Hidden beneath the surface in the roots of Earths' astonishing and diverse plant life,there exists a biological superhighway linking together the members of the plant kingdom in what researchers call the "wood wide web".
   The network consists of thin threads of fungus(真菌)that grow outwards underground up to a few meters from its partnering plant,meaning that all of the plant life within a region likely connected to one another.The partnership is beneficial for both parties involved,plants provide carbohydrates(碳水化合物) to the funguses and in exchange,the funguses aid in gathering water and providing nutrients to its partnering plant.
   A study conducted by Rensen Zeng of the South China Agricultural University found that this also allowed for plants to warn one another of potential harm.The study showed Broad Beans used the fungal network to spy on one another for upcoming danger.
   Like our Internet,this fungal connectivity is also full of crime.Some plants,such as Golden Marigolds have been found to release poisons into the network to slow down the growth of surrounding plants in the fight for water and light.Other plants,such as the Phantom Orchid,do not have the chlorophyll(葉綠素)and must get the necessary nutrients from surrounding plants.
   Research suggests that animals such as insects and worms may be able to detect slight exchanges of nutrients through the network,allowing them to more easily find delicious roots to feed on;however,this has not been conclusively made clear in experimentation.The more we learn about this phenomenon,the more our understanding of the plant life of our planet will continue to change.Perhaps one day,we may be able to map out these complex networks entirely.

  • 1.Some caterpillars' warning signals(信號(hào))may have evolved(進(jìn)化)from walking.
       A team,writing in the journal Nature Communications,reported that the hair-like structures the living things use to make sounds evolved from legs.
       The team studied caterpillars which use these structures to communicate their ownership of leaves.This means the caterpillars are able to"tell"strangers to go away without risking injury in fighting."These are really interesting caterpillars,"said Dr.Jayne Yack from Carleton University in Ottawa,Canada,who led the research."They make signals using hair-like structures which are on their back ends."
       The caterpillars drag these structures across the leaf to make scraping(刺耳的)sounds when strangers enter the area of their leaves."When they make this signal,the strangers leave,"explained Dr.Yack."It's like saying'I'm here,get out of here-I already own this leaf '."
       The scientists looked at other species(物種)within the same group of caterpillars and created their"family tree".They used chemical markers(標(biāo)記物)to work out the relationship between the animals,showing which in the group were the more ancient species and which species evolved more recently."Those more ancient species actually don't have these sound-producing structures.They have legs that they use to walk towards strangers,"said Dr.Yack.These more ancient species,she explained,walk towards strangers and try to fight against them."They can kill each other in the fighting,"Dr.Yack added.She said that the evolution of the scraping show had allowed the caterpillars to solve their fighting without injury."So our idea is that these signals actually avoid harm to both sides-they solve fighting in a more' friendly' way."
       The study also provides a map of an evolutionary process that many other biologists are researching.

    (1)What can we learn about caterpillars' warning structures from the text?

    A.They have the same use as hair.
    B.They are found in caterpillars' heads.
    C.They are used to fight against strangers.
    D.They may have evolved from caterpillars' legs.
    (2)According to the text,Dr.Yack's team did NOT
    .
    A.draw a family tree of caterpillars
    B.create a map to show how caterpillars evolve
    C.study species within the same group of caterpillars
    D.make clear the relationship between different species of caterpillars
    (3)What does the underlined word"They"in the fifth paragraph refer to?

    A.The ancient species.
    B.The chemical markers.
    C.The sound-producing structures.
    D.The more recently evolved species.
    (4)What is the main idea of the text?

    A.How caterpillars evolved.
    B.How caterpillars warn strangers.
    C.Communication between caterpillars.
    D.Caterpillars' warning signals evolved from walking.
