  What is color? Why do some objects look red, others green, others blue?

  Color is caused by reflected light rays. We see color because objects reflect light. Something that is red reflects mostly red light (It reflects a little green or blue light, too, but we don't see it). In the same way, a green object reflects mostly green light. White objects reflects all colors of light. Black objects don't reflect any light. What happens to the color of light that are not reflected? They are absorbed by the object. The darker the color, the less light is reflected and the more light is absorbed. Light that is absorbed is turned into heat. For this reason, dark-colored clothes are warmer in the sun than light clothes.

1.Color is caused by ________.

[  ]

A.the object itself
B.the light around an object
C.reflected light
D.your eyes

2.Something looks red because it ________.

[  ]

A.reflects mostly red light
B.absorbs mostly red light
C.reflects only red light
D.absorbs only red light

3.Light that looks black is reflecting ________.

[  ]

A.mostly black light
B.all light
C.many different colors
D.no light

4.Light that is absorbed is ________.

[  ]

A.turned into heat
B.stored by the object
C.reflected later
D.both B and C

5.In the sunlight, the warmest clothes would be ________.

[  ]

A.white
B.yellow
C.dark-colored
D.light-colored

  Guinness Book of World Records is a world famous collection of world records in human life, including all specific skills.

  On October 15, 1815, Napoleon disembarked in Saint Helena with those followers who were voluntarily accompanying him into exile(流放).

  Napoleon settled down to a life of routine. He got up late, breakfasting about 10 a. m. , but seldom went out.

  When it comes to language learning, you're the boss. You may say, “Isn't it the teacher's job to tell me what to learn?” Actually, effective language learners don't rely on the teacher to spoon-feed them. They are go-getters. They seek out chances to use their new language and to learn new vocabulary. They know that language proficiency won't just drop out of the sky, and that learning comes by doing. In short, they're active learners.

  “I know, I know,” you admit. “I should practise English more.” Actually, instead of looking for chances to practise English, think of ways to use English in daily life. That is, put yourself in situations where you'll be forced to communicate in English, and you'll see more progress over time. You need large help of English input to feed your language development. When you use the language, it will become your own.

1.According to the article, in language learning, one should be ________.

[  ]

A.active
B.painful
C.patient
D.clever

2.The underlined word “proficiency” probably means a high standard of ________.

[  ]

A.spoken English
B.education
C.ability and skill
D.learning

3.Which of the following doesn't accord with(符合) the point of the article?

[  ]

  Without the atmosphere there would he no weather, no wind, rain, snow, or clouds. Air is all around us; we live at the bottom of a great ocean of air. It is invisible, but we can feel it when it moves. There are miles of air above us, pressing down with great weight on the earth and everything on it. Because air presses down on us from all directions at the same time, and because we are able to bear(忍受) this weight, we do not seem to feel it. But scientists have proved that air has this weight, and that anything that has weight creates(产生) a force called pressure. As changes in air pressure take place, they, make air move.

  Air is a gas that expands (膨胀) when heated, gets lighter, and moves upward. When air is cooled, it gets heavier, sinks close to the earth's surface, and flows like water in a great river. As warm air rises, cold air rushes in to take its place. Thus winds originate(起源). The winds that blow high above us are caused by the warmer air running away from colder air. The wind we feel near the earth's surface is the heavy colder air trying hard to catch the warmer air. Changes in temperature cause the air to move. And of course there are many changes, so air movements are taking place practically all the time.

1.The first paragraph mainly tells us the causes of ________.

[  ]

A.why we don't feel air

B.why atmosphere is important to us

C.why there is air surrounding us

D.why there is air pressure

2.Air moves under such conditions that ________.

[  ]

A.there is air pressure

B.the air is heavy

C.air pressure doesn't remain the same all the time

D.air comes up and down

3.According to the passage, in same areas if farmers who grow grapes (葡萄) light fires in the early morning, that is because the farmers want to ________.

[  ]

A.drive away warm air

B.prevent cold air from coming to harm their plants

C.cause more wind

D.stop warm air running away

  There are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try. How? Packaging(包装) is the silent but persuading salesman.

  There on the shelves, each bottle, can, box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer(消费者), so that is buying not only a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect on the “quality” of the product and on how well it sells, because “Consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products,” as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers' feeling for packaging, noticed.

  Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colors draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years, the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that it is very good for your body. And the word “green” today can keep food prices going up.

  Shapes are another attraction. Circles often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. That's why the round yellow M signs of McDonald's are inviting to both young and old. This new consumer response(反应) to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that people buy to satisfy both body and soul.

1.According to the passage, ________ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the product.

[  ]

A.the pleasant color of the package

B.the special taste of the product

C.the strange shape of the package

D.the belief in the product

2.If a package or a product is round in shape, it can ________.

[  ]

A.bring excitement to the consumers

B.attract the consumers' attention

C.catch the eye movement of the consumers

D.produce a happy and peaceful feeling

3.“And the word ‘green’ today can keep food prices going up.” This sentence suggests that consumers today are ________.

[  ]

A.starting to notice the importance of new food

B.enjoying the beauty of nature more than before

C.beginning to like green vegetables

D.paying more attention to their healthy

4.It can be inferred from the passage that V8 is a kind of ________.

[  ]

A.vegetable dish
B.healthy juice
C.iced drink
D.red vegetable

  Millions of aircraft take off around the world every year. The skies they fly in seem limitless-miles of empty space. But, with the number of flights increasing each year, this emptiness no longer exists. Researches in the world of aviation(航空) are worried about the increasing pressure on pilots and ground controllers. And increasing collisions, occurring at or near an airport, have called attention to the need for more aids(辅助设备) to aviation control.

  People who travel the skies are not certain about air safety. A great deal of money is spent on new and bigger aircraft and airports to deal with the vast increase in passengers travelling by air. Only a small percentage of this money is spent on navigation(导航) and other aids. Actually, suitable electronic equipment has long existed, and many companies market safety aids designed to make it safer for aircraft to take off, fly any distance, and land, whatever the weather. Yet, there are two problems to be solved. The first is to get governments, airlines and airport officials to agree to basic levels of safety aids. The second problem is to find a way of meeting these basic requirements.

  But no matter how well the equipment works, operators of the equipment still play an important role. Communications between pilots and ground controllers are extremely important to air safety. It is worth pointing out that the mishearing or misunderstanding of instructions in English, and the use of another language, in an international conversation, have led to two recent aircraft accidents. A new type of instrument(仪器) called FLIGHTWATCH would help pilots prevent airport collisions. It would be particularly helpful near airports.

1.The increasing number of flights leads to the fact that ________.

[  ]

A.flying is no longer limited in the sky

B.there is no empty space for aids to aviation control

C.piloting and controlling planes is getting more difficult

D.the pressure on the ground becomes greater

2.There is uncertainty about air safety because ________.

[  ]

A.planes become bigger for the increasing number of passengers

B.money spent on electronic equipment is far from enough

C.suitable electronic equipment hasn't been invented yet

D.it is dangerous for planes to take off or land

3.The underlined word “collisions” probably means ________.

[  ]

A.accidents in which two planes hit each other

B.misunderstandings between pilots and ground controllers

C.quarrels among passengers

D.breakdowns of new types of instrument

4.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

[  ]

A.governments and officials have paid great attention to air safety

B.there should be more companies to sell new safety aids

C.English should be used in an international conversation

D.understanding between pilots and ground controllers should be improved

  A few years ago it was popular to speak of a generation gap, a disagreement between young people and their elders. Parents said that children did not show them proper respect and obedience, while children complained (抱怨) that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that a gap is built into the fabric (结构) of our society.

  One important cause of the generation gap is the chance that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In more traditional societies, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and agree to, and to continue the family occupation (职业). In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family home at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose occupations different from those of their parents.

  In our easily changing society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did: to find better jobs, to make more money, and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, however, the strong desire that parents have for their children are another cause of the disagreement between them. Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other.

  Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, elderly people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date overnight. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities.

  No doubt, the generation gap will continue to be a feature (特点) of American life for some time to come. Its causes are rooted in the freedom and changes of our society, and in the rapid speed at which society changes.

1.The main idea of the first paragraph is that ________.

[  ]

A.the generation gap suddenly appeared

B.the generation gap is a feature of modern social life

C.people can reduce the generation gap

D.many critics argue over the nature of the generation gap

2.The word “around”in Paragraph 1 means ________.

