lfromtheagingtreesandaccumulateontheplantationfloor.ThisispartofMotherNature’swayofrecyclingnutrients.Earthwormsandsoilmicrobesdecomposetheneedlesandreturnthenutrientstothesoil.Youngergrowthnearbyfinishestheprocessandtakesupthenutrients.(就像在天然森林里一样，针叶从老树上掉下来，堆积在种植园的地上。这是大自然循环养分的一部分。蚯蚓和土壤微生物会分解这些针叶，并将营养物质送回土壤。附近较年轻的植物完成了这一过程，并吸收了营养。)”解释的是氮的由来，空格处应该提出问题，询问空前所提到的氮是怎么来的，C选项“Wheredoesallthisnitrogencomefrom?(这些氮从何而来？)”发出疑问，问这些氮是从哪里来的，因此承上启下，符合语境，故选C。【答案】41.D42.B43.A44.C45.D46.C47.C48.A49.A50.C51.D52.B53.A54.B55.A【41题】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：类似的情况一直在发生。A.General普遍的；B.Strange奇怪的；C.Unusual不寻常的；D.Similar类似的。由下文“Whenyougetintoalineatthesupermarket,”和“Whenyou’reinahurrytoopenthedoor”举的例子以及语境可知，这里指“类似的”情况一直在发生。故选D项。【42题】考查动词词义辨析。句意：当你在超市排队时，你发现你选择了最慢的一队，它就是不动。A.stood站；B.chosen选择；C.crossed穿越；D.drawn画画。由上文“getintoaline”以及语境可知，这里指你“选择”在最慢的一队排队。故选B项。【43题】考查动词词义辨析。句意：当你急着开门，在钥匙圈上试了几把钥匙时，最后一把通常是有效的。A.try尝试；B.turn转动；C.find发现；D.remove移除。由下文“severalkeysonthekeyring”可知，这里指你已经“尝试”了几把钥匙。故选A项。【44题】考查动词词义辨析。句意：当你急着开门，在钥匙圈上试了几把钥匙时，最后一把通常是有效的。A.fits适合；B.
