5 . 
Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big. And they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is Venus Flytrap (捕蝇草).
Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly, so the fly can not get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly and slowly eats it. Why do plants do that?
Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen (氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let’s hope that bigger plants don’t get the same idea!

9 . 阅读下面材料，根据材料内容，完成下列各题。
People usually move or lift things in life. But sometimes many people hurt their backs when they try to lift heavy things from the floor. It is easy to hurt your back muscles (肌肉) when you try to pick up a heavy thing. However, there are some correct ways to lift things from the floor. If you pick up heavy things correctly, you probably will not hurt your back. Here are some tips (提示) for you.
Firstly, you should do the following steps when you want to lift something heavy from the floor.
★Bend (弯曲) your knees and lower yourself.
★Keep your back straight. Do not bend over from your waist (腰). If you bend over, the muscles in your lower back can become hurt very easily.
★Keep your back and hips (臀部) and waist in a line. If you keep them straight, the muscles are stronger, because they hold up together. The other muscles can then help the lower back muscles.
Secondly, when you lower yourself, you should try to get as close to the thing as you can. For example:
★Put one knee on each side of the thing.
★Remember to keep your back straight at all times.
★Put your hand under the thing that is in front of you, between your knees.
Thirdly, to lift the things, you should stand up slowly. Use your leg muscles in order to stand up. In other words, lift with your legs, not with your back.
Hope you can be in good health all the time:
