Q: China is such a big country. Are the north and south very different Fiona, 12, US
A: I think the language is really different. Each place in China has its own local language. But visitors from the north can hardly understand it! Luckily, China has done a good job in teaching people Mandarin (普通话), especially older people. My grandma didn’t speak Mandarin before, but she started to learn later. Now she is 64 and can speak Mandarin well! It’s amazing that 1.4 billion people can speak one language! Wu Yu, 13, Fujian
I think the food is quite different. I grew up in Tianjin, a northern city. In 2012, I traveled to Hunan. The rice was not as sweet and delicious as in the north. Last year. I visited Hunan again. The rice was no different from that in my hometown, because people in Human can buy rice from the northeast on the Internet. I’ve experienced this, too! In Tianjin, we can easily buy fresh fruits from Hainan for a good price! Li Tao, 13, Tianjin
Sights in north and south is different. I live in Hangzhou, a warm and wet southern city. It has beautiful lake sights. But in north, the weather is usually drier. In Hangzhou, I often see young people wearing hanfu while walking along the West Lake. But when I traveled to Xi’an, I saw people wearing herself, too! It seems that people from both the north and south love this clothing! Zhou Nan, 14, Zhejiang

When we see babies or pets, we can’t help gently touching them to show our love. And they give us happy feelings back. But a recent study shows that it’s different for plants.
In fact, ▲ . That’s because touching changes their genes 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, or even plants touching each other in the wind, leads to a huge gene change in the plant.”
In order to test the idea, 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 hours over a 36-hour period. They found that as a result, the mitochondria (线粒体) in the plants had been partly hurt. The mitochondria are the “powerhouse of the cell”. The mitochondria produce energy for the rest of the cell in both animals and plants. If this “powerhouse” is weakened, the plants will lose a large amount of energy that should have supported their growth. Whelan further explained, “If the touching is repeated, then plant growth is reduced by up to 30 percent.” According to Science Alert, repeated touching or moving plants will make them grow shorter than others.
Although the touching does have a strong effect on plants, it’s not always bad. The researches believe, in some ways, it could be helpful. It may help plants fight against insects and bad weather. The new research findings have led to a deeper understanding of the plants’ reply to touching. And the research might also “open up new ways to optimize (优化) growth in the future.” Science Alert reported.
54. Which of the following is the best for “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 2
A. people like touching plants B. plants don’t “like” to be touched
C. plants won’t grow if they are touched D. people should touch plants as much as possible
55. How many times did people touch the plants during the experiment
A. 1. B. 3. C. 6. D. 12.
56. According to the passage, scientists found that repeated touching could ________.
A. shorten the life of plants B. help plants produce more energy
C. make plants grow more slowly D. cause the death of plants
57. The main purpose of the passage is to tell us ________.
A. to touch plants often to show our love
B. some ways of helping plants grow better
C. advantages and disadvantages of touching plants
D. the differences of touching the plants and the animals
【答案】54. B 55. B 56. C 57. C
【导语】本文主要介绍了外界的触摸对植物而言，给其带来的坏处和好处。

About fifteen years ago, Andrew McLindon, a successful businessman as well as a cyclist, was riding his bike as usual in Austin, Texas, when he thought about a friend’s 12-year-old son. The boy had never known the joy of biking because he suffered from a serious disease in the brain, which often causes balance (平衡) problems.
When he got home, McLindon went online and found a three-wheel shaped bike with a seat belt, perfect for a child with balance problems.
Soon the boy was riding around the street with his friends, having fun and getting exercise at the same time. But there was more, as McLindon read from his friend’s expression. “To see his son communicating with other kids,” McLindon says. “I’ll never forget the smile on his face.”
That smile lit the McLindon Family Foundation (基金会) called the Bike Project. With great efforts, the foundation works with some local hospitals to search for children who can get help from owning such a bike, which can meet the special needs of the child. The bike includes a part of seat that supports a person’s head, a seat belt and a braking (刹车) part in the back. The bike is expensive—$3,000 to $4,000, and that’s a present with the foundation’s huge support. It’s enough lucky for kids to get one.
“We worked with a 14-year-old girl who has spina (脊柱) disease,” says McLindon. “She spent most days on the couch watching TV. Soon after she got her bike, she was training for special-needs sports. In a magazine interview, she said, ‘I always knew there was a player in me.’ ”
So far, the foundation has given away 450 bikes, and that’s just a start. “I do a lot of things. I run a lot of companies,” McLindon says. “But getting these kids their bikes is the most important thing that I do.”
58. McLindon started the McLindon Family Foundation because ________.
A. he wanted kids to fall in love with riding
B. he was satisfied with his friend’s experience
C. the foundation could offer the local kids better life
D. the joys of the boy woke him to care about more kids
59. From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5, we can infer ________.
A. she got used to the life sitting on the couch
B. the Bike Project is a life changer to a kid like her
C. she always knew it was not easy to live with dreams
D. the Bike Project has raised money to help treat her disease
60. Which of the following can best describe McLindon
A. Warm-hearted. B. Wide-minded. C. Strong-willed. D. Well-educated.
61. What is the best title for this passage
A. A Beautiful Smile of a Father B. A Terrible Disease in Brain
C. The Success of a Businessman D. The Special Bike to the Kids
【答案】58. D 59. B 60. A 61. D

Jason and his father were going to the grocery store by car to pick up some apples. It had been an unusual day. The sky was dark but there were few clouds. As they drove up the street, there started to be a rumbling(隆隆的) sound heard across the ground.
Jason’s father immediately realized that a tornado(龙卷风) was coming. He stopped the car and told Jason to get out immediately. Jason and his father got out of the car and made their way to the closest building. By this time the wind was blowing harder, and it was hard to see or hear. Debris was falling all over the place. Jason couldn’t see his dad any more. He also realized that he wasn’t getting to the building fast enough. He was afraid he would be picked up by the wind and thrown into the air.
As he made his way towards the building, he noticed a field to his right. He could see an irrigation ditch(灌溉渠). In a panic, he scrambled(爬) to the ditch and lay flat on the ground. More debris and objects flew overhead. His heart was beating hard, and he was nervous. He had never been in a tornado before.
After a while, the winds died down and the loud roaring sound was gone. Jason slowly lifted his head and nervously looked around. What he saw was a great mess. Jason could hardly recognize the buildings in front of him because of all the damage.
He stood up and with shaky legs walked to the building. Once there, he pushed the door open and went inside. It was a public building owned by the city. It was empty, but Jason could hear noises further inside. He walked into the large room and saw his dad. He ran across the room and gave him a big hug.
“Jason! How are you I’ve been worried sick about you!” said his father. “I couldn’t find you anywhere!”
Jason breathed a sigh of a relief and sat down. He did have a story to tell!
