  • 阅读短文,判断正误(正确的写T,错误的写F)。
        
         Imagine the year is 1666 and we can see a student called Isaac Newton. He's away from his university
    for a holiday and at home with his family. Isaac Newton continues to study at home. He enjoys physics and
    thinking about the mysteries of the world. 
         On a day when there is rain and sun at the same time he sees a beautiful rainbow in the sky. It has many
    different colours, he is told that there are five. Newton wants to have his own rainbow because he wants to
    look at it closely. He decides to do an experiment. On a sunny day he goes inside a small room and he makes
    the room very dark. Then he makes a small hole and the sun comes inside, it's a small ray of light. It's white.
    Newton takes a prism (棱镜) and holds it up to the light. The ray of light goes through the prism, but it isn't
    white now there are many colours. The prism has split up (分解) the white light into different colours: Newton
    has a rainbow.
         Newton looks at his rainbow carefully. He can see more than five colours, he can see seven. He says the
    colours are: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
         But Newton is a scientist and he's always very interested in how things work. He has his rainbow but he
    wants to know more. So he takes another prism and holds it up to the rainbow. The rainbow goes through the
    second prism, but it isn't colourful now-it's white again. The prism has joined up the colours back into white
    light. Newton is the first person to understand that light is a combination of all the rainbow colours together. 
         Newton also understands how we can see colour. Imagine a leaf in the sunshine. All the rainbow colours
    fall on the leaf but it absorbs (吸收) all these colours. The only colour that is reflected (反射) is green, so the
    leaf looks green. Different objects reflect different colours. And perhaps Newton's favourite fruit is an
    orange-but what came first, the name of the fruit or the name of the colour?
    (     )1. In 1666 Isaac Newton was a university student learningphysics.                           
    (     )2. Newton was told that there were five colours in a rainbow and he believed it.            
    (     )3. Newton used a prism to split up the white light from the sun.                            
    (     )4. Newton understood that light was a combination (复合) of all the rainbow colours together.
    (     )5. Different objects reflect the same colours.

         One day when he saw many toys in a toy shop, he had an idea. "Why not do some kind of things and relax

         Almost all people like flowers. Some people like flowers because of their smells, shapes, colors and so
    on. Others like flowers because they think different flowers mean different things. Flowers have their own
    language. For example, red roses mean"love" and sunflowers mean "loyalty" (忠诚). So people in more than
    100 countries have chosen their own national flowers which say something about their countries' spirit.
    In 1994, China talked about choosing a national flower. Some people liked the peony (牡丹) but others liked
    the plum blossom (梅花). They couldn't agree with each other. So it has not been decided yet.
         People like to buy different flowers in different seasons. Where do all the beautiful flowers in shops come
    from? They may come from far away, so their price is higher.
        a. Farmers grow flowers in their fields.

        c. Flower shopkeepers buy flowers from the flower markets. They look at the flowers and throw away
    the broken or bad ones. They cut the flowers to make them more beautiful. 
        d. You go to buy the flowers in the shops. When you buy a flower, you're paying lots of people: the farmer,
    the driver of the plane or train or bus. The seller in the flower market and the flower shopkeeper.
         So you'd better keep your flowers from far away for a long time. But how? Why not dry them? It's easy!
    Sand drying is a way. Dry, clean sand is one of the oldest things for drying flowers. And it's one of the
    cheapest. 
         ● Fill a box half-way with sand. 
         ● Put the flowers on top of the sand.

         Trees are one of the oldest "citizens (公民)" of our Earth. They keep our air clean, reduce noise pollution,
    improve water quality (质量) and provide food and building materials.
         Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At l to 3 years old, young trees learn how to protect
    themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns (刺) to warn animals not to go near. Most young trees have
    large, deep green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food and energy.
         当小树成长到四岁的时候,它们成长开始加速并且变得足够强壮以面对未来生命中的挑战。  At the
    age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit.
        It is not until the tree is 20 to 25 years old that it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. Not
    only does the adult tree give us shade, oxygen (氧气) and natural beauty; it is also a great place for a tree
    house, or a place for us to nap, read a book, listen to music or sip.(小口喝) tea. If we give the adult tree
    proper care, it will continue to live healthily for many years.
         Gradually (渐渐地), trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their
    important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow (空心的) or part of it becomes dead, it provides a
    home to small animals' and is a source of food for many other animals.
        In many ways, the life of a tree is similar (相似的) to our own life experience. When we are looking at the
    life of a tree, we learn about that each period of life brings its own form of joy and challenge. Enjoy every
    minute of the life of the trees and take care of the trees!
    1. How do young trees protect themselves? And why do they have large, deep green leaves?

    2. Why should we enjoy every minute of our own life?
