One day Frank was walking with his mother when they came to a pretty garden. Frank looked
in, and saw that it had clean gravel (碎石) walks and beautiful flowers. He called to his mother
and said, “Mum, come and look at this pretty garden. I wish I might open the gate, and walk in．”
The gardener (园丁) heard what Frank said, and kindly invited him and his mother to come into
the garden．
Frank’s mother thanked the man．Then she said to her son, “Frank, if I take you to walk in this
garden, you must take care not to meddle (乱动) with anything in it.” Frank walked along the tidy
gravel walks, and looked at everything, but touched nothing that he saw. He did not step on any of
the borders（草坪边的狭长花坛），and was careful that his clothes should not brush the tops of the
flowers so that he might not break them．The gardener was much pleased（满意的）with Frank, because he was so careful to behave
well．He showed him the seeds, and told him the name of many of the flowers and plants．
While Frank was admiring the beauty of a flower, a little boy came to the gate, and finding it
locked, he shook it hard．But it would not open．Then he said, “Let me in．Let me in．Will you not
let me in this garden?”
“No,” said the gardener, “I will not let you in, Tom．When I let you in yesterday you meddled
with my flowers, and pulled some of my fruit. I do not choose to let a boy into my garden who
meddles with the plants. ”
Tom looked ashamed, and when he found that the gardener would not let him in, he went away
slowly. Frank saw and felt how much happier a boy may be by not meddling with what does not
belong to him．
He and his mother then continued their walk in the garden, and enjoyed the day very much.
Before they left, the gardener gave each of them some pretty flowers．
41. Frank couldn't see ____ in the garden．

Next time you’re in a public place, take a look around you, and count how many people are usi
ng their phones. I can tell you that it is probably more than half, whether you’re in a
bus, in a café or simply walking down the street.
I’m not saying that I am not an example of this, but I wonder how people can spend so much
time on their phones without actually talking to anyone in particular. We can now do almost
anything with a phone. But has it gone too far? We spend too much time on our
mobiles but not enough time talking to people in real life.
Last time I visited London, I traveled by subway. I noticed that almost everybody else
was on their phones except those who were asleep. People were playing games, reading
articles and listening to music.
Recently, my smart phone broke and I had to use an old basic phone just to keep in touch with
my family and friends. I could only send text messages, make calls and play one game with it. And
I loved it. I loved being free from the Internet, and I really didn’t mind what my friends were doing
or what the latest news was. I could enjoy my time watching the
people around me and seeing what was going on.
However, I knew that as soon as I got my smart phone back, I would be one of
those people once again.46. The writer finds that _________ people are using their phones in public places.
A. most B. few C. half D. all
47. Which of the following cannot be done on a phone?
A. Playing games. B. Sending text messages.
C. Listening to music. D. Having meals.
48. The writer could use his old basic phone to __________.
A. surf the Internet B. watch the people around him
C. play one game D. look through the latest news
49. What didn’t the writer see on the subway when he visited London?
A. People were sleeping. B. People were talking with each other.
C. People were playing games. D. People were using their phones.
50. From this article, we know that __________.
A. everybody was on their phones when the writer traveled in London by subway
B. most people spend enough time talking to people in real life
C. the writer enjoyed his time without his smart phone
D. the writer won’t use his smart phone any more
D
There are many colors in nature．But do you think that a color has weight? I think you'll say
“no”. But I'm afraid you are wrong. If you don't believe it, you may do a small experiment (实验)．
First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes．Then cover the boxes. Third,
wrap(色裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other one with a white piece of paper. OK．Now
hold the boxes with your hand one by one．It is certain that you will think the red one is a little
heavier．
Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weights in man's
mind. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind．
The scientist told us that colors also have smell．Can you smell the color? Of course not．Then
why did the scientist say so. That is because every color stands for (代表) a kind of light with a
certain wavelength (波长)．It reaches our brain through sense organs.
According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse
the colors they hate．So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like．Or you'll
be nervous or even get ill． For example, you like blue and hate red．If you stay in a room with red
windows, wallpaper and furniture for two hours, you'll feel you have been there for four hours．But
if the room is blue, you'll feel you have been there for only an hour. And, if a person walks out of a
blue room and into a red room, his temperature will rise．
That means our body temperature will change with different colors．
51．From the experiment, we know that_________．
A．the two boxes have the same weight
B．colors can change the weight of an object
C．the red paper is heavier than the white paper
D．colors have different weights in people's mind
52．From the fourth paragraph, we can infer ____．
A．the smell of colors is changeable（可变的）
B．people can sense the light from colors
C．people can smell the colors through the nose
D．all the colors have the same smell for the blind
53．Which of the following is true? ____．
A．White color is heavier than red colorB．People may get ill if they refuse the colors they don't like
C．People can stay longer in red rooms than in blue rooms
D．People's body temperature will change with different colors
54．We can infer from the last paragraph that____．
A．red color is bad for our health
B．people may get nervous in a red room
C．blue color can raise（提升）our body temperature
D．colors can influence our mood（情绪）and health
55．The passage is probably ____．
A．a short novel B．a news report
C．a science report D．an advertisement

