    阅读下面短文，从所给四个选项中，选出最佳答案。

    　Can trees talk? Yes——but not in words． Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate (互通信息) with each other． Not long ago, resear- chers learned some surprising things． First a willow tree(柳树)attacked in the woods by caterpillars(毛毛虫)changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so terrible that the caterpillars got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them． Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special vapour — a signal causing its neighbours to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty．

    　　　Communication, of course, doesn't need to be always in words． We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands． We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements． Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar(花蜜)for honey． So why shouldn't trees have ways of sending messages?

    1． When attacked, a willow tree will protect itself by________．

    [　　]

    A． changing its leaves’chemistry

    B． changing its leaves’colour

    C． talking to caterpillars

    D． sending a special vapour

    2． From the passage we know that catrpillars________．

    [　　]

    A． like willow trees

    B． enjoy eating fallen leaves

    C． feed on willow tree leaves

    D． could communicate with willow trees

    3． Caterpillars will stop eating willow tree leaves which________．

    [　　]

    A． have a chemical change and become tasteless

    B． have a pleasant taste

    C． are being attacked

    D． are communicating

    4． According to the passage, how do willow trees communicate with each other?

    [　　]

    A． They talk in words．

    B． They send out a special vapour．

    C． They wave their leaves．

    D． They make special sounds．

    5． According to the passage, bees communicate with each other by______．

    [　　]

    A． talking

    B． making unusual sounds

    C． singing songs

    D． fly in certain patterns

    As Christmas is coming, there are presents to be sent, and rooms to be cleaned. Parents are 1 with difficult jobs of hiding presents from 2 young children. If the gifts are large, this is sometimes a real 3 . On Christmas Eve, young children find the 4 almost unbearable. They are torn between the wish to 5 up late so that they Mil not miss the fun. The wish for gifts usually proves stronger. But though children go to bed early, they often lie 6 in bed for a long time, hoping to get a short 7 at Father Christmas.

    　　Last Christmas, my wife and I 8 managed to hide a few large presents in the store room I 9 the moment when my son, Jimmy, would ask me where the new bike had come from, but 10 he did not see it.

    　　On Christmas Eve, it took the children hours to go to deep. It must have been nearly 11 when my wife and I went quietly into their room and began 12 stockings. Then I 13 in the bike for Jimmy and left it beside the Christmas tree. We know we would not get much 14 that night, for the children were sure to get up early. At about five o'clock the next morning, we were 15 by loud sounds coming from the children's room--they shouted excitedly! 16 I had time to get out of bed, Jimmy came 17 into our bedroom on his new bike and his sister, Mary, 18 close behind, pushing her new baby carriage. Even the baby arrived, he moved on the 19 and knees into the room dragging a large balloon behind him. Suddenly it burst. That woke us up 20 . The day had really begun with a bang.
