18．You can't complain of being lonely you don't make any effort to communicate with others．（　　）

4．Would it surprise you to learn that，like animals，trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation？
UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us
ever imagined．Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest，Simard shows just how wrong he was．In fact，the opposite is true：trees survive through their co-operation and support，passing around necessary nutrition"depending on who needs it"．
Nitrogen （氮） and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi （真菌）
networks，making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy．This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons （神经元） in our brains，and when one tree is destroyed，it affects all．
Simard talks about"mother trees"，usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend．She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation，transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow．When humans cut down"mother trees"with no awareness of these highly complex"tree societies"or the networks on which they feed，we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest．
"We didn't take any notice of it"Simard says sadly．"Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying，but we never give them chance．"If we could put across the message to the forestry industry，we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future．

29．The underlined sentence"the opposite is true"in Paragraph 2probably means that treesC．
A．compete for survival
B．protect their own wealth
C．depend on each other
D．provide support for dying trees
30．"Mother trees"are extremely important because theyB．
A．look the largest in size in the forest
B．pass on nutrition to young trees
C．seem more likely to be cut down by humans
D．know more about the complex"tree societies"
31．The underlined word"it"in the last paragraph refers toA．
A．how"tree societies"work
B．how trees grow old
C．how forestry industry develops
D．how young trees survive
32．What would be the best title for the passage？C
A．Old Trees Communicate Like Humans
B．Young Trees Are In Need Of Protection
C．Trees Are More Awesome Than You Think
D．Trees Contribute To Our Society．

11．The Occupy protests（抗议） in Hong Kong are approaching an end．Traffic on Mong Kok's Argyle Street resumed in the late afternoon after the clearance of the barriers and tents by protesters，who remained largely calm，only resisting the clearance at several points．
Some 3，000police officers were deployed（部署） in the operation，a much higher number than were used to assist in the clearance of a protest site in Admiralty District on November 18．
The operation in Mong Kok comes a week after the partial clearance of another protest site next to the local government headquarters in Admiralty，bringing an end to the months-long protest movement．
Some 3，000police officers also stood guard at the former protest site in Admiralty on Tuesday．
Hong Kong Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying expressed on Tuesday his hope that business could resume for shops in the area．He also restated that the protest was an unlawful gathering，and called for the protesters to respect and obey the law．
"The common call of Hong Kong people has finally been answered．Now the protest is coming to an end which is necessary and unavoidable．The public has suffered enough，"Leticia Lee See-yin told the Global Times．
"Many people are living in Mong Kok or operating their businesses in the area．They are all angry at the protest for affecting their business．Two shop owners even shut down their stores because they can no longer afford losses caused by the protest，"said Lee．
It is believed that the successful clearance of the Mong Kok site has proven that the protests are decreasing as they approach an end．
"The authorities met with much less resistance compared to a month ago when protesters reacted violently when police tried to remove barriers in the same area in Mong Kok．Now the public has expressed a stronger desire than ever for the protest to end，"Tang Ka-piu，a lawmaker，told the Global Times．

15．Here is an astonishing and significant fact：Mental work alone can't make us tire．It sounds absurd．But a years ago，scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue （疲劳）．To the amazement of these scientists，they discovered that blood passing through the brain，when it is active，shows no fatigue at all!If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer，we would find it full of fatigue toxins（毒素） and fatigue products．But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein，it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day．
So far as the brain is concerned，it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning．The brain is totally tireless．So what makes us tired？
Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional（情绪的） attitudes．One of England's most outstanding scientists，J．A．Hadfield，says，"The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin．In fact，fatigue of purely physical origin is rare．"Dr．Brill，a famous American scientist，goes even further．He declares，"One hundred percent of the fatigue of sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems．"
What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired？Joy？Satisfaction？No!A feeling of being bored，anger，anxiety，tenseness，worry，a feeling of not being appreciated-those are the emotions that tire sitting workers．Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue．We get tired because our emotions produce nervousness in the body．

64．What surprised the scientists a few years ago？C．
A．Fatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborer's blood．
B．Albert Einstein didn't feel worn after a day's work．
C．The brain could work for many hours without fatigue．
D．A mental worker's blood was filled with fatigue toxins．
65．According to the author，which of the following can make sitting workers tired？B．
A．Challenging mental work．
B．Unpleasant emotions．
C．Endless tasks．
D．Physical labor．
66．What's the author's attitude towards the scientists'idea？A．
A．He agrees with them． B．He doubts them．
C．He argues against them． D．He hesitates to accept them．
67．We can infer from the passage that in order to stay energetic，sitting workers need toB．
A．have some good food．
