    If we observe carefully, we van find that most of the flowers in nature are red, orange and yellow. If we have seen a black flower, it’s a chance in million. People have made a census(普查)to colours of more than four thousand kinds of flowers and discovered that only eight of them are black. Why?
    As we know, sunlight is formed by seven different kinds of coloured light. The wave length of each light changes, so the quantity of heat in each light changes, too. Flowers, especially their petals(花瓣), are very delicate(纤弱) and prone(易于) to the harm caused by high temperature. Black flowers can take in all the light waves, which cause the flowers to dry up in a high temperature. So black flowers can rarely survive sunlight. But red flowers, orange flowers and yellow flowers can protect themselves from sunlight by reflecting the red light, orange light and yellow light, each of which has a large quantity of heat.
    That is why red, orange and yellow flowers are very common in nature while black flowers are so rare.

    1. 1.

      We can hardly find black flowers because  _____.

      1. A.
        they are so weak that it’s difficult for them to grow up

        there are no black flowers in the world.
      3. C.
        the petals of black flowers are very delicate

        they can take in the light of all wave lengths, which make the flowers dry up
    2. 2.

      Sunlight is formed by _____.

      3. C.
        seven different kinds of coloured light
      4. D.
        four thousand kinds of coloured light
    3. 3.

      The red, orange or yellow light contains _____.

      1. A.
        less heat than the other lights
      2. B.
        more heat than the other lights
      3. C.
        a great deal of heat
      4. D.

    Matt grows the best vegetables in the village. He grows fruit too – big, sweet apples and oranges. And what else? Well, the biggest and the prettiest flowers.
    Things grow in Matt’s garden all through the year. He cuts some flowers for his sitting room table; and of course , he eats some fruit and vegetables. But he sells everything else in the market. Matt is not a poor man.
    He knows a few other gardens; but he does not have any friends. You might ask, “What is that?” Why doesn’t he have friends. I will tell you. People do not understand him. And they do not understand his garden. “Why not?” You will ask. “It is a very good garden, isn’t it?” It is a wonderful garden. Matt plants things in spring, summer, autumn and winter. After that he does very little work. He sits in the garden with his small radio. And everything grows.
    People ask, “How does Matt grow these wonderful things? He waters the plants sometimes, but he doesn’t do anything else. He just sits under an orange tree with his radio. He listens to music nearly all day!” and that is all quite true. People cannot understand it, and so they don’t like it very much.
    Matt likes music. But what about the garden? Who does the work? I will tell you another true thing: the music does the work. All plants love music; and Matt knows that.

    In the dining room of my grandfather's house stood a giant grandfather clock.Meals in that dining room were a time for four generations to become one.The table was always spread with food containing love as the main ingredient.And that grandfather clock stood like an old family friend, watching over the laughter that was a part of our lives.
    As a child, the old clock fascinated me.I watched and listened to it during meals.Even more wonderful to me was my grandfather's routine.He wound (上发条) that clock with a special key carefully each day.That key was magic to me.It kept our family's magnificent clock ticking and chiming.I remember watching as my grandfather took the key from his pocket and opened the hidden door in the clock.He inserted the key and wound — not too much, nor too little.He never let that clock wind down and stop.He showed us grandchildren how to open the door and let us each take turns winding the key.I remember the first time I did it I was so excited to be part of this family routine.
    After my grandfather died, it was days after the funeral before I remembered the clock!
    "Mama! The clock! We've let it wind down."
    The tears flowed freely when I entered the dining room.The clock stood there quiet.It even seemed smaller without my grandfather's special touch.
    Some time later, my grandmother gave me the clock and the key.The old house was quiet.No laughter over the dinner table, no ticking or chiming of the clock — all was still.I took the key in my shaking hand and opened the clock door.All of a sudden, I was a child again, watching my grandfather with his silver-white hair and blue eyes.He was there, winking at me, at the secret of the clock's magic, at the key that held so much power.
    I stood, lost in the moment for a long time.Then slowly and carefully I inserted the key and wound the clock.It came back to life.Tick-tock, tick-tock, life and chimes were breathed into the dining room, into the house and into my heart.In the movement of the hands of the clock, my grandfather lived again.

    They crossed in front of me as I was driving out of the store parking lot. My first reaction was anger at being delayed for a whole ten seconds. I quickly became patient when I realised that this was an elderly couple.
    The man leaned on his wife who walked in front of him. He not only used her for support but it was obvious that he was blind. The two of them worked as one---each needing the other to function in this fast-changing world.
    That little example of true strength changed my whole personal perception(理解) of life that day. Suddenly I wasn’t so mad about having to work a few extra hours on Saturdays. I had my strength, and I was still relatively young.
    That picture of those two elderly people walking with dignity and strength stayed with me the entire week. My life wasn’t so bad after all. I had my health and a good job. I had a wonderful, supportive wife. I started to think---not only was I lucky to have it all, but so was that wonderful old couple, who, despite the trials and sufferings of a long life, still had the love and support of each other to carry them through this world.
    There are so many people out there just like that couple. My wife and I sometimes picture ourselves in our old age, walking arm-in-arm into the sunset. That image always gives us a warm feeling of comfort. Just remember, none of us would be here if it wasn’t for our elders. We should all have a little extra time and patience when it comes to helping our elder friends.

        seldom think of his wife

    TIPPING
    How much and who on your cruise(乘船旅游) should be tipped? When and how should tips be given? Generally, you should plan to tip your room steward (服务员) $3.00 to $3.50 per person, per day, and plan an equal amount for your dining room waiter, and half of that for the busboy（餐厅侍者助手）.
    On most ships, tip the maitre d’(侍者总管) or dining room captain only if you ask for special favors or table-side service; $5 to $10 is normal. Barmen and wine stewards are tipped 10 to 15 percent, but many cruise lines will add this tip to your bar or drink bill. Check the bill to see how it is handled. Also, tips for special services such as salon && spa treatments and room service are left to the guest, depending on services offered. Sometimes tips are placed in envelopes from your cabin’s stationery supply. Generally, passengers on cruises of 10 days or less will tip at the end of the cruise； on longer voyages, tipping weekly.
    As part of a new trend that seems likely to grow, Carnival, Holland America, Norwegian, Princess and Cunard now charge tips to your account (账). Norwegian, for example, charges $10 per day, per guest, to cover service in the various dining rooms and your room steward. If you feel this amount needs to be increased or decreased, arrangements can be made onboard the ship, generally at the end of your cruise.
    A few lines do not encourage tipping, including Radisson Seven Seas, Seabourn, Silversea and Windstar. Crew members are reportedly higher paid and not tip dependent. Many passengers tip anyway for outstanding service or special favors and give them tips face to face immediately they get serviced.
    Tips on Tipping
    Cabin steward
    $3.00 to $3.50 per person per day
    Waiter
    $3.00 to $3.50 per person per day
    Assistant waiter
    $1.50 to $2.00 per person per day
    Bartender, wine and deck stewards
    10-15% of the bill
    Maitre d’
    $5.00 to $10.00 tip for each special service

      4. D.
