Question

Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big, and they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap.
The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. (A) They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If an insect touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The insect cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the insect until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the insect with a special liquid （液体）. Slowly, the plant eats the insect.
(B) Plants are living things that have leaves and roots and grow in earth. Most of them get energy from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all the important things that plants need, especially nitrogen （氮）. Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let’s hope that some of the bigger plants don’t get the same idea!

Answer 1

小题1:Yes, they can.
小题2:It is a famous meat-eating plant.
小题3:Because the plants need, especially nitrogen.

小题5:They have leaves and roots and grow in earth.

试题分析：本文叙述了大多数植物都能从太阳、空气和土壤里得到能量，而有一种吃肉的植物，这很特殊，本文介绍了吃肉的经过。
小题1:根据文章中Most of them get energy from the sun, the air, and the ground.大多数植物都能从太阳、空气和土壤里得到能量。所以此题答案是肯定的。
小题2:根据第二段内容可知Venus flytrap这种植物很出名是因为它是一种吃肉的植物，这很特殊。
小题3:根据文章中In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all the important things that plants need, especially nitrogen （氮）. Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need.在一些土壤贫瘠的地方，它没有植物所需要的一些重要的东西，尤其是氮。动物的肉富含氮，所以一些植物吃肉是因为它们想要得到它们所需要的东西。
小题4:根据文章中Its leaves are like the pages of a book. (A) They can open and close very quickly.它的叶子有一页书那么大，它们能快速的打开和关闭。此处they 指的就是这种植物的叶子。
小题5:原句是一个含有定语从句的复合句，我们可以把这个复合句拆开成两个简单句。定语从句的引导词that 改为主语they，代指植物。
