scientific studies have shown that plants communicate with each other and with other living things in a surprising number of ways.to understand them，scientists say，we just have to learn their language.farmers are especially interested in what plants have to say.“plants are able to communicate with all sorts of organisms (有机体)they can communicate with giant bacteria，with other plants and with insects.they do this chemically，” said cahill，an ecology professor of the university of alberta in canada.plant scientists are just beginning to understand this chemical “language”cahill says studies have shown，for example，that plants can evaluate conditions in their immediate environment and take appropriate actions.plants have an ability，for example，to signal pain or discomfort caused by anything from temperature extremes to an insect attack.jack schultz，a professor of chemical ecology at the university of missouri，says when a plant senses that its being eaten，it cannot walk away from trouble；on the contrary，it will release a chemical vapor that alerts other plants nearby.“their language is a chemical language，and it involves chemicals that move through the air that are easy to be changeable，and most of all are smells that we are familiar with，” schultz explained.“all plants responded to the attack by changing their chemistry to defend themselves，” schultz recalled.“but we were quite surprised to find that nearby plants also changed their chemistry to defend themselves，even though they were not part of the experiment.”studies have also shown that plants under attack release pleasant chemicals.those chemicals attract friendly insects that attack the pests eating the plant.in the end，plants ability to communicate their needsand our ability to understand themcould help farmers reduce the use of poisonous chemicals，cut operating costs and limit damage to the environment.5the recent scientific studies have shown that plants can_.acommunicate with other living things in a chemical waybhardly react to any sudden change in temperaturecuse a very special chemical language which is familiar to usdrespond to the attack by giving off poisonous chemicals6when being eaten

“language”cplants can talk dhow plants protect themselves【语篇解读】本文是一篇科普类文章，主要讲述了“植物的特殊语言”及其功能，以及这种特殊语言对农业生产可能产生的指导意义。5a细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“plants are able to communicate with all sorts of organisms (有机体).they do this chemically.”可知，植物能够与其他生物通过化学方式进行交流。6d细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“when a plant senses that its being eaten.on the contrary，it will release a chemical vapor.”以及文章倒数第二段中的“those chemicals attract friendly insects that attack the pests eating the plant.”可知，当植物被昆虫吞食的时候，植物会释放一种化学蒸汽，这种化学蒸汽能够吸引有益的昆虫来袭击害虫。7a词义猜测题。根据上下文语境可知，植物在遭受攻击时会释放一种化学物质，这种化学物质有两种功能，一是警示危险的存在，二是发出求助信息。由此可知，此处的alert应该意为“警示，警惕”，即warn。8c主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了“植物的特殊语言”及其功能。c项既能概括文章的主题又生动风趣，尤其是talk一词充满了拟人化的幽默感。ii. 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。there were times when it was only schoolchildren who felt sick before they got their grades._1_many teachers are opposed to it.they dont mind being evaluated.but they are upset because the results are then being posted on the internet and accessible to millions of internet users._2_the teachers are graded on categories such as “motivated”，“good instruction”，“easy examinations”，or even “sexy”_3_the creators of the website say that the students are only being offered the chance to provide teachers with some feedback(反馈)about their classroom instruction.bernd dicks founded the website with three friends._4_on a grading scale of one to six, the teachers average grade is as high as 2.7 and it has been improving lately.he often says the impression is that students are bullying(欺负)their teachers.but there is also bullying of the students by teachers.“teachers must also learn to live with criticism，” he added.but still, the website is not totally prevented from being manipulated(人为操纵)，as one teacher near the northern city of hanover recently proved._5_within a few days, seven of his colleagues were listed in the top 10 rankings of germanys best teachers.aon the website www.spickmich.de during the past four months students have posted evaluations of 100，000 teachers.bhe registered himself on the website as a student and then rated his own teaching colleagues highly.cmany teachers think that their privacy has been disturbed.dbut now teachers in germany are scared, too, as they are being graded by their students.ehe says that the students are largely quite satisfied with their teachers.fhe says a majority of the students expressed their dissatisfaction with their teachers.ghe tried to make friends with students as many as possible.【语篇解读】 老师给学生写评语司空见惯，可是如果换而言之呢？在德国有的学生通过在网上给老师打分来判断其教学成绩和综合能力，这引起了轩然大波。1d上一句的before they got their grades说的是相对于学生而言，而该项的now teachers in germany are scared既说明本文的中心，也引起了读者的兴趣。2a上一句的accessible to millions of internet users和该项的on the website www.spickmich.de吻合，用例证说明老师们对这种方式的反感。3c将老师分为“motivated”，“good instruction”，“easy examinations”或可接受，但是上一句的or even “sexy”说明对教师的不良影响之深，这些做法必然会引起不良反应，和该项的privacy has been disturbed吻合。4e该项的he says和上一句的bernd dicks吻合，说明这个建立网站的人的观点和看法。f项和事实正好相反，所以不能选择。5b该项的registered himself on the website as a student and then rated his own teaching colleagues highly是对上一句的being manipulated的举例说明。g项并不属于人为操纵的例子。iii.
