What will the weather be like tomorrow? Some people say they can forecast(预测)the weather from animals.
Some of them look at seabirds. When they see seabirds fly high, they say it will be a nice day. When the weather is bad, the seabirds stay on the shore(岸). They don't like to fly in strong winds and they sit in trees when rain is on the way.
Other people look at different animals on the farm. For example, chickens may make a lot of noise and run here and there when rain is on the way. Frogs(青蛙)can tell the weather, too. When rain is on the way, they stay in water and make a lot of noise too. But when it is a nice day, they will be quiet and jump out of the water.

We talk every day. When we have good news, we like to share it with our good friends and when something terrible happens, we will let others know soon. But do you know that a tree can talk and share news? It sounds strange, but it's true that some trees can also communicate with each other. Of course, no tree moves lips and says words just as people do.
Willow trees(柳树)are the best- known of these trees. When insects(昆虫)begin eating a willow tree, the tree gives out a special smell at once. This smell tells the other willow trees that insects are coming near. All of them quickly make a chemical(化学物质)in their leaves. This chemical is bad for the insects. The insects do not like it and they fly away soon. In this way, the willow trees keep themselves away from the insects.
Next time when you take a walk near the trees, maybe the trees are "talking" to each other quietly. And when someone says that trees cannot "talk", please tell them that even trees can "talk" to each other, too.
(1)Willow trees communicate with each other by ________.
A.words B.winds C.smells D.sounds

(3)________ make(s) the insects fly away.
A.The leaves on the willow trees

C.The special smell that willow trees give out
D.The chemical that willow trees make in their leaves

When the weather is hot, you go to a lake or an ocean. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth(地面)hot but it cannot make the water very hot. Although the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth goes up. Then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When it moves in, you will feel the wind. And the wind makes you cool.
Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask "Why is the ocean full of salt(盐)?", scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks.
When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks(断裂). Rain falls into the cracks and then carries the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, "What happens to the salt in the ocean?" The ocean does not get saltier every year. Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question.
We know a lot about our world. But there are still many answers which we don't have and are curious(好奇的)about.

A.people feel cool when they are near a lake or an ocean
B.scientists can explain many things, but not everything

D.the salt in the ocean comes from rocks
(2)Now scientists know ________.
A.what makes people feel cool near a lake or an ocean in summer
B.everything about the ocean
C.what happens to the salt in the ocean
D.why the ocean does not get more and more salty
(3)A rock cracks when ________.

(4)In the first paragraph, the underlined word "it" refers to ________.
A.the hot air over the water
B.the cool air over the earth

A.The reason why people feel cool when they are near a lake or an ocean in hot weather.
