Some recommend playing music for your houseplants, having conversations with them, or even giving them a gentle touch now and then. Most of these practices are probably more for the benefit of the gardener
32、than the garden, but generally innocuous enough. That is, except for one. Your plants really dislike it when you touch them, apparently.A new study out of the La Trobe Institute for Agriculture and Food has found that most plants are extremely sensitive to touch, and even a light touch can significa
33、ntly stunt their growth.“The lightest touch from human, animal, insect, or even plants touching each other in the wind, can cause a huge gene response in the plant,” Jim Whelan, who led the new study,said. Within 30 minutes of being touched,10% of the plants genome is changed. This involves a huge e
34、xpenditure of energy which is taken away from plant growth. If the touching is repeated, then plant growth is reduced by up to 30%.”Whelan and his team are still trying to figure out why plants respond, at the genetic level, so strongly. They do have some theories, however. We know that when an inse
35、ct lands on plant, genes are activated preparing the plant to defend itself against being eaten,” said Dr.Yan Wang, co-author of the study.Until more research is done, its just a guess at this point. Still, the findings might already lead to new methods for how agriculturalists handle their crops, t
36、o best promote healthier growth.Its worth noting that while the study found that plants often respond to just a single touch in negative ways, its really repeated touching that causes lasting stunted growth. Thats because the plants are looking for patterns in the touching, to distinguish harmful to
37、uch from random touch. So it doesnt have to weigh on your conscience each time you accidentally brush up against a bush during a walk through the woods.32. What does the underlined word innocuous” in the first paragraph mean?A. Practical.B. Useless.C. Harmless.D. Dangerous.33. Why can touching preve

It indirectly consumes the plants energy.34. Whats the significance of the study by Whelan and his team?A. It gives us more

Our children are learning about the world from many sources without p
41、arental involvement. 36 Perhaps the only opportunity of the day to talk with each other is at the dinner table. So how can we gather our family to the table and have quality meal time together?Eating meals together is not an easy thing and does not necessarily mean the experience will be wonderful.
42、37 I first recommend trying setting a modest goal of two times a week and building from there.Learning to shop wisely and prepare food is a useful skill which is becoming more important with rising food prices. I usually take my kids with me to shop, so we can practice thrift(节俭). 38 They are proud
43、to contribute to the meal and enthusiastic about the mealtime. 39 But there are ways to make food preparation fast and easy. Soups can be made in quantities to last two or three dinners. And when cooking rice or potatoes, make enough for a few meals.The interruption of phone call or text message is
44、a sure way to break the conversation and remind everyone of events beyond the dinner table. At our home, we make it a rule that all cell phones are in silent mode. 40 A. Food is better eaten with the people we love.B. Even within family, it takes practice to get along.C. Even when everyone is home,
45、they do their own things.D. Given a little guidance, young children can also be helpful in the kitchen.E. It makes our time together more relaxing and helps have a sound conversation.F.
