【四川省绵阳市2024高考英语一模试题】 Let These Plants Swat the Bugs for You Some plants get so hungry they eat flies, spiders, and even small frogs. What's more amazing is that these plants occur naturally (in special environments) in every state. In fact, they're found on every continent except Antarctica. You've probably seen a Venus' flytrap. It's often sold in museum gift stores, department stores, and even supermarkets. A small plant, it grows 6 to 8 inches tall in a container. At the end of its stalks（茎）are specially modified leaves that act like traps. Inside each trap is a lining of tiny trigger（触发）hairs. When an insect lands on them, the trap suddenly shut. Over the course of a week or so, the plant feeds on its catch. The Venus' flytrap is just one of more than 500 species of meat-eating plants, says Barry Meyers-Rice, the editor of the International Carnivorous Plant Society's Newsletter. Note: Despite any science-fiction stories（科幻小说）you might have read, no meat-eating plant does any danger to humans. Dr. Meyers-Rice says a plant is meat-eating, only if it does all four of the following: "attract, kill, digest, and absorb" some form of insects , including flies, butterflies, and moths. Meat-eating plants look and act like other green plants-well, most of the time. All green plants make sugar through a process called photosynthesis（光合作用）. Plants use the sugar to make food. What makes "meat-eating" plants different is their bug-catching leaves. They need insects for one reason: nitrogen（氮）. Nitrogen is a nutrient that they can't obtain any other way. Why? Almost all green plants on our planet get nitrogen from the soil. "Meat-eating" plants can't. They live in places where nutrients are hard or almost impossible to get from the soil because of its acidity（酸度）. So they've come to rely on getting nitrogen from insects and small animals. In fact, nutrient-rich soil is poisonous to "meat-eating" plants. Never fertilize（施肥）them! But don't worry, either, if they never seem to catch any insects. They can survive, but they'll grow very slowly. 64. Venus flytrap A. is a small plant which grows in a container. B. is a kind of plant which gets hungry easily. C. can attract, kill, digest and absorb some form of insects. D. grows 6-8 inches tall 65. From the passage, we know . A. "meat-eating" plants are found on every continent. B. all green plants get nitrogen from the soil. C. bug-catching leaves make "meat-eating" different from other plants. D. some "meat-eating" plants in the rainforest do danger to humans. 66. "Meat-eating" plants grow very slowly, . A. so you'd better fertilize them B. probably because the source of nitrogen is cut off. C. simply because they can't absorb nitrogen from the soil D. and then they will die slowly. 67. Which of the following is true? A. "Meat-eating" plants look and act like other green plants. B. No insects, no "meat-eating" plants. C. The reason why Venus flytrap needs flies is that it needs to get nutrient from them. D. Green plants make sugar at night. 68. What does the underlined word nutrient in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. 化学物 B.营养物 C. 肥料 D. 氮氢化合物 【参考答案】64—68、CCBCB

