A blow-fly was looking for an ideal place like rotting meat to lay her eggs so that when her little babies were born, they could feed on the meat.
As she turned a corner in the grassland, she smelt something that smells like rotten meat in the air! With a great joy she landed on it and laid her eggs. She was happy that her children would have enough food to eat.
But the fly did not know she had made a great mistake. What she had sat upon was not meat but a flower, which smells badly. It is called a carrion flower. So, when the blow-fly’s eggs hatched and the little maggots（蛆）came out, they had nothing to eat. They died of starvation.
The carrion flower is one of the many flowers which send out dirty smells to attract flies. The Rafflesia stinks like rotting meat, while the tropical Lords and Ladies flower gives out a smell like rotting fish.
They do it for a special reason. These plants cannot move from their place. But it is important for the male cell of one plant to get in touch with the female cell of another plant. Once that is done, the seed of the plant will bloom and give birth to another plant.
The plant uses its stink to attract flies. As soon as the blow-fly sits on the follower, it is captured by the flower with strong hair. When the hair falls, the fly is free to fly- but it takes some pollen（花粉） with it. And goes and sits on another plant. The male cell of one plant meets the female cell of the other. The seed gets new life.
64. Why did the fly land on something smelly?
A. She was too careless before her bearing. B. She liked the particular smell very much
C. She hoped to find some food for her babies. D. She couldn’t find a better place for delivery.
65. The little maggots finally died because_________.
A. they were born too weak B. they lacked food available
C. carrion flower were poisonous D. their mother didn’t take care of them
66. Flowers like carrion flower and Rafflesia naturally smell terrible so that_________.
A. they need insects to spread their pollen B. they succeed in producing more seeds
C. their seeds can be carried to other places D. they can manage to absorb more nutrients
67. What is the best title of the text?
A. Dirty Tricks B. Smelly Plants C. A strange Flower D. Secrets of Nature.

McCoy was looking for a safe place to do drugs when something clearly out of place caught his eye: a luxurious brown leather handbag.
McCoy, 36, could relate all too well. One of his few possessions, the sleeping bag he used in an abandoned house, had recently been stolen. Remembering how angered he’d been by his own loss, he resolved to return the purse to its owner.
He began right away, starting with the address on the bill found in the handbag. After traveling much of the day and finally approaching the address on the bill, he was stopped by a woman, who asked whether she could buy the purse. McCoy refused, saying he was searching for its owner. “But I am the owner,” the woman said. “That’s my purse.”
A month earlier, Kaitlyn Smith, 29, a sales representative for a medical device company, had woken up to find her apartment broken into and her purse stolen. Now she came across a tall, messy-looking man holding it tightly. She could instantly tell he wasn’t in good shape.
At Smith’s urging, McCoy told her his story. He’d been in charge of a landscaping business until 2012, when a car accident left him addicted to drugs.
Smith, amazed this stranger had gone to such great lengths to return her bag, asked whether there was anything she could do to help. “I’m a drug addict,” McCoy warned. “I don’t want to intrude on your life; I’m probably gonna let you down.”
Unafraid, Smith gave him her phone number, saying, “If you want to go to rehab (戒毒所), call me.” She then drove him back to his neighborhood and left, thinking that would be the end of it. Two days later, she got a call.
Smith realized that McCoy was serious about getting better, so she dug into her savings account and bought McCoy a plane ticket to Florida. While there, he would call her to let her know how he was doing. “We were getting to know each other,” Smith says. “His scared, desperate voice turned into a healthy, lively one.” After 28 days at a rehab program at Johns Hopkins Hospital, McCoy is drug-free. He lives at a residential recovery center in Baltimore, and a GoFundMe page set up by Smith has covered his rent, groceries, and incidentals. His life is back on track, all because one crime victim could understand another’s loss.
1.What drove McCoy to look for the owner of the handbag?
A.The urge to find a business partner. B.The resolution to recover his sleeping bag.
C.His own unfortunate experience. D.His anger over the poor living condition.
2.What was McCoy’s initial reaction towards Smith’s intention to help?
A.Enthusiasm. B.Resistance.
C.Hostility. D.Gratitude.
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.McCoy was a victim of an identity theft.
B.Smith offered McCoy a ride home at his request.
C.McCoy looked unhealthy when he bumped into Smith.
D.Smith covered McCoy’s living expense in the recovery centre.
4.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
A.Drug-abuse Can Heal. B.Lost and Found.
C.Mutual Communication Matters. D.Good Deeds Repaid.

When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Dr. Gibbs. He didn’t look like any_____ I’d ever known. Every time I saw him, he wore ______ and a straw hat. I remember him as someone who was a lot ______ than most of the adults in our community.
When Dr. Gibbs wasn’t ______ lives, he was planting trees. His house sat on ten acres, and his life’s goal was to make it a ______.
The good doctor had some ______ theories concerning plant care and growth. He _____watered his new trees, which flew in the face of conventional ______. Once I asked why.
