         When my wife and I went to live in an Arab country, my friends told us to be prepared for a culture shock.

         Another culture shock was the working week. We worked from Saturdays to Wednesdays, including
    Sundays. It was also strange to see people praying (祷告) in a certain direction! They have strict rules for
    women. They do not let people see their faces in public. They do not let women drive cars, either. All dresses
    worn by women have to cover the body completely. They believe that women cannot be seen in public.
         At the weekends, we went camping in the desert. I will never forget watching the sun setting over the desert.

         Is human blood all the same? "Yes." You may say. "It's all red." 
         Well, it's not as simple as you might think.
         Blood is made up of different parts, such as red blood cells (红血球), white blood cells and platelets
    (血小板).
         Two chemical molecules (分子) on the red blood cells make people's blood different. Scientists mark one
    molecule "A" and the other molecule "B". According to which and how many molecules are on the red cell,
    scientists divide blood into four types: A, B, AB and O.
         Your blood type will stay the same all your life.
         Scientists have been wondering if there are some links (联系) between people's blood types and their
    personalities, but they are not certain.
         But some say that people with the same blood type may have things in common.
         What's your blood type? Do you have family members or friends who are of the same type as you? Read
    the following.
         People with Type A: They look peaceful from the outside. But they ask too much of themselves that they
    may be very nervous inside. They get happy or sad easily. Sometimes they are shy but always very careful.
    They can easily win people's trust.
         People with Type B: They have strong minds. Once they start a task, they don't give up easily. They'll try
    their best to finish it and do it well. Type B people always try to make themselves different from others. They
    want to do things in their own way.
         People with Type AB: They are maybe the strangest among all blood types. They can be both open and shy,
    noisy and quiet at the same time! They are responsible and always ready to help others.
         People with Type O: They are open and good at making friends. They always start tasks but don't always
    finish them. They have lots of new ideas and love to be the centre of attention. They always strongly believe in
    themselves.
    1. The blood types are decided by _______.
    [     ]
    A. the kind and amount (数量) of molecules on the white cell
    B. the kind and amount of molecules on the red cell
    C. the kind and the amount of platelets
    D. the amount of white blood cells
    2. Scientists are _______ about the relations between blood and personalities.
    [     ]
    A. sure
    B. not sure
    C. worried
    D. excited
    3. If you are with Type B, you might _______.
    [     ]
    A. have strong minds
    B. be always ready to help others
    C. look peaceful outside
    D. always start a task and don't finish it

    [     ]
    A. Type O
    B. Type A
    C. Type B
    D. Type AB
    5. The best title of the passage is _______.

         Look at the center circles of Diagram (图)A and Diagram B.       
    Which of the centre circles looks larger? 
         Take a first look and you probably think that the centre circle in Diagram A is smaller than that in Diagram B.

         "What's happening? Is something wrong with my eyes?" You may wonder at what you see. Don't worry.
    Here is how it goes:

    information. However, sometimes our brains interpret the received information in a wrong way. It seems that
    our eyes are playing a joke on us. This often happens and we call it "Visual illusion" (视觉错误). 
         Movie makers often make use of illusions. They make the objects around actors much smaller or bigger than
    usual. This makes us believe that the actors are much larger or smaller than they usually are. The movies
    Jurassic Park and Honey I shrunk the kids just make use of illusions.
