Using just a few simple everyday things， you can find out how rainbows work while enjoying a creative hands-on activity that’s perfect for kids. The experiment will help bring the exciting world of science to life. 一 二 三 四 五 六 What you’ll need · A glass of water（about three quarters full） · A piece of white paper · A sunny day Instructions · Take the glass of water and the paper to a part of the room with sunlight（better near a window）. What’s happening？ · While you usually see a rainbow in the sky， it can also appear in other situations. You may have seen a rainbow in a water fountain（喷泉） or in the middle of a waterfall and you can even make your own in this experiment. 一 二 三 四 五 六 · Hold the glass of water above the paper and watch as sunlight passes through the glass of water. The sunlight is refracted（使光线折射） and forms a rainbow of colours on your piece of paper. · Try holding the glass of water at different heights and angles to see what may happen. · Rainbows form in the sky when the sunlight is refracted as it passes through raindrops： it acts in the same way when it passes through a glass of water. The sunlight is refracted， so you can see colours like red， orange， yellow， green， blue， indigo and violet. 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　A　）31. What’s the experiment about？ A. It’s about physics. B. It’s about chemistry. C. It’s about society. D. It’s about the environment. （　D　）32. What should we do to make a rainbow？ A. Start the experiment at late night. B. Hold the glass of water at the same height. C. Put the paper above the glass of water. D. Put the paper under the glass of water. A D 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　C　）33. According to the passage， we can see a rainbow in   　　　　situations. A. two B. three C. four D. five C 一 二 三 四 五 六 B（2023·宿迁市宿豫区期中改编） There is a place in the world where there is fresh green grass and hundreds of wild flowers with water running into little pools and birds making their homes in boxes. That is Augustenborg Botanical Roof Garden. The 9，500-square-metre Augustenborg Botanical Roof Garden may look just like any other well-organized park， but there’s a difference. It lies on the roofs of industrial and office buildings in the city of Malmo in Sweden. 一 二 三 四 五 六 Green roofs are not a new invention. And now they are getting popular again. The common roofs of a modern city have endless black surfaces（表 面） with no life or water. Perhaps that’s why a garden on a roof becomes such a perfect choice for more people. Green roofs are not just pretty. They also help to moderate the city temperature. The high temperatures on common roofs in summer can make top floor flats uncomfortably hot. What is more， they play a part in making the cities hotter than the countryside around them， causing the “urban heat-island effect”. On a green roof， however， with its plants and water， temperatures change only a little， as they do in a park. This can greatly cut the costs of heating and cooling in the building below. 一 二 三 四 五 六 Also， a green roof takes in rainwater， and protects the city drainage system（排水系统）.  　　　　And small animals and birds can make their homes on it. Thanks to this， the city may become part of nature， rather than something completely separate from it. While the cost of building such a roof can still be higher， it can be lower in the long term as a result of energy savings. And wouldn’t it be wonderful to be able to walk out into a garden high above the city’s noise and traffic， whether you’re at school， in an office or just at home in a ten-floor block？ 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　A　）34. With the example of Augustenborg Botanical Roof Garden， the writer wants to explain  　　　　. A. what a green roof is like B. how wildlife is protected C. what to do with a spare roof D. how to organize a good park （　C　）35. The underlined word “moderate” in Paragraph 3 probably means “ 　　　　”. A. raise B. check C. control D. record A C 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　B　）36. Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4？ A. A common roof is noisy. B. A green roof is alive. C. A green roof stops pollution. D. A common roof increases the cost. B 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　C　）37. The purpose of the passage is to  　　　　. A. introduce the change of green roofs B. solve the problems with green roofs C. show the advantages of green roofs D. show the disadvantages（缺点） of green roofs C 一 二 三 四 五 六 C Human activities are changing the surface and temperature of our planet. But new research shows that it is also changing the sound of oceans and seas. Scientists say that these changes affect（影响） many sea animals—from very small fish to huge whales. Sound travels very far underwater. For fish， sound is a better way to sense their environment than light. They use sounds to communicate with each other. Sounds also help some ocean animals find food and avoid their hunters. Sounds help fish and other sea animals survive（生存）. 一 二 三 四 五 六 However， increased noise from humans is making it harder for these animals to hear each other. The noise comes from shipping traffic， underwater oil and gas exploration， and other noisy human activities. For many sea animals， their efforts to communicate are being masked（被掩 盖） by sounds that humans have introduced. Experts explain the term masking， which happens when one or more noises in the water block sound important to an ocean animal’s life. 