Plants and Mankind
Botany, the study of plants, occupies a peculiar position in the history of human knowledge. We don’t know what our Stone Age ancestors knew about plants, but from what we can observe of preindustrial societies that still exist, a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient. This is logical. Plants are the basis of the food pyramid for all living things, even for other plants. They have always been enormously important to the welfare of people, not only for food, but also for clothing, weapons, tools, dyes, medicines, shelter, and many other purposes. Tribes living today in the jungle of the Amazon recognize hundreds of plants and know many properties of each. To them botany has no name and is probably not even recognized as a special branch of "knowledge" at all.
Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become the farther away we move from direct contact with plants, and the less distinct our knowledge of botany grows. Yet everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few people will fail to recognize a rose, an apple, or an orchid. When our Neolithic ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10,000 years ago, discovered that certain grasses could be harvested and their seeds planted for richer yields the next season, the first great step in a new association of plants and humans was taken. Grains were discovered and from them flowed the marvel of agriculture: cultivated crops. From then on, humans would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather than getting a little here and a little there from many varieties that grew wild and the accumulated knowledge of tens of thousands of years of experience and intimacy with plants in the wild would begin to fade away .

參考答案:
1． A。 該問題句說“對(duì)植物和它們的特征進(jìn)行詳細(xì)地研究一定是從遠(yuǎn)古開始的，這種說法是合理的。” 答案查找的線索詞：a detailed learning(詳細(xì)地研究)和properties(特征) 。從第一段開始查找，不難在第一段的第四行找到含有該線索詞的相關(guān)句。對(duì)照原文和問題句，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)原文的說法與問題句的主句相符，且在原句后有“this is logical”，而this作為代詞回指前句（相關(guān)句），所以答案正確。
2． A。 該問題句說“人們離開了植物不能生存。”，這句話依據(jù)常識(shí)判斷應(yīng)是正確的。但為了安全起見，也可用上述的方法確認(rèn)答案。答案查找的線索詞：survive(生存)或其近義詞。不難在第一段的第五行找到相關(guān)句。對(duì)照原文和問題句，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)原文的說法與問題句的主句相符：原句說“植物是所有生物，甚至是其它植物的的食物金字塔的基礎(chǔ)”，所以答案正確。
3． B。該問題句說“生活在亞馬遜河叢林里的部落給他們的孩子在學(xué)校里教授植物學(xué)。”。答案查找的線索詞：tribes(部落) 和Amazon(亞馬遜河)（地名是典型的答案線索詞） 。不難從第一段的倒數(shù)第四行找到相關(guān)句群。對(duì)照原文和問題句，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)原文的說法與問題句的主句不相符：原句說“他們的詞匯中還沒有‘植物學(xué)’這個(gè)詞，甚至可能不承認(rèn)‘植物學(xué)’是門專門的知識(shí)”，所以答案不正確。
4． B。該問題句說“我們直接與植物的接觸隨著工業(yè)革命的進(jìn)程而加深。”。這句話依據(jù)常識(shí)判斷應(yīng)是不正確的。但為了安全起見，也可用上述的方法確認(rèn)答案。答案查找的線索詞：the process of industrialization(工業(yè)革命的進(jìn)程)（專有名詞是典型的答案線索詞） 。不難在第二段的首句找到含有相關(guān)線索詞（industrialized）的相關(guān)句。對(duì)照原文和問題句，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)原文的說法與問題句的主句不相符：原句說“工業(yè)話的程度越高，我們與植物的直接接觸就越少”，所以答案不正確。
5． B。該問題句說“現(xiàn)在人們大部分的植物知識(shí)通常是從書本上獲得。”。答案查找的線索詞：Botanical knowledge (植物學(xué)知識(shí))。不難在第二段的第三行找到含有相關(guān)句。對(duì)照原文和問題句，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)原文的說法與問題句的主句不相符：原句說 “人們是無意識(shí)地獲取了大量的植物學(xué)知識(shí)。”，所以答案不正確。
6．A。該問題句說“大約在10，000年以前，生活在中東的人最先學(xué)會(huì)了種植農(nóng)作物。”。答案查找的線索詞：10，000 （數(shù)字是典型的答案線索詞）。不難在第二段的第五行找到含有相關(guān)句。對(duì)照原文和問題句，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)原文的說法與問題句的主句相符：原句中雖然并沒有使用learn to grow (學(xué)會(huì)種植) 而是用discover（發(fā)現(xiàn)），但在隨后的一句中說 “從他們開始谷物被發(fā)現(xiàn)了，而且出現(xiàn)了農(nóng)業(yè)的奇跡 --種植農(nóng)業(yè)。”，所以答案正確。
7． B。該問題句說“人們一旦開始耕種就不在需要依靠野生植物來獲取食物。”。這句話依據(jù)常識(shí)判斷應(yīng)是不正確的。但為了安全起見，也可用上述的方法確認(rèn)答案。可以推測這道題的相關(guān)句應(yīng)在第六題的先關(guān)句之后，原文中只是說“他們不斷地從少數(shù)的弄耕作物中獲取食物。”，而少數(shù)的弄耕作物據(jù)推測應(yīng)并不能滿足那時(shí)人們的需要，所以答案不正確。
