Question

【題目】閱讀短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。

Have you ever wondered how and why a fall leaf changes color? We first have to understand what leaves are and what they do.

Leaves are the world’s food factories. Plants take water from the ground and take CO2 from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and CO2 into glucose(葡萄糖). Glucose is a kind is a kind of sugar. Using it as food, plants get energy and grow. Plants using sunlight to turn water and CO2 into sugar is called photosynthesis(光合作用). ChlorophyII helps photosynthesis. It gives plants their green color.

As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter, and trees “know” to begin getting ready for winter.During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. Trees rest during this time and live on the food they store during the summer. They begin to shut down their food—making factories.As the green chlorophyII disappears from the leaves, we begin to see yellow and orange leaves. These colors have been in the leaves all the time. We just can’t see them in the summer, because they are covered up by the green chlorophyII.

The bright reds and purples in leaves are made mostly in autumn. In some trees, glucose is caught in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turn this glucose into a red color. The brown color of trees is made from waste left in the leaves. It is mixture(混合物) of all these things. It makes the beautiful leaves during autumn.

【1】The underline word “chlorophyII” in the passage means “_________” in Chinese.

A．胡蘿卜素

B．葉綠素

C．氯霉素

【2】When they rest in winter, trees live on the food they store during the _________.

A．summer

B．a(chǎn)utumn

C．winter

【3】Picture_______ shows how food—making factories work according to the passage.

A．

B．

C．

【4】Which of the following is not true according to the passage?

A．Glucose is a kind of sugar and plants use it as food for energy and growing.

B．Leaves turn red because sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turn glucose into a red color.

C．We can’t see yellow or orange leaves in summer because the two colors are not in leaves.

【5】What’s the main meaning of this passage?

A．What’s photosynthesis?

B．How and why leaves change colors?

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】A

【3】C

【4】C

【5】B

【解析】

試題解析：本文主要講述了綠色植物為什么在夏天的葉子是綠色而到了秋冬就變色以及光合作用等自然科學知識。

【1】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)前面的“光合作用”一詞，可推理這是指葉綠素。故選B。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章中第三段的Trees rest during this time and live on the food they store during the summer.�？芍�選A與之相符。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。分析第二段，在第二段中作者詳細地講述了光合作用的過程，結合各個選項的意思，可知選C合理。

【4】細節(jié)理解題。 根據(jù)第三段的最后一句We just can’t see them in the summer, because they are covered up by the green chlorophyII，可知這才是為什么葉子是到了秋冬就變色的原因，故C選項的表述錯誤，選C。

【5】主旨大意題�？v觀全文，可知本文主要講述了綠色植物為什么在夏天的葉子是綠色而到了秋冬就變色的，結合各個選項的意思，可知選B。
