How high is it? What color is it? What birds can live above it? These questions are difficult to answer, arent they? In fact, the sky has no color. Then why does the sky look blue? We know that there is air around the world. When planes fly, they need air to lift their wings. Planes cant fly very high. That is because the air gets thinner when they go higher. The same will happen to us if we go high enough. If we go up about 1, 200 kilometers from the earth, well find no air there. Some birds can fly into the sky as high as a plane, but they cannot fly or live without air. Looking up above us, you will see the blue sky with white clouds. It is usually light blue. The color would be bluer when you see on the top of a high mountain. And you will see fewer clouds in the sky between you and the sun. Sometimes the sky doesnt look blue. When the sun rises and falls, you will see red, orange, and other colors in the sky. Such are the most beautiful moments of the day. Who can see the colors of the sky high above the earth? The astronauts! They can see those beautiful colors of the sky from the outer space. However, before flying into outer space, they sit in a spaceship high above the earth, and there is no air at all. The sky would be that dark and its color would be black. Now you may understand that we see colors because the air scatters(使散射) the sunlight. light travels through the air. Without air, there would be no light or colors. （1）Planes cant fly as high as possible because_. A . the sky is blueB . the wings are heavierC . the sky has no colorD . the air becomes thinner（2）When you stand on the top of a high mountain, you will see_. A . more airB . the bluer skyC . more colorsD . more clouds（3）In Ningbo, we might see many colors in the sky at _during the day.

A . its colorful itselfB . the world is colorfulC . the sunlight has colorsD . the air scatters the sunlight18. （6分）阅读理解AWaste can be seen everywhere in the school.

But I dont agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources, we are short of others, such as fresh water.
