第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）根据短文内容，选出最佳选项。

A
About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by woman.
There are different kinds of color blindness. In some cases a man can not see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person can not tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. There help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods” but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but not color.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around.
36. This passage is mainly about ______.
A. color and its surprising effects
B. women being luckier than men
C. danger caused by color blindness
D. color blindness
37. According to the passage,, with the help of the ‘cones”, we
can ______.
A. tell orange from yellow
B. see in weak light
C. kill mosquitoes
D. tell different shapes
38. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?
A. Women are more careful.
B. There are fewer color-blind women.
C. Women are fonder of driving than men.
D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.
39. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a ______.
A. red light
B. yellow light
C. blue light
D. green light
B
One day when the famous American scientist Edison was on his way home, a young man stopped him and required to have a word with him. Edison accepted his request.
The young man asked, “How, Mr. Edison, how can you invent so many things and achieve your fame?”
The scientist said, “It seems that you h ave been thinking of becoming famous every day.”
The young man nodded, “Yes, I have been dreaming of being a person as famous as you. Every minute I an thinking of how to become famous. I don’t know when I can achieve my fame.”
Edison told him, “Don’t worr y, young man. If you want to be a famous man this way, you will have to wait until you die!”
“Why should I?” the young man was puzzled.
Edison said, “What you dreamed is actually a high building. You never think of how to build it with bricks. Thus the building will never come into reality. However, your story can serve as a mirror. People will remember you because of your idleness and laziness. They will often speak of your name while they give warnings to their children Aren’t you a notorious（声名狼藉的）perso n by then?”
The young man bent his head in shame.

The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means （通讯设备）.Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, Man moved to another place. But this is no longer true. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most s erious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air.
Pollution by carbon dioxide is now the most dangerous
kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is true that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in population at the same time.

today.

You are one of the most familiar faces in class, not because you are funny or have great note-taking abilities but because you ask the most number of questions. _46__ It is important to ask the right questions, though. Here are a few tips for improving your questioning skills:
Be clear and precise about what you want to know.
Be clear about what you want to know and frame your question accordingly. __47__ If you beat around the bush, your teachers won’t be entirely sure what it is that you haven’t understood, or need an explanation for.
__48__
If you are uncertain about a particular subject, clarify it when
it is being discussed. Because questions often open up new avenues within a subject. Doing this would benefit the whole class.
Do not hesitate to talk to your teacher after class.
__49_ Therefore, if you fell uncomfortable about asking a question in front of your classmates, wait till the class is over. This will probably put you more at ease.
Write down your questions.
__50__ They may appear when you’re studying, reading or taking notes. Note them down on a piece of paper so that you won’t forget to ask them later. Th is can also make sure that you don’t have any unanswered questions when the exam approaches.

D. You may think this is good.

to-the-point.

one-to-many.

It was 9∶20 that I got to the English Corner. Some were
reading some papers，and some were talking while others
were listening attentively. Someone was eager to learn from others. So I joined them in their talk.
