16、 green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food and energy.When trees are 4 years old, they begin to grow very rapidly and become strong enough to face challenges later in life.

33、 was in the army for a yearDo you have good friends? Do you sometimes feel so close to them that they are like family to you?It turns out that this isnt just an expression. A study by Yale University has found that you and your friends have more genes(基因) in common than strangers do. Researchers loo

34、ked at the genes of 1, 932 people and compared them in pairs of unrelated friends and strangers. They found that friends have 1% of genes that match.“1% of genes may not sound like much to the layperson(外行), but to geneticists(遗传学家) it is a larger number,” Professor Nicholas Christakis of Yale Unive

35、rsity told Discovery News.

For example, people who had a similar susceptibility(易感性) to the cold were more likely to help each other build a f

37、ire, giving them a better chance to stay alive.Researchers also found that among all the genes studied, those producing a change in sense of smell were the most similar in friends. This is probably because people who smell things in the same way are more easily drawn to similar environments. For exa

38、mple, people who like the smell of coffee may hang out at cafes(咖啡馆) more often and as a result are more likely to meet and become friends with each other.With their findings, the team has developed an interesting test called the “friendship score”.

42、 people gave each other chance to keep alive35Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?AFriendship: Its Influence on People and BehaviorBFriendship: Its Benefits to Teens and Decision MakingCFriendship: Is It Necessary to Be Judged by Time?DFriendship: Is It Possible to Be Infl