What would you do if you were lost in the dark forest at night? The first sensible lesson is that you shouldn’t bother trying to find your way in the dark at all, but just stay put until dawn. Because then you won’t trip over things? No, mainly because you’ll have an idea of direction. The sun rises in the east. But you will be amazed at how many people forget they know that. Apparently, the area underneath a holly bush provides a good makeshift shelter — they are thick, and evergreen. The next thing to do — or rather not to do — is panic, for the obvious reason that unless there is someone there to hear you scream, it will get you nowhere. Just try to think of nice, happy things.
There is always a point in films when a person who is lost in the desert or the snow, dehydrated(脱水的) and exhausted, comes across a set of their own footprints and realizes they have just walked in a huge, round circle. It is wrong to owe it to the unequal strengths or different lengths of your legs. Experiments prove that, without the sun or the moon (or landmarks) as a fixed guide, lots of small errors add up over time so the brain can’t correctly identify the “straight ahead” direction. To just get out of somewhere, pick a spot on the horizon and just head for it.
There are several ways to find directions in the dark, and by far the best is to establish north using the stars. Most people can identify the Plough, which is part of Ursa Major. It looks a lot like a saucepan. The Plough rotates through the sky, but let’s imagine the saucepan lying horizontally (水平地), with its handle on the left. You need to trace a line from the star at the right-hand base of the pan, through the star at the right-hand rim (边沿), and follow it upwards; the north star is roughly five times the distance between those two “pointer” stars. Then drop a vertical line from the North Star to the horizon and that’s north.
“Tonight is very cloudy and I can’t see the Plough.” Maybe luckily, it is quite windy. Keep in mind that almost all of our weather comes from a south-westerly direction. (This only works if you are in the British Isles). To find the direction, you can throw light bits of dried-out grass in the air and see which way they blow; or, if there are clouds and patches of clear sky, see which way they blow across the stars. You can also get an idea of direction from leggy plants. If they look as if they have been blown over, they will probably be pointing north-east. If they are simply leaning in one direction as they grow, there’s a good chance that is south (they will be reaching towards the sun). The last thing to do is to judge your direction and off you go.
12. What might be the best title of the passage ?
A. How to survive in the forest
B. How to protect yourself in the forest
C. How to direct your way out of the wild
D. What to do if you are lost
13. Which of the following pictures matches the description of the position of the north star?
14. Why will people often walk in a circle if they are lost in the desert or the snow?
A. Because without anything to refer to for directions, the brain will be confused by errors.
B. Because one of the legs is longer and stronger than the other.
C. Because the desert or the snow usually covers a large area for people to get across.
D. Because people usually feel dehydrated and exhausted in the desert or the snow.
15. If you were lost in Taklimakan Desert in China, _________ would NOT be dependable for you to identify the directions.
A. the sun
B. the North Star
C. wind
D. the moon

Have you got any wonderful plans for your coming winter vacation? Here are some wonderful films for you to kill time.
Away We Go
With a baby on his way, a young couple,
Burt and Verona, look at their lives and are puzzled about what they really want. So they hit the road and seek a place to call home. On their journey, they visit a handful of characters and learned a lot.
It’s about taking the scenic route in life, preparing for the hope and excitement and fear of new beginnings, while never forgetting to look out of the window. Orphan
Esther, a bright and well-behaved child, however, is not as innocent as she appears. Soon after being taken home, the peace of her adoptive family is completely changed
You want a good horror film about a child from hell? Then you got one! Do not, in any cases, take children to see it.
500 Days of Summer
Tom is in love with Summer from the moment he sees her. Can he accept that she simply likes him for now, not for forever? The movie is about Tom wrestling with that reality. Tom remembers his love, Summer, as a series of joys and bafflements. But Summer is just herself and he cannot have her.
Here is a rare movie that begins by telling us how it will end and is about how the hero has no idea why. 2024
The director Roland Emmerich successfully dresses a corny story with an old Mayan prediction, which is believed by many to happen in the coming 2024 and as a result, attracts millions of people into the cinema.
It’s just an entertaining Hollywood blockbuster(大片) with plenty of jokes, instead of a description of what the end of the world is really like. Don’t take it too seriously!

Ecotourism：A Different Way to Travel
Are you attracted to obscure places？Do you prefer to vacation away from other tourists？Are you careful to take only memories and to leave only footprints？If you answered yes to more than one of these questions，you just might be an ecotourist.
Ecotourists are people who want to experience the unspoiled natural world—and leave it that way when they return home.This trend started in the 1990s，and ecotourism is now growing three times faster than the tourism industry at large.The Kapawi Ecolodge in Ecuador’s remote Amazon Basin is contributing to that expansion，and it gives a snapshot of what ecotourism looks like.
At the Ecolodge，a small group of cabins sits in the middle of the Achuar people’s reserve and is only accessible by air.From here，visitors can explore parts of the Amazon rainforest seen by few outsiders.As they do，local Achuar guides explain how the forest is like their supermarket，where they find food，clothing，medicine and tools.As a result，tourists learn to appreciate the local culture as well as the natural environment.
The owners of Kapawi pay monthly rent to the Achuar people，but they also train the community to run and manage the lodge.They have agreed on a plan to turn the operation over to the Achuar completely by 2011.The owners are working to make ecotourism benefit and empower the local people.
You probably won’t start your own ecolodge，but you can be an ecotourist if you follow these guidelines：Protect the environment；Support local businesses；Respect the local customs and traditions.
The world is full of fascinating places to visit.As an ecotourist，you can enjoy them yourself and make sure that they remain beautiful for future generations as well.
