Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is the color of most growing plants, too.
Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet finished or plants that are not ripe.
For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation. In the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns had not yet developed. A century or so later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in war (戰(zhàn)爭). By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today--a person who is new in a job.
About one hundred years ago, greenhorn was a popular expression in the American west. Old-timers used it to describe a man who had just arrived from one of the big cities in the east. The greenhorn didn’t have the skills that he would need to live in the hard, rough country.
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from the early nineteen hundreds.
A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.
The Green Revolution (革命) is the name which was given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural (農(nóng)業(yè)的) scientists who had green thumbs.
小題1:According to the passage, a greenhorn means________ now.
A.a(chǎn) young cow or ox whose horns have not yet developed
B.a(chǎn) soldier who has not had any experience in war
C.a(chǎn) person who is new in a job
D.a(chǎn) man who doesn’t have the skills to live in the country
小題2:The meaning of the underlined word “ripe” in the second paragraph is ________.
A.未完成的B.成熟的C.青澀的D.老練的
小題3:Which of the following about the Green Revolution is NOT right?
A.If there weren’t the Green Revolution, we would have no rice to eat.
B.The expression “the Green Revolution” appeared several years ago.
C.Because of the Green Revolution, we have more kinds of rice and other grains.
D.Agricultural scientists with green thumbs started the Green Revolution.
小題4:We can know from the passage that _______.
A.a(chǎn)ll growing plants is green
B.green is the most important color in nature
C.a(chǎn) person with a green thumb can make plants grow well
D.the expression “a green thumb” has a history of two hundred years
小題5:The main idea of the passage is ________.
A.a(chǎn) greenhornB.a(chǎn) green thumb
C.the Green RevolutionD.the word “green” and its story

“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it!”That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth* and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it. With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins*  in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.

There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them!

“How are you?”is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the USA greet each other. But “How are you?”is also a very unusually question. It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you ?”isn’t really a question and “Fine.”isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello.”or “Hi.”Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong.”But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.”It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone. People also don’t exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say “I’ve to go now.”O(jiān)ften, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse,“Someone’s at the door.”“Something is burning on the stove.”The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hand up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person. Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly that they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language.
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷下列句子正(T)誤(F).(5分)
小題1:“How are you?”is another way of saying “Hello.”or“Hi.”
小題2: It is polite to say “No. I disagree. I think you are wrong.”if you don’t agree with others.
小題3:When someone says“I have to go now.”on the phone, it means he wants to go on talking.
小題4:“Someone is at the door.”may be an excuse for finishing a phone call.
小題5:Sometimes people don’t say exactly what they are thinking about just because they try to be nice to each other.