Long long ago there was a lovely field garden and there was a very thick tree in it.
Both the vegetables and the tree (61)________(make) the garden beautiful. The garden’s
owner was very proud of this. But no one knew that the vegetables and the tree couldn’t

sun, but you (63)_______(drink) too much water in return. If I don’t give you my shadow,
you (64)________(dry) up!”
One day, the vegetables decided to use up all the water in the ground so that the tree
would dry up. The tree answered back by (65) ____(refuse) to give the vegetables shadow
from the hot sun, so they both began to dry up. Before long, the vegetables were really
thin and the tree’s branches were drying up. “You (66)______already _______(drink) too
much water.” The farmer got angry with the vegetables and stopped watering them. When
he did that, both the tree and the vegetables really learned what thirst was. There seemed
(67)________(be) no way to work out the problem, but one of the vegetables, a small
tomato, understood what (68)________(happen), and decided to deal with it. With the little
water and under the hot sunshine, the little tomato did all he (69) _______(do) to grow,grow …..
He managed to grow so big that the farmer (70) _______(shock) and started watering
the field again. Then the vegetables and the tree realized that it was better to help each
other than to fight. So they decided to work together and help each other instead of
fighting, using both the shadow and the water in the best combination to grow good
vegetables. Seeing how well they were doing, the farmer now gave the best of care to his
vegetable field, watering it better than any other field.

Fire was discovered many thousands of years ago. The first time humans
saw fire was probably when a tree was destroyed by lightning (闪电).
Humans soon learned how to make fire. They probably made the first fir
e by rubbing (摩擦) two sticks together.
Fire was very important to humans. They needed to keep warm at night. They used fire to cook
food. 83 They used fire to keep enemies and wild animals away . In some parts of the world fire
was used to send messages. The Indians in America, for example, used fire to make smoke as a
message. In some other countries people lit fires to warn their friends of danger.
84 Fir e wa s als o use d t o giv e ligh t. Before the invention of the oil lamp(灯), humans burned sticks to get light.
One man even used fire to tell the time. He invented a candle clock.
He made a candle that
took exactly twelve hours to burn. Then he marked this candle in twelve eq

the candle and could tell the time by counting the number of parts left of th

There are many things that you should be careful with when you are alone at home. Listen to the

Keep the door locked when you are alone at home. Many people think it’s the best way to protect

Keep a list of phone numbers to call for help—such as 110, the police station or a neighbor’s
number.
Be careful with the electrical appliances. If you don’t know how to use them, ask your parents.
Make a safety check before going to sleep.
Look through the keyhole when you hear the doorbell. If there are strangers, ask“Who’s that?”
with the door locked and say“come back later.” Don’t tell them that your parents are away. Say
“Mum’s having a shower.” or “Dad’s having a sleep.”
