| Two people sit down to play Go (围棋). One of the players is an old man. He is now 89 years old. He has spent all of his life playing this game. The other person is a young woman. She has been playing Go for only three years. Before this, the woman was an expert at playing computer games. Now she plays Go the same way she played computer games－by becoming a machine herself. They will play many games, until they know who the winner is. The woman shows no feelings but thinking about all the possible ways of placing her next stone. The old man, on the other hand, looks at the movements of her hands and of her face. This has always helped him to win. He wins the first three games. She wins the next game, and the man is surprised. He has never lost to a woman. The old man worries about the way the young woman is playing the game. He can't read her face; he does not understand her way of playing. "The way I think about the game" says the woman, "is that it is steps for getting what I want." Again, the old man is surprised. For him, the game is a way of life itself, and not a model of life. "There is no more beauty any longer. Everything is science and rules. Everything is about winning. Nothing is about playing" he says. They cannot agree with each other; but it is not necessary. "Change is a necessary part of life" thinks the man. "Playing is as important as winning" thinks the woman. They start to play their final game. |

| Why do plants grow in some places and not in others? Why does some land have so much growing on it, while other land has almost no plants growing on it at all? To grow, plants need several things. One is warmth. In very cold places almost nothing grows. Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the Earth only a few unusual plants can grow. That's why dry deserts everywhere are almost not covered by trees or grass. Plants must also have a place in which to put down their roots and grow. They find it difficult to grow on hard land. The town is built on hard land. The plants here have only the soil found between the cracks of the stones to grow in. Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food. What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach? A few plants, such as beach grass, will grow in sand, but most plants won't. Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants each day, many of them will die because the sand on this beach has almost no food for plants. |
| 1. According to the passage, plants need ______ things to grow well. |
| A. two B. three C. four D. five |
| 2. What does the underlined word "cracks" mean in the text? |
| A. 缝隙 B. 表面 C. 夹层 D. 底部 |
| 3. From the passage, we can know it is for plants to grow in dry places. |
| A. easy B. difficult C. impossible D. important |
| 4. The reason why most plants can't grow on the sandy beach is that _______. |
| A. there isn't enough sunlight B. there is too much water C. it is too crowded there D. it has little food for plants |
| 5. The passage can most probably be found in a ______ book. |
| A. science B. history C. travel D. math |
