问题    Plants need green leaves to make food. A plant needs sunlight and carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) from the air for making food and it also needs water and salts from the soil to make food too. There are certain cells (细胞) in the leaves which change carbon dioxide and water into sugar. To do this the cells need energy, which they get from the sunlight.
   Green leaves make food for the whole plant. A red leaf can make food too because under the red coloring of the leaf there are food-making cells. There are no leaves that are completely yellow, for they can’t make food.
   The plant makes sugar for its food. In sunlight green leaves make a lot of sugar. The veins (叶脉) can’t carry all this sugar away, so the leaves change the sugar into starch (淀粉), which is kept and so stored in the leaves. At night, the starch change back to sugar. It is then carried away from the leaves. Some of the sugar is used as food by the plant while the rest is stored as starch. In some plants, food is stored in the roots; in others it is stored in the stem and in leaves, fruits and seeds.
To make food, plants need a lot except ______.

选项 A、the air
B、the soil
C、green leaves
D、dead leaves

答案D

解析 从第一段可知,the air、the soil和green leaves都是植物制造食物的必需条件,而dead leaves根本不可能制造食物。所以D是正确答案。
