entists have discovered evidence which suggests the Royal may actually be right and they could be listening to him. Biologists at Tel Aviv University in Israel have found that flowers can act as a plant39。根據(jù)第四段中的“But the study, published on the openscience website BioRxiv, suggests the efforts of gardeners who talk to their plants may not be in vain.”研究表明,園丁們和他們的植物交談的努力可能不會(huì)白費(fèi)。s ability to respond to pollinators may be weakened in city environments or beside a busy road. ”哈達(dá)尼教授認(rèn)為,植物對(duì)傳粉者做出反應(yīng)的能力可能會(huì)在城市環(huán)境或繁忙道路旁減弱。根據(jù)第二段中的“When the researchers played recordings of flying bees to evening primrose flowers, within three minutes the sugar concentrations in the nectar (花蜜) of its flowers increased.”可知,蜜蜂飛到夜來香花,在三分鐘內(nèi)其花朵花蜜的糖的濃度會(huì)增加,所以花蜜會(huì)更甜。Women39。t grow without sound.Plants can only potentially hear animals.C.C.Beside a highway.C.Sweeter nectar.s evening primrose flowers39。s ears to help them detect the sound of approaching insects. response to bees39。Brighter color.D.In the woods.D.Plants respond to sounds slowly and ecologically.D.B.s voices improve plants39。故選B。從而推斷可知,在叢林里的植物生長得更好。從而推斷可知,園丁經(jīng)常與植物交談,生長得更好。s ears to help them detect the sound of approaching insects.”及全文內(nèi)容可知,文章主要講述人與植物的交流可以促其生長。s good for the planet, too.impact nations, in general, you can see that, if you follow a nationally remended diet, despite the fact that these diets don39。ine nations. said Paul Behrens, an environmental scientist at Leiden University in the Netherlands.free land on Earth is used for agriculture, and according to some estimates, producing food accounts for roughly a fifth of all human173。 However, following dietary guidelines would reduce those impacts, especially in wealthy countries like the US.
