Colour blindness is a condition in which a person cannot see all colors. This defect(缺陷) is more common in men than in women. About 60 million people in China suffer from such a defect. Usually they can see only two basic colors and live in a black and white world. They are often unable to tell other colors, especially red from green. This defect can bring about problems because many colour-blind people do not realize that their eyesight is defective. They have learned to use the colour names that everyone else uses, and they fail to know that they do not see the colors that others see. There is a risk that their condition may place them in danger. If they mix up red with green, for example, they may be able to tell traffic signals only by their brightness. Scientists believe that color blindness is a defect received from the parents and grandparents, and no medical treatment can make these people see as well as other. However, the well-known eye doctor Zhao Wenging, who has invented looking glasses to help those suffering from color blindness, said that when some of these people tried his invention, their joy was hard to imagine. Somebody said it was like the window that had suddenly been thrown open to his soul. From then on he saw such a beautiful world.

Clothing is a language. It tells us something about a person: his personality, his age, his place in society and so on. If we want to know more about a society, we can look at its traditional clothing.
The continent of Africa has a long history and a rich culture, and this is shown in traditional dress. You often find three colors―red, gold and green ?in the clothing. The first color stands for the blood of millions of people who suffered as slaves； the second is for the rich resources of the African land; the third represents the grasslands of the continent.
The patterns on the clothing also have a meaning. A common pattern is in the form of a cross “X”, which stands for “unity”. Another pattern is a rectangular (长方形的) box, which represents “strength”.
Because clothing has a strong social meaning, people are very careful in choosing what to wear. It would be a serious mistake to wear wrong clothing, or to wear clothes in the wrong way. For example, in Ghana, a woman should wear her waistband (腰带) differently according to the importance of a social event.
Traditional dress also tells us about everyday life. African designs are famous for loose clothing. The climate, with the hot sun and changeable temperatures, requires (要求) that the clothes be comfortable for daily life.
Although many people wear Western clothes, particularly in the big cities in Africa, traditional African dress is very highly valued. This is because it has deep cultural meanings.
5. The main topic of this passage is about _________.
A. the history of clothes in Africa B. fashionable patterns of African dress
C. the meanings of traditional African dressD. the reason for loose clothing in Africa
6. According to the passage, the red color in traditional African dress _________.
A. represents the setting sunB. stands for African unity
C. is chosen because of its bright color D. is a reminder of its sad history
7. In Africa, clothes should be dressed properly according to different situations, because ____.
A. the climate there is changeable B. clothing has a strong social meaning
C. people will be punished if they don’t wear suitable clothes
D. other people want to know the person’s personality
8. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage about traditional African dress?
A. Colors.B. Social meanings. C. Materials.D. Designs.
C
There is no doubt about it. The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously (无意识地). I don’t mean while you’re unconscious. I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in.
That is how I learnt the 30,000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world, mother tongue. I just pick them up. But some of them may be misunderstood. Now, to misunderstand does not mean not to understand. To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.
The 5% mislearnt of all the words we “Know” will be the least frequently used words, as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of the misunderstandings may live with all our lives, without knowing that we got them wrong.
Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one’s own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning. They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game. “There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across,” they will say. “You have to practice guessing what the word means from the context.”
This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work. It may succeed in many cases, but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.
And what’s more, there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves. Our learners’ dictionaries usually have many meanings. A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible.
Don’t guess! Look it up!
9. It is certain that the best way to learn new words it ____. A. to learn them by oneself
B. to learn by living in an English-speaking world and using them frequently
C. to guess them from the context D. to get more separate meanings of each word
10. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refers to _____. A. the 30,000 words
B. English teachers C. misunderstood wordsD. frequently used words
11. Which of the following is most likely NOT true?
A. Some of the words the writer knows must have been misunderstood.
B. Most of the 30,000 words the writer learned are frequently used ones.
C. How many words the writer got wrong are not known.
D. All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.
12. It can be inferred that ___________.
A. when somebody is conscious, he or we usually can’t learn new words by heart
B. We must use the words as often as possible in order to master them
C. it’s the best way to learn new words that one should only guess their meanings from the
context
D. only dictionaries can help us learn language well
