About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected (影響) in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green － a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.
1.The passage is mainly about _____________.
A. color and its surprising effects.
B. women being luckier than men
C. danger caused by color blindness
D. color blindness
2.According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can_______________.
A. tell different shapes
B. see in a weak light
C. kill mosquitoes
D. tell orange from yellow
3.Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?
A. Women are more careful.
B. There are fewer color-blind women
C. Women are fonder of driving than men.
D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.
4.Which of the statements about the color- blind is true?
A. Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.
B. None of them can see deep red.
C. None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.
D. All of them see everything in shades of green.

Watching some children trying to catch butterflies one August afternoon, I was reminded of an incident in my own childhood. When I was a boy of 12 in South Carolina, something happened to me that cured me forever of wanting to put any wild creature in a cage.
We lived on the edge of a wood, and every evening at dusk the mockingbirds would come and rest in the trees and sing. There isn’t a musical instrument made by man that can produce a more beautiful sound than the song of the mockingbird. I decided that I would catch a young bird and keep it in a cage and that in that case, I would have my own private musician.
I finally succeeded in catching one and put it in a cage. At first, in its fright at being captured , the bird fluttered(拍翅) about the cage, but eventually it settled down in its new home. I felt pleased with myself and looked forward to some beautiful singing from my tiny musician.
I had left the cage out on our back doorway and on the second day of the bird’s captivity(囚禁)， my new pet’s mother flew to the cage with food in her mouth. The baby bird ate everything she brought to it. I was pleased to see this. Certainly the mother knew better than I on how to feed the baby.
The following morning when I went to see how my captive was doing, I discovered it on the floor of the cage, dead. I was shocked! What had happened? I had taken excellent care of my little bird , or so I thought.
Arthur Wayne, the famous ornithologist, happened to be visiting my father at the time and, hearing me crying over the death of my bird, explained what had occurred. “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poisonous berries(漿果). She thinks it better for her young to die than to live in captivity.”
Never since then have I caught any living creature and put it in a cage. All living creatures have a right to live free.
1.The boy caught a mockingbird because__________.
A. he liked its beautiful feather.
B. he wanted a pet as his companion
C. he wanted it to sing for him
D. he wanted to watch it dance
2.The “ornithologist” probably means __________.
A. a religious person
B. a kind and sympathetic person
C. a school master
D. an expert in birds
3.The most important lesson the boy learned from the accident is that __________ .
A. a bird put in a cage won’t live long
B. you have to be careful about the food you give to your young
C. freedom is valuable to all living creatures
D. you should keep a young bird away from its mother
4.What can we infer according to the passage?
A. The children trying to catch butterflies reminded the author to keep a mockingbird as a pet.
B. The mockingbird sings better than any other bird.
C. The mockingbird’s mother had a better understanding than the author.
D. The author did not catch any living creature and put it in a cage after the accident.

Adding math talk to story time at home is a winning factor for children’s math achievement, according to a new research from the University of Chicago. The study from psychologists Sian Beilock and Susan Levine shows a marked increase in math achievement among children whose families used Bedtime Math, an iPad app that delivers engaging math story problems for parents and children to solve together.
Even children who used the app with their parents as little as once a week saw gains in math achievement by the end of the school year. The app’s effect was especially strong for children whose parents tend to be anxious or uncomfortable with math.
Previous research from this group has demonstrated the importance of adults’ attitudes about math for children’s math success. For example, a recent study found that math-anxious parents who help their children with math homework actually weaken their children’s math achievement.
The new findings demonstrate that structured, positive interactions around math at home can cut the link between parents’ uneasiness about math and children’s low math achievement.
“Many Americans experience high levels of anxiety when they have to solve a math problem, with a majority of adults feeling at least some worries about math,” said Beilock, professor in Psychology and author of Choke, a book about stress and performance. “These math-anxious parents are probably less likely to talk about math at home, which affects how competent their children are in math. Bedtime Math encourages a dialogue between parents and kids about math, and offers a way to engage in high-quality math interactions in a low-effort, high-impact way.”
Study participants included 587 first-grade students and their parents. Families were given an iPad installed with a version of the Bedtime Math app, with which parents and their children read stories and answer questions involving math, including topics like counting, shapes and problem-solving. A control group received a reading app that had similar stories without the math content and questions related to reading comprehension instead. Children’s math achievement was assessed at the beginning and end of the school year. Parents completed a questionnaire about their nervousness with math.
The more times parents and children in the math group used the app, the higher children’s achievement on a math assessment at the end of the school year. Indeed, children who frequently used the math app with their parents outperformed similar students in the reading group by almost three months in math achievement at year’s end.
1.Bedtime Math is an iPad app that _____.
A. requires parents and children to answer reading comprehension questions
B. assesses children’s math achievement and parents’ nervousness with math
C. teaches children how to count, recognize shapes and solve practical problems
D. encourages children together with their parents to solve math story problems
2.The previous study found that _____.
A. help from math-anxious parents improves children’s math achievement
B. children’s math achievement is related to parents’ attitude about math
C. interactions around math at home will cut off the family relationship
D. children can achieve more success if they see the importance of math
3.We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. children using the app for three months can see gains in math achievement
B. children whose parents are uneasy about math outperform other students
C. it is the math problems related to the stories that make the great difference
D. the frequency of using the app has nothing to do with children’s achievement
4.Which is the best title for the passage?
A. High-quality math interactions improve performance.
B. Frequent use of app can develop problem solving ability.
C. Low-effort activities create good parent-child relationship.
D. High-anxiety parents influence children’s attitude about math.
