Talking to plants makes them grow, especially if you ‘re a woman ,according to an experiment by the Ryal  Horticultural Society(RHS皇家園藝學(xué)會(huì)).

Women gardeners’ voices speed up growth of tomato plants much more than men’s, it found.

In an experiment that ran over a month, they found that tomato plants grew up  two inches taller if they were serenaded by the sweet tones of a female rather tha a male.

Appropriately the most effective talk came from Sarah Darwin ,whose great-great grandfather was legendary botanist(植物學(xué)家)Charles Darwin, one of the founding fathers of the RHS’ Scientific Committee. She read a passage from On the Orgin of Species and beat nine other”voices”.

Her plant grew nearly two inches taller than the best performing male and half an inch higher than her nearest competitor.

The experment began in Apirl,2009 at RHS Garden Wisley in Surrey. A variety of recorded voices were picked to play to 10 taomato plants over a month. Every plant was played a voice through headphones connected to the plant pot, and the conditions for all the plants remained the same throughout the experiment. To ensure the experiment was fair, two control plants were also left to grow in silence.

The results showed that women on average saw their plants rise by an inch on their male competitors. Some men were so bad that their plants actually grew less than a plant that was left completely alone.

Colin Crosbie, the leader at RHS, said:”We’re not sure why the female voice is more effecitive, It could be that they have a greater range of pitch and tone that affects the sound waves that hit the plant. Sound waves are an emvironmental effect just like rain or light.”

67.What is the best title for the passage?

A. Plants can’t grow faster without female voices

B. Women’s voices are more useful than men’s

C. Women’s voices make plants grow faster

D. Voices have positive effects on the growth of plants

68.The underlined word”serenaded” in Paragraph 3 most probably means”________”.

A.sung songs to

B.spoken to

C.talked about

D. played music to

69.According to the passage, ten_________were used in the experiment.

A.tomato plants

B.headphones

C. tape recorders

D.plant pots

70.What can we know about the findings of the experiment from the passage?

A. The women’s voices made the palnts grow faster by half an inch than the men’s.

B.Sarah Darwin’s plant grew 2 inches taller than her neraest competitor’s.

C. The plants which grew in silence did not necessarily grow the slowest

D. The women’s plants grew 2 inches taller than the men’s on average.

       When I read “Would he love me?”, I always wondered if my dad cared about me. I used to think about him all the time, especially on Father’s Day. All the kids would be with their dads and they would ask me where my dad was, so I would tell them that he was out of town. Tha was all that I could really say because I didn’t know. For all your kids who have a dad, tell him how much you love him, becaue there are plenty of kids who would love to have a dad.

     Rock music in one form or another is the most popular type of music all over the world. But where did it
come from?
     Rock began in the USA in the early 1950s. At that time, rhythm and blue music was very popular with
black Americans. "R&B" was a mixture of black religious (宗教) music and jazz. It had strong rhythms (節(jié)奏)
that you could dance to and simple, fast words.
     Noticing the success of R&B music, white musicians started to copy the same style. By the mid 1950s, this
new white R&B music, called rock 'n' roll, had become very popular. Singers like Elvis Presley and Bill Haley
attracted millions of teenage fans (愛(ài)好者). Their music was fast and loud. Many older people thought that
rock ' n' roll was very dangerous.
     By the early 1960s, even rock ' n' roll had become old fashioned. Many of the songs had begun to sound
the same. It was at that time that a new group from England became popular-The Beatles.
      The Beatles first started by singing American style songs, but they soon developed their own style, with
more complicated (復(fù)雜的 ) tunes (曲調(diào) ). They also introduced different instruments. Groups like The
Beatles had a very important influence on the style of popular music.
     By the early 1970s,rock ' n' roll had developed into a new form of music. Electronics (電子) had replaced
the amplified (增大的) guitars and drums of rock 'n' roll."Rock" had arrived.
     Rock music has continued to change and develop. It has combined with music from different parts of the
world. Today, there are hundreds of different types of rock music, and almost every country has its own form
of rock.

1. What is the best title for the text?
A. Popular Music
B. The History of Rock Music
C. Different Forms of Music in America
D. The Beatles
2. It can be inferred from the text that Elvis Presley and Bill Haley____.
A. were singers of Jazz
B. were singers in the mid 1950s
C. were members of The Beatles
D. were popular with old people
3. It is clear tha t "R&B" ______ .

