21、Plants are flowering faster than scientists predicted (预测) in reaction to climate change, which could have long damaging effects on food chains and ecosystems.
Global warming is having a great effect on hundreds of plant and animal species around the world, changing some living patterns, scientists say.
Increased carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air from burning coal and oil can have an effect on how plants produce oxygen, while higher temperatures and changeable rainfall patterns can change their patterns of growth.
“Predicting species, reaction to climate change is a major challenge in ecology,” said the researchers of several U.S. universities. They said plants had been the key object of study because their reaction to climate change could have an effect on food chains and ecosystem services.
The study, published on the Nature website, uses the findings from plant life cycle studies and experiments across four continents and 1,634 species. It found that some experiments had underestimated (低估) the speed of flowering by 8.5 times and leafing by 4 times.
“Across all species, the experiments under-predicted the speed of the advance—for both leafing and flowering— that results from temperature increase,” the study said.
The design of future experiments may need to be improved to better predict how plants will react to climate change, it said.
Plants are necessary for life on the Earth. They are the base of the food chain, using photosynthesis (光合作用) to produce sugar from carbon dioxide and water. They let out oxygen which is needed by nearly every organism on the planet.
Scientists believe the world’s average temperature has risen by about 0.8℃ since 1900, and nearly 0.2℃ every ten years since 1979.
So far, efforts to cut emissions (排放) of planet-warming greenhouse gases are not seen as enough to prevent the Earth heating up beyond 2℃ this century—a point scientists say will bring the danger of a changeable climate in which weather extremes are common, leading to drought, floods, crop failures and rising sea levels.
【1】What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?
A. Plants’ reaction to weather could have damaging effects on ecosystems.
B. The increasing speed of flowering is beyond scientists’ expectation.
C. Climate change leads to the change of food production patterns.
D. Food chains have been seriously damaged because of weather.
【2】We can learn from the study published on the Nature website that .
A. plants’ flowering is 8.5 times faster than leafing
B. there are 1,634 plant species on the four continents
C. scientists should improve the design of the experiments
D. the experiments failed to predict how plants react to climate change
【3】Scientists pay special attention to the study of plants because .
A. they can prove the climate change clearly
B. they are very important in the food chains
C. they play a leading role in reducing global warming
D. they are growing and flowering much faster than before
【4】What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs about the world’s temperature?
A. It needs to be controlled within 2℃ in this century.
B. Its change will lead to weather extremes.
C. It is 0.8℃ higher in 1979 than that of 1900.
D. It has risen nearly 0.2℃ since 1979.
22、阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
The Christmas holidays were fast approaching, and we had ordered many gifts online, So when the doorbell rang, I was sure some of the packages had arrived. I ran to the door, but no one was there. T sensed something and looked down, only to find a beautiful calico kitten (杂色猫) sitting there, looking up at me with big, intelligent eyes. There was no way that she could have rung the doorbell by herself. We figured that someone had found the kitten somewhere and left her there, and then rang the doorbell and ran away. They accurately guessed we would welcome an additional family member and take care of her.
My husband called her our little angel, so we named her Angelica. She turned out to be the perfect companion. Always by my side, she was more like a puppy than a kitten. She had plenty of energy that made every day special. As the days went by, Angelica filled our home with joy and she indeed was a blessing to me.
Angelica was brave, too. One snowy evening, I noticed Angelica behaving strangely. She constantly scratched (用爪刨) at our back door. With a sense of curiosity, I followed her outside. To my surprise, I found an old woman, my neighbor, Mrs. Jensen, fallen in the snow, unable to get up.
Thanks to Angelica’s cleverness, we got to Mrs. Jensen just in time. The warmth of Angelica nestled (偎依着) into her, keeping her safe until help arrived. That night, Angelica was not just my brave calico kitten, but an angel. The bond between us deepened greatly as I thanked my little angel, who had saved not just a neighbor, but filled our lives with love, laughter, and warmth.

24、 Emily Bonfim Camargo, a 10-yeiir-old girl, has cerebral palsy （大脑性瘫痪）. Because of her condition, her involuntary movements prevent her from freely holding objects with her hands or standing up. She's never been able to walk, but that doesn't mean she doesn’t have the same dreams and hopes as other children. In particular, she's always wanted to ride a bicycle.
“That was her dream, and I had 10 do something to help,” her grandfather. Clovis Urias dos Santos, a 69-year-old former construction worker? said. First he tried to make his granddaughter^ dream come true by buying her a tricycle （三轮车）. Unfortunately, she was unable to hold the handlebars to guide the vehicle, and she couldn't keep her balance on the seat. Her grandfather, however, isn't a man who is easily discouraged.
In his home workshop, he started to think of how he could make a more stable tricycle for her. He started to take things apart and put the useful pieces back together. “ I fixed the pedals （踏板）with brakes, and I didn't put on handlebars,” he told Sempre Familia a local news medium.
This vehicle isn't just fun； it's also practical. Clovis added a basket behind the seat, so that Emily can carry her backpack for school, or some groceries, because she likes to go to the supermarket and bakery with him. Emily's special tricycle is also stylish. "After the tricycle was ready, I painted it pink and purple because Emily chose those colors. She was very happy, and I was even happier," Clovis said.
There's no cure for cerebral palsy, although there is medicine to decrease involuntary muscle movements. So what does the future hold for Emily? Only time will tell, but the support of her family will fill her future with hope.
【1】What do we know about Emily from paragraph 1?
A.She can't afford a new bike.

D.She shares common dreams with others.
【2】Which of the following word can best describe Clovis?
A.Courageous and calm. B.Determined and loving.
C.Cooperative and generous. D.Ambitious and professional.
【3】How would Emily control the tricycle her grandfather made?
A.By holding the handlebars.
B.By keeping her balance on the seat.
C.By putting her hand on the brakes.
D.By pressing the brakes on the pedals.
【4】What's the main idea of the text?
A.A family that is full of love.
B.A tricycle made of useful pieces.
C.A girl got a present from her grandfather.
D.A grandfather creates a tricycle for his granddaughter.
