The 70-year-old woman makes a living by selling clothes. She wakes up at four every morning and travels across the region to do her business. She had just returned to her home inHarare, Zimbabwe earlier this week when she heard about a hurricane on the radio.The storm, which is currently regarded as one of the worst hurricanes to hit the Southern hemisphere（南半 球），blew through parts of Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Malawi. Upon learning about the result of the storm, Dilon immediately filled a bag with kitchen supplies and clothes that she had intended to sell. She wanted to take them all to a disaster relief area. Because she did not have any money for a bus ticket, she walked for 10 miles and gave the supplies to a local church.The church praised her good deed by posting a photo of her and her huge supply bag on social media. After it was shared by thousands of people, it finally caught the eye of Strive Masiyiwa. Masiyiwa is currently placed as one of the richest people in Africa by Forbes.

With your roots firmly planted in the earth, there is no way to run away from an insect who wants to lay their eggs on your leaves, or when the larvae（幼虫）hatch and start eating you. That is why all plants have developed defence systems to protect against insects and fungi（真菌）that would otherwise devour their fragile leaves, seeds, or fruits. As TED-Ed points out in a new video lesson by molecular biologist Valentin Hammoudi, some protective adaptations in plants are obvious, like the thorns（刺） on a rose or the spines on a cactus（仙人掌）.Some plants are covered in tiny, sticky hairs that are hard for humans to see. Others are less apparent at first glance. A plant can grow in a hidden or hard-to-get-to place, growing on steep, rocky cliffs（悬崖）.Or, a plant could make only some parts of itself attractive to hungry insects and animals. For instance, if a plant produced really tasty leaves, herbivores （creatures that eat only plants） might eat the leaves instead of the seeds, which the plant needs for making more plants.But the most interesting way that plants fight back is by using chemicals. Plants take minerals from the soil and combine them into chemicals that do a lot of work. For example, plants produce chlorophyll （叶绿素），which helps change sunshine and water into the sugar that plants eat.They also produce chemicals to help protect themselves. One kind of tobacco plant releases a chemical into the air whenever small bugs begin to eat it. The chemical signals large bugs, saying "Dinner's ready!" The big bugs come to eat the little ones and save the plant.According to M?ller, it is important to understand the plants defence mechanisms in order to know what the future may hold for plants as the climate continues to change.28. What does the underlined word “devour” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Use softly or cut sharply.B. Eat quickly or destroy completely.C. Bite terribly or watch eagerly.D. Watch eagerly or destroy completely.29. What do we know from the passage?A. A plant grows in a hard-to-get-to place to draw people's attention.B. Plants produce chemicals to meet the needs of big bugs.C.Some plants hide under the covers when faced with threat.D. Some plants produce tasty leaves to protect their seeds.30. What does one kind of tobacco do when it is under attack?A. It gets help from other plants.B. It signals large bugs by making noises.C. It sends out chemicals.D. It says,“ Dinner is ready!”31. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Plant chemicalsB. Plant protectionC. Plant attacksD. Plant threatsDAs the first national park in the world, Yellowstone National Park was established in 1872. Since then its natural wonders have attracted explorers and tourists.
