There is an old Chinese proverb that states “One generation plants the trees; another gets the shade,” and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters. The relationship between a mother and a daughter is sometimes confusing. The relationship can be similar to friendship. However, the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that distinguish it from a friendship. These characteristics include a hierarchy (等级) of responsibilities and unconditional love, which preclude mothers and daughters from being best friends.

Marina, 27 years old, said, “I love spending time with my mom, but I wouldn’t consider her my best friend. Best friends don’t pay for your wedding. Best friends don’t remind you how they carried you in their body and gave you life! Best friends don’t tell you how wise they are because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you.” This doesn’t mean that the mother and daughter relationship can’t be very close and satisfying. This generation of mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common, which increases the likelihood of shared companionship. Mothers and daughters have always shared the common experience of being homemakers, responsible for maintaining and passing on family values and traditions. Today contemporary mothers and daughters also share the experience of work and technology, which may bring them even closer together.

Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends, but for better or worse, the mother and daughter relationship is permanent, even if for some unfortunate reason they aren’t speaking. Sometimes this is not an equal relationship. Daughters don’t always feel responsible for their mother’s emotional well-being. But mothers never stop being mothers, which includes frequently wanting to protect their daughters and often feeling responsible for their happiness. The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable by any other. Mothers always “trump (胜过)” friends.

1.What does the underlined word “preclude” in paragraph 1 probably mean?

A.differ. B.benefit.

C.prevent. D.change.

2.What can we learn from what Marina said?

A.Best friends will not spend money on her wedding.

B.Best friends will not remind her of important issues in life.

C.Her mother is wiser on account of her age.

D.Her mother is anything but her best friend.

3.Why can a mother and a daughter build a closer relationship?

A.Because they share advanced technology with each other.

B.Because they work together to support the whole family.

C.Because they experience the same values and traditions.

D.Because they have common experience in life and work.

4.What do we know from the text?

A.The mother and daughter relationship can be replaced by a best friend.

B.A mother’s love brings her and her daughter a close friendship.

C.Marina has a troubled relationship with her mother.

D.The mother and daughter relationship goes beyond best friendship.

5.What is the text mainly about?

A.How to build a good mother and daughter relationship.

B.A mother-daughter relationship is irreplaceable.

C.Mothers want to be daughters’ friends.

D.A daughter is a mother’s best friend.

Bamboo is one of the nature’s most surprising plants. Many people call this plant a tree, but it is a kind of grass.

Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1.5 meters in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are more than 1,000 kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains.

Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across. This plant also comes in different colors, from yellow to black to green.

Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for building new buildings. As a matter of fact, the cables(绳索) that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo. The bridge has been in use for more than 1,000 years, and is still holding strong.

In Africa, engineers are teaching poor farmers how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap ways to find water because they have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and no water. It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use. Bamboo pipes and drills(钻) can help to make the poor thirsty fields to be watered.

1.How is bamboo like grass?

A．It is thin and easy to cut.                  B．It grows everywhere.

A．most people call bamboo plant trees

B．a bamboo plant may grow 4.5 meters in three days

D．a bridge held by bamboo cable was built thousands of years ago

4.Why did the engineers teach the poor farmers in Africa to make use of bamboo?

A．Because it is cheap.                      B．Because it is colorful.

C．Because it drills fast.                     D．Because it is used by Asians.

5.Which of the following is NOT true?
