（A）

When I was told to play for a drama competition, I became nervous. I had never done anything like this before. But after reading Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, I was exited about what was to come. The story was great and the sentences were so funny. I wanted to give it a go.

I was playing Sir Toby Belch, a very funny old knight（骑士）. I had to remember a lot of sentences and very funny old words. I worked hard in order to act well, like a real knight from the old days. But the most difficult job was to be funny in all my acting. This is quite different from the way I am in real life.

“OK. It’s time to be a different me now!” I said to myself. At first, I couldn’t do anything naturally. I don’t know what to do when acting in this silly way. But I always told myself that I was Sir Toby now and I should forget who I really was. Even when I was in the bath, I was thinking about Sir Toby’s words and actions and trying to do everything like Sir Toby did.The competition day finally came. When it was my turn to perform, I took a deep breath and began my part. I tried hard to make my words clear enough to be understood and my actions funny enough to make everybody laugh. When the results were finally read out, I immediately knew we had won first prize. I made it.

From this experience, I’ve come to know that I can be a different person. It doesn’t mean I’ve changed my personality, but I can do something I had never imagined possible.

Create locales in Yongqing Fang worth visiting

BY: Kinny Chen/ UPDATED: March 21, 2018

1. She inn

It is probably the most ideal place for you to have a chat with your besties. A fully transparent glass house with a balloon wall of color champagne and a ball pit of Tiffany blue, isn’t it a dreamlike place? Beside the ball pit are a line of cute tents, in which you can grab a cup of coffee, have some snacks and share the happy moments with your friends.

In the era when smart phones prevail, most of us have not picked up pens to write letters for a long time. The items in the Time Postoffice, however, may evoke your desire to write a letter again.

Beijing Opera is one of the most important opera styles in China. It is an art on the stage. It has about 200 years’ history. It is not only a treasure of the

Chinese nation but also a cultural symbol of China. Similar to the western operas, the Beijing Opera is a combination of singing, dancing, martial arts, music and literature, so it is also called the “Oriental Opera” by western people.

Beijing Opera uses special imagery in creating the characters. All roles are divided according to sex, personality, age and profession and social status. Hangdong is the general term for role types in Beijing Opera. There are four types of roles in Beijing Opera today. They are sheng, dan, jing and chou. The sheng is the male protagonist, the dan the female protagonist, the jing (painted face) a male supporting role with a different characteristics, and chou (clown) a comic or negative figure. Each kind of role has their own face-painting and dressing to indicate their identities.

The opera’s performance requires not only the mellow voice but also the proficiency of martial actions. A successful opera actor must suffer from the tough practicing period.

A new study finds that plants communicate with one another to warn of danger.

We often consider plants as the furniture of the natural world. They don’t move; they don’t make sounds; they don’t seem to act on anything. But as is often the case, plants talk to each other all the time. And the language is chemical.

Over the years, scientists have reported that different types of plants, from trees to tomatoes, give out chemicals into the air to help neighboring plants. These chemical warnings can spread information about one plant’s disease or infestation, so other plants can protect themselves. But how plants receive and act on many of the information exactly is still mysterious.

In this week’s Science Magazine, researchers in Japan offered some explanations. They have found out one chemical message and traced it all the way from beginning to end.

The scientists looked at tomato plants infested by a common pest. To start out, they grew plants in two separate plastic spaces connected by a tube. One plant was infested and placed upwind and the other was uninfested and placed downwind. The downwind plants were later exposed to the pest. The results showed that plants near sick neighbors before were able to protectthemselves better against the pest.

They found one chemical appeared more often in the exposed plants. The chemical is called Hex Vic. The scientists discovered where Hex Vic come from, and put it over healthy plants. Those plants were then able to produce Hex Vic. Researchers made sure that uninfested plants could fight off bugs and diseases. How do they know when to protect themselves? They are warned first by their friendly plant neighbors.

It is not a simple story, and it may be happening in more plant species than tomatoes. It may also be happening with more chemical signals that are still unknown to us. In a word, we know that plants not only communicate, but also look out for one another.

41. According to the passage, how can plants talk to each other?

A. By sending chemicals.

B. By using words.

C. By moving all the time.

D. By passing pests.

42. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

plants.

B. Researchers in Germany carried out an experiment on plants’

communication.

C. How plants receive and act on many of the information exactly is still

mysterious.

D. The readers can find some explanations about plants’ communication

in next

week’s Science Magazine.

43. “The researchers also studied leaves from exposed plants and unexposed

plants.”

can be put at the beginning of______.

A. Paragraph 3

B. Paragraph 4

C. Paragraph 5

D. Paragraph

6

44. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this article?

A. To let readers know what a new study found.

B. To urge readers to buy the latest Science Magazine.

C. To ask readers to protect the plants from being polluted.

D. To explain how to find evidence of plants’ communication.

45. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. How to grow plants well.

B. Some mysterious chemicals.

C. Talking plants and friendly warnings.

D. How to avoid some terrible diseases for plants.
