I wonder if there is any girl or boy who does not like to see a rainbow in the sky. It is beautiful. There is a story, saying that whenever you see a rainbow you should run at once to the place where it touches the ground, and there you would find a pot of gold. Of course it is not true. Neither you could find gold, nor would you ever find its end. No matter how far you run, it always seems far away.

A rainbow is not a thing which we can feel with our hands as we can feel a flower. It is only the effect(结果) of light shining on raindrops. The raindrops catch the sunlight and break it up into all the wonderful colours which we see.

It is called a rainbow perhaps because it is made up of raindrops and looks like a bow(弓).

That is why we can never see a rainbow in a clear sky. We see rainbows only when there is rain in the air and the sun is shining brightly through the clouds. Every rainbow has many colours in the same order. The first or the top colours is always red, next comes orange, then green, and last of all, blue. A rainbow is indeed one of the wonders of nature.

1.We can not feel _______with our hands.

A. gold　　　　　　 B. a flower

C. a rainbow　　 D. a raindrop

2.We can see a rainbow________.

A. when it is raining heavily

B. when it is snowing

Zoos are places where different kinds of animals are Kept and shown for the public. At most modern zoos people can see, smell and hear animals in their natural way. Some zoos even have “friendship farms” where people can touch some of the animals. Here are four reasons why people need zoos.

Firstly, zoos educate people about animals and their natural environment. They give interesting information about each animal, such as where it comes from and how it lives. Special teachers at the zoo help children to understand more about the animals. Trained guides show visitors around the zoo.

Secondly, zoos are working hard to find out more about animals. New knowledge leads to improved ways of looking after animals in the zoo, and better understanding of the same animals in the wild.

Thirdly, zoos play a part in protecting animals and stopping them from disappearing. Zoos work together with each other to help the animals in danger. For example, gorillas(大猩猩) from Taronga Zoo were sent to live with gorillas at the Melbourne Zoo in the hope that they would give birth to babies.

Finally, zoos are important for people’s enjoyment. People enjoy getting close to animals without having to cross the plains（平原）of Africa or climb the mountains of China. In the past, animal shows were common in zoos. Visitors were excited by monkeys in human clothes, and they even took rides on elephants or horses. However, today people prefer to see animals behaving naturally.

So a modern zoo is a place where animals are well cared for.

1. Special teachers at the zoo___________.

A. show visitors around the zoo

B. ride elephants or horses

C. look after animals in danger

A. Modern zoos have improved ways of looking after animals.

B. At modern zoos people like to see animals behaving naturally.

C. At modern zoos baby animals are usually born on the “friendship farms”.

D. Modern zoos educate people about animals and their natural environment.

Usually, students are not encouraged to run or jump around in the corridor (走廊). However,students in a British grammar school really enjoy running on the corridor tiles (瓷砖) and their teachers even encourage them to do that.

Why? It is because the corridor was built with special kinetic (动能的) tiles. When students jump on the tiles, electricity will be generated ( 产生).
