unit 4 global warming .阅读理解would it surprise you to learn that,like animals,trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?ubc professor simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined.although charles darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest,simard shows just how wrong he was.in fact,the opposite is true:trees survive through their co-operation and support,passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it”.nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi(真菌) networks,making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy.this hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains,and when one tree is destroyed,it affects all.simard talks about “mother trees”,usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend.she explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation,transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow.when humans cut down “mother trees” with no awareness of these highly complex “tree societies” or the networks on which they feed,we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.“we didnt take any notice of it,” simard says sadly.“dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying,but we never give them a chance.” if we could put across the message to the forestry industry,we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了树和树之间不是你死我活的竞争关系,而是相互依赖的互助关系。快要死的树会将自己的营养传给小树让它们更好地成长。如果人们知道这些现象,就可以更好地保护这些树。1.what would be the best title for the passage? a.old trees communicate like humansb.young trees are in need of protectionc.trees are more complex than you thinkd.trees contribute to our society答案c解析标题概括题。结合全文内容可知,文章介绍了树和树之间不是你死我活的竞争关系,而是相互依赖的互助关系。快要死的树会将自己的营养传给小树让它们更好地成长,所以树木比我们想象的更复杂。c项适合做标题。故选c项。2.in simards opinion,trees .a.depend on each otherb.protect their own wealthc.compete for survivald.provide support for dying trees答案a解析细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知,树与树之间的关系是互相依赖的。故选a项。3.we can learn from the passage that .a.“mother trees” are usually of no use to other trees.b.charles darwin had the same thought as simardc.people know much about the complex “tree societies”d.if “mother trees” are cut down,the survival for the entire forest will be affected答案d解析推理判断题。根据第四段第三句可推断出,砍掉“母亲树”会影响整片森林的生存状况。故选d项。4.the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to .a.how trees grow oldb.how “tree societies” workc.how forestry industry developsd.how young trees survive答案b解析代词指代题。画线词出现在第五段段首,所以应该到上一段段末寻找it所指代的内容。上段最后一句指出,砍掉“母亲树”会影响整片森林的生存状况,可推断出,it指的是“树的社会”是如何运转的。故选b项。导学号29402131.七选五feeling both positive and negative emotions is a natural part of being human.we might use the word “negative” to describe difficult emotions,but it doesnt mean those emotions are bad or we shouldnt have them.still,most people would probably rather feel a positive emotion than a negative one.1.what matters is how our emotions are balancedhow much of each type of emotion,positive or negative,we experience.negative emotions warn us of threats or challenges that we may need to deal with.for example,fear can make us aware of possible danger.2. angry feelings warn us that someone is stepping on our toes,crossing a boundary,or losing our trust.anger can be a signal that we might need to act on our own behalf.negative emotions focus our awareness.3. but too many negative emotions can make us feel anxious,exhausted,or stressed out.when negative emotions are out of balance,problems might seem too big to handle.positive emotions balance out negative ones,and they have other powerful benefits,too.instead of narrowing our focus like negative emotions do,positive emotions affect our brains in ways that increase our awareness,attention,and memory.they help us take in more information and hold several ideas in mind at once.4.when positive emotions open us up to new possibilities,we are more able to learn and build on our skills.5.a.what helps you feel confident?b.that leads to doing better on tasks and tests.c.its a signal that we might need to protect ourselves.d.they help us focus on a problem so we can deal with it.e.for example,its likely that youd prefer to feel happy instead of sad.f.and they then make us understand how different ideas relate to each other.g.pay attention to these powerful tools and find ways to make time for them.答案与解析【语篇导读】本文是议论文。文章论述了消极情绪和积极情绪的作用。1.ee项是对上文“still,most people would probably rather feel a positive emotion than a negative one.”的举例说明。2.c根据上文的“.fear can make us aware of possible danger.”可判断,c项内容与之相呼应。3.d结合上下文可知,d项是对上文“negative emotions focus our awareness.”的进一步说明。4.ff项与上文的“.hold several ideas in mind at once.”相呼应。5.bb项中的that指代上文的“.learn and build on our skills.”,说明积极情绪的好处。导学号29402132.完形填空(2017吉林长春一模)when i was just out of college,i managed to
