    　　Indeed, chemistry(化学反应)isn't just something you hear or read about. Though we can't see it, it exists everywhere; what's more, you practice chemistry every day.

    　　You practice chemistry in the kitchen when you cook. You practice chemistry when you clean your house, wash your car, or paint a fence. You practice chemistry in the bathroom when you bathe and use cosmetics(化妆品). You practice chemistry when you take medicine or treat an injury. Indeed, some remarkable chemical changes happen while you eat or breathe and even while you sleep. Your body is the most miraculous(不可思议的)of all the chemical factories on Earth. It takes the food you eat and turns it into muscle and blood and skin and bones and brains and a numberless of other miraculous things. Your body takes oxygen from the air and combines it with part of the food you eat to provide you with energy for every activity you need. Chemistry is so important that can't go without it even a minute. Chemistry is so close with your life that we should pay more attention to it in our daily life.

    (1)Which of the following is NOT true?

    [　　]

    A．You don't practice chemistry when you sleep.

    B．You practice chemistry when you bathe and use cosmetics.

    C．You practice chemistry when you take medicine.

    D．We can't go without chemistry for a minute.

    (2)We car draw a conclusion according to the text ________.

    [　　]

    A．Chemistry can't exists everywhere

    B．Scientists don't know all the chemical changes that happen in man's body

    C．Oxygen combines it with your muscle and gives you energies

    D．Oxygen is change into blood

    (3)The main idea of the passage is ________.

    [　　]

    A．everyone is a chemist

    B．your body is the most miraculous of all the chemical factories on Earth

    C．chemistry is close with your life

    D．chemistry is practiced easily

    (4)According to the passage, we can conclude that ________.

    [　　]

    A．our body is a result of chemistry

    B．many chemistry could not be seen

    C．oxygen is very important in our body's chemistry

    D．all of the above

    答案：A;B;C;D
    解析：

    　　(1)见第二段第四句，人睡觉也经历化学反应。

    　　(2)因为人的身体是不可思议的化工厂，可说科学家并非全知道它。

    　　(3)见本文最后一句。

    　　(4)见第一段第二句与第二段倒数第三句。

    　　Plants can’t communicate by moving or making sounds,as most animals do．Instead,plants produce volatile compounds,chernicals that easily chasse trom a liquid to a gas．A flower’s sweet smell,for example,comes from volatile compounas that the plant produces to attract insects such as bugs and bees．

    　　Plants can also detect volatile compounds produced by other plants,A tree under attack by hungre insects ,for instance, may give off volatile compounds that let other trees know about the attack,In response,the other trees may send off chemicals to keep the bugs away- or even chemicals that attract the bugs'natural enemies．

    　　Now scientists have created a quick way to understand what plants are saying：a chemical sensor(传感器)called an electronise nose,The “e-nose” can tell compounds that crop plants make when they’re attacked．Seientists say the e-nose could help quickly detest whether plants are being eaten by insects,But today the only way to detect such insects is to visually inspect individual plants this is a challenging task for managers of greenhouses,enclosed gardens that can house thousands of plants．

    　　The research team worked with an e-nose that recognizes volatile compounds．Inside the device,13 sensors chemically react with volatile compounds,Based on these interactions ,the e-nose gives off electronie signals that the scentists analyze using computer software．

    　　To test the nose,the team presented it with healthy leaves from cueumber,pepper and tomato plants, all common greenhouse crops．Then the scientists colleced samples of air around damaged leaves from each type of crop．These plants had been chaged by insects, or by scientists who made holes in the leaves with a hole punch(打孔器)．

    　　The e-nose,it turns out,could identify healthy cucumber,pepper and tomato plants based on the volatile compounds they produce,It could also identify tomato leaves that had been damaged．But even more impressive,the device could tell which type of damage－by insects or with a hole punch – had been done to the tomato leaves．

    　　With some fine tuning,a device like the e-nose could one day be used in greehouses to quickly spot harmful bugs,the researchers say,A device like this could also be used to identify fruits thet are perfectly ripe and ready to pick and eat,says Natalia Dudareve,a biochemist at Purdue University in West lafayette,Ind,who studies smells of flowers and plants．Hopefully,scientists believe,the device could bring large benefits to greenhouse managers in the near future．
