25．（8分）There's much to see under the sea，but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air.The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are.You might find yourself reaching out to touch something and completely missing it.
Objects under water will appear larger than they would on the surface，too.Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away.The fish might not be so big after all!It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!
What's more，in deeper water，colors just don't seem as bright.In fact，it looks as if some colors are missing.Remember the color of an object results from the wavelengths（波长） of light that are reflected from its surface.And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.
Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater.Let's take a bright red，yellow，and blue wet suit as an example.These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water.Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in water.The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths，the longest among these three colors，are missing.As you go down deeper，the same thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part.Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater，you will look terrible，like a ghost（鬼怪）!And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again.
Do you have a better understanding of the behavior of the light underwater？We need to be careful about the objects around us and explore（探索）their mysteries by ourselves.
（1）You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because .
A.your eyesight is quite poor
B.your are not quick enough
C.it is not as close﹣as it seems
D.it disappears very quickly
（2）The example of the wet suit is used to explain the change of of an object underwater in paragraph 4.
A.the shop
B.the color
C.the position
D.the weight
（3）The underlined word " descend " probably means in paragraph.4？
A.move up
B.move on water
C.stop breathing for a while
D.go down
（4）Which of the following would be the best title of the passage？
A.The Standard of Color Underwater
B.The Direction of Light Underwater
C.The Beauty of Color Underwater
D.The Behavior of Light Underwater
26．（6分）Students decide to take a job while being in university because of two reasons：on the one hand.they need money，on the other hand，they want to experience something new and they want to see what working means.It is a good opportunity（机会）to know about the society and realize the importance of co﹣working with others.
But is it good to take a job while you are a university student？There are both advantages and disadvantages if we were to answer this question.If we were to think about the advantages，we could mention the ones we have just discussed.Having a job at an early age helps us gain（获得）experience，which will be very useful to our later life.We may become financially independent（经济独立）and don't need to ask our parents for money each time we want to go downtown with our friends.or spend the holiday at the seaside or in the mountains.
However，students who take a job might have problems in spending enough time on their study.If they work during the day，they may have to be absent from their classes，and if they work at night，they will feel tired the next day.They may choose to stay at home resting.What's worse，some students may even get bored with studying.
Well，this fact happens every now and then，but there are cases（情况）when well﹣prepared students take a part﹣time job but at the same time they make time for studying，too.And they have good results.Their case is a good example to follow among the students who decide to work while being in university.Anyway，we need to keep in mind that study is the most important job for a student.
（1）What is the benefit（好处）for university students who take a job according to the passage？
A.Making more friends.
B.Winning free journeys.
C.Preparing them for their future careers（职业）.
D.Having complete independence from their family.
（2）The writer implies（暗示）that university students in the last paragraph.
A.should learn by doing
B.should not take a job
C.can keep a balance（平衡）between work and study
D.had better take a part﹣time job during vacation
（3）From the passage，we can know that taking a job during university years .
A.is much like a coin with two sides
B.is much like a cake with fruit in it
C.has more negative（消极的）influences
D.has more positive（积极的）influences
27．（6分）After breakfast Martha went to visit her mother for the day.Mary felt lonely in the house without her so she went outside into the bright sunshine.She ran round and round the fountain and soon she started to feel better.Ben Weather staff was in.she vegetable garden.He didn't look cross that day so she went to speak to him.

Then she saw the robin sitting on a long branch of the ivy on the wall.He chirped.Mary went up to him.
"You showed me the key yesterday，"she said."Can you show me the door today？"
The robin flew to the top of the wall.Suddenly the wind blew the long branch of ivy to one side.Mary held it in her hand because she could see something under it a door!

25．（8分）There's much to see under the sea，but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air.The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are.You might find yourself reaching out to touch something and completely missing it.
Objects under water will appear larger than they would on the surface，too.Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away.The fish might not be so big after all!It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!
What's more，in deeper water，colors just don't seem as bright.In fact，it looks as if some colors are missing.Remember the color of an object results from the wavelengths（波长） of light that are reflected from its surface.And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.
Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater.Let's take a bright red，yellow，and blue wet suit as an example.These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water.Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in water.The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths，the longest among these three colors，are missing.As you go down deeper，the same thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part.Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater，you will look terrible，like a ghost（鬼怪）!And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again.
Do you have a better understanding of the behavior of the light underwater？We need to be careful about the objects around us and explore（探索）their mysteries by ourselves.
（1）You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because C .
A.your eyesight is quite poor
B.your are not quick enough
C.it is not as close﹣as it seems
D.it disappears very quickly
（2）The example of the wet suit is used to explain the change of B of an object underwater in paragraph 4.
A.the shop
B.the color
C.the position
D.the weight
（3）The underlined word " descend " probably means D in paragraph.4？
A.move up
B.move on water
C.stop breathing for a while
D.go down
（4）Which of the following would be the best title of the passage？ D
A.The Standard of Color Underwater
B.The Direction of Light Underwater
C.The Beauty of Color Underwater
D.The Behavior of Light Underwater
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据文中第1段"The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are."（物体看起来离你比实际更近。）可知，水中的物体看起来比实际的要近，故知但你伸手触摸时会摸不到，故选C。
（2）细节理解题。根据文中第4段"Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in water."（当你潜入水中时，仔细观察颜色的变化。）可知，用湿衣服来说明颜色的变化，故选B。

