Exposed soil isn’t part of nature’s master plan. Good examples where
soil is naturally found with no plants growing in are beneath freshly removed
trees, or where the ground has been burnt by a land fire. In these situations
bare soil isn’t bare for long; within days seedlings(芽) begin to appear and
cover the ground. In a few months’ t ime, the scar is hardly noticeable.
Unlike these natural examples, ploughed(耕犁) fields and freshly dug gardens are obvious examples created by man. But, left to nature, even these bare soils soon turn green with a large number of tiny seedlings. In fields, gardens and on grasslands, roadside and sports fields, along streets and on paths and pavements, we are constantly battling to stop weeds from growing. All we are doing is stop the recovering powers of nature.
Whenever soil is exposed, weeds act like a kind of medicine to reduce the potentially harmful rays of the sun, so the sooner plant growth covers the soil over again, the better.
Weeds also help to improve the fertility(肥沃) of the soil. Their roots get the soil together, improving its structure and creating a more stable environment in which soil life can grow fast. Those weeds with a deep root draw up plant nutrients from deeper in the ground, making them available to plants growing near the soil surface. Above ground, the stems(茎)of weeds help trap fallen leaves which break down into the soil, adding to the fertility of the soil.
As the soil becomes more fertile, different kinds of plants start to replace the “pioneering”weeds. Bushes move in to take the place by gradually shading them out, followed in turn by trees, which eventually push up through the bushes, finally shading them out too. Fallen leaves from the bushes and trees carry on the job of building soil fertility that was begun by those very first weeds that grew on the bare soil. Then, when one of these mature trees is removed in a storm，leaving a wound of bare soil in the earth, the whole process starts again.
【解题导语】人们到处阻止杂草等植物的生长，然而，它们却有助于增加土壤的肥沃度。

所以，土壤和植物之间是相互促进的关系。

【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

文章主要介绍了IMA血库建立的目的以及运转情况。

1．was set 解析：考查动词的时态和语态。

分析句子结构可知，动词set与主语“The IMA Blood Bank”之间是被动关系；又因为时间状语是“in 1995”，所以用一般过去时的被动语态。

故用was set。

2．of解析：考查介词。

此处是介词用于固定短语中，lack of sth.意为“缺少，缺乏”。

故用of。

3．moved解析：考查非谓语动词。

根据句型结构分析可知，动词move与句子的主语“Dr. Dipak”之间是被动关系，即Dr. Dipak被深深地感动了，所以用过去分词作状语，表示被动。

故用moved。

4．simply解析：考查词性转换。

simple是形容词，意为“简单的”；simply是副词，意为“简单地，仅仅”。

分析句子结构可知，此处应用副词修饰原因状语从句，意为“仅仅因为……”。

故用simply。

5．What解析：考查名词性从句。

根据句型结构分析可知，“________began as a small activity”是一个主语从句，从句中缺少主语，所以用what；又因为是句首，所以要注意首字母大写。

故用What。

6．the解析：考查冠词。

此处是定冠词用于固定短语中，round the clock意为“日夜不停地”。

故用the。

7．To help解析：考查非谓语动词。

此处是动词不定式置于句首，表示目的。

故用To help。

注意首字母大写。

8．forms解析：考查名词复数。

form是可数名词，意为“形式”。

因为form前有“one of”修饰，所以要用复数形式。

故用forms。

9．healthy解析：考查词性转换。

health是名词，意为“健康”；healthy是形容词，意为“健康的”。

be 动词后接形容词作表语。

故用healthy。

10．creating解析：考查非谓语动词。

create在此处作介词“in”后面的宾语，所以要用动名词的形式。

故用creating。
