三、阅读理解
There's much to see under the sea, but you need to remember that light behaves (表现)differently in water than in air. The objects(物体) seem closer to you than they exactly are. You might find yourself reaching out to touch something and completely missing it.
Objects under water will seem larger than they would on the surface (表面) too. Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away. That fish might not be so big after all! It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 per cent bigger in water!
What's more, in deeper water, colours just don't seem as bright. In fact, it looks as if some colours are missing. Remember the colour of an object results from the wavelengths (波长) of light that are reflected (反射) 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 colours are hard to miss on the surface of water. Watch carefully the changes in colour as you descend in the water. The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths, the longest among these three colours, 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 metres. underwater, you will look terrible, like a ghost! And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colours again!
( )1. You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because _________ .
A. your eyesight is quite poor B. you are not quick enough
C. it is not as close as it seems D. it disappears(消失) very quickly
( )2. The example of the wet suit is to explain the change of _____of an object underwater.
A. the size B. the colour C. the position D. the weight
( )3. The underlined word "descend" probably means "______"in Chinese in this passage.
A.上升 B.漂浮 C.屏息 D.下潜
( )4. Which of the following is TRUE
A. A four-metre – long fish looks three metres long underwater.
B. The wavelengths of red light are longer than those of blue light.
C. Much water will be taken in by the swimmer deep in the water.
D. You will see a ghost if you go as deep as 6 to 9 metres into the sea.
( )5. The best title for this passage is_________.
A. The Size of Colour Underwater B. The Direction of Light Underwater
C. The Brightness of Colour Underwater D. The Behavior of Light Underwater

五、信息还原。
You live in a three dimensional(三维的) space. 1 You live in a 3 - D house, study in a 3 - D School, and eat 3 - D food. Everyone on Earth is used to everything having length, width and depth.
2 Using his imagination, Einstein came up with some interesting theories(理论) about time having characteristics like the other three dimensions. He thought maybe, under the right conditions, people could travel through time as easily as a person travels from one room to another. If time really were a dimension like length, width or depth, a person should be able to go in any direction: forward in time and backward in time.
3 On a regular school day, you get up, get dressed, have breakfast, go to school, have lunch, come home from school, have dinner, do homework and go to bed. 4 You could get up, step forward in time and have lunch, step backward in time and have breakfast, step forward again and have dinner, and so on. Better yet, if you forgot to put something in your backpack for school, you could step back in time to put it in your backpack and step forward again to finish your class. 5 Maybe people should just keep things exactly as they are now.
Think about how that might change the way you live.
But Einstein's theories were wrong.
You see and experience everything around you in three dimensions.
Sounds like it might be fun, but then again, it might be bewildering(令人困惑的)
Long long ago, scientists guessed that the world people lived in actually contained a fourth dimension; time.
Even if you could travel through time, you could change nothing.
However, if you could move about in time, you could do everything in any order you wanted to.

We had our regulars(老主顾), but times were hard. Dad said it was the home deliveries that kept us in business. The deliveries included the tee my dad imported(进口) from Fuzhou. Dad was well known for his tea, and people came from miles around to buy it.
I loaded up my bicycle with Mr Green's shopping. His order always included three packets of my dad's tea. How Mr Green could drink that much tea each week was a mystery to me.
"See you later, Chen, "said Dad.
He always called me by my Chinese name.
My dad's parents came from China in the 1950s. I had a one - yuan coin they brought with them. I cycled out into the sunshine, wishing I could drive – it would be so much quicker to make deliveries.
Dad always said the exercise was good for me. I knew he was right, but I had already decided that when I left home, the first thing I would do was to buy a car.
I loved anything to do with cars, and I had decided I would be a mechanic although I knew it wasn't what Dad had in mind for me. He had already started saying to his friends, "When Chen goes to university . . . " If that happened, I would be the first person in my family to go to university, and it would be a great honour for my dad. But it wasn't what I wanted.
