But scientists 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。 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. The fluid, produced to attract pollinating (授粉) insects, was on average 20 percent higher in flowers exposed to the buzz pared to those left in silence or exposed to higher pitched sounds. Professor Lilach Hadany, who led the study, said: Our results document for the first time that plants can rapidly respond to pollinator sounds in an ecologically relevant way.s ability to respond to pollinators may be weakened in city environments or beside a busy road. While plants require water, sunlight and the right temperature to grow, it is widely believed they do not have senses in the way animals do. ability to hear has implications well beyond pollination—plants could potentially hear and respond to herbivores, other animals, the elements, and possibly other plants, Prof Hadany added.s voices were at the right frequency for the plants to hear.（1）What39。 response to bees39。Longer bloom.B.Brighter color.D.On a square.B.In the woods.D.Prince Charles proves kind of stupid.B.Plants respond to sounds slowly and ecologically.D.Flowers can hear.B.Plants can39。D.s voices improve plants39。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。故選B。根據(jù)第三段中的“However, Prof Hadany said a plant39。從而推斷可知，在叢林里的植物生長(zhǎng)得更好。 （3）考查推理判斷。從而推斷可知，園丁經(jīng)常與植物交談，生長(zhǎng)得更好。 （4）考查主旨大意。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(zhǎng)。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇科普類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。 This question was raised after a group of penguins were saved from an icy gully (峽谷) in Antarctica.

Of that, more than billion tons have bee waste.

In 2015, Jenna Jam beck a University of Georgia engineering professor, caught everyone39。 Meanwhile, ocean plastic is estimated to kill millions of marine(海洋的）animals every year. Nearly 700 species, including endangered ones, are known to have been affected by it. Some are harmed visibly, stuck by abandoned things made of plastic. Many more are probably harmed invisibly.
