Some plants can produce bad smell to protect themselves. Also some plants have thorns(刺) as roses. The leaves of some plants can change colour. Some plants can eat insects！
Lots of animals try to eat plants. But some plants have their ways of fighting back. For example, thistles(奶蓟草), roses, and many other plants are covered with sharp thorns.When a big animal tries to bite them, it hurts!
It can be quite cold in late winter―too cold for most flowers to grow. But some plants can make their own heat
Take a skunk cabbage(臭菘).That's the name of a plant that blooms(开花)earlier than most other North American flowers. As the flower bud grows, it sometimes makes enough heat to melt(融化)its way through snow and even ice!
The heat also helps the flower give off a smell like meat which has gone bad. And this attracts many insects that have come out early. The flies go inside the flower for food. Ha-ha, it's a trick! There's no food. But while a fly is in there, it gets covered with pollen(花粉).Then it may spread this pollen to the next skunk cabbage. Fooled you twice, little fly!
When an antelope(羚羊)or another large animal eats the leaves of an African acacia(金合欢)tree, the tree may call out a warning.
How? It may talk with gas! First the tree sends some chemicals into its leaves to make them taste bad. But it also may send a special gas out through its leaves. As the gas drifts to other acacia trees, it "tells" those trees, "Look out, hungry animals are coming !" Then the other trees start sending the chemicals into their leaves. Soon, the antelope finds the first tree's leaves too terrible to eat. And when it moves to the next tree, and the next, and the next, it finds that their leaves taste too bad. The antelope may have to walk more than 50 yards away to find a tree it can eat!

科目：初中英语 来源：江苏省苏州市毕业暨升学考试英语模拟试卷（含答案） 题型：阅读单选
Margeaux Wolberg was sitting with the other 12-year-olds in her class when one of the girls turned to her and asked, "Is your mom dead?"
She never came to school like the other mothers to volunteer in the library or help the teachers. It was always Margeaux's dad who did that.
Margeaux reached for her computer, typed a few words into Google and showed her classmate a list of information with her mother's name and job titles, from CEO at Salesforce.com to her present role as vice-president of technology business operations at PayPal. "See, my mom's not dead," she said. "My mom's famous."
Kirsten Wolberg, 45, tells this story with pride. She is not trapped by an uneasy feeling these days when she has to miss a school play. Instead she is glad that her two daughters are growing up with such a strong role model: a woman in a high-powered job in Silicon Valley.
Long before neither of her kids was born, Wolberg and her future husband Michael had a talk about how they would divide household and childcare duties. "I said, 'Listen, one of the things that's really important to me is to have a parent at home full time, '" she remembers. "'And it can't be me.'"
Michael Wolberg, 43, worked for years for a medicine company. But when Margeaux was born, he offered to give up his job and became a stay-at-home dad. And he has never felt sorry for himself. Spending 12 hours a day alone with a child suits his personality better than an office, he says, and much better than it would ever suit his wife.
"She's spent many, many years trying to get to the place where she is and even further," he says, "and this lifestyle of cleaning the floor and changing diapers(尿片)and all kinds of other things are not for her."
1.From the first three paragraphs we know that Margeaux felt .
A. sorry for her mother B. proud of her mother

2.According to the passage, Kirsten .
A. finds it hard to get her kids' understanding B. is as successful in her career as her husband

A. He was tired of his job.
B. He was forced to leave the job.
C. He is more suitable by nature to stay at home.
D. He and his wife reached an agreement after the kids' birth.
4.From the passage we can learn that .
A. Kirsten can achieve greater success in her career
B. Kirsten is neither a good wife nor a qualified mother
C. Michael loves his kids better than his wife does
D. Michael regrets making the decision to stay at home
1.B 2.D 3.C 4.A 【解析】本文介绍了Margeaux的妈妈Kirsten是一名硅谷的高层工作女性，在Salesforce.com 担任技术运营的副总裁，而Margeaux的爸爸Michael选择做全职爸爸。她的爸爸认为自己的性格更适合做全职爸爸，而她的妈妈不适合在家里。 1.B 推理判断题。根据第三段的her mother's name and j...查看答案和解析>>
