Why is a full moon, yellower and bigger when it is coming up than when it is higher in the sky?
That's a good question about something that we all can see. Let's talk about the moon's color first.
We see the moon only because of the sunlight that falls on it and is reflected. Actually, the moon is not a very good reflector, because its surface is all rocks and dirt. We see it in almost its true color when it is high in the sky.
When the moon first comes up, its light reaches our eyes after an extra-long path through the atmosphere (大气). There are lots of particles (微粒) scattering (分散) light in that long path. Blue light is scattered more than other colors, which means that it doesn't reach your eyes. The light that is left over looks yellow to your eye.
Now about the other question—why the moon seems to change in size. That's more complicated. It's not an effect of the atmosphere, the way color is; it's not caused by something fooling your eyes. It seems, instead, to be caused by something that fools your brain—an illusion(错觉).
Here's a drawing that creates an illusion. The two cones(圆锥体) are really the same size. But the rest of the drawing makes the right-hand cone seem farther away. Your brain knows that faraway objects are really larger than they look. It decides that the right-hand cone must be larger because it seems to be farther away.
Similarly, when you see the moon just come up over a line of trees or houses—or whatever makes the horizon(地平线)—it may be that your brain decides that the moon must be larger because it seems to be farther away.
1.The moon doesn't reflect the sunlight very well because________________.
A.it is high in the sky B.its surface is rough
C.its surface is white D.it isn't a good reflector
2.Which statement is true according to the passage?
A.In the course of its rising, the moon is getting smaller and smaller
B.The size of the moon is more complicated than its color
C.The atmosphere has the same effect on the moon's size as on its color
D.The change in the moon's size is caused by an illusion while that in its color is caused by the atmosphere
3.After reading this passage, you can possibly answer one of the following questions. Which one? ______.
A.Why is the sun bigger when it rises over the horizon?
B.Why does the sun look bigger when it rises over the horizon?
C.Why does the sun look golden?
D.Why does the sun rise in the east?
4.Who do you think probably wrote this passage?________.

When people think of working animals,what often comes to mind are dogs that watch sheep,horses that work on farms and animals that perform in movies.But there are lots of other jobs animals have had over the years.
Dogs have greater sense of smell than humans.This made dogs the traditional hunting partners,making their owners able to follow foxes and other animals.Police departments have taken advantage of this skill to help find missing people and escaped criminals.Recently,dogs have been trained to find drugs and explosives (爆炸物).
The honey-guide lives in the southeast African nation of Mozambique.It has developed a win-win relationship with a group called the Yao.If a Yao member makes a certain sound,the honey-guide will fly from tree to tree directing him to a hidden bee box.Once the box is discovered,the person breaks open the box for honey,and the honey-guide could enjoy the honey,too.
Ferrets (雪貂) are cute and furry animals that are from 1.5 to 4 pounds.People have taken advantage of a ferret’s natural ability to run through tiny space.Ferrets wear a special harness(甲胄) that makes them able to pull a string through hundreds of feet of tiny space,which is then used to pull computer wires through tiny space.
Baby flies are called maggots.The job of a maggot is to eat and grow until it turns into a fly.This is similar to how a caterpillar eats and grows until it becomes a butterfly.However,there is a big difference between these insects.Caterpillars feed on plants,while maggots eat meat.Actually,they only enjoy bad meat.Maggots are used with patients who get serious infections that can’t be treated with antibiotics (抗生素).The maggots are used to the infected area for a number of days.They eat the dead part but leave the living part alone,thereby helping patients recover from the infection.
1.From the passage,we can learn that dogs ________.
A.are the friendly friends of sheep
B.have developed a win-win relationship with people

D.help human beings a lot in many areas
2.With the help of the honey-guide,the Yao member can ________.
A.find the hidden bee box
B.develop a great relationship with bees

A.The honey-guide can be used as medicine.
B.People can learn much from dogs and horses.
C.Ferrets are good at running through tiny space.
D.The baby fly is always called the caterpillar.

Men have always believed that they are smarter than women. Now, a study has found that while this is certainly true, men also have to deal with the fact that they are also more stupid than the fairer sex.
In the study, scientists measured the IQ of 2500 brothers and sisters and they found an uneven number of men not only in the top two percent, but also in the bottom two percent.
The study's participants were tested on science, maths, English and mechanical abilities.
Though there were twice as many men as women in the smartest group, there were also twice as many men among the bottom.
The aggregate(总数)scores of men and women were similar.
One of the study's authors, psychology professor Timothy Bates, said that the phenomenon may be because men have always been expected to be high achievers and women have been restricted to spend more time taking care of their homes.
"The female developmental program may be tilted more towards ensuring survival and the safety of the middle ground.," the Daily Mail quoted Professor Bates, of Edinburgh University, as saying.
The research tallies with past results that men were more likely than women to receive first class University degrees or thirds and women secured the seconds.
It has been said that men are more ready to take risk when it comes to academics. Women have always found to be steadier in their learning.
A past study has shown that women are securing more firsts and seconds, while men are continuing to receive more thirds.
The argument for the change is that the increase of coursework at the cost of exams favors women's steady approach.
1.The purpose of the passage is to tell us that ________.
A.man are smarter then women
B.man are more stupid the women
C.a new fact about the IQ of men and women has been found
D.men are more likely to receive first class university degrees
2.According to Timothy Bates, less women are in the smartest group because _________.
A.they are born stupid
B.they have to spend more time to tale care of their homes than men
C.they don’t like to take risk
D.they are not expected to be high achievers
3.The underlined word tallies with in the eighth paragraph means________.
A.agree with B.deal with C.go against D.go with
4.It can be inferred from the passage that_________.
A.Women are steadier in their learning.
B.men are more ready to take risk in everything
C.women are securing more firsts and seconds
D.women are doing much better in academy
5.Which of the following questions has NOT been discussed in the passage? _________.
A.Why are men smarter than women?
B.Why are men more stupid than women?
C.How does the result go along with the past research?
D.How can we help the men in the bottom?

Is it necessary to learn when we are in our 50s, 60s or even 70s? Most people think that when they get retired, they are supposed to be completely laid-back(安详放松), do something fun, or hang around. 1. It’s particularly important for the elderly.
Through learning, we know how to think, how to memorize, how to ask questions and even how to interact with others. According to a study, while we are learning, our brains create neural pathways that make us smarter. 2. The more we learn, the more new neural pathways develop in our brains.
When it comes to learning, it doesn’t mean we must load ourselves with lots of knowledge. What we need to do is just learn something we like day in and day out. 3. Everyone learns from bottom to up. If we have an interest in learning, the desire will naturally push us to move forward.
If we feel worn out, don’t be discouraged. 4. An old saying goes, “Birds of a feather flock together.” As long as we have partners to learn together, our learning excitement will come alive again. On the contrary, if we don’t learn, or choose to distance ourselves from others, we might be getting dumb, and slow; eventually, we lose energy and passion. Instead of being bored and dumb, why don’t we keep learning?
5. More importantly, learning broadens our horizons, helps us build up our confidence; bit by bit, it leads us to a way of finding the sense of value and achievement in the process of learning.
A.Look for a partner who has the same interest as you.
B.It’s never too old to learn.
C.In other words, our brains are active as we learn something new.
D.Don’t worry that you can’t learn well.
E.Learning makes us understand how much potential we have.
F.However, the truth is that learning makes us energetic and content.
G.You should set a high learning target.
