阅读短文,选择正确答案。    Elephants are interesting animals with large ears, a long trunk, and short legs. They use their legs to stand and
walk. Unlike (不像) lions and tigers, an elephant cannot use its legs to jump or run fast. But elephants do have
something that most animals do not have — a trunk!
    It is difficult for an elephant to bend (弯曲) down to reach food on the ground because of its short, fat legs.
That is why an elephant has a trunk. It uses its trunk to reach food it needs. Without its trunk, an elephant would
be helpless.
    An elephant uses its trunk as a monkey might use its arms and hands. The elephant can scratch (抓) an itch
(痒), pick up a small peanut (坚果) or a piece of popcorn (爆米花), and touch objects with its trunk. An
elephant"s trunk can even wrap (裹) around a tree and pull it out of the ground. An elephant"s trunk also helps it
drink water. An elephant can drink as much as 50 gallons (加仑) of water into its trunk. Then the elephant
squirts (喷出) the water into its mouth and down its throat (喉咙). An elephant"s trunk is very useful! 1. In paragraph 2, helpless means _______. [     ]
A. without help
B. with help
C. trying to help
D. full of help 2. What is one way that the elephant"s trunk is like a monkey"s hands? [     ]
A. Both have fingers (手指).
B. Both squirt water.
C. Both can hold food.
D. Both have fingernails (指甲). 3. This story mostly tells the reader that elephants ________. [     ]
A. use their short legs to find food
B. are stronger than most animals
C. drink water once a day
D. would be helpless without a trunk

    Scientists (科学家) think that many animals cannot see colours. The world is black and white to them.
Scientists want to find out if (是否) dogs can see colours. When the scientists give the dogs food, they show
them a certain colour every time. The dogs get ready to eat when they see this colour. The scientists then show
the dogs another colour. Again the dogs get ready to eat. The colours are all the same to them.

     During the day we work and play; at night we sleep. Our bodies rest while we sleep. In the morning we
are ready to work and play again. While we are asleep, our bodies grow most. Children who are tired usually
need more sleep. We can get our lessons better and we feel better too, when we have had plenty of rest. Boys
and girls who are eight or nine years old need ten hours of sleep every night. Our bodies need plenty of air
when we sleep. If we do not get enough fresh (新鲜的) air we"ll feel tired when we wake up. While in bed
we must not cover our heads. If we do, our lungs (肺) will not get enough fresh air. If we open our windows
at night we can have plenty of fresh air. Cool air is better than warm air. Boys and girls who want to grow and

      Skin-diving is a new sport today.
      This sport takes you into a wonderful new world. It is like a visit to the moon! When you are under water,
it is easy for you to climb big rocks, because you are no longer heavy. 
      Here, under water, everything is blue and green. During the day, there is enough light. When fish swim near
by(附近), you can catch them with your hands. When you have tanks (罐子) of air on your back, you can stay
in deep water for a long time. But you must be careful. 
      To catch the fish is one of the most interesting parts of this sport. On the other hand, you can clean the
ships without taking them out of the water. You can get many things from the deep sea.
