Hundreds of years ago, no dandelions (蒲公英) grew in North America. Then people
came from Europe.They had dandelion seeds on their clothes. The seeds fell from their
clothes onto the ground. Since then, dandelions have spread all over.
Most people believe that dandelions are weeds. They do not
want them in their gardens. But some people think that dandelion
flowers are pretty. And others think that dandelions taste good.
They cook dandelion leaves or put them into a fresh salad. The
leaves must be picked before the flowers come out or they will
not taste good. Some people make dandelion flowers into wine.
Dandelions do not die easily. If the winter is not very cold, their leaves may
stay green.
When the spring arrives, their flowers come out. Each night their bright yellow
flowers close
up. When the sun shines the next day, they open up again. Dandelion flowers are very
unusual. They do not have to get pollen (花粉) from another dandelion flower in order
to form seeds. So after several days, the yellow flower turns white and soft. A tiny
brown seed forms at the bottom of each white petal (花瓣). When the wind blows,
the
petals float away.
Each white petal carries a seed away. This lets the dandelions spread their seeds
all over.
New dandelions grow where the seeds land.
31. The underlined word “weeds” means
.
A. pretty flowers
B. fresh vegetables
C. wild plants
D. green
trees
32. When is the best time to pick dandelion leaves to eat?
A. After their flowers come out.
B. After their flowers turn white.
C. Before their flowers come out.
D. Before their flowers close up.
33. What is the best title for this passage?
A. The History of Dandelions
B. Dandelions: Flowers or Food
C. The Use of Dandelions
D. How to Grow Dandelions
D
Do you know what you’d like to be when you grow up? It takes most people many
years to find this out. For the young artist Alexandra Nechita, it never really seemed
to be a question. From the day she began drawing at the age of two, she was an artist.
Alexandra Nechita was born in Romania in 1985 and moved to California when she
was still a baby. As a little child, she loved colouring in her colouring books.
Her parents hoped she could spend more time playing with other children, so they
took away her colouring books. Alexandra began drawing her own pictures and colouring
them in.
By the time Alcxandra was seven ycars old,
she had begun painting with oil paints. When
Alexandra took a local art class, her teacher was
amazed at the young artist’s unusual style of
painting. Alexandra’s work was similar in some
ways to the paintings by famous artists like
Picasso. These artists did not use a realistic
style
of
painting.
They
allowed
their
imaginations to play an
important part in their work. The interesting thing was that little Alexandra had
never seen the work of these artists. People called her “Little Picasso”. This
was a great honour, but Alexandra’s style of
painting was all her own.
Alexandra’s first public show was held at a Los Angeles public library
when she was
only eight years old. People were amazed at how young Alexandra was, but mostly they
loved her imaginative artwork. It did not take long for Alexandra and her work to
become famous. She appeared on television programs and in newspapers and magazines
all over the world. The sale of a single piece can earn the young artist thousands
of dollars. But that is not why Alexandra creates artwork. She just cannot imagine
doing anything else that would bring her such joy and satisfaction.
Today, Alexandra is a full-time artist. She also works to help support the arts
in schools. Alexandra is a strong believer in the power of art as a tool of
communication and a bridge to building peace throughout the world.
34. When did Alexandra begin drawing pictures?
A. At the age of eight.
B. At the age of seven.
C. At the age of two.
D. In the year of 1985.
35. Alexandra was called “Little Picasso” because
.
A. shc learned to paint from Picasso
B. her style of painting was
like Picasso’s
C. she was one of Picasso’s big fans
D. her style of painting was
unusual
36. What can we learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4?
A. Only painting can make her so happy and satisfied.
B. Only money can make her so happy and satisfied.
C. Anything can make her feel happy and satisfied.
D. Nothing can make her feel happy and satisfied.
37. According to the passage, which word can best describe Alexandra?
A. Polite.
B. Generous.
C. Patient.
D.
Creative.
