26、Young sunflowers turn and swing every day. New findings add to evidence that the plants are animal-like.

Harmer, a professor in the University of California at Davis, Department of Plant Biology, carried out a series of experiments on sunflowers in the field, in pots outdoors and in indoor growth chambers.

By staking plants so that they could not move, Harmer showed that he could destroy their ability to track the sun. He also noticed that sunflowers prevented from moving were not as tough and leafy as those that were free to move. When plants were moved indoor with a settled overhead light, they continued to swing back and forth for a few days.

The indoor plants did start tracking the “sun” again when the apparent source of lighting was moved across the room. The plants could reliably track the movement and return at night when the artificial day was close to a 24-hour cycle, but not when it was closer to 30 hours.

When sunflowers track the sun, the east sides of their stems grew more rapidly than the west sides. At night, the west sides grew faster as the stem swung the other way. The team identified a number of genes that were expressed at higher levels on the sunward side of the plant during the day or on the other side at night. A plant growth-regulating hormone (激素), called auxin, appears to be a key driver.

The “dance” to the sun cycle obviously slows when the sunflower matures (成熟) and its flowers open up. At that point, the plants stop moving during the day and settle down facing the sun in the east.

“Bees like warm flowers.” Harmer said, adding that the bees are cold-blooded, so landing on a warm flower saves them energy and perhaps feels really good.

“The morning warmth changes the flowers in a way to make them more appealing to insects, perhaps causing them to release more attractive scents earlier in the day.” he said “We’re currently testing this idea.”

【1】Why did Harmer do the experiment on sunflowers?

A．To see how sunflowers grow up.

B．To show what sunflowers’ genes are.

C．To study why sunflowers track the sun.

D．To check if sunflowers swing in cloudy days.

【2】What does the underlined word “staking” probably mean in Paragraph 3?

A．Tracking.

B．Fining.

C．Growing.

D．Searching.

【3】What is the result of sunflowers being stopped from moving?

A．They will produce a number of new genes.

B．They will grow faster than usual.

C．They won’t swing back though set free.

D．They won’t grow well.

【4】What is the advantage of sunflowers’ dance to the sun?

A．They attract more insects.

B．They save more energy.

C．They mature more rapidly.

D．They produce more flowers.

27、During my third year of university, I spent six months studying in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Many are worried about travelling to Rio but I promise, it is worth a visit. Now I want to share my top recommendations (推荐) for experiencing Rio less as a tourist but more like a native Brazilian.

Pedra Bonita

Rio is full of hiking routes, and some Brazilians love to spend an afternoon hiking. My favorite route of all has to be Pedra Bonita. Pedra Bonita involves a steep climb of about an hour through tall trees, and I admit it is difficult in Rio’s heat, but you are rewarded at the top with a wonderful view of the city, standing high above the green landscape and blue sea below.

Mureta da Urca

One thing you are sure to find in Rio is an amazing sunset, but a lot of the best spots tend to be full of tourists. In my opinion, Mureta da Urca is the most relaxing place to watch the sun set over the silver sea, with the figure of Christ the Redeemer standing tall in the background.

Pedra do Sal

Pedra do Sal is a historical area in the city centre and on Monday nights it is brought to life by the sound of samba. Hundreds of people gather in the street, food and drink stalls are set up and it becomes a giant street party with everyone enjoying the happy sound of live samba!

Picanha

If there were one Brazilian food I could bring back to the UK, it would be picanha. It is the tastiest cut of steak I have ever tasted, served alongside rice and beans.

【1】The writer once went to Rio de Janeiro to ________.

A．stay there as a tourist for six months

B．study as a short-time international student

C．live as a native Brazilian

D．learn how to be a native Brazilian

【2】Which of the following is probably the favorite of body-builders?

A．Pedra Bonita.

B．Mureta da Urca.

C．Pedra do Sal.

D．Picanha.

【3】What can you enjoy in Pedra do Sal?

A．A wonderful view of the city.

B．An amazing sunset.

C．A giant street party.

D．A nice Brazilian food.

28、   We humans love to stare into our smart devices. We gaze for hours—about 10 hours and 39 minutes a day—at our computers, smartphones, tablets and televisions. Is all this staring bad for us? It might be, mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.

Blue light is a type of electromagnetic radiation with a very short wavelength that produces a high amount of energy. While it’s true that light can damage our eyes under certain circumstances, there’s no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes. But many people still think it is, which is why blue—light—blocking glasses are so popular. So, do the glasses work?

“Everyone is very concerned that blue light may be causing damage to the eye, but there’s no evidence that it may be causing serious damage,” Dr.Rahul Khurana, a clinical spokesman, told Business Insider.

Blue light exposure is nothing new. In fact, the sun is the largest source of blue light. Moreover, blue light is also present in LED light. But if blue light isn’t harmful, then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when we’re looking at our screens? The answer is eyestrain(眼疲劳). More than 60 percent of people experience eye problems associated with digital eyestrain. And blue light, it seems isn’t the cause. Instead, our eyes are so strained because most of us blink less when we stare at our digital devices. So, if eyestrain is the real issue, blue-light-blocking glasses are probably of little use.

【1】What do we know about blue light?

A.It has the shortest wavelength.

B.It’s a kind of nuclear radiation.

C.It consumes a great deal of energy.

D.It may come from electronic devices.

【2】What causes the popularity of blue-light-blocking glasses?

A.Evidence of their benefits to eyes.

B.Widespread use of smart devices.

C.Belief in blue light’s harmful effect.

D.Scientific understanding of blue light.

【3】What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?

A.Rubbing eyes makes people strained.

B.Blue light exposure is hardly avoidable.

C.Blue light may connect with tired eyes.

D.Eye problems are not easy to deal with.

【4】According to the text, wearing blue-light-blocking glasses may be _______.

A.useless B.harmful C.tiring D.beneficial
