　　I have a good friend and she，together with her father，lives not far from my house.Her dad，16.________ was hard-working and did much for the family，passed away two weeks ago 17.________ his illness got worse.We all felt that she was unfortunate (不幸的)．A few of our good friends got together and we went to a flower shop to buy a basket 18.________ beautiful flowers.And then the flowers 19.________(send) to her house.

　　The rain forest is thick with plants and ringing with the sounds of wild animals.When we think of the rain forest we usually think of abundant life.In fact，rain forests contain the world’s greatest abundance and variety of life.One research station in a Peruvian rain forest counted six hundred species of birds.That’s about as many species of birds as there are in all of North America.And the diversity of the plants is even greater than that of the animals.

　　Since the rain forest is full of green plants，you may think that crops can also grow well there; but when the forest is cleared for farming，the soil changes suddenly and greatly.If the tropical，lowland rain forest (熱帶低地雨林)，like what fills the Amazon basin of South America，is destroyed，the soil will generally become very barren in one year.

　　One reason the rain forest is so poor is that most of the nutrients are stored in the plants themselves.In most forests，dead organic matter (有機物) falls to the ground，providing valuable nutrients for new growth.In cooler or drier weather，the nutrients in the soil become larger in number.But in a rain forest，with its abundance and variety of life，those nutrients are reabsorbed almost as fast as they’re deposited (使沉淀)．Also，the trees in tropical rain forests are often evergreens and so very few leaves actually fall to the ground.

　　When a rain forest is burned to raise crops or cattle，most of the nutrients are destroyed along with the plants.Grass may grow for a year，but as the grass is turned into beef，the few remaining nutrients are used up.

　　Since land in the rain forest is cheap，farmers often clear new fields each year，leaving the old ones to turn into desert.

　　【解題導語】　雨林茂密的綠色植物讓人們覺得那兒的土壤一定非常肥沃，然而，事實卻并非如此。

　　31．What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?

　　A．The rain forest plays an important role in feeding wild animals.

　　B．The weather in the rain forest has many surprising features.

　　C．The growing conditions in the rain forest are rare and favorable.

　　D．There are large numbers and many kinds of plants and animals in the rain forest.

　　解析：選D。段落大意題。第一段主要說明了雨林中野生動植物的數量大，種類繁多。

　　32．The underlined word“barren”can be replaced by“________”．

　　A．damp

　　B．black

　　C．poor

　　D．soft

　　解析：選C。詞義猜測題。根據前文“Since the rain forest is full of green plants，you may think that crops can also grow well there；but when the forest is cleared for farming，the soil changes suddenly and greatly.”可知，“你”可能會覺得莊稼也能在雨林中長勢良好；但是，森林一旦被砍伐，土壤就會發生劇變。再結合第三段“One reason the rain forest is so poor is that...”可知，如果熱帶低地雨林受到破壞，土壤在一年之后就會變得非常貧瘠。因此可知，“barren”意為“貧瘠的”。

　　33．Where are most nutrients kept in a rain forest?

　　A．In the plants.

　　B．In the soil.
