   Christian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java. Many people on the island had a disease called beri-beri. He was going there to try and find a cure.
   At first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ (细菌) caused beri-beri. He raised some chickens. He didn’t eat them, but made experiments on them. The local people were quite surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate — refined white rice (精炼米). When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery — that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (维生素). The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person’s food.
   Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins from the food they eat. If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills.
   35. The underlined word “cure” in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.
   1. a medical treatment B. a kind of vitamin

C. a kind of germ D. a kind of rice

36. Christian Eijkman went to the island of Java to ______.

A. spend his holiday

B. find ways to grow better crops

C. do some research about the island

D. help the Javanese with their illness

37. Why did Christian Eijkman raise some chickens?

1. To eat them.

B. To carry out his experiments.

C. To give the Javanese a surprise.

D. To make money by selling them.

38. If a person doesn’t get enough vitamins in his diet, he’d better ______.

1. eat more rice B. eat more meat
   C. eat some chicken D. eat vitamin pills
   C
   There is an endless supply of stories about sleepwalkers(梦游者). People have been said to climb on roofs, solve mathematical problems, write music, walk through windows, and do murder in their sleep.
   In Revere, Massachusetts, a hundred policemen searched for a lost boy who left his home in his sleep and woke up five hours later on a strange sofa in a strange living room, with no idea how he had got there.
   At the University of Lowa, a student was reported to have the habit of getting up in the middle of the night and walking three-quarters of a mile to the Lowa River. He would take a swim and then go back to his room to bed.
   An American expert on sleep claims(声称) that he has never seen a sleepwalker. He is said to know more about sleep than any other living man, and during the last thirty-five years he has lost a lot of sleep watching people sleep. He says, “Of course, I know that there are sleepwalkers because I have read about them in the newspapers. But none of my sleepers ever walked, and if I were to advertise for sleepwalkers for an experiment, I doubt whether I would get many takers(应征者).”
   Sleepwalking, however, is a scientific reality. It is one of those strange things that sometimes look quite fantastic(奇特的). Doctors say that sleepwalking is much more common than is generally supposed. Many sleepwalkers do not try to find help and their sleepwalking is never recorded.
   39. Generally speaking, sleepwalkers are people who __________.
   A. do fantastic things during their sleep             B. walk through windows
   C. climb on roofs       D. walk in a half-awake state
   40. It was reported that a boy ________.
   A. was found on a strange sofa, telling how he had got there
   B. lost his way five hours after he left home
   C. slept in his own room but woke up in a strange room
   D. was searched for by policemen when he lost his way
   41. There was a college student who got into the habit of _______.
   A. walking three-quarters of a mile every day
   B. getting up in the middle of the night and walking down to the river
   C. swimming in the Lowa River before going to bed
   D. walking about before he went to bed
   42. Why do people think sleepwalking is nothing but a fantastic thing which doesn’t have any explanation?
   A. It is so common that it needn’t be recorded.
   B. Scientists take no interest in it.
   C. No records about it have been made.
   D. Most sleepwalkers do not seek help for their problem.
   D
   When you watch TV programs about wild animals, it is surprising to see how an antelope can escape a lion’s attack. In the wilderness, everyone has a stunt(绝招). Even plants have their own ways of fighting off enemies.
   Over millions of years of evolution(进化), plants have developed a unique defence system(防卫系统). Chemicals are widely used for survival. By making their leaves, flowers, roots and fruits poisonous (有毒的)to enemies, plants can fight back.
   One such plant is the Golden Wattle tree, British scientist David Caneron has found when an animal eats the tree’s leaves, the amount(数量)of poison increase in the other leaves. “It’s like the injured leaves telephoning the others telling them to fight together against the enemy,” he said.
   The tree also sends defence messages to neighboring plants by giving out a special smell. Golden Wattle trees in the nearby 45 meters will get the message and produce more poison within 10 minutes. Now, if an enemy eats too many of the trees’ leaves, it will die.
   Every species of plant or tree is good at producing a special set of chemicals. A herbivore that can safely eat the leaves of one tree may be poisoned by its neighbor.
   In this way, plants have developed not only their own defence system, but also shared with others. This makes it impossible for a single animal to destroy even a small area of forest.
   43. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
   1. Plants Fight Back With Poisons

B. Plants Can Kill Animals

C. Animals and Plants.

D. Lions and Antelopes

44. According to the study, if one Golden Wattle tree is attacked by animals, it can ________.

A. tell other trees to protect it

B. produce more poison within 10 minutes

C. sent defence messages to the neighboring plants

D. kill the animals with its leaves

45. In this passage the underlined word “herbivore” probably means animals which .

A. live on both animals and plants

B. feed on smaller animals

C. live on trees

D. feed on plants or grass.
