【题目】阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Paper is a cheap and accessible medium that can produce beautiful results. To most people, making a paper plane could be one of the simplest things to do. It’s the simplest and easiest form of paper art. And paper art can be dated back to Japan, where it originated (起源于) over a thousand years ago. However, there’s a special minority who takes paper art to the next level, magically turning the plain white or colored paper into some of the most amazing artworks. Check out the following artists and their works!
The Danish artist Peter Callesen is famous for his talent in combining the minimalism (极简单) of a white sheet of paper with the complexity of carefully cut and folded paper and uses the two to build out some pleasing works.
The British artist Su Blackwell often goes to secondhand bookstores — to look for materials with which she can carve out delicate sculptures. The models look as if they “grow” naturally from the pages of the books. The artist finds inspiration from the book title or a paragraph or picture inside and then spends months carefully making each one into an eye-catching paper model. Her old book sculptures sell for up to£5,000 each.
By carefully folding simple pieces of paper, German artist Simon Schubert creates amazing masterpieces. He turns paper into architectural masterpieces by folding a simple piece of paper to shape the creases (摺缝), then unfolding it to show the fascinating artwork.
Another master of paper-folding is Jen Stark. Her artwork is often in the form of colorful caves and land maps. Using her imagination and a special knife, she is a modern day magician who turns humble materials like construction paper and glue into fantastic, complicated sculptures that puzzle the eyes. Her work draws inspiration from nature.

A. is about plane-folding B. is richest in Japan

【题目】The truth that trees are vital to our life is not a secret. They provide us with food, wood and most 【1】 (important), oxygen. Now there is one more thing we can add to this list—blocking out harmful bacteria from water.
The discovery 【2】 (make) by a team 【3】 (consist) of scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and high school students who were seeking a natural water filter—one that would help communities in developing countries that do not have 【4】 (accessible) to modern water filter systems.
The 【5】 (research), led by Professor Rohit Karnik, decided to turn to trees for help because they could allow liquid to flow through, while blocking out air bubbles.
They began by cutting 1.5-inch-wide sections of tree bark from the branches of a white pine tree. The people related then tested the wood’s filtering ability by pouring water containing red dye particles of different sizes through. To their amazement, they found that it was effective in trapping all the articles. 【6】 (encourage), the team conducted another experiment, this time with water that contained bacteria. Sure enough, the sapwood held back 99% of the bacteria, allowing only 1% to flow through.
