If you say “no”, you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do an experiment.‎ First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes. Third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other woth a white piece of paper. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you think the red one is a little heavier.‎ Why? A scientist found that different colours have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he found that every colour has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.‎ The scientist told us that colours also have smell. Can you smell the colour? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every colour stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength, and it reaches our brain through sense organs.‎ According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colours they like, and refuse the colours they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers 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. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his tempertature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colours.‎ ‎( ) 31. Paragraph 1-3 tell us that ___________.‎ A. the two boxes have the same weight B. colours can change the weight of an object C. the red paper is heavier than the white paper ‎ D. colours have different weight in people’s mind ‎( ) 32. Why did the scientist think that colours have smell?‎ A. Because we can smell colours with our nose.‎ B. Because every colour has its own sweet smell.‎ C. Because people can sense the light from colours D. Because every colour can give off light of the same length.‎ ‎( ) 33. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?‎ A. People may get ill if they refuse the colours they don’t like.‎ B. People can stay longer in blue rooms than in red rooms.‎ C. In people’s mind, red colour is heavier than white colour.‎ D. People’s body temperature will change with different colours.‎ ‎( ) 34. What is the Chinese meaning of the underlined word “wavelength”?‎ A. 波浪 B. 色彩 C. 频率 D. 波长 ‎( ) 35. The passage is probably _________.‎ A. a short novel B. a news report C. a science report D. an advertisement B Captain Nemo seemed very sure that that savages could not harm us. I slept well. When I went outside the next morning, I saw that there were many more natives on the beach. It was low tide, and many of them had come quite close to the Nautilus. I asked Conseil to get a net, and we used it to get some shells from the water. They were very pretty shells. Suddenly, I saw a very rare and beautiful shell. We looked at it together. One of the savages threw a stone at us and broke the shell. Conseil was very angry. He fired his gun at the savage. Then, we noticed that the savages had come very close to the Nautilus in their canoes. A few moments later, they began to shoot their arrows at us. We went inside and told Captain Nemo about it. He ordered his men to close the doors.‎ ‎“But what will happen tomorrow?” I asked. “You will have to open the doors to get more air, and the savages will come in.”‎ ‎“Do you think they will dare?”‎ ‎“I am sure they will.”‎ ‎“We have nothing to fear,” he said again.‎ Captain Nemo asked me about our trip to the island. I told him what we had seen and done. We talked about another French sailor called D’Urville, whose ship was wrecked in the Torres Strait. He told me again that the high tide the next day would lift the Nautilus off the reef.（选自《海底两万里》）‎ ‎( ) 36. The word “savages” may have the similar meaning to _______ in this passage.‎ A. natives B. shells C. Nautilus D. canoes ‎( ) 37. Conseil and I tried to get some shells with a(n) _______.‎ A. gun B. arrow C. net D. ship ‎( ) 38.

The story happened when the Nautilus ________.‎ A. was flying over the Torres Strait B. was running in the ocean C. was kept on the reef D. was with D’Urville C We walked all afternoon with Infadoos and Scragga. Their men walked about a hundred metres ahead of us.‎ ‎“When did your people, the Kukuana, come to this place?”‎ ‎“They came from the north many thousands of moons ago,” Infadoos explained. “When they reached the mountains, they could go no farther. They stayed here where the land is good and there is water.”‎ ‎“Do you live here in peace?” I asked.‎ ‎“There have been two wars. Once an army came down from the north, but we killed most of them. Soon after that, we fought among ourselves.” He said, “The king at that time had two sons—twins. When he died, both young men wanted to be king. One of the twins, Twala, killed the other and became king.”‎ ‎“Did the dead man have a wife and children?” I asked. I knew that if he did, the fighting could start again one day.‎ ‎“Yes. He had a wife, Imotu, and a son, Ignosi. They ran away.” He pointed to a village a ‎ short way ahead. “That is the village where Imotu and Ignosi first hid,” he said. “We shall stay there tonight..”‎ As soon as we were within a mile or so of the village, an army of men came out. As we passed them, they shouted a welcome.‎ Their women were in the village. They stopped whatever they were doing to watch us pass by, but they were not rude. As soon as we were comfortable in a hut, they came with milk, honey, and cooked food.‎ A young man brought a fat young ox which he killed and cut into pieces. We took a few pieces for ourselves and gave him the rest. We don’t want them to think we were selfish.（选自《所罗门王的宝藏》，有删节）‎ ‎( ) 41.

For over a hundred years, drivers have pushed their machines to the limit. Everyone in motor racing has a simple dream: to go faster!‎ In the early days, a small number of people raced each other driving unsafe machines on ordinary roads. Today, motor racing is a huge moneymaking industry. Thousands of people are involved. Drivers, mechanics, designers, engineers and technicians work hard in the search for extra speed.‎ Cars race along twisting roads or on round tracks. They race across ice and snow, as well as sandy deserts. Mud, dust, grass and steep hills are all part of today’s range of racing events. Hundreds of thousands of people turn up to watch races. Millions more people watch the events on television. Top drivers are celebrities and earn huge amounts of money.‎ Of course, these drivers don’t get to the top overnight. Everyone has to start somewhere. Most drivers learn to race in go-carts when they are young. All drivers must learn about their cars and their engines. They must also be familiar with race rules and what to do in an emergency. Formula Ford is one of the race classes for beginners. Many top Formula I world champions like Nigel Mansell, Michael Schumacher and Mika Hakkinen began by Formula Ford racing.‎ The Italian company Ferrari makes some of the world’s best racing cars, all painted in its world-famous red colour. Ferrari is the most successful builder of Formula 1 cars. Ferrari has also had some famous Formula 1 champions such as Michael Schumacher. Ferrari prides itself on building the whole machine—the body as well as the engine. Some companies, such as Honda, only make engines for Formula 1 racing.‎ Motor racing is expensive. Racing teams need huge amounts of money to keep their cars on the racetrack. Sponsorship is an important way of making money for racing teams. The logos of the sponsors are all over racing cars. The bigger the logo, the more the company will have to pay to the racing team.（选自《九年级下册初中英语读本》）‎ The Need for 46 ‎ Want to be a Formula 1 driver Motor racing have been with us for ‎47 a century.

The first spacecraft with a human on board blasted into space In 1961. since then, people have not only been travelling to space, but many of them have also lived there for extended periods.‎ Food All the meals on space stations are put together on Earth and sent to the space station, along with the astronauts, by space shuttle. Because the food has to last a long time (sometimes up to three months), a lot of it has to be preserved by dehydration or canning.‎ The space station does not have a freezer to preserve food, but It does have a cool room to keep fruit and vegetables fresh.‎ Astronauts also eat many other foods such as cereals, cereal bars, nuts and dried fruit that do not need any special preparation.‎ Eating Astronauts have a set timetable each day. This tells them when to do everything, including when to have their meals. At meal preparation time, they start getting their food ready, which often includes adding water to re-hydrate the dehydrated foods.‎ Without the help of gravity, sitting down to eat can be tricky. Astronauts sometimes have to strap themselves and their food into place. Because of lack of gravity, astronauts cannot use ground salt and pepper, and all drinks must be taken from bottles. They also have to be careful that crumbs do not fly off and get stuck in vents and instrument panels.（选自《九年级下册新理念英语阅读》）‎ ‎56. What does the space station have to keep fruit and vegetables fresh?
