And once we know what it is，we can try to do it ourselves.How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have.

35、 If you follow the skills，theyll help you put people at their ease，and make friends with them quickly.First of all，good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone，no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says，“At business lunches，I always ask people what they did that

36、morning. Its a common question，but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matterssometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.Second，once good talkers have asked questions，they listen to the answers. This point seems clear，bu

38、ic，you can take it as a fact that hes really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words，but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull，then，its time for you to change the subject.Finally，good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If youre saying go

39、odbye，you may give him a firm handshake and say，“Ive really enjoyed meeting you.” If you want to see that person again，dont keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel，and they may walk away feeling as if theyve known you half their life.76Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way

CPlants that live in the rainforest have adapted in amazing ways to several very difficult conditions. This means that the plant has changed something in its “body” or “h

44、abits” to make it easier to survive in difficult conditions. There are several conditions they have had to adapt to. First，the soil of the forest floor is shallow. Also，the soil of the rainforest is not very rich，or easy to grow in. Next is the problem of very heavy rain which continues over a large

45、 part of the year. Finally，many plants of the rainforest are food for animals that live there.The biggest problem that rainforest plants have to adapt to is the lack of sunlight in the rainforests lower levels. Plants have adapted to this problem in several ways. Many plants have very large leaves.

46、The large leaf is helpful because it has a bigger surface area. The bigger surface area a leaf has，the more sunlight it can absorb. The canopy trees adapt by growing to be 100 feet tall so that their leaves can grab all available sunlight. Other plants called lianas (climbing woody vines) have adapt

47、ed by rooting themselves in the soil of the forest floor and growing up the trees until they reach the canopy layer. Still other plants，such as epiphytes，have adapted by growing directly on the trees trunks and branches in the canopy and understory layers of the rainforest.An adaptation to the large

48、 amounts of rainfall that many rainforest plants have is called “drip tips”Their leaves are tapered (逐渐变细) to a sharp point at the end. This allows water to run off the leaf quickly. There are many other adaptations that rainforest plants have made to their environment. These will be discussed in de

50、 the environment in the rainforest?AThey grow under big leaves for protection.BThey rely on other plants to reach the canopy layer.CThey change their leaf structure constantly.DThey grow on other plants branches.83The underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to _.Athe takein of sunlight

51、Bthe large amounts of rainfallCthe leaves having a sharp point at the endDwaters running off the leaves quickly84What can be inferred about rainforest plants?AThey have to face dangers not only from animals but also from each other.BToo little sunlight and too much water are the biggest problems the

52、y face.CDifferent kinds of plants have different ways to absorb sunlight.DAll of their adaptations have been investigated in detail.85What would be the best title of the passage?AHow do Plants Adapt to the Rainforests?BWhy do Plants Change Themselves?CWhat Kind of Plants Is the Most Adaptable?DWhat
