Do you know why different animals or pests（害虫）have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts, but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colouring is protecting themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the tree.
Have you ever noticed an even more strange act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, the enemies cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it isn’t strong at all.From the passage we can learn that locusts _______．
| A．are small animals |
| B．are easily found by birds |

| A．Because it is very strong. |
| B．Because the liquid it sends out can help it get away from its enemies. |
| C．Because the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies. |
| D．Because it swims faster than any other fish. |

What is colour? Why do some of the things around us look red, some green, others blue?
Colours are really made by reflected (反射) light. We see colour because most of the things reflect light. Something is red, for it reflects most of the red light. In the same way, if something is green, it reflects most of the green light. If something reflects all light, it is white. If it doesn’t reflect any light, it is black.
Some of the light is reflected and some is taken in (吸收) and turned into heat. The darker the colour is, the less light is reflected, the more light is taken in. So dark-coloured clothes are warmer in the sun than light-coloured clothes.When something reflects light, we can _______ .
| A．see its colour | B．see its heat |
| C．not see its colour | D．see nothing |
The dark-coloured clothes are warm because _________ is taken in.
| A．more light | B．less light |
| C．more colour | D．less colour |
In summer ________ make people feel cool.
| A．dark-coloured clothes |
| B．red-coloured clothes |
| C．green-coloured clothes |
| D．light-coloured clothes |
When trouble comes， what do we usually do? We pick up our mobile phones and call for help. That’s easy， right? But in an emergency， many people are unable to call for help. Floods and earthquakes come suddenly. Wars can hurt or kill. Successful communication can sometimes mean the difference between life and death.
Meet French NGO Telecoms Sans Frontiers (Telecommunications Without Borders (边际)). Its goal is to use mobile communication technology (技术) to help people in need. TSF began in 1998. First， they opened their main base (总部) in France. Then in 2003， they started another base in Nicaragua. The next year they opened their Thailand base. Now if a disaster hits anywhere in the world， TSF is ready. They can send workers to a disaster area to set up communication systems within 24 hours.
Once TSF arrives at a disaster area， they set up telephone connections (连接点）and Internet service. They share these services with other international helpers on the scene such as the UN or UNICEF. Mobile communication helps other volunteers do their jobs better.
TSF also offers three-minute phone calls to local people who need to contact their loved ones. These communications can allow people to get together again after being separated (分开). Often the callers are moved to tears after speaking to a relative found to be still alive. Then the families can decide on a safe course of action for their family members.
Since 1998， TSF has helped thousands of people in many countries. Most of the TSF workers does not get paid with money， but the satisfaction（满足）of helping others and changing lives is often a great reward.Telecoms Sans Frontiers is __________.
