My wife and I were on our way home from Houston, Texas one Saturday morning. We decided to stop at a local restaurant to get something to eat since we had enough time.
14、 When we finished, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a homeless man standing in front of the building. His clothes were worn and it looked as if he didnt have any money. It was cold and I was sure he wanted something warm to drink. But it was not this that moved me. A dog
15、was also walking up to the front of the building. Being a dog owner, I knew that the dog was a mother, and she had just had some puppies. She was hungry and weak, and I felt bad for her. I knew if she didnt eat soon, she and her puppies. She was hungry and weak, and I felt bad for her. I knew if she
16、 didnt eat soon, she and her puppies would not live on. People walking by didnt even notice her. She was not as pretty and clean as most dogs, but she sill deserved better. We still didnt do anything, but someone else did. The homeless man, who I thought could not afford anything to eat, went back i
17、nto the store and bought the dog food with all of the money he had. 1. Where did the story happen? A. In the local theatre. B. In front of a building. C. In the local park. D. In front of a station. 2. Which of the following moved the writer? A. The homeless man had no money to buy food for himself.

A poor dog. C. A great homeless man. D. A mothers food. B The idea that red means stop and green means g
20、o has influenced our daily lives in more ways than just traffic signals(信 号) . We have been taught from a young age that the colour red means danger and green means its okay to move forward. But why were those colours chosen for traffic lights in the first place? For something we have to look at eve
21、ry day, why couldnt they have been prettier colours? Well, its important to know that before traffic lights for cars, there were traffic signals for trains. At first, railway companies used red to mean stop, white to mean go, and green to mean warn. As you could imagine, trains ran into a few proble
22、ms with white meaning go. For example, one train mistook a bright star for a white light and something unexpected happened. Because of that, railway companies finally moved green meaning go and used yellow to mean warn. And its been that way ever since Red has always been a colour that meant danger,
23、 long before cars were even around. This most likely started because its the colour with the longest wavelength (波长) , so it can be seen somewhere farther than other colours. However, believe it or not, yellow was once used to mean stop. Back in the 1900s, some stop signs were yellow because it was
24、too hard to see a red sign in a poorly lit area. Finally, highly reflective materials (高反射材料) were developed and red stop signs were born. Since yellow can be seen well at all times of the day, school zones, some traffic signs and school buses continue to be painted yellow. So next time youre impati
25、ently waiting at a traffic light, dont get so mad at them; theyve certainly come a long way. 6. What were traffic signals for before traffic lights for cars? A. Trains. B. Boats. C. Planes. D. Bicycles 7. Which of the following colours meant go at first? A. Red B. Yellow. C. White. D. Green. 8. Why
26、does red mean danger? A. Because its the brightest colour. B. Because it can be seen far away. C. Because railway companies say so. D. Because it has the shortest wavelength. 9. Why are school buses painted yellow? A. Because yellow is a prettier colour. B. Because yellow once meant danger. C. Becau
27、se yellow can be seen well in daytime. D. Because yellow means its OK to go forward. 10. What does the passage mainly tell us? A. How important traffic lights are. B. Which colour has the longest wavelength. C. What red, yellow and green can be used for. D. Why traffic lights are red, yellow and gre