But is it good to take a job while you are a university student？There are both advantages and disadvantages if we were to answer this question.If we were to think about the advantages，we could mention the ones we have just discussed.Having a job at an early age helps us gain（获得）experience，which will be very useful to our later life.We may become financially independent（经济独立）and don't need to ask our parents for money each time we want to go downtown with our friends.or spend the holiday at the seaside or in the mountains.
However，students who take a job might have problems in spending enough time on their study.If they work during the day，they may have to be absent from their classes，and if they work at night，they will feel tired the next day.They may choose to stay at home resting.What's worse，some students may even get bored with studying.
Well，this fact happens every now and then，but there are cases（情况）when well﹣prepared students take a part﹣time job but at the same time they make time for studying，too.And they have good results.Their case is a good example to follow among the students who decide to work while being in university.Anyway，we need to keep in mind that study is the most important job for a student.
（1）What is the benefit（好处）for university students who take a job according to the passage？ C
A.Making more friends.
B.Winning free journeys.
C.Preparing them for their future careers（职业）.

D.had better take a part﹣time job during vacation

A.is much like a coin with two sides
B.is much like a cake with fruit in it
C.has more negative（消极的）influences
D.has more positive（积极的）influences

（2）C.推理判断题。根据.Well，this fact happens every now and then，but there are cases when well﹣prepared students take a part﹣time job but at the same time they make time for study，too.And they have good results.可知准备充分的学生做兼职工作，但同时他们也腾出时间来学习，可推测出作者是想让大学生应该在工作和学习之间保持平衡。故选：C。
（3）A.推理判断题。根据There are both advantages and disadvantages.文章讲述大学生兼职有好处也有坏处，可知就像硬币一样有两面性。故选：A。

25．（8分）There's much to see under the sea，but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air.The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are.You might find yourself reaching out to touch something and completely missing it.
Objects under water will appear larger than they would on the surface，too.Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away.The fish might not be so big after all!It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!
What's more，in deeper water，colors just don't seem as bright.In fact，it looks as if some colors are missing.Remember the color of an object results from the wavelengths（波长） of light that are reflected from its surface.And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.
Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater.Let's take a bright red，yellow，and blue wet suit as an example.These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water.Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in water.The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths，the longest among these three colors，are missing.As you go down deeper，the same thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part.Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater，you will look terrible，like a ghost（鬼怪）!And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again.
Do you have a better understanding of the behavior of the light underwater？We need to be careful about the objects around us and explore（探索）their mysteries by ourselves.
（1）You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because .
A.your eyesight is quite poor
B.your are not quick enough
C.it is not as close﹣as it seems
D.it disappears very quickly
（2）The example of the wet suit is used to explain the change of of an object underwater in paragraph 4.
A.the shop
B.the color
C.the position
D.the weight
（3）The underlined word " descend " probably means in paragraph.4？
A.move up
B.move on water
C.stop breathing for a while
D.go down
（4）Which of the following would be the best title of the passage？
A.The Standard of Color Underwater
B.The Direction of Light Underwater
C.The Beauty of Color Underwater
D.The Behavior of Light Underwater
26．（6分）Students decide to take a job while being in university because of two reasons：on the one hand.they need money，on the other hand，they want to experience something new and they want to see what working means.It is a good opportunity（机会）to know about the society and realize the importance of co﹣working with others.
But is it good to take a job while you are a university student？There are both advantages and disadvantages if we were to answer this question.If we were to think about the advantages，we could mention the ones we have just discussed.Having a job at an early age helps us gain（获得）experience，which will be very useful to our later life.We may become financially independent（经济独立）and don't need to ask our parents for money each time we want to go downtown with our friends.or spend the holiday at the seaside or in the mountains.
However，students who take a job might have problems in spending enough time on their study.If they work during the day，they may have to be absent from their classes，and if they work at night，they will feel tired the next day.They may choose to stay at home resting.What's worse，some students may even get bored with studying.
Well，this fact happens every now and then，but there are cases（情况）when well﹣prepared students take a part﹣time job but at the same time they make time for studying，too.And they have good results.Their case is a good example to follow among the students who decide to work while being in university.Anyway，we need to keep in mind that study is the most important job for a student.
（1）What is the benefit（好处）for university students who take a job according to the passage？
A.Making more friends.
B.Winning free journeys.
C.Preparing them for their future careers（职业）.
D.Having complete independence from their family.
（2）The writer implies（暗示）that university students in the last paragraph.
A.should learn by doing
B.should not take a job
C.can keep a balance（平衡）between work and study
D.had better take a part﹣time job during vacation
（3）From the passage，we can know that taking a job during university years .
A.is much like a coin with two sides
B.is much like a cake with fruit in it
C.has more negative（消极的）influences
D.has more positive（积极的）influences

