Most of the flowers in nature are red, orange and yellow. If we have seen a black flower, it’s chance in a million.
People have made a survey to colors of more than four thousand kinds of flowers and discovered that only eight of them are black.
As we know, sunlight is formed by seven colored lights. The wavelength of each light is also different, so the quantity(量) of heat in each light is also different. Flowers, especially their petals(花瓣)，are easy to be harmed by high temperature.
Black flowers can take in the light of all the wavelengths that make them dry up because of high temperature, so black flowers can hardly resist(抵抗) sunlight. But red, orange and yellow flowers can protect themselves from sunlight by reflecting(反射) the red light, orange light and yellow light, each of which has a large quantity of heat.
1.It is _______ to see a black flower.
A. impossible B. two fifths
C. Very common D. chance in a million
2.The passage tells us that__________
A.black flowers are so weak that it is difficult for them to grow up
B.There are only eight black flowers in nature
C.Sunlight is formed by seven different colored lights including black
D.Black flowers can take in the light of all the wavelengths that make them dry up because of high temperature
3.Which of the following ideas is NOT true?
A. People have found that only few kinds of flowers are black.
B. Flowers are easy to be harmed by very high temperature.
C. Red, orange and yellow flowers can also absorb(吸收) the light of all wavelengths.
D. The black flowers can’t protect themselves from sunlight.
4.From the passage we know the red, orange and yellow light have________
A. Less heat than the other lights
B. More heat than the other lights
C. Very little light
D. A large quantity of heat

Why do plants grow in some places but not in others? Why does some land have so many plants growing on it, while other land has almost no plants growing on it at all?
To grow, plants need several things. One is warmth. In very cold places almost nothing grows. Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the Earth only a few unusual plants can grow. That’s why there are almost no trees or grass in dry deserts.
Plants must also have a place to put down their roots and grow. They find it difficult to grow on hard land. The town is built(被建立) on hard land. The plants there have only the soil between the cracks of the stones to grow in.
Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food. What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach? A few plants, such as grass, will grow in sand, but most plants won’t. Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants each day, many of them will die because the sand on this beach has almost no food for plants.
1.According to the passage, plants need_____ things to grow well.
A. two B. three C .four D. five
2.The underlined word“cracks”means“______”
A．long narrow opening
B. the surface of something
C. small plants on something
D. the bottom of something
3.From the passage, we can know it is____ for plants to grow in dry places.
A. easy B. difficult
C. impossible D. important
4.The passage can most probably be found in a ____ book.
