When we see babies or pets, we can't help gently touching them to show our love. And they give us happy feelings back. But a recent study shows that it’s different for plants.
A study, published in The Plant Journal, shows that plants don’t like to be touched. That’s because touching changes their genes(基因) and, even worse, can slow their growth. Professor Jim Whelan in Australia gave an explanation. The lightest touch from a human, animal, insect, or even plants touching each other in the wind, leads to a huge gene change in the plant.
In order to test the theory, the scientists did an experiment on plants. They grew a number of plants to the age of four weeks. Then they touched them with a paintbrush every 12 hours over a 36-hour period. They found that as the result of the touch, the mitochondria(线粒体) in the plants had been partly destroyed. The mitochondria are the “power-house” of the cell(细胞). The mitochondria produce energy for the cells in both animals and plants. If this “power-house” is weakened, the plants will lose a large amount of energy that should have supported their growth.
Whelan further explained, “If the touching is repeated, then plant growth is reduced by 30 percent.” Although the touching does have a strong influence on plants, usually the plants can still be alive. Touching changes the plants, but it’s not always a bad change. Continually touching or moving plants will make them grow shorter than other ones. However, in some ways, this change could be helpful. It may help plants fight threats to their health such as insects and bad weather.
The new research findings have led to a deeper understanding of the plants. And the research might help with the growth of plants.
根据材料内容选出最佳答案。
1.According to the article, what can get in the way of plants’ growth?
A.Love. B.Touch. C.Water. D.Weather.
2.How do the mitochondria support the plants’ growth?
A.By providing energy for cells. B.By changing the plants’ genes.
C.By fighting against the insects. D.By reducing the amount of cells.
3.Why did the scientists do the experiment?
A.To explain why pets love to be touched.
B.To find out why some plants grow more slowly.
C.To test if touching can change the genes of plants.
D.To show that plants’ and animals’ genes are different.
4.What does the underlined word “threats” mean in Chinese?
A.因素 B.改变 C.威胁 D.对手
5.What can we learn from the text?
A.Touching can have a good influence on plants’ growth.
B.We’re not sure how to help plants grow by touching.
C.It’s necessary to avoid touching the plants all the time.
D.The changes of the plants by touching may be not bad.

Lots of people love to keep pets, but they don’t know how to communicate with their pets. Are you one of the pet keepers? If your answer is “yes”, here are some suggestions for you.
1.Talk with your pet.
Although your pet may not exactly understand your words, he can at least pick up on the tone of your words and your body language when you talk to him. For example, if you speak with him in a stern voice, he might pick up on the fact that you are unhappy with his behavior.
2.Use non-verbal(非语言的) communication.
Your non-verbal communication is just as important as verbal communication. Non-verbal communication is often used in training your pet to do a certain activity. For example, if you are sitting on your horse, you would use your legs and hands to command your horse to turn around. When you teach your dog to sit, you would actually combine verbal and non-verbal communication (hand signals) to give him the ‘sit’ command.
3.Avoid punishing your pet.
Punishing your pet is never a good idea. Punishment can make your pet fearful of you and possibly lose trust and respect that he has for you. What’s more, some pets, like cats, do not necessarily make the connection between your punishment and the behavior you are punishing them for.
1.The Chinese meaning of the underlined word “stern” in this passage is probably“________”.
A.和善的 B.严厉的 C.柔和的 D.耐心的
2.You can use your________to command your horse to turn around.
A.legs and hands B.arms and feet C.leg and feet D.arms and hands
3.What can we know from the passage?
A.The writer tells us four suggestions in the passage.
B.The writer doesn’t mention “horse” in the passage.
C.The writer thinks it necessary to punish pets.
D.Your pet cat doesn’t understand why you punish him.
4.In which part of a magazine can we read the passage?
A.Animal World. B.Animal Stories. C.Body Languages. D.Body Parts.
5.The best title of the passage may be “________”.
A.How to Talk with Pets B.How to Take Care of Pets
C.How to Communicate with Pets D.How to Train Dogs and Cats
