24、 Adults understand what it feels like to be flooded with objects. Why do we often believe that more is better when it comes to kids and their things? The good news is that I can help my own kids learn how to live more with less earlier than I did.
I found the pre—holidays a good time to encourage young children to donate less—used things, and it worked. Because of our efforts, our daughter Georgia did decide to donate a large bag of toys to a little girl whose mother was unable to pay for her holiday due to illness. She chose to sell a few larger objects that were less often used when we promised to put the money into her school fund (基金)——our kindergarten daughter is serious about becoming a doctor.
For weeks, I've been thinking of bigger, deeper questions: How do we make it a habit for them? And how do we train ourselves to help them live with need, and use less?Yesterday, I sat with my son, Shepherd, determined to test my own theory on this. I decided to play with him with only one toy for as long as it would keep his interest. I expected that one toy would keep his attention for about five minutes, ten minutes, at most. I chose a red rubber ball——the simplest and most common toy. We passed it, he tried to put it in his mouth, and he tried bouncing it, rolling it, sitting on it, throwing it. It was totally, completely enough for him. Before I knew it an hour had passed and it was time to move on to lunch.
We were both lost in the simplicity of playing together. He had my full attention and I had his. My little experiment to find joy in a single object worked for both of us.
【1】What made Georgia agree to sell some of her objects?
A.Giving the money to a sick mother. B.Raising money for a poor girl.
C.Saving up for her holiday. D.Adding the money to her fund.
【2】Why did the author play the ball with Shepherd?
A.To train his attention. B.To try out an idea.
C.To show a parent's love. D.To help him start a hobby.
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.The more kids have, the happier they will be.
B.Kids should sell their things to collect their school fund.
C.Parents can help their kids live with need, using less.
D.One toy can only keep kids' attention for a short time.
【4】What can be the best title for the passage?
A.Live More with Less B.Take It or Leave It
C.A Lesson from Kids D.The Pleasure of Giving
25、Take care of your plants! They may “shout” if you treat them badly.
Plants can make sounds when they are stressed, according to a recent study. “Plants use sound to communicate with animals all the time, so it would be very inconvenient for plants not to use sound at all.” Lilach Hadany, co-author (合著者) of the study, told Science Focus.
With this in mind, the research team started by recording plants’ sounds. They put sweet-pepper and tomato plants in soundproof boxes to shut off the noise in the environment. Several ultrasonic microphones (超声波麦克风) were then put near the plants, which can record between 20 and 250 kilohertz (千赫兹). A human adult’s ear can hear about 16 kilohertz. There were three groups of plants: One group wasn’t watered for five days, another group had some parts cut off and the last group was untouched. The microphones caught sounds from 40 to 80 kilohertz from the first two groups. The sound, which was similar to the noise of popcorn popping grew louder and louder during the five days of water stress. They then began to become weaker and weaker as the plants dried out. A stressed plan produced the popping sound around 30 to 50 times per hour, while the untouched group only produced around once per hour, according to the study.
【1】Plants use ________ to communicate with animals all the time according to the study.
A．sound
B．smell

【4】According to the study, the untouched group of the plants produced the popping sound around ________.
A．40 to 80 times per hour
B．30 to 60 times per hour
C．once per hour
【5】What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Plants can make sounds.
B．How to take care of your plants.
