trained with one of the citys very successful artists，Andrea del VerrocchioHe was a painter，sculptor and gold workerVerrocchio told his students that they needed to understand the bodys bones and muscles when drawing peopleLeonardo took the teachers advice very seriouslyHe spent several periods of his life studying the human body by taking apart and examining dead bodiesWhile training as an artist，Leonardo also learned about and improved on relatively new painting methods at the timeOne was the use of perspective （透视） to show depthA method calledsfumatohelped to create a cloudy effect to

bedandbreakfast guesthouse in rural Kempton，IllinoisThey often serve their guests produce fresh from the gardenThe Hoffmans have been growing food and flowers for twentyfive yearsFor almost ten of those years，MrHoffman has been experimenting and working with shade plantingsHe says visitors to his websitegreenhousebedcomoften ask how to plant in shade spacesHe said，The bottom line here is that most plants will produce more in full sunBut if you do not have full sun，there are other optionsFor example，he grows tomatoes near oak treesOak trees can produce a lot of shadeBut MrHoffman says his tomato plants grow as long as they get five hours a day of direct sunshine，especially morning sunNot only does this go against the traditional advice that tomatoes need six，eight，even twelve hours a day of full sun，it also shows how plants and trees roots can share nutrients and waterMrHoffman also planted asparagus（芦笋） around a tree at its drip line，the area below the outer limit of the branchesSo when it rains，all the rain drips down right on the asparagusThe Hoffmanswebsite includes a list of vegetables，flowers and herbs that have produced acceptably for them in partial shadeMrHoffman says plants with wider leaves seem to do better in shady environmentsHe also found that his potatoes did better in partial shade than in full sunMoving them out of the sun helped control an insect problem with leaf hoppersMrHoffman does not use pesticides （农药）Instead，he planted the potatoes at the drip line，especially on the east side of the treeThe potatoes get morning sun，but they are shaded during the hottest part of the dayLeaf hoppers dislike shade，and the hottest part of the day is when they do the worst of their damageTime of day，brightness of the sun，shadows from trees，walls and buildings，these all influence how much sunlight falls or does not fall on plantsAnd extension agent Curtis Swift at Colorado State University says people interested in shade planting should also remember something elseThe termshadecan describe different amounts of darknessHe says it can even mean different things in different parts of the world46Whats the authors purpose of writing the passage？ATo present a kind of ecofriendly lifestyleBTo recommend an approach to managing a websiteCTo show vegetables can be planted in the shadeDTo introduce Mark Hoffman and his family47What can we infer from the second paragraph？AFood and flowers produce more in the shadeBFood growing in the shade contains more nutrientsCSun can affect the production of some plantsDFood growing in the shade is the best choice for most plants48By using asparagus as an example，the author wants to explain thatAasparagus prefers to grow in the shadeBhow plants and tree roots share waterCvegetables grow better in partial shadeDhow leaves gain sunshine under the tree49The underlined wordsleaf hoppersin Para.5may be a kind ofAplants Bpesticides Cinsects Dpotatoes50According to the passage，Curtis Swift may think thatApeople should consider specific situation while planting vegetables in shadeBsome special rules related to shade plantings should be rememberedCdifferent parts of

and communicationThey often behave in limited and repeated ways and have what seem like unusual strong interestsAutism is more common in boys than girlsWhat causes it is not clearScientists are studying genes and possible environmental influencesDoctors usually cannot confirm a diagnosis of autism until a child is about three years oldRebecca Landa is a researcher at the Kennedy Krieger Institute and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in MarylandProfessor Landa wanted to find out what differences in development might be seen earlierShe led a new study that observed 235babies between six and 36months of ageAt six months of age，the signs of some risk for developing communication and social delays，including autism，include motor delays，like when you lay your baby on their back and you pull them by the arms gently into a seated position，the babys head may nod back behind the shoulders，like poor head controlSo that does not mean that the baby is going to have autism，but it does mean the baby needs to have some exercises to strengthen their bodyAnd when they strengthen their body，they are better able to play with toys and engage with people，which then goes on to help them have better outcomesBy the time a baby is one year old，signs of possible autism include difficulty in using words and not looking eyetoeye or reaching out to other peopleBy 14months，the baby might smile less and use language lessHowever，Professor Landa says these signs can be so small that they might be missed during a short health examIts important for parents to stay tuned in to their childrens development，and if a parent is concerned about a childs development，for professionals to listen to themThe earlier parents notice delays，she says，the sooner they can begin doing simple things that may help improve their childs development，such as talking to the child about what they are doing，commenting when the child shows them something，and playing simple games that keep the childs attention51Whats the best title of the passage？AWatching for Early Signs of Autism in BabiesBHow to Confirm a Diagnosis of AutismCChildren with Autism Have Difficulty in CommunicationDWays to Help Children with Autism to Recover52What can we learn from the third paragraph？ALanda has found ways to confirm a diagnosis of autism when a baby is about sixmonthsBLanda tried to find out autism earlier by comparing the differences as the baby grows upCNow doctors can confirm diagnosis of autism before a child is about three years oldDDoctors observed 235babies between six and 36months of age under the guide of Landa53When a baby with signs of possible autism is a year and two months，he or she mayAshow great interest in
