They named the dinosaur Caihong, the Mandarin word for rainbow (彩虹). They found the nearly complete fossil (化石) in Hebei Province. The fossil shows that the dinosaur had wide, shiny feathers. They almost covered its head and body. The colors of those feathers would appear to change with the light. The colorful dinosaur lived 161 million years ago during the Jurassic Period of earth’s history (地球侏罗纪时期). The Caihong fossil also shows that it had feathers similar to that of a modern day hummingbird (蜂鸟). Much of Caihong’s body had dark feathers. The shiny, color-changing feathers covered its head and neck. The dinosaur had many bird-like qualities. But scientists think that it could not fly. Maybe its feathers were used to draw the attention of its “girlfriend”. They were used to keep warm, too. Caihong had two legs, a long tail and a long head with sharp teeth. It ate other smaller animals for food. Xing Xu, a Chinese scientist, said to the reporter, “It is very similar to some early birds such as Archaeopteryx (始祖鸟).” Archacopteryx is the earliest known bird. It is believed to have lived 150 million years ago. 31. When and where was the Caihong fossil discovered? A. In 2018, Hubei Province. B. 161 million years ago China. C. In 2018, Hebei Province. D. 150 million years ago, America. 32. The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________. A. birds B. scientists C. heads D. feathers 33. Which words can best describe Caihong? A. color-changing, relaxing B. colorful, bird-like C. earliest, brave D. similar, serious 34. The dinosaur used its feathers to ________. ①draw the attention of its “girlfriend” ②keep it warm ③be like rainbow ④not go hungry A. ①② B. ②③ C. ③④ D. ①④ 35. We can read this passage in the ________ part of the newspaper. A. sports B. health C. science D. art 【答案】31. C 32. D 33. B 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了在中国发现的一种小型的类鸟恐龙，它有着不同寻常的彩色羽毛。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In 2018 scientists said that they first discovered a small, bird-like dinosaur (恐龙) from China which had unusual colorful feathers (羽毛). They named the dinosaur Caihong, the Mandarin word for rainbow (彩虹). They found the nearly complete fossil (化石) in Hebei Province.”可知，名为“彩虹”的恐龙的化石于2018年在河北省被发现。故选C。 【32题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“The fossil shows that the dinosaur had wide, shiny feathers. They almost covered its head and body.”可知，化石表明这种恐龙有宽而闪亮的羽毛，它们几乎覆盖了恐龙的头和身。可以推测“它们”指的是羽毛。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The shiny, color-changing feathers covered its head and neck. The dinosaur had many bird-like qualities.”可知，“彩虹”这种恐龙有着变色羽毛，且有许多像鸟的特征。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But scientists think that it could not fly. Maybe its feathers were used to draw the attention of its “girlfriend”. They were used to keep warm, too.”可知，恐龙用这种羽毛来吸引异性和保暖。故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容和“In 2018 scientists said that they first discovered a small, bird-like dinosaur (恐龙) from China which had unusual colorful feathers (羽毛).”可知，本文主要介绍了2018年新发现的恐龙化石，这跟“科学”有关。故选C。 D 阅读下面的短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格，每空不超过2个词。 People drink tea.

They named the dinosaur Caihong, the Mandarin word for rainbow (彩虹). They found the nearly complete fossil (化石) in Hebei Province. The fossil shows that the dinosaur had wide, shiny feathers. They almost covered its head and body. The colors of those feathers would appear to change with the light. The colorful dinosaur lived 161 million years ago during the Jurassic Period of earth’s history (地球侏罗纪时期). The Caihong fossil also shows that it had feathers similar to that of a modern day hummingbird (蜂鸟). Much of Caihong’s body had dark feathers. The shiny, color-changing feathers covered its head and neck. The dinosaur had many bird-like qualities. But scientists think that it could not fly. Maybe its feathers were used to draw the attention of its “girlfriend”. They were used to keep warm, too. Caihong had two legs, a long tail and a long head with sharp teeth. It ate other smaller animals for food. Xing Xu, a Chinese scientist, said to the reporter, “It is very similar to some early birds such as Archaeopteryx (始祖鸟).” Archacopteryx is the earliest known bird. It is believed to have lived 150 million years ago. 31. When and where was the Caihong fossil discovered? A. In 2018, Hubei Province. B. 161 million years ago, China. C. In 2018, Hebei Province. D. 150 million years ago, America. 32. The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________. A. birds B. scientists C. heads D. feathers 33. Which words can best describe Caihong?

The dinosaur used its feathers to ________. ①draw the attention of its “girlfriend” ②keep it warm ③be like rainbow ④not go hungry A. ①② B. ②③ C. ③④ D. ①④ 35.
