If you put a buzzard in a ________ six to eight feet square and open at the top, the birdwill be a prisoner, though it can fly．The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet．Without space to run, as its habit, it will not even try to fly, but remain a prisoner for life in its small buzzard prison with no top．The bat that flies around at night cannot take off from the ground． If it is placed on the ground, all it can do is to walk slowly about helplessly and no doubt, painfully． If it reaches a higher place, it will be able to throw itself into the air． Then it takes off immediately． But on flat （平的） ground, it will never fly．A bee dropped into a cup will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out．It never sees the means of escape at the top, but keeps trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom．It will look for a way where none exists （存在）, until it completely destroys itself． In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bee． They are struggling about with all their problems and difficulties, not realizing that the answer isright there above them．（1）Which of the following is a "pen" according to Paragraph 1？________（2）Why can't a buzzard fly through the top of a pen？________A It is too big and heavy to fly up．B The space is too small for it to startflying． C It is too hungry and weak to get out． D The place is comfortable for it to live．．（3）What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the bat？________A It prefers walking to flying．B It can take off at once on flat ground．C It flies only at night．D It takes off only from a higher place．．（4）What can a bee do if it drops into a cup？________A It'll escape from the top．B It'll stay at the bottom without moving．C It'll lose the ability to fly．D It'll die of tiredness at last．．（5）What can we learn from the story？________A Many people like the buzzard， the bat and the bee．B Animals will also give up when in trouble．C We should try new ways to deal with difficulties．D Weshould solve problems by ourselves．．19. We usually think that plants always stay quiet and never speak． Grass doesn't cry when you cut it; flowers don't shout when they're picked． But this view of the world couldn't 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 don't sit quietly． They send a chemical called "hexvic" into the air． Humans can't 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 ________, much more than their neighbor．It was surprising that the plants that had not been bitten didn't send the chemical until they 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 wouldn't be hurt again by the same insects．（2）What does the underlined word "invaders" in Paragraph 5 refer to？________A Scientists．B 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 nearthem． D Plants won't give off chemicals until they are hurt．．（4）Which of the following is True according to the passage？________A Plants don't 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）What's the best title of the passage？________A Growing TomatoesB Talking PlantsC Harmful ChemicalsD Scientific Researches．20. Studying different languages increases our understanding of how humans communicate and their different cultures． However, almost 80% of the people in the world speak only 1% of its languages． Every 14 days a language dies． By 2100, half of the more than 7, 000 languages spoken on Earth today may disappear．Throughout history, the languages of dominant （统治的） groups have spread while the languages of native cultures have become ________． This happens because of government language policies, or because the dominant language becomes more useful in everyday life．Furthermore, many endangered languages aren't written down． When the last speakers of a language die and their language becomes extinct, their stories, songs, and other important information are lost, too．Central South America has some of the world's most endangered languages． The Kallawaya people speak a secret language that has details of thousands of medical plants． Today, fewer than 100 people speak it． In Central and Eastern Siberia, many Siberian languages now have only a few elderly speakers．Yuchi, which may be unrelated to any other language in the world, is one of the many native languages used in Oklahoma, the U．S．A． It is disappearing rapidly． In 2010, only five elderly people could speak this language．Luckily, native cultures around the world are using modern technology to help keep their endangered languages and cultures alive． Communities are creating dictionaries and libraries by using pictures, video, and audio to record the traditions of the last speakers of their language． If the young people don't speak and understand the words and stories of their ancestors （祖先）, the language will die． And when the language dies, part of the culture dies, too．（1）The underlined word "extinct" probably means________．A 繁荣B 灭绝C 古老D 时尚．（2）What do the native languages in Central Siberia and Oklahoma have in common？________A Both of them are secret languages．B Fewer people can speak themtoday． C They may be unrelated to other languages． D They are both spoken mainly by teenagers．．（3）To save a language， it is the most important for________ to learn it．A young peopleB parentsC scientistsD dominant groups．（4）What are the reasons why native languages die？________①the small number of speakers②the wide spread of the dominant languages③the use of modern technology④the language policies the governments carry outA ①②③B ①②④C ①③④D ②③④．（5）What does the writer want to tell us in the passage？________A It's necessary to study more languages．B It's good for people to speak the same language．C Preventing the loss of the world's languages isimportant． D Protecting languages is more important than protecting cultures．第二节阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯、意思完整．（共1小题，每小题5分，满分5分）21.
