　　.阅读理解

　　A

　　Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there's no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children's curiosity (好奇). Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary (薪水) and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. Finally I said, “Now that we're finished with your lists,_do you have questions of your own about science？”

　　After a long pause, a boy raised his hand，“Have you ever seen a grasshopper (蚱蜢)eat? When I try eating leaves like that，I get a stomachache. Why？”

　　This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.

　　Secondly，give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that，after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical (符合逻辑的), complete and creative answers.

　　Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion，don't jump in with “That's right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behaviour (行为). But in talking about science，quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying “That's interesting” or “I'd never thought of it that way before”，or coming up with more questions or ideas.

　　Never push a child to “think”. It doesn't make sense. Children are always thinking, without your telling them to. What's more，this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want，in as few words as possible，so that he will be a smaller target(目标)for your disagreement.

　　Lastly, show, don't tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜), and they'll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.

　　1．According to the passage, children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to do is ________.

　　A．to let them see the world around

　　B．to share the children's curiosity

　　C．to explain difficult phrases about science

　　D．to supply the children with lab equipment

　　答案：B　根据文章第一段第三句中的“share your children's curiosity”可推知答案为B项。

　　2．In the last sentence of the first paragraph, the word “lists” could best be replaced by ________.

　　A．any questions

　　B．any problems

　　C．questions from textbooks

　　D．any number of questions

　　答案：C　根据文章第一段第六句“The children asked me ‘textbook question’．..”可推知答案为C项。

　　3．According to the passage, children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way if adults ________.

　　A．ask them to answer quickly

　　B．wait for one or two seconds after a question

　　C．tell them to answer the next day

　　D．wait at least for three seconds after a question

　　答案：D　根据文章第四段最后一句“When adults increase their ‘wait time’ to three seconds or more, children give more logical (符合逻辑的), complete and creative answers.”可推知答案为D项。

　　4．In which of the following paragraph (s)does the author tell us what to say to encourage children in a science discussion?

　　A．The second and third.

　　B．The fourth and fifth.

　　C．The fifth and sixth.

　　D．The seventh.

　　答案：C　根据问题的内容可在文章的第五、六段找到答案。

　　B

　　(2024·湖北重点中学联考)

　　400-year-old plants from the Little Ice Age were brought back to life, which could help us understand how the Earth will deal with climate change.

　　Moss (藓类植物) found buried beneath the Teardrop Glacier (冰川) on Ellesmere Island in Canada has been brought back to life. Findings suggest that these plants could help repopulate regions exposed by melting ice caps. Plants that were buried beneath thick ice in Canada more than 400 years ago and were thought to have frozen to death have been brought back to life by Canadian scientists.

　　Samples of the moss plant, covered by the glacier during the Little Ice Age of 1550 to 1850, were replanted in a lab at the University of Alberta and grew new stems (茎). Researchers now think these findings can give indication as to how regions can recover as the ice covering them melts.

　　Biologist Dr. Catherine La Farge and her team at the University of Alberta were exploring the region around the Teardrop Glacier on Ellesmere Island. Ice on Ellesmere Island region has been melting at around four meters each year for the past nine years. This means that many areas of land that were previously covered by ice have since been exposed. Many ecosystems that were thought to have been destroyed during the Little Ice Age between 1550 and 1850 can now be studied, including many species that have never been studied before.

　　While examining an exposed area of land, La Farge and her team discovered a small area of moss called Aulacomnium turgidum. It is a type of bryophyte (苔藓类植物) plant that mainly grows across Canada, the U．S. and the highlands of the U．K.

　　Dr. La Farge noticed that the moss had small patches of green stems, suggesting it is either growing again or can be encouraged to repopulate. Dr. La Farge told the BBC, “When we looked at the samples in detail and brought them to the lab, I could see some of the stems actually had new growth of green branches, suggesting that these plants were growing again, and that blew_my_mind. When we think of thick areas of ice covering the landscape, we've always thought that plants have to come from refugia (濒绝生物保护区), never considering that land plants come from underneath a glacier. It's a whole world of what's coming out from underneath the glacier that really needs to be studied. The ice is disappearing pretty fast. We really have not examined all the biological systems that exist in the world; we don't know it all.”

　　Dr. La Farge took samples of the moss and, using carbon-dating techniques, discovered that the plants date back to the Little Ice Age. Dr. La Farge's team took the samples, planted them in dishes full of nutrient-rich potting soil and fed them with water.

　　The samples were from four separate species including Aulacomnium turgidum, Distichium capillaceum, Encalypta procera and Syntrichia ruralis. The moss plants found by Dr. La Farge are types of bryophytes. Bryophytes can survive long winters and regrow when the weather gets warmer.

　　However, Dr. La Farge was surprised that the plants buried under ice have survived into the 21st century. Her findings appear in Proceedings (论文集) of the National Academy of Sciences.

　　语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了生物学家凯瑟琳·拉·法奇博士和她的团队发现400年前冰封在冰川里的苔藓类植物，带回实验室后放置在营养丰富的土壤中，浇水之后这些植物又再次生长。

　　5．Dr. La Farge's research is of great importance to ________.

　　A．knowing what the plants during the Little Ice Age were like

　　B．understanding how ecosystems recover from glaciers

　　C．regrowing many species that have been destroyed before

　　D．figuring out the effects of melting ice caps on moss

　　答案：B　推理判断题。根据第二段第二句“Findings suggest that these plants could help repopulate regions exposed by melting ice caps.”可知研究表明这些植物有望重新覆盖冰盖融化地区。由此推断该研究有利于当地的生态系统从冰川中恢复过来。故选B项。

　　6．The underlined part “blew my mind” in Paragraph 6 means ________．

　　A．surprised me

　　B．greatly frightened me

　　C．put my doubt out of my mind

　　D．was exactly what I had in my mind

　　答案：A　词义猜测题。画线短语所在的句子意为“……我可以看到一些茎上新长出了绿色的分支，这表明这些植物正在再次生长，这出乎我的意料。”因此画线部分意为“出乎意料”，只有A项符合。

　　7．According to the passage, Aulacomnium turgidum ________.

　　A．lives better in small groups

　　B．is very active in hot weather

　　C．is strong enough to survive coldness

　　D．is chosen from Canadian refugia

　　答案：C　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句中“Bryophytes can survive long winters and regrow when the weather gets warmer.”可知苔藓植物可以在漫长的冬季存活并在天气变暖时再生。因为Aulacomnium turgidum是苔藓类植物中的一种，因此也可在严寒中存活。故选C项。

　　8．Which of the following would best summarize the passage?

　　A．Bryophyte ecology is greatly affected by climate change.

　　B．400-year-old moss's survival is a mystery to solve.

　　C．Moss in ancient times was discovered in Canada.

　　D．400-year-old plants were brought back to life.

　　答案：D　主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知冰封400年的植物也可以在合适的温度中再次复活。故选D项。

　　Ⅳ.七选五

　　根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两处为多余选项。

　　Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations.They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.1.________

　　The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly.Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses.2.________ So they are called “diseases of civilization”．Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.

　　Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none.3.________ However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.

　　Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones.They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits.They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. 4.________ We eat six times more salt than our ancestors.We eat more sugar.We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.

　　5．________ But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.
