Her family was poor and noodles were often their only food. Her parents couldnt afford to pay the electricity bill (电费), so she had to study by candle light. What was worse, to live on, her parents moved to a faraway village with the other four children. As for Jane, she didnt want to give up learning and she dreamed to enter a famous university. She stuck to living alone in her village. After Janes parents left, she lived a really difficult life. Having no place to live in, the homeless girl had to sleep on the back seat of the school bus. Luckily, Mrs. Brown, the caring school bus driver, learned about Janes situation and invited her to live with her family. Soon, Jane found a job in her school.

Grass doesnt cry when you cut it; flowers dont shout when theyre picked. But this view of the world couldnt be more wrong. Plants talk to each other all the time. Their language is one of chemicals. Over the years, scientists have found that different types of plants, from trees to tomatoes, send compounds(复合物)into the air to help neighboring plants. But exactly how plants receive and act on many of these signals is still a mystery. Scientists from Kyoto University in Japan looked at tomato plants that had been bitten by insects. To start out, they grew plants in two plastic bags connected by a tube(管子). One plant had been bitten by insects. The other was not bitten. They found that when insects bite plant leaves, the plants dont sit quietly. They send a chemical called hexvic into the air. Humans cant notice it, but these chemicals carry a smell that neighboring plants can notice. This way, neighboring plants realize the danger and begin to give off more hexvic to protect themselves. The same scientists continued their research by placing insects on the plants that had not been bitten. The plants were able to kill nearly 50 percent of the invaders, much more than their neighbor. It was surprising that the plants that had not been bitten didnt send the chemical until the received a warning message from their infested(受侵的)neighbor, the scientists said. These findings could be used to help farmers with the control of the insects which do harm to their plants. （1）When bitten by insects, the tomato plant _ . A . stayed quiet without doing anythingB . died immediately after thatC . sent out a chemical to warn othersD . wouldnt be hurt again by the same insects（2）What does the underlined word invaders in Paragraph 5 refer to? A . ScientistsB . Insects.C . Compounds.D . Farmers.（3）What can we learn from the research? A . Tomato plants are easily bitten by insects.B . The smell of hexvic is a kind of warning message.C . Hexvic can help plants kill all the insects near them.D . Plants wont give off chemicals until they are hurt.（4）Which of the following is True according to the passage? A . Plants dont communicate with each other.B . Scientists did the research with two plants bitten by insects.C . The findings of the research help farmers to protect their plants.D . Communication among plants is no longer a mystery.（5）Whats the best title of the passage? A . Growing TomatoesB . Talking PlantsC . Harmful ChemicalsD . Scientific Researches四、 补全对话 (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）补全对话。A: Hi, Linda, _B: Hi, Mary! Happy birthday!
