But does music affect plants, too? People have been experimenting with music and plants for almost three decades. From schoollevel projects to higherlevel scientific experiments, the effect of music on plants has been a confusing and debatable topic.We know music is sound, and sound is nothing more than a wave. Plant growth is a result of the cell division that takes place within the cells. But why is music associated with plant growth? In humans, music has a strong effect on our health and mood, and over the years, people have claimed that the same effect of music has been observed on plants, too. Plants are sensitive by nature, and many people claim that they have feelings just as humans do. There are stories about plants shedding tears. Although scientists do not support these as facts, these myths have led them to take up various experiments on plants.Various studies have proved that plants respond to acoustic (聲音的) energy. It increases their rate of growth and their size, and influences their overall health. Dan Carlson, after a thorough study over a span of many years, has reached a conclusion that music helps plants absorb nutrients more efficiently.It took Dan about fifteen years to develop a foliage spray (葉面噴劑) that is used beneficially with the sound frequencies. Carlson calls this spray “Sonic Bloom”. His findings have proved to be beneficial for countless farmers and have resulted in according to Guinness Book of World Records the largest indoor plant on record.The Purple Passion was treated with the Sonic Bloom process. It grew to be 1,300 feet tall and was alive even after 25 years. Its normal lifespan, however, is 18 months and it grows not more than 18 feet tall. The book, Secrets of the Soil, writes about Sonic Bloom and its results. Sonic Bloom is also sold in the market.語篇解讀：音樂是否對植物的生長有影響呢？盡管人們一直對這一問題有疑問，但已經有研究表明，音樂有助于植物的生長。5What inspired scientists to experiment with plants?AThe effects of music on human beings.BPeoples unscientific descriptions of plants.CThe fact that plants grew better with music.DThe cell division taking place within the cells.解析：選B細節(jié)理解題。根據第二段最后三句可知，有些人認為植物像人一樣有感情，而且還有故事講述植物流淚，正是這些不科學的描述使科學家萌生了對植物進行實驗的想法。6According to the third paragraph, it has been proved that _.Aplants truly have emotionsBmusic has a bad effect on plantsCmusic is good for plants in a wayDthe growth of plants is decided by music解析：選C推理判斷題。根據第三段第二、三句可推知，許多研究已經證實，音樂有助于植物的生長和健康，它在一定程度上對植物是有益的。7What did Dan Carlson develop?AA spray called “Sonic Bloom”BA method to grow larger plants.CThe largest indoor plant on record.DAcoustic energy produced from plants.解析：選A細節(jié)理解題。根據第四段前兩句可知，Dan Carlson 研制了一款名為 Sonic Bloom 的葉面噴劑。8Why was the Purple Passion included in Guinness Book of World Records?AIt was the fastest growing plant.BIt was the most sensitive plant.CIt was the oldest indoor plant.DIt was the largest indoor plant.解析：選D細節(jié)理解題。根據倒數第二段最后一句可知，該植物入選吉尼斯世界紀錄是因為它是世界上最大的室內植物。
