26、nerD.parting四、B Reading Compr(总题数：5，分数：50.00)Phyllis Wheatley is regarded as Americas first black poet. She was born in Senegal, Africa, about 1753 and brought to America aboard a slave ship at about the age of seven. John and Susannah Wheatley bought her for three pounds at a slave auction in Bosto
27、n in 1761 to be a personal servant of Mrs. Wheatley. The family had three other slaves, and all were treated with respect. Phyllis was soon accepted as one of the family, which included being raised and educated with the Wheatleys twin 15-year-old children, Mary and Nathaniel. At that time, most fem
28、ales, even from better families, could not read and write, but Mary was probably one of the best educated young women in Boston. Mary wanted to become a teacher, and in fact, it was Mary who decided to take charge of Phylliss education. Phyllis soon displayed her remarkable talents. At the age of tw
29、elve she was reading the Greek and Latin classics and passages from the Bible. And eventually, Mrs. Wheatley decided Phyllis should become a Christian.At the age of thirteen Phyllis wrote her first poem. She became a Boston sensation after she wrote a poem on the death of the evangelical preacher Ge
30、orge Whitfield in 1770. It became common practice in Boston to have “Mrs. Wheatleys Phyllis“ read poetry in polite society. Mary married in 1771, and Phyllis later moved to the country because of poor health, as a teacher and caretaker to a farmers three children. Mary had tried to interest publishe
31、rs in Phylliss poems but once they heard she was a Negro they werent interested.Then in 1773 Phyllis went with Nathaniel, who was now a businessman, to London. It was thought that a sea voyage might improve her health. Thirty-nine of her poems were published in London as Poems on Various Subjects, R
32、eligious and Moral. It was the first book published by a black American. In 1775 Phyllis wrote a poem extolling the accomplishments of George Washington and sent it to him. He responded by praising her talents and inviting her to visit his headquarters. After both of her benefactors died in 1777, an
33、d Mary died in 1778, Phyllis was freed as a slave. She married in 1778, moved away from Boston, and had three children. But after the unhappy marriage, she moved back to Boston, and died in poverty at the age of thirty.（分数：10.00）(1).What does the passage mainly discuss?（分数：1.00）A.Slavery and the tre

40、years ago, plant physiologists set out to grow roots by themselves in solutions in laboratory flasks. The scientists found that the nutrition of isolated roots was quite simple. They required sugar and the usual minerals and vitamins. However, they did not require organic nitrogen compounds. These r
41、oots got along fine on mineral inorganic nitrogen. Roots are capable of making their own proteins and other organic compounds. These activities by roots require energy, of course. The process of respiration uses sugar to make the high energy compound ATP, which drives the biochemical reactions. Resp
42、iration also requires oxygen. Highly active roots require a good deal of oxygen.The study of isolated roots has provided an understanding of the relationship between shoots and roots in intact plants. The leaves of the shoots provide the roots with sugar and vitamins, and the roots provide the shoot
43、s with water and minerals. In addition, roots can provide the shoots with organic nitrogen compounds. This comes in handy for the growth of buds in the early spring when leaves are not yet functioning. Once leaves begin photosynthesizing, they produce protein, but only mature leaves can “export“ pro
44、tein to the rest of the plant in the form of amino acids.（分数：10.00）(1).What is the main topic of the passage?（分数：1.00）A.The relationship between a plants roots and its shoots.B.What can be learned by growing roots in isolation.C.How plants can be grown without roots.D.What elements are necessary for

46、ogen compounds(4).Roots have the ability to _.（分数：1.00）A.make proteinsB.obtain fresh airC.produce inorganic nitrogenD.carry out activities without energy(5).According to the passage, what is ATP?（分数：1.00）A.A biochemical process.B.The tip of a root.C.A chemical compound.D.A type of plant cell.(6).The
47、 underlined word “intact“ in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _.（分数：1.00）A.matureB.wildC.wholeD.tiny(7).The use of the phrase “comes in handy“ underlined in Paragraph 2 indicates that the process is _.（分数：1.00）A.unavoidableB.predictableC.necessaryD.successful(8).It can be inferred from the passa
48、ge that, in the early spring, the buds of plants _.（分数：1.00）A.“export“ protein in the form of amino acidsB.do not require waterC.have begun photosynthesizingD.obtain organic compounds from the root(9).Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?（分数：1.00）A.The results of two
49、 experiments are compared.B.A generalization is made, and several examples of it are given.C.The findings of an experiment are explained.D.A hypothesis is presented, and several means of proving it are suggested.(10).Where is this passage likely to be found?（分数：1.00）A.A newsletter.B.A magazine.C.A storybook.D.A novel.Natural flavorings and fragrances are often costly and limited in supply.
