D
There are many colors in nature. But do you think that a color has weight? I think you'll say 6/no". But I'm afraid you are wrong. If you don't believe it, you may do a small experiment(实验).
First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes.
Third, wrap(包裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other one with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.
Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weights in man's mind. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind.
The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say S07 That is because every color stands for (代表) a kind of light with a certain wavelength,(波长). It reaches our brain through sense organs According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you'll be nervous or even get ill.  For example (例如) ,  you like blue and hate red.  If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpaper and furniture(家具) for two hours, you'll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you'll feel you have been there for only an hour.  And, if a person walks out of a blue room and into a red room, his temperature will rise.
That means our body temperature will change with different colors.
From the experiment, we know that          .

A.the two boxes have the same weight
B.colors can change the weight of an object
C.the red paper is heavier than the white paper
D.colors have different weights in people's mind

From the fourth paragraph, we can infer(推断)____.

A.the smell of colors is changeable(可变的)
B.people can sense the light from colors
C.people can smell the colors through the nose
D.all the colors have the same smell for the blind

A.White color is heavier than red color
B.People may get ill if they refuse the colors they don't like
C.People can stay longer in red rooms than in blue rooms
D.People's body temperature will change with different colors

A.red color is bad for our health
B.people may get nervous in a red room
C.blue color can raise(提升)our body temperature

Each morning a rich man found a poor man sitting on a bench(长凳) in the park. The poor man always sat there, looking at the big hotel in which the rich man lived. One day, the rich man got out of his car and said to the poor man,“Excuse me. I want to know why you sit here and look at my hotel every morning.”“Sir,”said the poor man,“I am a failure. I have no money , no family, no home. I sleep on this bench, and every night I dream that one day I’ll sleep in that hotel.”The rich man said ,“ Tonight your dream will come true.

In the most southern part of our planet, there’s a place that’s covered with snow and ice all year round. But it has the clearest and cleanest air. Amazingly, in this place, the sun sometimes hangs even in the midnight sky. This place is Antarctica (南极洲): the coldest, windiest and harshest (恶劣的) place on the Earth.
As the world’s least-known place, Antarctica is of great interest to scientists around the world. In 1983, China joined the Antarctic Treaty (《南极条约》). The treaty made Antarctica a peaceful place for member countries to do scientific research. During 30 years, China has sent many scientists to Antarctica. They mostly look at the resources under the icy land and do research about climate change and marine (海洋的) biology.
Antarctica is a place with fantastic views. However, life there is very hard. Food is one of the biggest problems. Frozen food which can be heated easily is people’s daily food. Fresh vegetables are hard to grow in the cold weather. Therefore, scientists often eat dried or canned vegetables.
Sleep is also troublesome. In Antarctica, summer lasts from November to March. During this period, Antarctica points to the sun and receives sunlight 24 hours a day. In order to get some sleep, scientists cover the windows with black plastic cloth to create “night”.
Working in Antarctica is dangerous, especially when meeting gale-force(七级以上的)winds.Sometimes the wind is even stronger than a typhoon.It can easily blow people away.So there are ropes that connect buildings of some research stations.People can hold these ropes to keep their balance in forceful winds.
What’s more, communicating with others is difficult. Without cables and Internet in some research stations, two-way radios are the only tools to communicate. If people want to say hello to friends and relatives, they can use satellite phones.
Although it is challenging(挑战) to work in Antarctica, scientists’ passion to learn about this mysterious land will never end. It is hopeful that one day they will step every corner of this icy land.
Scientists from China go to Antarctica to _____.

A.find out ways to control water pollution
B.research climate change and marine biology
C.grow plants and vegetables in special condition
D.stop the hunters from killing the marine biology

In order to sleep well in Antarctica, the scientists have to _____.

A.wear more clothes to keep warm B.cover the windows with black cloth
C.connect research stations with ropes D.eat more fried and canned vegetables

We can replace (替换) the underlined word passion in the last paragraph with .

A.strong love B.full preparation
C.pleasant introduction D.amazing imagination

The passage is mainly about .

A.view of the Antarctica
B.exploring the Antarctica
C.how to survive in the Antarctica
D.climate changes of the Antarctica

The mystery stories of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle are famous all over the world.
The detective in his stories is called Sherlock Holmes. He solves mysteries in a most surprising way. His assistant, Dr Watson, watches with admiration and then writes up the story of the mystery afterwards.
This is a useful story writing skill. Because Watson is not very clever, the story remains a mystery until the end. The readers can sometimes pick up some clues before he does! Then, to make Watson understand the mystery, Holmes has to explain it all, step by step. So we, the readers, get to see it step by step too. Watson is almost as good a character in the story as Sherlock Holmes!
The very first time they meet, Holmes greatly surprises Watson. When they are first introduced, Holmes says to Watson, ‘How do you do? I see you have been to Afghanistan(阿富汗).’
Watson is too amazed by this to ask Holmes how he knows this. Watson has, indeed, been to Afghanistan. Later, he asks Holmes about it. Holmes explains that there is nothing magical about what he does. He gets to know it all by very, very careful observation(观察).
Observation One
Watson was introduced to Holmes as a doctor. Yet Holmes thought that the way he stood and walked made him seem like a soldier. So, this meant he was probably an army doctor.
Observation Two
Watson's face was quite dark skinned. But his wrists were pale. So his dark face was probably sun burnt. This meant that he had been to a hot, sunny country.
Observation Three
At the time, the British army had soldiers at bases in many parts of the world. So there were still a lot of places to choose from. However, Holmes saw that Watson looked very tired and he was always holding his left arm, as if it was painful. So, he had probably been with the army to a place where they were fighting. There was only one place where the British army was fighting at that time: Afghanistan.
The writer most probably created the character, Dr Watson, to ______.

A.give Holmes help when solving mysteries
B.show Holmes' careful observation
C.help readers pick up some clues about the mystery
D.get readers to see the mystery step by step

The first time they meet, ______.

A.Holmes explains how he knows Watson has been to Afghanistan

A.only had soldiers in Afghanistan
B.had many army doctors at bases in many parts of the world
