Part 5
Reading comprehension
The basic morphology of plants reflects their
evolutionary history as terrestrial organisms. The algal
ancestors of plants were bathed in a solution of water and
minerals, including bicarbonate, the source of carbon dioxide
for photosynthesis in aquatic habitats. In contrast, the
resources a terrestrial plant needs are divided between the soil
and air, and the plant must inhabit these two very different
environments at the same time. Soil provides water and
minerals, but air is the main source of carbon dioxide, and light
does not penetrate far into the soil. The evolutionary solution to
this separation of resources was differentiation of the plant
body into two main systems: a subterranean root system and
aerial shoot system consisting of stems, leaves and flowers.
Neither system can live without the other. Lacking chloroplasts
and living in the dark, roots would starve without sugar and
other organic nutrients imported from the photosynthetic
tissues of the shoot system. Conversely, the shoot system
depends on water and minerals absorbed from the soil by roots.
1. The ancestors of plants used nutrients from the:
a. soil
b. air
c. water
d. algae
2. A terrestrial plant lives in the:
a. soil
b. air
c. water
d. soil and air
3. The plant's evolutionary solution was:
a. assimilation
b. photosynthesis
c. organic
d. differentiation
4. The two main plant systems are:
a. stems and leaves
b. roots and shoots
c. chloroplasts and roots
d. flowers and roots
5. The two plant systems:
a. require each other
c. lack chloroplasts

b. are independent
d. are subterranean

Cloze test

Is it for you?

This little pill can keep a woman young, but


for some its risky.
When a new patient strode into the office of
gynecologist Robert A Wilson in the early 1960s, he could
hardly believe his eyes Mrs. P. G. as he later called her, was
52 years old, but she had the smooth skin and youthful body of
woman half her age.

71
Asked about menopause, Mrs. P.G. laughed and replied, Dr.
Wilson, I have never yet .1. a period. Im so regular,
.2 could use me for timing the moon. She later revealed
that she was 3.. birth-control pills containing estrogen and
a second female hormone, progesterone.
The patient was a walking, talking confirmation of
Wilsons most deeply held medicine .4. that treating
menopausal women with female hormones could actually
prevent menopause and the fast and painful aging process
that attend it. Three years later, Wilsons best selling book,
Feminine forever, announced the good news to all women.
Since then, estrogen-either alone or combined with
other hormones in a treatment known as hormones
replacement 5... has indeed become the closest thing in a
modern medicine to a womans 6. of youth. I have a
hunch that Ill remain on HRT for the rest of my life, says Frida,
a university instructor in her early 70s who feels that estrogen
gives her more energy and a more 7.appearance.
