The Atlantic asked 30,000 people this question.Among the people surveyed,52 percent said tennis balls are green,42 percent said yellow,and 6 percent said something else. According to the International Tennis Federation,tennis balls are yellow.So,why do most people say that they're green? When we first see an object in natural light,our brains recognize its true color.Even if the object is seen in different kinds of light later,our brains can still tell its true color.Scien- tists call this color constancy(色彩恒常性).For example,we know that China's flag is red. When we see it during sunset or under purple light,we still know that it is red,even if it looks 八年级英语试卷第4页（共8页） like a different color. However,the color of a tennis ball is not as pure as the flag.It appears to be a combina- tion(s结合)of yellow,a“wam”color,and green,a“cool”color.The US-based magazine says that when our brains try to figure out what color the ball is,some people ignore() cool colors like green,blue and purple.So they see the ball as yellow.Others ignore warm colors,such as red,yellow and orange.They see the ball as green.They have different opinions based on whether they ignore cool or warm colors. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 31.How many people said tennis balls are yellow according to the survey? A.30,000. B.15,600. C.12,600 D.1800. 32.What color is the tennis ball according to the Intemational Tennis Federation? A.Yellow. B.Green. C.White. D.Blue. 33.What can our brain tell with color constancy? A.It can tell the objects'difference in different kinds of light. B.It can tell the true color of things in different lights. C.It can tell the truth of the colors under purple light D.It can tell people what color the flag is. 34.What does the underlined word "it"in Paragraph 4 refer to? A.Color constancy. B.China's flag. C.Sunset. D.Purple light. 35.What can we learn from the text? A.Colors always confuse people. B.People sometimes give some strange answers. C.People may ignore either cool colors or warm colors. D.Colors are seen the same by different people under different kinds of light. As a doctor,I believe listening is good medicine.It was Sunday.I had the last patient to see.I got into her room.She was an old woman.When I came in,she was trying to put on her socks.36 I didn't agree at first.Usually I asked my patient something like this,"How are you feel- ing?What's the matter with you?"