[  ]

A.on all sides
B.near
C.in every direction
D.in existence

3.Which cause of the generation gap is not mentioned in the passage?

[  ]

A.Young people like to choose their own life styles.

B.American society is changing very fast.

C.Parents place high hopes on their children.

D.Modern education makes them think differently.

4.In American society, young people often ________.

[  ]

A.depend on their parents to make a life

B.stay with their parents in order to get a chance for higher education

C.seek the best advice from their parents

D.have very little in common with their parents

5.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

[  ]

A.Parents should be strict with their children.

B.The younger generation should value the older generation for their wisdom.

C.The generation gap is partly caused by the older generation.

D.The generation gap does not exist in American society.

  Today, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a busy motor-way. But still there is a danger that grows every year. Airliners get larger and larger. Some airplanes can carry over 300 passengers. And the air itself becomes more and more crowded. If one large airliner struck into another in mid air, 600 lives could be lost.

  From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is watched on radar screens. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn, when to climb, and when to come down. The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London-Heathrow may deal with 2500 planes a day. Not all of them actually land at the airport. Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there. Even a small mistake on their part could cause a terrible accident.

  Recently such a disaster almost happened. Two large jets were flying towards the airport. One was carrying 69 passengers from Toronto, the other 176 passengers from Chicago. An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb. But he made a mistake. He ordered the wrong plane to do this. So, instead of turning away from the second plane, the first plane turned towards it. Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the second plane. They avoided (避免) each other by the smallest part of a second. The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool. This is an example of the danger that grows every year.

1.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

[  ]

A.Traveling by air is as safe as by car.

B.Traveling by air is not as safe as by car.

C.Traveling by car is as dangerous as by air.

D.Traveling by car is more dangerous than by air.

2.The air traffic controllers of an airport ________.

[  ]

A.control all the planes flying near the airport

B.give orders to planes

C.only deal with the planes that want to land there

D.are allowed to handle 250 planes a day

3.The danger of air crashes grows every year because ________.

[  ]

A.airliners are getting larger and air traffic is becoming heavier

B.a pilot does not always hear a controller's order

C.a controller is likely to make more and more mistakes

D.airports can hardly serve the growing number of airplanes

4.The example in the passage is to show that ________.

[  ]

A.air traffic controllers are often careless

B.air traffic controllers should pay much attention to avoiding accidents

C.it is difficult for airplanes to avoid terrible accidents

D.two planes should not fly too close to each other

  Last summer I went through a training program and became a literacy volunteer (扫盲志愿者). The training I received, though excellent, did not tell me how it was to work with a real student. However, when I began to discover what other people's lives were like because they could not read, I realized the true importance of reading.

  My first student Marie was a 44-year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found out she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didn's know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus schedule (时刻表), she told me it would not help because she could not read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket because she couldn't always remember what she needed. Since she did not know words, she could not write out a shopping list. Also, she could only recognize items by sight, so if the product had a different label (标识), she would not recognize it as the product she wanted.

  As we worked together, learning how to read built Marie's self-confidence (自信心), which encouraged her to continue her studies. She began to make rapid progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. After this successful trip, she reported how self-confident she felt. At the end of the program, she began helping her youngest son, Tony, a shy first grader, with his reading. She sat with him before he went to sleep and together they would read bedtime stories. When his eyes became wide with excitement as she read, pride was written all over her face, and she began to see how her own hard work in learning to read paid off. As she described this experience, I was proud of myself as well. I found that helping Marie to build her self-confidence was more rewarding than anything I had ever done before. As a literacy volunteer, I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact, I may have learned more from the experience than Marie did.

1.What did the author do last summer?

[  ]

A.She worked in the supermarket.

B.She helped someone to learn to read.

C.She gave single mothers the help they needed.

D.She went to a training program to help a literacy volunteer.

2.Why didn't Marie go to the supermarket by bus at first?

[  ]

A.Because she liked to walk to the supermarket.

B.Because she lived far away from the bus stop.

C.Because she couldn't afford the bus ticket.

D.Because she couldn't find the right bus.

3.How did Marie use to find the goods she wanted in the supermarket?

[  ]

A.She knew where the goods were in the supermarket.

B.She asked others to take her to the right place.

C.She managed to find the goods by their looks.

D.She remembered the names of the goods.
