About ten men in every hundred have the trouble of color blindness in some way. Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected(感染)in this matter. Perhaps, after all ,it is safer to be driven by a woman.
There are different kinds of color blindness. For example, a man cannot see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades (影子) of  green. Sometimes a person can’t tell the difference between blue and green. Only a few unlucky men may see everything in shades of green— a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a different thing to explain. In only one eye there are millions of very small things called “cones(錐狀細(xì)胞)” . These help us to see in the bright light and to tell differences between colors. These are also millions of “rods“(桿狀細(xì)胞),but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shapes but not colors.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue light will. Human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the help of the cones in our eyes, we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the help of the rods we can see shapes at night.
小題1:“Color blindness” means           in Chinese.
A. 盲目        B. 無色      C 色盲    D 討厭顏色
小題2: Some people say it’s safer to be driven by women because         .
A.women drive more carefully
B.women are better at driving than men
C.women can see things more clearly
D.there are fewer color — blind women
小題3:With the help of the “cones”, we can          .
A.tell different shapesB.kill insets
C.see in the darkD.tell orange from yellow
小題4: We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a           light.
A.redB.yellowC.blueD.green
小題5: Which of the following sentences about color blindness is TRUE?
A.None of men can see deep red.
B.Not all of men have the same problem in recognizing colors.
C.None of men can tell the difference between blue and green.
D.All of men see everything in shades of green.

小題1:C
小題2:D
小題3:D
小題4:C
小題5:B

試題分析:
小題1:根據(jù)詞的意思可知:color“顏色”,blindness“失明”,所以color blindness就是“色盲”的意思。
小題2:通過閱讀第一段,我們可知,婦女開車之所以更安全,是因?yàn)樗齻兒苌偈巧ぃ苋菀讌^(qū)分顏色,特別是交通燈。所以本題選D。
小題3:通過These help us to see in the bright light and to tell differences between colors.可知,“cones”能幫助我們分辨顏色,所以本題應(yīng)該選D“將黃色與橙色區(qū)分開”。
小題4:通過 Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue 可知,我們應(yīng)該利用蚊子喜歡藍(lán)色的特性,用藍(lán)光吸引蚊子,從而消滅文中。所以本題選C。
小題5:通過閱讀全文可知,ACD都太絕對,是錯誤的;而B的意思是“并非所有的男人在認(rèn)識顏色方面存在相同的問題!焙苊黠@是正確的。
點(diǎn)評:本文是有關(guān)色盲的文章。文章從什么是色盲,色盲的種類,色盲的原因以及動物的色盲等四個方面講述了色盲。完成本題時應(yīng)該熟讀短文,注意對色盲一些細(xì)節(jié)的描述,應(yīng)該根據(jù)已有的信息,加以合理的推測。還應(yīng)注意上下文之間的關(guān)系。

What would you do if a stranger gave you some medicine and it would keep you slim or help you do well in exams? Would you take it?
Students at Shenzhen Luohu Foreign Language Middle School have learned to keep themselves safe by saying “no”. In fact, what those strangers want to give them are drugs (毒品) . Drugs are dangerous to your health!
“Because teens don't know much about drugs, they might want to try them,” said Zhang Dongsheng, the director of Shenzhen Drug Control Office.
Now, many schools arrange courses or organize some activities to help students know about drugs.

In China, taking drugs is becoming a big problem for teens. According to a survey, about one million people in China were using illegal drugs last year, and 72% of them were young people. Worse still, there are about10,000 drug users under 16 now.

A big, mighty(高大的) tree stood in a forest. Its branches(樹枝) spread out and its roots (根) went deep in the earth. A lot of people came here to have a rest under it. And a lot of birds stood on its branches to sing and dance. The big tree was very proud all the time.
At the foot of the tree, there was a little plant. The plant was thin, and seemed to be blown down by any of a little wind.
One day, the two neighbors were having a little chat.
“Well, little one,” said the tree to the plant, “why not put your feet deeply in the earth, and raise your head high in the air as I do?”
“I see there is no need to do so,” said the plant with a smile. “In fact, I think I may be safer in this way.”
“Safer?” said the tree. “Are you safer than I am? Do you know how deep my roots are in the earth and how strong my branches are? Who can possibly pull me out by the roots or bow my head to the ground?” And the tree didn’t want to say anything to the weak plant.
But the tree was to regret its words very soon. One evening, a great hurricane(颶風(fēng)) came. It blew the trees off their roots and almost destroyed the forest completely. It uprooted(將……連根拔起)the mighty tree and blew it away with great force.

小題1:Who was the big tree’s neighbor?
A.People.B.Birds.C.A little plant.D.Branches.

C.Because a lot of birds stood on its branches to sing and dance.
D.All of the above.
小題3:Why didn’t the big tree want to say anything to the little plant?
A.Because the big tree was tired.
B.Because the little plant knew less than the big tree.

小題4:What did the villagers living nearby see after the hurricane had gone?

In the UK, most children have their lunches at school, but in some schools, parents can choose what their children eat. The children can have a school dinner-a hot, cooked meal; or they can take a packed(包裝的) lunch with them, which usually includes cold food like sandwiches.
Often parents know what their children want. Cath, a mother of three children, told us, “My children have packed lunches because they say they don’t like to have school dinners. So I make three packed lunches every morning.”
However, another mother, Susan, made a different choice. She said, “My daughters have a always had school dinners. I think they probably get healthier food at school than a few sandwiches I make for them.”
But how healthy are school dinners? Kaz, a father, thought poorly of them. He said, “Fizzy(起泡的) drinks were offered and I think there were a lot of chips.”
Jamie Oliver spent a year working in a school kitchen. He was worried about the unhealthy food which included burgers, pizzas and chips. So he tried to cook healthy food such as good stews and curries for the children instead.
So Jamie improved the school dinners, and trained the dinner ladies to cook healthy food in that school. Then he advised the government to improve school food across the country. And it seems that the changes have begun.
Anna, a pupil, told us, “We used to have a fast food window where you got chips and coke, but they stopped that this year. There’s a salad restaurant, which is good, so it’s healthier than it was.”
根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案,并將其標(biāo)號填入前括號內(nèi)。
