And not all carrots are orange.For example,Paris Market carrots are about five centimeters around.Rome carrots are thin and about twenty-five centimeters long.And Belgian carrots are,as their name suggests,white.For the best results,carrots should be grown in sandy soil that does not hold water for a long time.The soil also should have no rocks.To prepare your garden for carrots,dig up the soil,loosen it and turn it over.Then,mix in some plant material or animal fertilizer(肥料).3. Experts say warm days,cool nights and a medium soil temperature are the best conditions for growing carrots that taste great.Carrots need time to develop their full sugar content.This gives them their taste.If they are harvested too early,they will not have enough sugar.But carrots lose sweetness if you wait too long to pull them from the ground.4. Usually,the brighter the color,the better the taste.5. If the winter is not cold enough to freeze the ground,you can grow and harvest carrots the same way as during the summer months.If the ground does freeze,simply cover your carrot garden with a thick layer of leaves or straw.This will prevent the ground from freezing.A.They are economic crops.B.But carrots come in many different sizes and shapes.C.The best time for planting carrots is during the winter months.D.Weather,soil conditions and age will affect the carrots taste.E.The best way to judge if a carrot is ready to be harvested is by its color.F.And they contain a lot of carotene(胡萝卜素),which the body makes into vitamin A.G.Many people do not know that carrots can be grown during the winter months.答案:1.F2.B3.D4.E5.G七、完形填空When I was growing up,I had an old neighbour Dr.Gibbs,a good doctor.When Dr.Gibbs wasnt 1 lives,he was planting trees.His house covered an area of ten acres,and his 2 in life was to make it a forest.The good doctor had some interesting theories 3 plant care and growth.He never 4 his new trees,which went against traditional practices.Once I asked why,he said that watering plants did 5 to them so that their later generation would grow weaker and weaker.So you had to make things 6 for them and removed the 7 trees early on.He talked about how watering trees made for 8 roots,and how trees that werent watered had to grow deep roots in 9 of moisture(水分).He meant that deep roots had to be 10.For this reason,he 11 watered his trees.Dr.Gibbs 12 a couple of years after I left home.Every now and again,I walked by his house and looked at the 13 that he had planted when he was alive.Theyre extremely tall and big 14 they have deep roots now.However,the trees in my garden 15 in the cold wind although I had watered them for several years.It seems that suffering 16 these trees,while comfort and ease never can.I stood there deep in 17.Every night before I go to bed,I check on my two sons.Mostly I pray that their lives will be 18.But I think that its time to 19 my prayer because now I know my children are going to 20 hardship.1.A.savingB.makingC.earningD.losing解析:吉布斯医生不拯救人性命的时候就去种树。A项符合实际。答案:A2.A.actionB.wisdomC.styleD.goal解析:他的人生目标就是将它变成一片森林。goal“目标,努力的对象”。答案:D3.A.aboutB.withC.byD.under解析:这个好医生对于植物的护理和生长方面有一番有趣的理论。about“关于,对于”。答案:A4.A.plantedB.wateredC.cutD.harvested解析:由下文“hesaidthatwateringplants.”可知,此处指“浇水”。句意:他从不浇灌他新种的树,这与传统的做法是相悖的。答案:B5.A.benefitB.goodC.harmD.favour解析:由后文“.theirlatergenerationwouldgrowweakerandweaker.”可知,浇水对树是“有害”的。doharmto“对有害”。答案:C6.A.harmfulB.hardC.interestingD.comfortable解析:你得把它们的生长环境变得艰苦些,尽早淘汰那些弱不禁风的树。hard“困苦的,艰苦的,艰难的”。答案:B7.A.strongerB.tallerC.youngerD.weaker解析:由前文“.sothattheirlatergenerationwouldgrowweakerandweaker.”可知D项正确。答案:D8.A.deepB.shallowC.highD.low解析:由下文“.howtreesthatwerentwateredhadtogrowdeeproots.”推知,未浇水的树根系分布浅,故选B项。shallow“浅的,肤浅的”。答案:B9.A.searchB.faceC.favourD.charge解析:A项文意通顺。insearchof“寻找,寻求”。答案:A10.A.cutB.grownC.treasuredD.removed解析:他的意思是根系分布深是必须要重视的。treasure“珍视,重视”。答案:C11.A.alwaysB.oftenC.sometimesD.never解析:根据前文所述应选D项。句意:所以他从不给他的树浇水。答案:D12.A.ran outB.fell behindC.turned upD.passed away解析:由下句“.whenhewasalive.”可知D项正确。runout“用完,耗尽”;fallbehind“落后”;turnup“出现,来到”;passaway“去世”。答案:D13.A.t
