But I am afrai

15、d you are wrong. If you dont believe, you may do a small experiment.First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by oneIt is certain that

16、 you will think the red one is a little heavier.Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weight in a mans mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest

17、color is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense

18、organs.According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or youll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and fu

19、rniture for two hours, youll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, youll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with diffe

20、rent colors.1The purpose of the second paragraph is to tell us _.Aa red box is heavier than a white one Ba color has weight in ones mindCwhite paper is lighter than red paper Dyou can know the weight of a color by holding it2Why did the scientist say colors have smell?ABecause people can sense the l

21、ight from colors.BBecause we can smell colors with our nose.CBecause every color has its own sweet smell.DBecause every color can give off light of the same length.3If a person walks from a blue room to a red room, his body temperature will _.Arise Bfall Cstay the same Dchange now and then4It can be

22、 implied from the text that _.Acolors have orders in weightBcolors can change the weight of an objectCpeople would stay longer in a room with red windowsDcolors can affect our mood and health5This passage is probably a _.Abook review Bfiction novel Cfairy tale Dscience reportB14、 You put a blue lobs

23、ter (龙虾) in boiling water, and a few minutes later, you take out a red lobster. Have you ever wondered why the lobster changes its color when it is cooked?Scientists at Manchester Universitys school of chemistry in the UK have an answer. They found that a chemical in the shell called astaxanthin (虾青

24、素) causes the lobsters color to change.This chemical is red and is in the shells of both raw and cooked lobsters. But in raw lobsters, the redness of the astaxanthin is covered by the dark blue color of another chemical in the shell, crustacyanin (虾青蛋白).The darker color helps lobsters avoid enemies

25、in the wild. And it is likely to have evolved (进化) by natural selection.However, when heated, the structure of crustacyanin changes. This makes the red color of astaxanthin stand out.This is similar to the changing colors of tree leaves in autumn. Leaves always contain the pigments that make them re

26、d, orange and yellow. But for most of the year, those pigments are covered by the bright green color of chlorophyll (叶绿素). In autumn, when the temperature cools and the suns light becomes weak, chlorophyll fades to make these warm-colored pigments visible (看得见的).“It is a scientific curiosity (神奇), b

27、ut it may also have important uses in the real world,” said John Helliwell, the lead scientist, to The Daily Telegraph. “It could help people know when food has been cooked properly.”1Whose color is red?ACrustacyanin.BAstaxanthin.CChlorophyll.DPigment.2Which of the following is TRUE?ARaw lobsters ha

29、ents in leaves can be seen all year roundDchlorophyll fades when sunlight becomes weaker4What can we learn from the article?AScientific studies can help people live a better life.BNo one knows why lobsters change their colors.CUS scientists discovered the chemical astaxanthin.DSome animals change th
