    If we are driving a car or crossing a street, we will stop when the traffic lights turn red. Why do we use red rather than other colors?
    As we know, scattering (散射) happens when light goes through the air. For the same media, if the wavelength (波长) is long, the scattering will be short. If the wavelength is short, then the scattering will be long.
    Of all light we can see red has the longest wavelength, so the scattering is the weakest. That means the red light travels far. In fact, it travels farther on rainy days.
    Using the red light can help drivers in farther areas see the lights. It helps drivers slow down or stop in time. If drivers don’t see the red light until they are close, they may not be able to stop the car in time. An accident may happen. Red can also excite people. We can act more quickly when we see the color red.
    In a word, red light helps drivers stop in time and help prevent accidents.
    小题1:______ has the longest wavelength of all light we can see.
    A．RedB．GreenC．YellowD．Black
    小题2:Red light travels farther on ______ days.
    A．windyB．sunnyC．rainyD．cloudy
    小题3:Red can make people act more quickly because ____________.
    A．red can make people happierB．the scattering of red is very short
    C．the scattering of red is very longD．red can make people more excited
    小题4:The underlined word “prevent” means ______ in Chinese.
    A．逃避B．防止C．处理D．检查
    小题5:The passage mainly tells us ____________.
    A．why accidents happenB．how the red light travels
    C．why we use red traffic lightsD．how to stop in time at traffic lights

    小题1:A
    小题1:C
    小题1:D
    小题1:B
    小题1:C

    小题1:根据we can see red has the longest wavelength,描述可知选A。
    小题1:根据In fact, it travels farther on rainy days. 可知选C。
    小题1:根据Red can also excite people. We can act more quickly when we see the color red. 可知选D。
    小题1:根据上文stop in time 及时停止，可知下文句意为预防阻止事故，故选B。

    There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement(通告) board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.
    Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking(寻找) workers.
    Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist(网站名)Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.

For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin（奥斯丁 (美国得克萨斯州首府)） can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.
    Some experts(专家) also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles.

    If we want to deal with the association(社交) between boys and girls properly, here are some “dos and don’ts” for you to follow.
    Keep a normal and healthy state of mind. Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls. It is very nature for the boys and girls to make friends with each other. We should make as many friends as possible. We should keep touch with the other sex(性别) in public instead of in secret.
    Don’t be too nervous or too shy. If you are a shy person, you can also find a way out. First of all, you can make friends with the students who have the same interest and hobby as you. As both of you have much in common, you may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others.
    Don’t fall into the ditch of early love. The boys and girls at a adolescence (青春期) are rich in feeling. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, early love is a green apple that can’t be eaten. An apple won’t taste sweet until it is full ripe. Boys and girls at middle school are too young to carry the heavy duty of love. Do keep out of early love.
    小题1:We should keep touch with the other sex in following ways EXCEPT _______.
    A．with a good state of mindB．in real friendship
    C．in publicD．in secret
    小题2:What does the underlined word “ditch” mean?
    A．波浪B．泥潭C．圈套D．迷惑
    小题3:The main idea of the passage is to _______.
    A．tell students to keep away from early love
    B．tell students how to make friends
    C．teach boys how to talk with girls
    D．give some advice on how to associate between boys and girls

    阅读短文，根据内容判断正误。正确的选“A”，错误的选“B”
    Blogs (博客) are the place where young people go to reveal(释放) their souls（灵魂）. Many people enjoy the freedom in blogging. Some, however, find that putting one’s life online can have a price. Some students in America got suspensions (暂停) because on their blogs they posted threatening words to their teachers.
    Recent surveys found that nearly one fifth of teens who have access to the Web have their own blogs. And 38% of teens say they read other people’s blogs. By comparison, about a tenth of adults have their own blogs and a quarter say they read other people’s online journals.
    With the development of the Internet, more and more people will be engaged in blogging.
    In another survey, 79% of teens agreed that people at their age aren’t careful enough when giving out information about themselves online. Besides, careless blogging can also affect blog viewers. When you are angry or frustrated, your blog is the first place you turn to. The words you post then may not be rational which you may regret(后悔) later. To reduce the negative effect, change the permission setting and make such posts “private” so that only you can read them.
    As long as you are careful with what you post, blogging is a great means of staying in touch with friends and displaying one’s creative works.
    小题1:      Blogs are the place where people go online to express themselves freely.
    小题2:     The fact that some American students got suspensions is used to show that people should not put their life online. 

    20070212

     
    小题3:      The underline word “rational” in the fifth paragraph probably means reasonable（合理的）.

    小题4:     The passage is mainly about advantages and disadvantages of blogs.
    小题5:     Recent surveys found that over 50％ of teens who have access to the Web have their    own blogs.
