9、the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1As a volunteer, Charlie Starbuck has helped to plant tress on the streets of San Francisco. He has them in just about every part of this city. Walk a block
10、 or two in virtually any neighborhood, and you will find Mr. Starbucks fingerprints are there. Whatever tree species you might see there, chances are excellent that Starbuck helped plant it with his own hands.Starbuck has volunteered with a citywide tree-planting program since 1981; thats over thirt

Just before a young tree goes in the ground, Starbuck uses a box cutter to make vertical slices down each side of the root ball so the roots dont continue to grow in a circular way, as they do in their containers.He is also particular about staking(用柱子支撑)the tree. Three
15、 poles are driven in, and then soft cloth straps are attached to each pole so that the tree can wave a bit. The ability to wave actually strengthens the trunk.While the city may still be short on trees, nearly 1,000 new trees took root here last year thanks to FUF. It receives nearly half of its funds from the federal government and most of the rest from state and local governments, individuals, corporations and foundations. On a walk through his own neighborhood, Pacific Heights, Starbuck has a tree story for almost
