　　The blue eyes that looked at him from outside the door were like the light through a magnifying glass (放大镜) when it is at its brightest and smallest, when paper and leaves begin to smoke.

　　“Hey ,” said the man in the door. “Remember me?”

　　“Yes,” the boy said, whispering. “Rick.”

　　He felt so surprised to see Rick. All of Rick seemed to be shown in the eyes, with a strong feeling that ought to have hurt him

　　“You knew me,” Rick said. “You hadn’t forgotten.”

　　“You’re ——just the same,” the boy said, and felt much thankful.

　　He seemed even to be wearing the same clothes, the same blue shirt and grey trousers. He was thin, but he was built to be lean; and he was still, or again, sunburnt (晒黑了). After everything, the slow white smile still showed the slight feeling of happiness.

　　“Let’s look at you,” Rick said, dropping into a chair. Then slowly he felt more at home, and he became once more just Rick, as if nothing had happened. There were lines about his eyes, and deeper lines on his cheeks (面颊), but he looked like——just Rick, lined by sunlight and smiling.

　　Can trees talk? Yes, but not in words. Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate (交际) with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛虫) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so terrible that they got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special smell---a signal (信号) causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty.

　　Communication, of course, doesn’t need to be in words. We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar (花蜜) for honey. So why shouldn’t trees have ways of sending message?

　　1. It can be concluded from the passage that caterpillars do not feed on leaves that ______.

　　A. are lying on the ground B. have an unpleasant taste

　　C. bees don’t like D. have an unfamiliar shape

　　2. The willow tree described in the passage protected itself by ______.

　　A. growing more branches B. communicating with birds and bees

　　C. changing its leaf chemistry D. shaking caterpillars off

　　3. According to the passage, the willow tree was able to communicate with other trees by ______.

　　A. waving its branches B. giving off a special smell

　　C. dropping its leaves D. changing the colour of its trunk

　　4. According to this passage, bees communicate by ______.

　　A. making special movement B. touching one another

　　C. smelling one another D. making unusual sound