The bedroom door opened and a light went on, signaling an end to nap time．The toddle（初學(xué)走路的嬰兒）, sleepy-eyed, clambered to a swinging stand in his crib．He smiled, reached out to his father, and uttered what is fast becoming the cry of his generation: "iPhone!"

       Just as adults have a hard time putting down their iPhones, so the device is now the Toy of Choice for many 1-, 2- and 3-year-olds．The phenomenon is attracting the attention and concern of some childhood development specialists．

Natasha Sykes, a mother of two in Atlanta, remembers the first time her daughter, Kelsey, now 3 but then barely 2 years old, held her husband's iPhone．"She pressed the button and it lit up．I just remember her eyes．It was like 'Whoa!' "The parents were charmed by their daughter's fascination．But then, said Ms．Sykes （herself a Black Berry user）, "She got serious about the phone．" Kelsey would ask for it．Then she'd cry for it．"It was like she'd always want the phone," Ms．Sykes said．

Apple, the iPhone's designer and manufacturer, has built its success on machines so user-friendly that even technologically blinded adults can figure out how to work them, so it makes sense that sophisticated children would follow．Tap a picture on the screen and something happens．What could be more fun?

The sleepy-eyed toddler who called for the iPhone is one of hundreds of iPhone-loving toddlers whose parents are often proud of their offspring's ability to slide fat fingers across the gadget's screen and pull up photographs of their choice．

Many iPhone apps on the market are aimed directly at preschoolers, many of them labeled "educational," such as Toddler Teasers: Shapes, which asks the child to tap a circle or square or triangle; and Pocket Zoo, which streams live video of animals at zoos around the world．

Along with fears about dropping and damage, however, many parents sharing iPhones with their young ones feel guilty．They wonder whether it is indeed an educational tool, or a passive amusement like television．The American Academy of Pediatrics is continually reassessing its guidelines to address new forms of "screen time．" Dr．Gwenn Schurgin O'Keeffe, a member of the academy's council, said, "We always try to throw in the latest technology, but the cellphone industry is becoming so complex that we always come back to the table and wonder- Should we have a specific guideline for them?"

Tovah P. Klein, the director of a research center for Toddler Development worries that fixation on the iPhone screen every time a child is out with parents will limit the child's ability to experience the wider world.

As with TV in earlier generations, the world is increasingly divided into those parents who do allow iPhone use and those who don't. A recent post on UrbanBaby.com, asked if anyone had found that their child was more interested in playing with their iPhone than with real toys. The Don't mothers said on the Website: "We don't let our toddler touch our iPhones ... it takes away from creative play." "Please ... just say no. It is not too hard to distract a toddler with, say ... a book."

Kathy Hirsh-Pasek, a psychology professor who specializes in early language development, sides with the Don'ts. Research shows that children learn best through activities that help them adapt to the particular situation at hand and interacting with a screen doesn't qualify, she said.

Still, Dr. Hirsh-Pasek, struck on a recent visit to New York City by how many parents were handing over their iPhones to their little children in tha subway, said she understands the impulse (沖動(dòng)). "This is a magical phone," she said. "I must admit I'm addicted to this phone."

41．The first paragraph in the passage intends to ______.

       A．get us to know a cute sleepy-eyed child in a family

       B．show us how harmful the iPhone is

       C．lead us to the topic of the toddlers' iPhone-addict

       D．explain how iPhone appeals to toddlers

42．According to the author, iPhones are popular with both adults and young kids because they are______.

       A．easy to use                               B．beautiful in appearance

       C．cheap in price                             D． powerful in battery volume

43．The underlined word "them" in the seventh paragraph refers to ______.

       A．televisions           B．cellphones            C．iPhones              D．screens

44．The tone of the author towards parents sharing iPhones with their children is ______.

       A．negative            B．subjective            C．objective              D．supportive

45．The passage mainly tells us ______.

       A．children's iPhone addict is becoming a concern

       B．iPhone is winning the hearts of the toddlers

       C．Apple is developing more user-friendly products

       D．ways to avoid children's being addicted to iPhone games
