阅读理解。     When the traffic lights turn red, we will stop driving a car or crossing a street. Why is red used for
traffic lights instead of other colors?
     As we know, scattering (散射) happens when light goes through the air. For the same media (媒质),
if the wavelength is long, the scattering will be short. If the wavelength is short, then the scattering will
be long.
     Of all lights we can see red has the longest wavelength, so the scattering is the weakest. That means
the red light travels far. In fact, it travels farther on rainy days.
     Using the red light can help drivers in farther areas sec the lights. It helps drivers stow down or stop
in lime. If drivers don"t see the red light until they are close, they may not be able to stop the car in time.
An accident may happen Red can also excite people. We can act more quickly when we see the color red.
In a word, red lights help drivers stop in time and help prevent accidents. 1. When the traffic lights turn ______, we will stop driving a car.A. red
B. green
C. yellow 2. According to the passage, the scattering of the red light is the _______. A. longest

阅读理解。     Many textbooks are not written in the kind of English that we speak every day. In fact,sometimes the
reading is so difficult that it almost seems like a foreign language. In a way, it is the language of science.
You should not expect to be able to read a difficult science passage the same way you read an interesting story;
you should not expect to read it easily and all at once. Instead, you may have to read it several times through,
catching on the meaning of difficult words,going back over difficult sentences, and finally putting the whole
thing together.  Do not be discouraged if the whole passage doesn"t make sense to you at first. You need to
pick it apart patiently until you can understand it.
       These are the steps to follow when you are reading something difficult;
☆1. Start to read normally until you run into a sentence that doesn"t make sense to you.
☆2. When a sentence doesn"t make sense,go back and read it again more slowly.
☆3. Look for any words you don"t know in the sentence. Try to understand their meanings using word parts
and context clues (上下文线索) . If necessary,  look them up in the dictionary.
☆4. Look at the next few sentences to see if they explain more about the sentence you are working on. Do
not read very much farther ahead until you understand what is being said.
☆5. Finally, read the sentence again. Try to put it into simpler words.
☆6. Read through the passage once. Try to understand all the hard parts well.  Then read the whole passage
once more at a usual speed.  This helps you to put all ideas together.
      The steps sound a lot harder than they are. It is really just the normal way good readers understand
anything that is difricult to read. After you have done the best you  can this way,you should always feel free
to ask for help from your teacher,if you have one.1. The underlined phrase "run into" means____.                A. work out
B. come across
C. look into
D. pass by 2. From the passage, we can know___.        A. we should look up new words before reading
B. it is sometimes difficult to read a science passage
C. the six steps are helpful in learning spoken English
D. interesting stories help readers to improve their English3. The passage is mainly about____.                 A. steps of studying science
B. difficulties in reading science
C. ways of reading science passages
D. researches on science and English

阅读理解。     In the West. some people believe that personality can be predicted according to the time of the year the
person was born.  From China comes the belief that the year of birth influences one"s personality. In the past
century, a new belief has arisen: the idea that personality is related to one"s ABO blood type. People with blood
type A, for example, are considered more likely to be serious, hard-working, and quiet, while people with blood
type O are likely to be popular and outgoing, yet often unable to finish what they start.  Though this belief
continues to be strong, some people question whether it is true.
     The blood-type personality theory (理论)  started in Japan in 1927 when Fu- rukawa Takeji noticed
personality similarities and differences among his workers. The idea soon went out of fashion, but was
brought back by a Japanese television host named Toshitaka Nomi in the 1970s.  The belief is still strong in
Japan and is increas- ingly popular in neighboring countries.  Some young Koreans have taken to the theory.
A recent study showed 76 percent of Koreans aged between 13 and 64 believing in the blood-type personality
connection. Though most Asians might believe in the blood-type theory, for many it seems harmless and not
something to be taken too seriously.
      There is also the possibility that people are influenced to change their personality to match the expected
stereotypes (思维定式). A survey of studies made in Japan over a 10-year period found that while in the 1970s
there was no relationship between blood types and personality, later studies in the 1980s found that the
relationship increased a little.  Researchers concluded that as the belief in the stereotypes increases, people
may be changing their personality to follow the blood-type theory.
       Is the belief true? The scientists in Asia largely dismiss the belief as a modem day superstition (迷信).
Most studies have failed to find any strong connection between blood and personality. Generally, scientists
warn against making predictions or important decisions based on this questionable theory.1. The writer uses blood type A and O as an example to explain ____.     A. the difference between the two blood types
B. the relationship between the two blood types
C. the influence of blood types on one"s behaviour
D. the connection between personality and blood types2. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean?        A. It was lightly believed.
B. It was brought to them.
C. They liked and accepted it:
D. They stole the idea from others.3. Which of the following is true according to the passage?       A. Most scientists in Asia don"t believe in the theory.
B. The blood-type theory began in Japan in the 1970s.
C. The blood-type personality theory is about blood types.
D. People don"t change their personality to match the theory. 4. What is the best title for the passage?         A. Is the blood-type theory popular?
B. Is the personality changeable?
C. Is it in your blood?
D. Is it in your mind?
