12、ssive ceremony consists of the old guard, which forms up in the palace forecourt, going off duty and handing over to the new guard.

18、been knocked down.The Crows Nest was a particularly useful point, because it allowed a tennis writer to keep track of the action on as many as 10 outside courts at a time. At days end, reporters from different nations would share notes on what they had observed all over the grounds.Twenty-seven year

19、s later, the press room has touch screens that allow us to watch live videos from any court, and even go back to watch key moments in key matches long after they have finished.

21、strawberries and cream, the signature treat (招牌菜) at Wimbledon, its time to email your editor using capital letters.The new retractable (可伸缩的) roof was put in place in 2009. Until then, you always had to have a rainy-day story in your notebook because there were no guarantees any matches would be pl

26、come history.CShould I stay or should I go? An LED device (设备) for driverless cars aims to give pedestrians (行人) at a crossing the power to communicate with cars, signaling for them to stop or drive on.Blink, created by researchers at the Royal College of Arts and Imperial College London, turns the

27、awkward dance of eye contact and hand gestures that happens when a car slows down while someone is waiting to cross the road into something driverless cars can understand.Blink combines an organic light display with the Windscreen (挡风玻璃) and windows of a car and uses light signals to show pedestrian

28、s when the car is aware of their presence. If the car detects a pedestrian, a figure lights up.If a pedestrian raises a hand as a stop sign, the figure turns green, directing the pedestrian to cross, and the car is prevented from moving forward. If they place a hand out to the side to signal for the

29、 car to go forward, the figure turns red and the car continues.But George Filip at the University of Nottingham, UK, isnt certain it is a good idea to give pedestrians control over driverless cars. He says cities could end up crowded because pedestrians keep stopping cars.Producers should wait until

30、 the novelty of driverless cars has worn off before creating car-pedestrian communications systems, he says. “We need to learn how people actually communicate with autonomous cars.”The idea is to help people feel more comfortable around driverless cars, says Blink co-creator Raunaq Bose. “It effecti

31、vely gives pedestrians the car-stopping powers of lollipop men and women.”The team hasnt yet tested the device on a driverless car, but Bose says several automotive companies have expressed interest.28.

33、31. What can be learnt from what Bose said? A. Theres a demand for the device. B. The device has an uncertain future.C. The device is perfect for driverless cars. D. Several companies have begun to use the device.D We already know that plants are capable of learning and adapting to their environment

34、, just like any organism. But a new study seems to suggest that plants can do more than just adapt. They can actually make decisions at that.Perhaps we shouldnt be surprised. Plants might be rooted, but their environments can be complex （复杂的）. In fact, researchers discovered that competition and an

35、unsettled environment are what really pushes plants decision-making to their limits.For instance, when competing with competitors for limited sunlight, a plant is faced with having to choose among a number of options. It can attempt to outgrow its neighbors, thus gaining more access to light. It can

36、 also attempt to go into a low-light survival mode, if it doesnt consider an arms race to be worthwhile. The plant might also need to determine which way it should grow to best maximize its resource.“In our study we wanted to learn if plants can choose between these responses and match themselves to

37、 the relative size and density (密度) of their opponents,” said Michal Gruntman.In the experiment, whenever plants were presented with tall competitors, they would go into shade-tolerance mode. On the contrary, when plants were surrounded by small, dense vegetation, they would attempt to grow upright.

38、 But there were also wise decisions built into each of these situations, too. For instance, plants in shade-tolerance mode would make their leaves thinner and wider to capture as much light as possible relative to the level of their competition.“Such an ability to choose between different responses

39、according to their outcome could be particularly important in diverse environments, where plants can grow by chance under neighbors with different size, age or density, and should therefore be able to choose their appropriate strategy,” said Gruntman.All of this basically means that scientists are b

40、eginning to look more closely at how plants work through their decisions. Obviously, plants dont have nervous systems, so more research will be needed to see exactly how these decision-making mechanisms (机能) operate with our plant friends.32. Why do plants need to make decisions? A. They are far dif

41、ferent from other organisms.B. They know how to adapt to their environment.C. The environment where they are suited can change. D. They have the ability of learning about environment.33. What does the underlined phrase “an arms race” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. The attempt to grow. B. The choice to survi

42、ve.C. The way to maximize the resources. D. The competition for more sunlight.34. What influences the size and shape of plant leaves? A. How fierce their competitions are. B. Where the plants grow actually.C. Whether vegetation is dense or not. D. What small plants they are surrounded with.35. What

43、is the best title for the text? A. Plants Can Easily Adapt to the Environment.B. Plants Are Capable of Decision-making.C. Plants Can Work like Other Organisms Actually.D. Plants Compete for Sunlight with Each Other.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Take Food Pictu
