When a leafy plant is under attack，it doesn't sit quietly．Back in 1983，two scientists，Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin，reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get．These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm．What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds，VOCs for short．
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked．It's a plant's way of crying out．But is anyone listening？Apparently．Because we can watch the neighbours react． Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away．But others do double duty．They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers．Once they arrive， the tables are turned．The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch．
In study after study，it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors．The damage is usually more serious on the first plant，but the neighbors，relatively speaking，stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do．
Does this mean that plants talk to each other？Scientists don't know．Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches，and so，in effect，was talking to
3
itself．Perhaps the neighbors just happened to\．So information was exchanged，but it wasn't a true，intentional back and forth．
Charles Darwin，over 150 years ago，imagined a world far busier，noisier and more intimate（亲密的） than the world we can see and hear．Our senses are weak．There's a whole lot going on．
24. What does a plant do when it is under attack？ ______ A. It makes noises．B. It gets help from other plants． C. It stands quietly D. It sends out certain chemicals．
25.What does the author mean by\？ ______ A. The attackers get attacked． B. The insects gather under the table． C. The plants get ready to fight back． D. The perfumes attract natural enemies． 26. Scientists find from their studies that plants can ______ ．
A. predict natural disasters B. protect themselves against insects C. talk to one another intentionally D. help their neighbors when necessary 27. what can we infer from the last paragraph？ ______
A. The word is changing faster than ever． B. People have stronger senses than before． C. The world is more complex than it seems． D. People in Darwin's time were more imaginative．

The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named\discover where the key stress points are．
Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people，leading to them becoming more isolated（隔绝）and inactive． Led by Professor Phil Blythe，the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life． These include custom-made navigation（导航） tools，night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations．Phil Blythe explains：\，particularly those living alone or in the country，driving is important for preserving their independence，giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others．\
\people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills．The result is that people stop driving before they really need to．\
Dr Amy Guo，the leading researcher on the older driver study，explains，\helping us to understand what the key stress points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems．
\，most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly，we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined．We're looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that． \（解决方案） to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel．\
28.What is the purpose of the Drive LAB？______
A．To explore newmeans of transport． B．To design new types of cars．
4
C．To find out older driver′s problems． D．To teach people traffic rules． 29.Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe？______ A．It keeps them independent． B．It helps them save time．

University-the best days of my life!I made lots of friends in my student dorm，went to great parties，joined the debating society…and，well，I did some work too--but I must admit my lecturers were very patient with my tardiness（拖拉）．
It's easy to look back at our university days through rose-tinted spectacles but the truth is that when we first arrived on campus，most of us were out of our comfort zone．

Kirsty，a student at Exeter University，didn't enjoy her first days in college．She says：\I first got to university I don't think I'd realized that I'd forgotten how to make friends．I'd been with the same
school friends for seven years，and so I was trying to balance social success with academic success while learning how to look after myself at quite a young age．\
Dr Ruth Caleb of the counseling service at Brunel University in London has some tips that should make life easier for students before they set off for university．She says：\that I think it would be very helpful for students to have put in place are an ability to do the practical things of life--to do the washing，to do the cleaning and so on-being able to cook．Budgeting is extremely important in university life．\：\how to spend time on your own comfortably．\
I graduated and learnt how to take care of myself the hard way．I hope that new students these days remember to acquire some life skills before they make the big jump．
