Scientific Progress Most scientific progress is the result of careful consideration of work that has already been done. The wonderful world which lies before us today has been put up by hardworking men with clear heads and inventive mind, and these who follow them along life’s road will improve on their efforts. It is sometimes necessary to question and even to disbelieve some of the statements made by experts. Action or experiment can often end an argument or achieve a breakthrough. When men were wondering whether it was possible to reach India by sailing westwards from Europe, and whether there was any land on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, Christopher Columbus decides to act. He gathered some men, invited them to go on board his three ships, and set out across the dangerous waters of the Atlantic Ocean. He was successful in finding land, but it was not India. The result of his action was that the arguments came to the end. Any young man who wishes to do research must be courageous enough to question old beliefs and do some original thinking about them. Although we seem to know so much, there are many things we don’t know. Even when we pull an atom to pieces, we do not really know what the pieces are, we often do not reach the reality behind what we discover, and the more we learn, the better we realize our ignorance. 1.Christopher Columbus decided to set out his trip because he wants to ________ A.travel round the world B.bring words into action C.discover the truth with action D.bring the argument to an end 2.According to the passage, the more we learn _______ A.the more ignorance we will become B. the more brilliant we are C. the more confident we are of ourselves D. the more we know about our ignorance 3.Our present wonderful world has been built up by _______ A. men who do not believe in others but themselves B. those who work hard and dare to break way from old ideas C. those who can make improvements on other people’s work D. men who work extremely hard in following their teachers 4.Columbus succeeded in finding out that_______ A. the Atlantic was dangerous to get across B. India was to the west of the Atlantic C. There was land on the other side of the Atlantic D. it was possible sail to India by crossing the Atlantic

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange or red? If you do, you must be an optimist (乐观者), a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays (灰色) and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined (意志坚定的). You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists (心理学家) tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference (爱好), and the effect (影响) that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don't choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful (开心的) and more comfortable (舒服的) than a dark green one, and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing (压抑). Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray. Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don't forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief. 1.According to this passage, _________. A. one can choose his color preference B. one is born with his color preference C. one's color preference is changeable D. one has to choose his favorite color as soon as he can see clearly 2.We would pay attention to colors because _______. A. colors do have effect on our moods(情绪) B. colors may have effect on our work and study C. light and bright colors make people happy D. you can know your friends better by the colors they like or dislike 3. The main idea of this passage is ________. A. one's color preference shows one's character B. you can brighten your life with wonderful colors C. psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preference D. one's color preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beings 4. "I am feeling black" means ______. A. I am feeling well B. I am very happy C. I am excited D. I am depressed

Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space. The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural (文化的) difference, not an economic one. Knowing your own psychological (心理的) space needs is important because they strongly affect your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, the chances are if you have two children or more, that you also will offer separate bedrooms for them. In America, for example, they train people to want to have their own rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very unusual in the world. In many other countries, the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in bed near them. The space in the home also shows a lot about psychological space needs. Some families gather closer to each other and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little corners where family members go to be alone. Although it is true that psychological space needs are not decided by economic reasons, they sometimes have to be changed a little because of economic pressure(压力). It is almost impossible, however, to completely change your psychological space needs. 1.The first sentence in Paragraph 1 “Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of space” means “______”. A. Not two people need exactly the same amount of living space B. Living space requirements are not always the same C. The world requires the same amount of living space D. Nobody needs a required amount of living space 2.Some families gather closer to each other at home than others because ______. A. they have limited living space B. they are brought up in a large family C. it satisfies(满足) their psychological space needs D. the children in the family sleep in the same bed with their parents 3.Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Americans are trained to live in the large rooms at birth. B. Economic situation decides one's amount of space needs. C. People in different countries demand(need) different psychological space. D. Knowing your psychological space needs is important, as it has effect on your future. 4.The best title for this passage is ______. A. American Way of Living B. Psychological Space C. Space Needs in Different Countries D. Psychological Space and Economic Pressure

In some places, people use a bicycle to get to work. In other places, bicycle riding is a very popular exercise to people who live in cities. But who invented the first bicycle? In 1791, a Frenchman named Comte de Siverac invented and owned the first bicycle. Mrs. Sivrac rode the bicycle in Paris. The handles(把手) and the seat were wooden. This bicycle was very difficult to move. A rider even had to pick up the front wheel to change direction. Finally, the bicycle had no brakes for stopping or pedals for the feet! Riding a bicycle was a great risk! In 1817, a German named Baron von Draus de Sauerbrun made the first bicycle better. The seat became more comfortable. The wheel could now change direction. His ride in the forest took only one hour instead of three hours on foot, which surprised people at that time. Sauerbrun brought this kind of bicycle from Germany to France. Then Denis Johnson, an Englishman, made a bicycle for women. It had spaces for their dresses to hang down. But these bicycles still had no brakes or pedals, and riders often got hurt. These bicycles and the people who rode them were not very popular. It took another forty-five years for the bicycle to become popular. More than 100 years later, bicycle riding is more popular than ever. In fact, in India and China, there are still many more bicycles than cars. The Great Invention

阅读下面短文,根据下面小题的具体要求,尽可能简要回答问题,并将答案转写到答题卡上。 Playing is serious business for children. In fact, it's what they do best! Ask them why they do it, and kids will probably say,"Because it's fun!" But it's much more than that. It's also good for them. Studies show that from birth babies begin learning through play. They use their five senses to get know their new world. Touching allows them to discover how different things feel. Brightly colored toys and clothing help develop a baby's sense of sight. When small children choose which toy to play with, they begin developing their abilities in making decisions. Children love toys that allow them to use their imagination. Sometimes an empty box is more fun than a high-tech toy. That's because a box can become anything a child imagines it to be. Crayons, paints and Play-Doh(彩色塑泥) are also good because they allow children to create. Traditional building blocks teach important pre-math skills like problem-solving. Playing doesn't become any less important once children start school. Many valuable lessons about life are learned on the school playground. Kids learn how to share, take turns and play by the rules. 1.What can children do best in their childhood? (回答词数不超过1个)
2.What do colored toys and clothing help develop?(回答词数不超过5个)
3.Children like toys to develop their imagination. Do you think so?(回答词数不超过5个)
