23、 her name with rose petals! This is what you see on Valentines Day, a day named after Valentine who was a priest（牧师） in the third century Rome. When the king decided that single men could become better soldiers than those with wives, he didnt allow marriage. But Valentine continued to perform（主持） ma
24、rriage ceremonies（典礼） for young lovers in secret. When his actions were discovered, the king sentenced him to death. While in prison（监狱）, it is said that Valentine fell in love with the daughter of his prison guard. Before his death, he wrote her a letter, which he signed （签名）“From your Valentine”,
25、an expression that is still in use today. Valentine died for what he believed in and so he was made a Saint (圣徒), as well as becoming one of historys most romantic characters.Nowadays, Valentines Day is also popular among Chinese young people. Some students are planning to make Valentines cards for
26、parents, teachers and friends. Others want to hold parties at which they will exchange small gifts and eat heart-shaped（心形的） cakes.

29、in ChinaCThe worlds largest reef (礁), the Great Barrier Reef, has lost more than half of its coral (珊瑚) cover in the past 30 years because of global (全球) warming. The beauty of the Australian coast has been left lifeless. Scientists have been trying to find ways to save it, and now they may have fou
30、nd a special helping hand-volcanoes(火山). During a volcano eruption(火山喷发)，wherever hot lava(岩浆) goes, villages and plants are burned right down to the ground. How could it possible save life on Earth? When the lava goes into the ocean, it quickly cools down and becomes light rocks that can float in t
31、he water. For example, in 2006, shortly after the eruption of a volcano near Tanga, a southwest Pacific island, scientists found many large rocks floating on the ocean. These rocks traveled a long way from the island to Australia over the next eight months. But they didnt just float during this time
32、they acted like little lifeboat. Scientists found that the rocks “picked up” more than 80 kinds of corals, crabs and other life animals on their way, before arriving at the Great Barrier Reef. Once near the reef, these animal “passengers” can easily jump onto the rocks and go to their new home. “Its
33、 like a boat of people landing on an island,” Judith Winston, a biologist at the Virginia Museum of Natural History, US, told Scientific American. Since volcanoes have been on Earth for all of history, scientists say these “Lifeboats” might have even helped form the Great Barrier Reef in the first p
34、lace.( )31. What problem does the Great Barrier Reef face? A. There is less and less coral cover because of global warming. B. It lies in an area with volcanoes happening now and then. C. There are no living things on the Great Barrier Reef D. The Great Barrier Reef is getting smaller and smaller.(
35、)32. Which is the right order of the following event, according to the passage? (1) Lots of little animals climb onto the rocks. (2) Many huge light rocks are floating on the ocean. (3) Lava goes into the ocean after the eruption of a volcano. (4) Animals move to their new home through the rocks. A
36、(4) - (3) - (1)- (2) B. (2)- (1)- (4)- (3) C. (3 )- (1)- (2)- (4) D. (3)- (2)- (1)- (4)( )33. Whats the main idea of the passage? A. The beauty of the Great Barrier Reef is going away. B. Volcanoes can help the Great Barrier Reef become lively again. C. Global warming has a bad influence on the Grea
37、t Barrier Reef. D. Save volcanoes, save the Great Barrier ReefDWould it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generationtheir young trees?Professor Simard , forest ecologist( 生态学家) from the University of British Columbia, exp
38、lains how trees are much more complex（复杂）than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin（达尔文） thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard and her team have made a new discovery and showed just how wrong he was. In fact,the opposite is true: trees survive through their
39、 group work and support, passing around necessary nutrition (营养) like Nitrogen (氮) and carbon depending on who needs it.Nitrogen and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks, This makes sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amou
40、nt 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, These are usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. These “Mother T
41、rees” are connected to all the other trees in the forest by this network of fungi, and may manage the resources of the whole trees and plants in the forest. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to
42、grow. When humans cut down Mother Trees without paying attention to these highly complex tree societies or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances to save the whole forest.We didnt take any notice ofit Simard says sadly. Mother trees move nutrition into the young trees before dy
43、ing, but we never give them 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.( )34. The underlined sentence the opposite is true in Paragraph 2 probably means that trees_.A. compete for su
44、rvival B. protect their own wealthC. depend on each otherD. provide support for dying trees( )35. Mother trees are extremely important because they_.A. look the largest in size in the forestB. pass on nutrition to young treesC. seem more likely to be cut down by humansD. know more about the complex
45、tree societies( )36. The underlined word it in the last paragraph refers to_.A. how tree societies work B. how trees grow oldC. how forestry industry develops D. how young trees survive( )37. 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 Awesome Than You ThinkD. Trees Contribute To Our
