专题十五推理判断题AFor the first time,researchers have discovered that some plants can kill insects in order to get additional nutrients.New research shows that they catch and kill small insects with their own sticky hairs near the roots and then absorb nutrients through their roots when the insects are killed and fall to the ground.Professor Mark Chase,of Kew and Queen Mary,University of London,said,“The cultivated(培植的) tomatoes and potatoes still have the hairs.Tomatoes in particular are covered with these sticky hairs.They do trap small insects on a regular basis.They do kill insects.”The number of these carnivorous plants is thought to have came up to 50 percent and many of them have until now been wrongly regarded as among the most harmless plants.Among them are species of petunia(矮牵牛),some special tobacco plants and cabbages,some varieties of potatoes and tomatoes,etc.Researchers at Royal Botanical Gardens,Kew,which carried out the study,now believe there are hundreds more killer plants than previously realized.It is thought that the technique was developed in the wild to get necessary nutrients in poor quality soiland even various plants grown in your vegetable garden still have the ability.The researchers,publishing their finding in the Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society,said,“We may be surrounded by many more murderous plants than we think.”“We are accustomed to thinking of plants as being immobile and harmless,and there is something deeply frightening about the thought of meat-eating plants,”they added.1.Tomatoes and potatoes kill insects to .A.get more sticky

wish;we can discipline ourselves to change it all.Any day we wish;we can open the book that will open our mind to new knowledge.Any day we wish;we can start a new activity.Any day we wish;we can start the process of life change.We can do it immediately,or next week,or next month,or next year.We can also do nothing.We can pretend rather than perform.And if the idea of having to change ourselves makes us uncomfortable,we can remain as we are.We can choose rest over labor,entertainment over education,delusion(幻想) over truth,and doubt over confidence.But while we complain about the effect,we continue to nourish(助长) the cause.As Shakespeare uniquely observed,“The fault is not in the stars,but in ourselves.”We created our circumstances by our past choices.We have both the ability and the responsibility to make better choices beginning today.Those who are in search of the good life do not need more answers or more time to think things over to reach better conclusions.They need the truth.They need the whole truth.And they need nothing but the truth.We cannot allow our errors in judgment,repeated every day,to lead us down the wrong path.We must keep coming back to those basics that make the biggest difference in how our life works out.And then we must make the very choices that will bring life,happiness and joy into our daily lives.And if I may be so bold to offer my last

experts say.“Hopefully,the award means more people will read Chinese literature and more works will get translated,” says Michel Hockx,professor of the Languages and Cultures of China and Inner Asia from University of London.“Many very good Chinese writers have been accepted globally for a long time already.Mo Yan is probably the most translated Chinese writer alive,with at least five of his novels made available in English over the past 20 years.”Jonathan Ruppin,web editor of bookseller Foyles,says Mos win coincides with growing interest in Chinese literature and recognizes the talents of a distinctive and visionary(富于幻想的)writer.“We are very excited by the fact that English translations of more of his books should now become available,” Ruppin says.He made the comment after Mo became the first Chinese citizen to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in its century-long history.As East-West cultural exchange has been booming,Chinese literature has been attracting growing attention in recent years.Hockx explains,“Its mainly because there are many more opportunities for Chinese writers to visit other countries,to publish their works outside China and to interact with readers abroad.At the same time,more and more people globally are learning Chinese and taking an interest in the Chinese language and culture.”University of Oxford lecturer in modern Chinese literature Margaret Hillenbrand says,“The obvious reason for the growing global presence of Chinese literature is the growing global presence of China itself.People have come to realize that there is a serious knowledge deficit (缺少)between China and its international counterpartsin particular,China knows incomparably(无比地)more about Europe and America than the other way roundand reading Chinese
