    There's much to see under the sea, but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air. The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are. You might find yourself reaching out to touch something and completely missing it.

Objects under water will appear larger than they would on the surface, too. Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away. That fish might not be so big after all! It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!

What's more, in deeper water, colors just don't seem as bright. In fact, it looks as if some colors are missing. Remember the color of an object results from the wavelengths (波长) of light that are reflected (反射) from its surface. And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.

Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater. Let's take a bright red, yellow, and blue wet suit as an example. These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water. Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in the water. The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths, the longest among these three colors, are missing. As you go down deeper, the same thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part. Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater, you will look terrible, like a ghost! And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again!

1.You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because________.

A.your eyesight is quite poor

B.you are not quick enough

C.it is not as close as it seems

D.it disappears very quickly

2.The example of the wet suit is used to explain the change of________of an object underwater.

A.the color B.the size C.the position D.the weight

3.The underlined word "descend" probably means________ in this passage.

A.go out B.go up C.go in D.go down

4.Which of the following is true?

A.The wavelengths of red light are longer than those of blue light.

B.A four-meter-long fish looks three meters long underwater.

C.Much water will be taken in by the swimmer deep in the water.

D.You will see a ghost if you go as deep as 6 to 9 meters into the sea.

5.The best title of this passage is________.

A.The Standard of Color Underwater B.The Direction of Light Underwater

C.The Brightness of Color Underwater D.The Behavior of Light Underwater

 

1.C 2.A 3.D 4.A 5.D 【解析】 本文大意:这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲解了一些水下光学现象,并举例说明水下颜色变化的原因。 1.细节理解题,由第一段第二句The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are.可知,水下的物体没有看上去那么近,所以有的时候你伸手去够水里的东西,却够不着。故选C。 2.细节理解题,由第四段第四句 Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in the water.可知,潜水衣的例子被用来解释说明水下物体颜色的变化。故选A。 3.词义猜测题,由第四段第六句"As you go down deeper.以及下文提到随着潜水深度的加深,颜色逐渐变化。可知,划线的descend在文中可能是“下潜”的意思。故选D。 4.推理判断题,根据“The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths, the longest among these three colors, are missing.”可知,红色的光波是三种颜色中波光最长的 ,故A正确;根据“just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!只是因为有时候水里的东西看起来要比在陆地上大33%!”故B错误;选项C说的是很多水会被深水中的游泳者吸收。文中并没有提及,故C错误;根据“Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater, you will look terrible, like a ghost!即使在水下6到9米的地方,你也会看起来很可怕,像个幽灵!”只是看起来像幽灵一样,而不是遇到幽灵,可知D错误,故选A。 5.最佳标题,本文首段首There's much to see under the sea, but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air. 是文章的主题句,通读全文并结合主题句可知,文章主要讲解了一些水下光学现象。故选D。

    What is the future of AI (人工智能)? Will it be a good thing? We asked four students what they think.

I think AI will be more useful in our future lives. It's now used in many fields, like phones and medicine. No one really knows what will happen if machines become smarter than humans.  However, I'm sure AI will help us solve many problems.

—Tina

I am worried that people create something that can be better than themselves. In the near future, AI will develop at a high speed. Humans may be replaced (取代) because AI robots will do lots of human jobs.

—Bill

I really think that AI will change the way we work, the way we live, and the way we think. Imagine if we could put a CPU (中央处理器) into our brains! Soon we'll be able to improve our math and memory. How exciting!

—Mary

Think of what's happening right now: Some robots are used to kill animals under human orders. So I think AI will be very dangerous for humans. We need to be careful about what we ask machines to do.

—John

 

 

1.John thinks that AI will be________.

A.exciting B.surprising C.helpful D.dangerous

2.Who thinks AI will help us solve many problems?

A.John. B.Bill. C.Tina. D.Mary.

    I'd planned to spend my weekend in the sun, planting flowers outdoors. But that was before the pair of crows (乌鸦). Out of nowhere, they had set up their base camp in our garden.

We first discovered the crows on Friday morning. It was early, and the sound the birds made traveled through our neighborhood. I thought they'd go away soon. But, no. They were getting louder and probably made my neighbors angry nearly as much as us with the noise. I felt a little disappointed.

Then, on Sunday afternoon, I looked out of the kitchen window to see our dog Quatchi watching something on the ground. I found a small coal-black bird in the grass. Its eyes were milky, and it stayed perfectly still as my dog inched towards it. Only when Quatchi touched his nose to its head did it walk away. I grabbed the dog and locked him inside and came back with my camera.

I never thought that the young would be hanging out on the ground, growing and gaining strength as its parents guarded it from above. The second I saw this little bird I forgave (原谅) the crows.

To be honest, I've never been much of a bird person. I also have a healthy respect for birds.

They're basically living dinosaurs (恐龙).

I wish they'd chosen another garden. There are only so many sunny days in Seattle, and I still can't do any gardening out there. But I'm also thankful that I got to see this little bit of nature. It's pretty amazing.

The experience has also strengthened my wish to create a beautiful garden that attracts lots of bees, butterflies, and yes, birds. They are welcome here.

1.The arrival of the two crows________.

A.angered the writer's neighbors B.made the writer's dog mad

C.was harmful to the writer's garden D.broke the order of the writer's life

2.Why did the writer lock her dog up?

A.She wanted to take some photos. B.The parent crows were to attack the dog.

C.She wanted to protect the little bird. D.The dog kept making loud noises.

3.The writer changed her thoughts to the crows when________.

A.she planted flowers in her garden B.she locked her dog inside

C.she saw the little bird in her garden D.she thought of living dinosaurs

4.The passage is mainly to________.

A.share a personal experience B.advise readers to protect birds

C.show an unpleasant situation D.ask advice on dealing with crows
