Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫）,but birds cant easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown color as crops have. Some other insects with different colors 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 will find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quickly through the forest. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colors much like the trees.Have you ever noticed an even more strange fact? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid（液体）when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.根据短文内容，选择最佳选项，将其标号在答题卡上涂黑。（1）What are the special colors of different animals or insects used for? A . Showing their beauty.B .

There are a lot of myths about the human brain.One of the biggest myths is that we only use 10 percent of our brains. The next part of the myth is that if we can learn to use the rest of our brains, then well be much smarter. People say this all the time, but its absolutely not true! The truth is that although we dont know everything about the human brain, we know that each part of it has an important function (功能). Modern scientists think the 10 percent myth ridiculous(荒谬的).The other most popular myth is about being right brained or left brained. According to this myth, people who use the right side of their brains are more artistic and creative. People who use the left side of their brains are better at math and science. This is as popular as the 10 percent myth, and its also wrong. In 2013, a study at an American university examined the right brain and left brain myth. According to the study, we use both sides of our brains equally (相等地).Its true that we use different parts of our brains for different things. We use our left side for language more, and our right side when we need to pay attention. But there is no evidence (证据) that creative people use the right side more, or that scientific people use the left side more.Weve talked about myths, so lets look at a few interesting facts about the brain. First of all, the brain feels no pain. Second, about 75 percent of the brain is made of water. Its also the fattest organ in your body. Heres another interesting fact about the brain. Around the time you turn 18 years old, it stops growing.（1）The underlined word This in Paragraph 3 refers to . A . the left brain mythB . the right brain and left brain mythC . the use of human brainsD . the study of an American university（2）According to the facts mentioned in the passage, _ may use the left brain more. A . Robert, who is learning EnglishB . Kate, who is drawing picturesC . Jenny, who is designing clothesD . Jacob, who is doing research（3）Which of the following is TRUE about the human brain? A . It is growing all life long.B . The right side is used more by artists.C . Some parts of it are not used at all.D . Three quarters of it is made of water.（4）The passage mainly tells about _. A . the growing of the brainB . different functions of the brainC . right brain and left brainD . myths and facts about the brain15. （10分）根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。Have you been asked for money by some disabled beggars (乞丐) while youre enjoying shopping?
