today the only way to detect such insects is to visually inspect individual plants. This is a challenging task for managers of greenhouses, enclosed gardens that can house thousands of plants.

　　The research team worked with an e-nose that recognizes volatile compounds. Inside the device, 13 sensors chemically react with volatile compounds. Based on these interactions, the e-nose gives off electronic signals that the scientists analyze using computer software.

　　To test the nose, the team presented it with healthy leaves from cucumber, pepper and tomato plants, all common greenhouse crops. Then the scientists collected samples of air around damaged leaves from each type of crop. These plants had been damaged by insects, or by scientists who made holes in the leaves with a hole punch(打孔器).

　　The e-nose, it turns out, could identify healthy cucumber, peper and tomato plants based on the volatile compounds they produce. It could also identify tomato leaves that had been damaged. But even more impressive, the device could tell which type of damage—by insects or with a hole punch—had been done to the tomato leaves.

　　With some fine-tuning, a device like the e-nose could one day be used in greenhouses to quickly spot harmful bugs, the researchers say. A device like this could also be used to identify fruits that are perfectly ripe and ready to pick and eat, says Natalia Dudareva, a biochemist at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind. who studies smells of flowers and plants. Hopefully, scientists believe, the device could bring large benefits to greenhouse managers in the near future.

　　1. We learn from the text that plants communicate with each other by　.　

　　A. making some soundsB. waving their leaves

　　C. producing some chemicals　 D. sending out electronic signals

　　2. What did the scientists do to find out if the e-nose worked?

　　A. They presented it with all common crops.

　　B. They fixed 13 sensors inside the device.

　　C. They collected different damaged leaves.

　　D. They made tests on damaged and healthy leaves.

　　3. According to the writer, the most amazing thing about the e-nose is that it can　.　

　　A. pick out ripe fruits

　　B. spot the insects quickly

　　C. distinguish different damages to the leaves

　　D. recognize unhealthy tomato leaves

　　4. We can infer from the last paragraph that the e-nose　.　

　　A. is unable to tell the smell of flowers

　　B. is not yet used in greenhouses

　　C. is designed by scientists at Purdue

　　D. is helpful in killing harmful insects

　　短文改错

　　Usually most divers don’t go very deep. Mainly they dive to 1．

　　a depth of about 20 meter. Then they swam around as they slowly ．

　　return to the surface. Everyone wants to dive must first have diving

　　．

　　lessons. There are few dangers that you have to learn about. For one ．

　　thing, you might have problems with its air bottle. A diver must ．

　　know how the equipment works and is able to recognize possible ．

　　problem. There are also dangerous types of fish that you must look 7．

　　out for. You must be familiar to the environment you’ll be diving ．

　　in. Before you go on a dive, make sure you know that what you are

　　．

　　getting into. Diving may look easily, but if you don’t have the．

　　necessary training, it can be both difficult and dangerous.

　　. 正确

　　经分析本句正确。

　　. swam – swim 考查动词时态。文章讲述的是通常的惯例，故用一般现在时。

　　. wants前加who / that, 或Everyone – Whoever考查句子结构分析。此处must have是谓语动词，wants前加who/that构成定语从句，把Everyone – Whoever构成主语从句。

　　. few前加a, 或few – some 考查句意理解。此处意为：你必须知道有一些危险。故用a few或some。

　　. its – your 考查代词指代一致。此处your应与有保持一致。

　　. is – be 考查句意理解及并列关系。此处be与know并列。

　　7. problem – problems

　　考查名词的单复数。根据句意可知可能的问题不止一个。

　　. to – with 考查介词的用法。解题关键：掌握短语“主语（人）be familiar with ”。

　　. 去掉that 考查名词性从句的连接词。此处what是宾语从句的连接词，故去掉that。

　　. easily – easy考查形容词的用法。此处look相当于系动词，故用形容词。
