And they give us happy feelings back. But a recent study shows that its

41、different for plants. A study, published in The Plant Journal, shows that plants dont “like” to be touched. Thats because touching changes their genes (基因) and, even worse, can slow their growth.Professor Jim Whelan of the La Trobe Institute in Australia gave an explanation. “The lightest touch from

42、 a human, animal, insect, or even plants touching each other in the wind, leads to a huge gene change in the plant,” Science Daily reported.In order to test the theory, the scientists did an experiment on plants. They grew a number of plants to the age of four weeks. Then they touched them with a pa

43、intbrush every 12 hours over a 36-hour period. They found that as a response to the touch, the mitochondria (线粒体) in the plants had been partly destroyed. The mitochondria, as Science Alert noted, are the “powerhouse of the cell (细胞)”. The mitochondria produce energy for the rest of the cell in both

44、 animals and plants.If this “powerhouse” is weakened, the plants will lose a large amount of energy that should have supported their growth. Whelan further explained to Science Daily, “If the touching is repeated, then plant growth is reduced by up to 30 percent.”Although the process does have a str

45、ong effect on plants, usually the plants survive. Touching changes the plants, but its not necessarily a bad change.According to Science Alert, frequent touching or moving plants will make them grow shorter than other ones. The researchers believe this change, in some way, could be helpful. It may h

46、elp plants fight threats to their health such as insects and bad weather.The new research findings have led to a deeper understanding of the plants response to touching. And the research might “open up new ways to reduce sensitivity (敏感性) and improve growth in the future”, Science Alert reported.1Wh

47、y did the scientists do the experiment?ATo test if touching can change the genes of plants.BTo show that plants and animals genes are different.CTo tell when touching has effect on plants and animals.DTo find out why some plants grow more slowly than others.2What did the scientists find in their exp

48、eriment?ARepeated touching shortened the plants life by four weeks.BTouching slowed down plant growth by reducing energy for growth.CRepeated touching made plants die sooner than they were expected to.DMitochondria in the plants couldnt produce energy because of touching.3What do the scientists thin

49、k of the fact that touch makes plants become shorter?AThe plants will be more likely to be attracted by insects.BThe plants will be more easily harmed by bad weather.CThe plants will be less sensitive to being touched.DThe plants will be better at fighting dangers.F18、The H1Nl virus has been spreadi

50、ng world-wide，it is important for us to know how to control itPlease pay attention to the following points：1Dont touch your faceAbove all，keep your hands away from your eyes，mouth and nose，all of which serve pathways(途径) for the viruses(病毒) to enter your body2Wash your handsIf you have to touch your

53、on the skin or other surfaces such as keyboards4Consider buying a mask in case you need it in the futureSome research suggests that masks reduce the risk of getting the flu viruses by as much as 80%But it also suggests that if you dont wash hands，the mask doesnt work wellSo wash your hands and use the mask，especially wearing face masks in crowded places is also useful5The
