The millipede(千足虫) Forest life
36________ We enjoy watching television programs about bears, bats or monkeys. We knew a lot about their lives: how they find food or what they do at different times of the year. But what about smaller animals that are more difficult to see or film?
37________ A French scientist, Francois-Xavier, Joly, is studying one of them-the millipede. The importance of leaves
When leaves begin to die in autumn, they turn from green to yellow and fall from the trees. 38_________ Life in the forest needs these nutrients ---- without them, plants could not grow and so there would be no food for other animals. Food on the forest floor
Some living things, like mushrooms, break the leaves into smaller pieces and eat them. In a few months there is nothing left of them. But for mushrooms, not all trees are the same. Mushrooms prefer some types of leaves to others. This means that some leaves take much longer to break down than others, sometimes years. So what happens to these? 39________ More on the menu
The millipede also likes leaves and it eats any type. But when it has finished, it produces waste.
This waste then becomes the food of mushrooms. When mushrooms eat leaves they choose only certain types ----- But when they eat waste, they will eat any kind. 40________
So next time you are walking through a forest, remember that something may be having a meal right under your feet!
A. This is where the millipede can help. B. However, not all leaves are equally rich.
C. Millipedes do amazing things in the soil in our forest.
D. Forests are amazing places, and so are the animals that live in them. E. As they break down on the ground, nutrients are returned to the soil. F. Many small animals that live in forests are very important for the soil.
G. This is how the millipede turns dead leaves into food for others and helps life continue.
36．【答案】D
【解析】本空位于第一段句首的位置，第二句讲到的是我们喜欢看各种动物的相关节目，关键词是动物；且本段有小标题Forest life, 重点在forest上，所以本空的句子应该包含forest和动物两关键词，故答案选择D选项Forests are amazing places, and so are the animals that live in them.。
37．【答案】F
【解析】根据下语句话中的one of them -the millipede需要注意one of them 中的them是表复数的人称代词，所以本空中得有个复数名词可以被them指代，另通过破折号后的the millipede可知此复数名词应该为动物，所以答案选F Many small animals that live in forests are very important for the soil.
38．【答案】E
【解析】本空下一句话Life in the forest needs these nutrients中的these nutrients为指示代词，指代上文中提到的信息，所以可知本空得有个复数名词nutrients。且E选项的前半句中的they可指代前一句中的leaves，故确定答案选E As they break down on the ground, nutrients are returned to the soil。
39．【答案】A
【解析】本空前两句话中正好指出问题，所以本句应该是解决问题的选项，故答案选A This is where the millipede can help。