一 二 三 四 五 六 The Red Sea is one of the world’s most important shipping passages. It is full of large ships travelling to Asia， Europe， and Africa. Some fish and other animals now avoid the noisiest areas. Also， the overall number of sea animals has gone down by about half since 1970. In some parts of the ocean， scientists now record fewer animals singing and calling than in the past. Experts say that effects of noise on sea animals are not well understood. However， some studies suggest that noise may cause hearing loss. The stress from human noise might also affect the immune（免疫） system—an animal’s natural defense system. Many sea animals are showing higher levels of stress because of noise. 一 二 三 四 五 六 When people think of threats（威胁） to the ocean， we often think of climate change， plastics， and overfishing. But noise pollution is another necessary thing we need to be monitoring. When it comes to something humans can do for the ocean， we need to think about how to make it quieter. Noise pollution may be easier to deal with than any other ocean threat. You can reduce or turn off sound immediately. It’s not like plastics or climate change， which are much harder to undo. 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　A　）38. According to the passage， sounds can help sea animals in many ways except  　　　　. A. blocking the sunshine out B. searching for something to eat C. getting away from their hunters D. communicating with each other A 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　A　）39. What can you know from the passage？ A. Noise does more harm to sea animals than humans realize. B. Plastic pollution is the biggest threat to oceans and seas. C. Fish sense their environment better through light than sound. D. The Red Sea is one of the most popular fishing areas in the world. （　C　）40. The underlined words “to undo” in Paragraph 6 probably mean “ 　　　　”. A. to gain the efforts B. to promise the results C. to cancel the effects D. to forget the influences A C 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　C　）41. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage？ A. Why are ocean animals so noisy？ B. Helpful ways to save ocean animals C. Humans are making oceans too noisy D. Which threat to oceans is the biggest？ C 一 二 三 四 五 六 D Dr Dolittle lived in a small town called Puddleby. Everyone in the town knew him. The dogs and children ran after him. He lived in a small house， but he had a large garden. He kept many animals in his garden. His favourite animals were Dab-Dab the duck， Jip the dog， Gub-Gub the baby pig and Polynesia the parrot. He also kept some fish， rabbits， cats， a squirrel， a cow and a baby cow， a horse， chickens and so on. 一 二 三 四 五 六 Dr Dolittle didn’t have many patients. Most people didn’t like all of his animals， so when they were ill， they went to a doctor in another town. “But you don’t have any money，” his sister told him. “You need patients.” “I have a patient，” Dr Dolittle answered. “The Cat’s-meat-Man. He’s the man who sells me meat for the cat.” “He doesn’t pay you enough to live on，” his sister told him. “Then I’ll sell everything I have，” he said. 一 二 三 四 五 六 And he did. He sold most of his furniture. He also sold most of his clothes. Then he had enough money to buy food for himself and his animals. One day， the Cat’s-meat-Man said to him， “Why don’t you stop being a doctor for people and become a doctor for animals instead？ I’m sure that you know a lot about animals—more than most vets. You wrote a wonderful book about cats. I’d send all the people with sick dogs or cats to you.” 一 二 三 四 五 六 When the Cat’s-meat-Man left， Polynesia， the parrot， flew onto the table. “He’s right， Doctor，” Polynesia said. “You should become an animal doctor.” “There are a lot of vets，” Dr Dolittle said. “Perhaps there are a lot of vets. But you’d be the best vet of all. I’m not the only animal that can talk. All the animals can talk. Each kind of animal has its own language. I’ll teach you mine if you like.” 一 二 三 四 五 六 “Yes， please，” Dr Dolittle said. He opened a drawer and took out a notebook and pencil. “Will you teach me the parrots’ ABC first？” he asked. Polynesia agreed to teach Dr Dolittle the parrots’ language. Later that day， Jip came into the room. Polynesia said， “He’s talking to you， Doctor.” “I don’t think he is，” Dr Dolittle said. “He’s just scratching（挠） himself.” 一 二 三 四 五 六 “Dogs talk with their ears， their noses， and their tails，” Polynesia told him. They don’t always make a noise. Do you see how he is moving his nose now？” “Yes.” “He is telling us that it has stopped raining， and he wants to ask you a question.” Every day， Dr Dolittle learned the languages of the animals. When people found out he was now an animal doctor， they brought their sick pets to him. 一 二 三 四 五 六 One day， a horse said to him， “You’re a much better animal doctor than the vet. You knew I couldn’t see well， and you made glasses for me.” The horse was very pleased. He could see very well. He told all his friends how clever Dr Dolittle was， and they told all their friends. Soon， many animals came to see him. He had a different door for each animal， and he wrote the name of each kind of animal above each door. HORSES， COWS ... Before long， every animal that lived in or near the town became the doctor’s patient. He was very happy， and he liked his life very much. —Adapted from The Story of Dr Dolittle 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　A　）42.
