Everywhere in the world, plants and animals live together.Some animals eat plants they live with, Some plants stay alive because many plant-eating animals have natural enemies that eat them.
Rich soil for the roots of plants is produced by worms and other very small animals that live underground.Green plants feed animals and people.
It takes all the plants and animals living together to keep the earth a good place to live in.
Plants and animals trade with each other.They trade for things they both need to stay alive.
Animals breathe and the air gets changed inside their bodies.When they breathe the air out again there' s something called carbon((碳) in it.Animals can' t use this air again.But plants need carbon.The plants trade fresh air for the carbon they need.
Plants make food from carbon and water.They use sunlight for this work, just as a machine uses gas or electricity to keep running.The plants store the food they make inside themselves.
But what do the plants get in return? Many things.Plants make food from the carbon and other things that come from animals' bodies.Insects like bees carry pollen(花粉) from one flower to another and the pollen forms seeds.Birds and other animals eat the fruit in which seeds grow and often drop the seeds where they can grow up into new plants.So animals help the growth of new prants.

在世界的每個(gè)地方,動(dòng)植物都是生活在一起的。有些動(dòng)物以吃植物為生。一些植物得以存活是因?yàn)槭巢輨?dòng)物會(huì)被其他天敵動(dòng)物捕食。植物根部所需的肥沃土壤得益于蠕蟲(chóng)和其他生存于地下的非常微小的動(dòng)物。綠植哺育著動(dòng)物以及人類(lèi)。
動(dòng)植物的共存使得地球成為適宜居住的好地方。動(dòng)植物之間互相給養(yǎng)。他們互相交換所需物品以維持生存。
動(dòng)物呼吸空氣,并在體內(nèi)產(chǎn)生變化。當(dāng)它們呼出氣體時(shí),其中包含一種被稱為“碳”的物質(zhì)。動(dòng)物不能再用它們呼出的氣體。但是,植物需要碳?xì)怏w。植物吸入它們生長(zhǎng)所需要的碳?xì)怏w,呼出新鮮空氣。植物通過(guò)碳和水生成食物。它們利用陽(yáng)光完成這項(xiàng)工作,就如同機(jī)器借助汽油或電力維持運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)。植物將生成的食物儲(chǔ)存于它們的體內(nèi)。但是,植物可以獲得怎樣的回報(bào)呢?很多的回報(bào)。植物從動(dòng)物產(chǎn)生的碳和其他物質(zhì)中生成食物,像蜜蜂這樣的昆蟲(chóng),它們將花粉從一朵花傳到另一朵花,而這個(gè)花粉可以形成種子。鳥(niǎo)類(lèi)和其他動(dòng)物在種子生長(zhǎng)出的地方吃到果實(shí),又將種子帶到可以讓它們生長(zhǎng)的地方。所以說(shuō),動(dòng)物幫助了植物的再生。
2016年3月全國(guó)英語(yǔ)等級(jí)考試二級(jí)答案(短文理解2)
24.B【精析】推斷題。題干意為“下面哪個(gè)選項(xiàng)與第二段中的詞組‘trade wim’意思最為接近?”由第二段最后一句“They trade forthings they both need to stay alive.”可知,他們互相交換所需物品以維持生存。故可以推斷出劃線部分的含義應(yīng)該是互相交換的意思。故B正確。
25.A【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“與第四段中的‘電力’作對(duì)比的是什么?”由第四段第二句話中的“They use sunlight for this work…”可知,它們利用陽(yáng)光完成這項(xiàng)工作,由此可以看出“電力”是用來(lái)和“陽(yáng)光”作對(duì)比的,故A正確。
26.A【精析】歸納題。題干意為“文章的中心思想是什么?”全文基本可以分成兩個(gè)部分。第一部分說(shuō)明一些動(dòng)物靠食草為生,植物為動(dòng)物提供了生存養(yǎng)料。第二部分說(shuō)明植物也可以借助動(dòng)物獲取一定的生存養(yǎng)料。所以兩者是相輔相成的。故A正確。
