Ⅱ.七选五
When you’re deciding how to plant a tree, the most important considerations are choosing the right tree and placing it in the right spot. Trees vary widely in their needs for space, light, moisture and soil conditions. When you’ve chosen a tree, you’ll need to prepare your site for planting.
Dig a hole a foot deep and twice as wide as the root ball of the new tree. Loosen the soil at the bottom and sides of the hole. 1
Gently remove the tree from the container. 2 Build soil up and around the roots if necessary, so the tree can be at the same soil level as it was originally grown.
3 Before you begin backfilling(回填) the hole, have someone view the tree from several directions to confirm that the tree is straight. Once you begin backfilling the hole, it is difficult to reposition(改变位置) the tree.
Backfill the hole with existing soil. At this time you can also add fertilizer(肥料) such as bone meal or any other fertilizer. Then water the tree.
Caring for the tree once it is planted is an important step. It needs watering regularly. When the soil below the surface of the covering becomes dry, it’s time to water it. 4 Continue until mid-autumn,when the tree needs less water.
Spring and autumn are generally the best time to plant a tree. 5 In areas without cold winters, trees may be planted during the winter. In northern climates, spring planting gives the tree more time to get established before the harsh winter.
A.Straighten the tree in the hole.
B.Then guide the tree into the hole carefully.
C.Make a note of your goals for planting a tree.
D.Planting a tree is big investment.
E.In this way roots will be able to easily enter the soil.
F.You will probably need to water it at least once a week.
G.This gives the tree time to adjust before the hot or the cold season arrives.

Ⅱ. 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了植树要选择合适的时间与合适的地点,如何植树和如何养护树,包括挖坑、种植、填土、管理、浇水等。还提到春天和秋天通常是最佳的植树时间的原因。
1.E 空格前一句提到要疏松树坑底部和四周的土壤,设空处说明这么做的结果:这样树根就能容易地扎进土壤,故E项符合语境。
2.B 根据文章整体内容可知,此处是讲植树的步骤。本空承接上句,轻轻地把树拿出来之后要小心地放入树坑,故选B项。
3.A 空格后面的内容提到在回填之前,让人从各个方向看,确保树是直的,故此处应选A项,表示把树在树坑里放直。
4.F 本空承接上文,空格前提到要定期浇水并说明了什么时候浇水,F项意思是“你可能需要每周至少浇水一次”符合语境。
5.G 空格前一句提到春季和秋季通常是最好的植树时间,本空解释原因:这给了树在炎热或寒冷的季节到来之前适应的时间,G项符合语境。