25．（8分）There's much to see under the sea，but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air.The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are.You might find yourself reaching out to touch something and completely missing it.
Objects under water will appear larger than they would on the surface，too.Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away.The fish might not be so big after all!It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!
What's more，in deeper water，colors just don't seem as bright.In fact，it looks as if some colors are missing.Remember the color of an object results from the wavelengths（波长） of light that are reflected from its surface.And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.
Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater.Let's take a bright red，yellow，and blue wet suit as an example.These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water.Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in water.The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths，the longest among these three colors，are missing.As you go down deeper，the same thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part.Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater，you will look terrible，like a ghost（鬼怪）!And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again.
Do you have a better understanding of the behavior of the light underwater？We need to be careful about the objects around us and explore（探索）their mysteries by ourselves.
（1）You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because C .
A.your eyesight is quite poor
B.your are not quick enough
C.it is not as close﹣as it seems
D.it disappears very quickly
（2）The example of the wet suit is used to explain the change of B of an object underwater in paragraph 4.
A.the shop
B.the color
C.the position
D.the weight
（3）The underlined word " descend " probably means D in paragraph.4？
A.move up
B.move on water
C.stop breathing for a while
D.go down
（4）Which of the following would be the best title of the passage？ D
A.The Standard of Color Underwater
B.The Direction of Light Underwater
C.The Beauty of Color Underwater
D.The Behavior of Light Underwater
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据文中第1段"The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are."（物体看起来离你比实际更近。）可知，水中的物体看起来比实际的要近，故知但你伸手触摸时会摸不到，故选C。
（2）细节理解题。根据文中第4段"Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in water."（当你潜入水中时，仔细观察颜色的变化。）可知，用湿衣服来说明颜色的变化，故选B。
（3）词义猜测题。根据文中第4段"Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in water"（当你潜入水中时，仔细观察颜色的变化。）可知，当你潜入水中时，注意观察颜色的变化，故选D。
（5）细节理解题。根据文中第1段" but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air."（但你要记住，光在水中和在空气中的表现是不同的。）可知，本文说的是光线在水中的变化，故选D。
26．（6分）Students decide to take a job while being in university because of two reasons：on the one hand.they need money，on the other hand，they want to experience something new and they want to see what working means.It is a good opportunity（机会）to know about the society and realize the importance of co﹣working with others.
But is it good to take a job while you are a university student？There are both advantages and disadvantages if we were to answer this question.If we were to think about the advantages，we could mention the ones we have just discussed.Having a job at an early age helps us gain（获得）experience，which will be very useful to our later life.We may become financially independent（经济独立）and don't need to ask our parents for money each time we want to go downtown with our friends.or spend the holiday at the seaside or in the mountains.
However，students who take a job might have problems in spending enough time on their study.If they work during the day，they may have to be absent from their classes，and if they work at night，they will feel tired the next day.They may choose to stay at home resting.What's worse，some students may even get bored with studying.
Well，this fact happens every now and then，but there are cases（情况）when well﹣prepared students take a part﹣time job but at the same time they make time for studying，too.And they have good results.Their case is a good example to follow among the students who decide to work while being in university.Anyway，we need to keep in mind that study is the most important job for a student.
（1）What is the benefit（好处）for university students who take a job according to the passage？ C
A.Making more friends.
B.Winning free journeys.
C.Preparing them for their future careers（职业）.
D.Having complete independence from their family.
（2）The writer implies（暗示）that university students C in the last paragraph.
A.should learn by doing
B.should not take a job
C.can keep a balance（平衡）between work and study
D.had better take a part﹣time job during vacation
（3）From the passage，we can know that taking a job during university years A .
A.is much like a coin with two sides
B.is much like a cake with fruit in it
C.has more negative（消极的）influences
D.has more positive（积极的）influences
【解答】（1）C.细节理解题。根据Having a job at an early age helps us gain experience，which will be very useful to our later life.可知可以帮助我们获得经验，对我们以后的生活非常有用，所以是为他们未来的职业生涯做准备。故选：C。
（2）C.推理判断题。根据.Well，this fact happens every now and then，but there are cases when well﹣prepared students take a part﹣time job but at the same time they make time for study，too.And they have good results.可知准备充分的学生做兼职工作，但同时他们也腾出时间来学习，可推测出作者是想让大学生应该在工作和学习之间保持平衡。故选：C。
（3）A.推理判断题。根据There are both advantages and disadvantages.文章讲述大学生兼职有好处也有坏处，可知就像硬币一样有两面性。故选：A。
