　　“If you talk to the plants, they will grow faster and the effect is even better if you're a woman．” Researchers at Royal Horticultural Society carried out an experiment to find that the voice of a woman gardener makes plants grow faster．

　　The experiment lasted a month and by the end of the study scientists managed to discover that tomato plants grew up two inches taller when women gardeners talked to them instead of male．

　　Sarah Darwin was the one making the plants registered the best growth．Her voice was the most “inspiring” for plants than those of nine other gardeners when reading a passage from The Origin of Species．The great-great-granddaughter of the famous botanist Charles Darwin found that her plant grew about two inches taller than the plant of the best male gardener．

　　Colin Crosbie, Garden Superintendent at RHS, said that the finding cannot yet be explained．He assumes that women have a greater range of pitch and tone which might have a certain effect on the sound waves that reach the plant．“Sound waves are an environmental effect just like rain or light ,”said Mr Grosbie．

　　The study began in April at RHS Garden Wisley in Survey．Scientists started with open auditions(听力)for the people who were asked to record passages from John Wyndham's The Day of the Triffids, Shakespeare's A Midsummer's Night Dream and Darwin's The Origin of Species．

　　Afterwards researchers selected a number of different voices and played them to 10 tomato plants during a period of a month．Each plant had headphones connected to it．Through the headphones the sound waves could hit the plants．It was discovered that plants that “listened” to female voices on average grew taller by an inch in comparison to plants that heard male voices．

　　Miss Darwin said, “I think it is an honor to have a voice that can make tomatoes grow, and especially fitting because for a number of years I have been studying wild tomatoes from the Galapagos Island at the Natural History Museum in London．”

第二部分．阅读理解（共25小题。第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题1分；满分45分）
第一节阅读下面五篇短文，从每题后所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案。
Most of us lead unhealthy lives; we spend far too much sitting down. If in addition we are careless about our diets, our bodies soon become loose and fatty and our systems slow moving. There are some aspects(方面) of our unhealthy lives that we cannot avoid. I am thinking of such features of modern city life as pollution, noise, rushed meals and stress. But keeping fit is a way to reduce the effects of these evils. The usual suggestion to a person who is looking for a way to keep fit is to take up some sport or other. While it is true that every weekend you will find people playing football and hockey in the local park, they are outnumbered a hundred to one by the people who are simply watching them.
　　For those who do not particularly enjoy competitive sports — and it is especially difficult to do so if you are not good at them — there are such separate activities as cycling, walking, jogging and swimming. What often happens though is that you do them in such a leisurely way, so slowly, that it is doubtful if you are doing yourself much good, except for the fact that you have at least managed to get up out of your armchair.
　　Even after you have found a way for keeping in shape, through sport or gymnastics, you are still only half way to good health, because, according to the experts, you must also master the art of complete mental and physical relaxation(放松). It has to do with deep breathing, emptying your mind of all thoughts, meditation, and so on. Yoga, as practiced in the West, is the most widely known and popular of the systems for achieving the necessary state of relaxation. It seems ironical (讽刺性的), though, that as our lives have improved in a material sense we have found it increasingly necessary to go back to forms of activity — physical effort on the one hand and relaxation on the other — which were the natural way of life of our forefathers.
41. Pollution, noise and stress are examples of _____.
A. the causes of unfitness                                                         B. unavoidable things in town
C. the things we can completely do away with                 D. bad features of modern living
42. We don’t get much out of separate sports because we _____.
A. don’t do them very often                                                   B. don’t do them actively enough
C. find it hard to get out of our armchairs                          D. don’t find them interesting
43. To be healthy we must _____.
A. keep fit and active                                                              B. have a sound mind
C. be active and practise Yoga                                                        D. keep fit and learn to relax
44. Our forefathers were healthy because______.
A. their way of life closely connected with both exercise and relaxation
B. they were careful to get plenty of fresh air
C. they spent most of the time out of doors
D. their environment was not polluted

　　A Chinese lawmaker from the booming eastern coastal province of Jiangsu has called the building of new countryside an issue of human rights in another sense．

　　“The new countryside should be prosperous, civilized and harmonious, and enjoy a comprehensive development, ”Ding Dawei, a deputy to the 10th National People’s Congress(NPC), the Chinese legislature(立法机关)now in an annual full session in Beijing, said on Thursday．

　　According to Ding, also mayor of Nantong City in Jiangsu, the building of new countryside involves many human rights issues, such as farmers’ right to subsistence and development, as well as their rights to exercise democracy in village management．

　　“Just as the central government has stressed, farmers’ will must be fully respected in building new countryside．Local governments can only guide them to do the correct thing, and must not force them to do anything they don’t want to,” said Ding．

　　It might be easier to enrich the villages and farmers than to “help them achieve progress in the spiritual and political areas, ”Ding noted．

　　“I think the most important thing is to truly strengthen the democratic management of village affairs, which will offer a fundamental guarantee for farmers’ rights to education, culture, entertainment, medicare and basic social security, ”he said．

　　China’s 900 million farmers have gained the right to directly elect or oust their village heads since 1988, which gives them a bigger say in running village affairs．However, intervention in village elections by governments at higher levels, corrupt village heads abusing power, and the lack of transparency in village management often undermines rural democracy and even spark off rural unrest．

The building of new countryside involves many human rights issues, such as ________．
[　　]
A．	equal rights

C．	extreme autonomy
D．	the right to subsistence and development

(2)

According to Ding Dawei, the construction of socialist new countryside is ________．
[　　]
A．	to value human rights in a new sense
B．	the requirement of the International Human Right Organization
C．	to give farmers rights to manage the new countryside
D．	to enrich the farmers

(3)

[　　]
A．	One that develops quickly on all aspects．
B．	One in which people get along well with each other．
C．	People can do anything they wish to．
D．	One that is very rich and successful．

　　These days, experiences, like many other things, are becoming increasingly expensive. One has to pay a lot for them, even an ordinary one.

　　Not long ago, I wanted to invite my friend to lunch. What we really reed was a good and quiet place so that we could talk, not a big meal. So I selected one club. I belong to that club, too. What could be nicer? “Let's go to the club. ” I told my friend.

　　When I ordered a day in advance, I was asked whether I would have a 20 yuan or 30 yuan lunch. I said, “30 yuan . ”I didn't realize until I was asked to pay after lunch, that 30 yuan was for each person.

　　There were five people that day, and all of us were surprised by the quality of the 30 yuan meal (for all, we thought). The bill came at last. It was 216.40 yuan (150 for the five of us plus the money for drinks, fruits and air-conditioning), I paid the bill without a word.

　　What could I say? It was not the club's fault. It was my own ignorance(无知)that made me pay the largest bill in my life. On the whole, it was not so bad, we had a good lunch at a quiet place. Besides, this experience will help in other years.

　　To support my idea, I have developed my own calculation 30 yuan for the lunch and 186.40 for the experience. The experience has made me ten times wiser.

1．Now many things are becoming ________ .

[　　]

A．less experiential

B．are not so experiential

C．as expensive as before

D．more expensive

2．What we really wanted to have was ________.

[　　]

A．a good meal

B．a good and quiet place to talk

C．a club

D．an experience

3．I thought that I had ordered a meld that cast ________.

[　　]

A．me 20 yuan

B．me 30 yuan

C．us 20 yuan each

D．us 30 yuan each

4．What do you think makes me pay the largest bill in my life?

[　　]

A．My fault.

B．My mistake.

C．The club's trick.

D．The club's mistake.

5．“The experience has made me ten times wiser. ”expresses ________.

[　　]

A．my thanks to the club
