44、nvironment and how they should best behave in it.They also help each other out whenever theres trouble.Personality,just as among people,varies among trees.Some are anxious,some bold.On the authors land,there are three oak trees growing close together.One of the oak trees always starts to shed its le
45、aves two weeks earlier than the others.Since they all experience the same temperature,the same soil and the same length of day,such variables cant be the explanation.So whats happening?Well,this tree is simply more careful than the others.Whoever holds on to their leaves longer can do more photosynt
46、hesis(光合作用) and store more nutrients.However,the longer a tree keeps its leaves,the higher the risk of injury.Not only do trees make their own decisions,they also learn from their mistakes.A tree,for example,keeping its leaves too long during one year will never make this mistake again.This leads to
47、 several other conclusions:trees must notice the temperature and the length of the day and be able to save their experiences somewhere.Obviously,trees dont have brains,but it is thought that in the sensitive tips of their roots they keep track of information and experiences.But trees arent only clev

55、d to talk much more than women.It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men.This is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are,and also have the ability to speak more clearly,precisely,and more quickly than men.In one study it was found that women s
56、poke for an average of three minutes describing a painting,as opposed to the thirteen-minute average it took men to describe it.Men and women also tend to have a very different nonverbal way of communicating,which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is tryi
57、ng to say.Mens body language is much more reserved when they are talking to women.Men tend not to make as much eye contact and they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them.Men avoid other peoples body space while talking,and they also tend to sit back when talking.All of these ha
58、ve given off the impression of disinterest or boredom.Women are by far better listeners and much more enjoyable to talk with and they tend to raise more topics for conversation.Women also make it clearer whether or not the conversation is going somewhere or just stuck in neutral.After learning about
59、 our styles of communicating with each other,I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating,what fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”?The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost.The question everyone asks himself or hersel

66、lants have special structures called chloroplasts (叶绿体) that animals dont have.These structures are filled with chlorophyll,which gives leafy green plants their green color.Their main job is to absorb light from the sun.Chloroplasts can absorb every color except green.Light makes chlorophyll active.
67、It creates an energy that separates water out into hydrogen and oxygen.38 Hydrogen from the water combines with carbon from the carbon dioxide we breathe out.Oxygen is sent out into the air.39 Plants rely on the carbon dioxide that we breathe out,and we rely on the oxygen that they breathe out.This
68、is one good reason for protecting plant life on Earth.Many plants can produce a constant supply of oxygen for us.We need plants in order to survive.Conservation (保护) projects around the globe are aimed at protecting our natural resources,including numerous species of plants.40A.Plants are producers.
69、B.Chemical reactions take place.C.Animals cant live without water.D.People and plants make perfect partners.E.So how do plants do it,and why cant we?F.There would be too much carbon dioxide in the air.G.Our quality of life and the fresh air we breathe depend upon our green plant partners.答案3640 AEBD
