Zhang had to stay with them for about 10 years before he got away. When Zhang at last reached the Yue-chi in about 128 BC. he was disappointed to find that they didn't want to fight against the Xiongnu people.
On his return journey（旅程）, Zhang Qian and his men were again caught. It was not until 125 BC that they returned to China. Zhang didn't finish his job. but he learned a lot about the places, people, customs and cultures of the 36 kingdoms（王国）of Western Regions.
Han Wudi then sent Zhang to the west again. Zhang's journey to the west helped with international trade, especially in silk. between China and the West.

Passage 2
The idea that red means stop and green means go has influenced our lives in more ways than just traffic signals（信号）. We have been taught from a young age that the color red means danger and green means it's okay to move forward. But why were those colors chosen for traffic lights?
Well, it's important to know that before traffic lights for cars, there were traffic signals for trains. At first, railway companies used red to mean stop, white to mean go, and green to mean warn. As you could imagine, trains ran into a few problems with white meaning go. For example, one train mistook a bright star for a white light and something unexpected happened. Because of that, railway companies finally moved green meaning go and used yellow to mean warn. And it's been that way ever since.
Red has always been a color that mean danger, because it's the color with the longest wavelength（波长）so it can be seen somewhere farther than other colors.
But, believe it or not, yellow was once used to mean stop. Back in the 1900s, some stop signs were yellow because it was too hard to see a red sign in a poorly lit area. Finally, highly reflective materials（高反射材料）were developed and red stop signs were born. Since yellow can be seen well at all times of the day, school zones, some traffic signs, and school buses continue to be printed yellow.
So next time you are impatiently waiting at a traffic light, don't get so mad at them, they've certainly come a long way.
36. What were traffic signals for before traffic lights for cars?
A. Trains. B. Boats. C. Planes. D. Bicycles.
37. Which of the following colors meant go at first?
A. Red. B. Yellow. C. White. D. Green.
38. Why does red mean danger?
A. Because it's the brightest color. B. Because it can be seen far away.
C. Because railway companies say so. D. Because it has the shortest wavelength.
39. Why are school buses painted yellow?
A. Because yellow is a prettier color. B. Because yellow once meat danger.
C. Because yellow can be seen well in daytime. D. Because yellow means it's OK to go forward.
40. What docs the text mainly tell us?
A. How important traffic lights are. B. Which color has the longest wavelength.
C. What red, yellow and green can be used for. D. Why traffic lights are red, yellow and green.
Passage 3

Great Changes in My Growth
As time goes by, I am not the little kid any more. I am quite different from what I used to be.
In the past, I used to stay up late to play computer games every day. As a result, I was very short and thin. What was worse, I couldn’t listen to the teachers well in class the next day. I did so badly in schoolwork that I always made my parents angry.
However, I have changed a lot now. I don’t stay up late any more. Instead, I exercise as often as possible and I am stronger and healthier than before. Besides, I am good at schoolwork now with the help of my classmates and teachers. In my free time, I often help my parents with housework.
In the future, I hope to make more progress in study to make my parents proud of me.
