Many f us have seen rainbws in the sky nce the sun starts shining again after it rains. Fr us t see a rainbw, the cnditins need t be just right. We need sme water drps in the air, like rain r even fg, and we need the Sun t be behind us and quite lw t the grund. This is because a rainbw is created by light passing thrugh water drps.
The light that cmes frm the sun seems white t us. But the white light we see is made up f a mix f different clrs. When the light ges thrugh a raindrp, these clrs can separate ut.
Each f the clrs in the rainbw has a different "wavelength"（波长）. Raindrps lk like little balls. When light hits ne f these little balls f water, the light can change directin. We call this “refractin”（折射）, Each f the different wavelengths is refracted differently. If the light hits the raindrp at the right place, the refractin separates the wavelengths ut int their different clrs.
We are taught there are seven clrs: red, range, yellw, green, blue, indig and vilet. But this isn't exactly true. Blue and green are next t each ther in the rainbw, which is why we can see turquise (a mix f blue and green). Brwn is a mix f red and green. But they aren't next t each ther in the rainbw, s we dn't see them mix t make brwn.
We wuld never see black and white in a rainbw. Black is what we see when there's n light at all. On the ther hand, white is a mix f all the clrs tgether. When light is refracted by raindrps, it separates the white light ut, meaning it is n lnger white.
37. We can see a rainbw under the right cnditins because _____________.
A. the raindrps are like little ballsB. the light ges thrugh raindrps
C. the sunshine seems t be clrfulD. the weather is fggy after it rains
38. Accrding t the passage, what can we knw abut the clrs in the rainbw?
A. They can becme brwn r Hack. B. There are nly seven clrs in all.
C. They mix t make the white light. D. Their wn places can be changed.
39. Which part f a magazine may this passage be taken frm?
A. Science. B. Health. C. Culture. D. Fashin.
40. What's the best title fr the passage?
A. Hw are the clrs received in the rainbw?
B. When can the clrs turn blue in the rainbw?
C. Which clrs aren't cvered with light in the rainbw?
D. Why can't we find white, black and brwn in the rainbw?

Did yu knw that vcabulary (词汇) is mre imprtant than grammar? If yu have gd vcabulary, yu can cmmunicate successfully, even if the grammar is nt cmpletely perfect.
Hwever, ne cmmn prblem is learning new wrds and then frgetting them. S when yu want t use a new wrd in a cnversatin, yu can’t remember it at that mment. Des this ften happen t yu? The reasn fr this difficulty is that mst students try t learn vcabulary by studying lists and dictinaries and remembering the wrds. But it may nt wrk if yu dn’t have a very gd memry.
The best way t learn vcabulary and remember the wrds successfully, is t learn new wrds and use them at nce. Yu can d this with a very simple exercise. Every time yu learn a new wrd, fr example, frm an English lessn r an article, write it dwn in yur vcabulary ntebk. Writing is mre active than just reading a definitin (释义). Yu shuld write the wrd, the definitin in English r translatin, ne example sentence frm the article r dictinary and ne example sentence that yu create.
Imagine yu just learn the wrd “generus”, write in yur vcabulary ntebk: generus (adjective), definitin—giving r willing t give freely. Example ne, frm the article: Thanks fr paying fr my dinner, yu’re very generus. Example tw, my example: My brther is generus because he vlunteers at the animal shelter n weekends. It’s best if yur example sentences are true t yur life, because this creates a persnal cnnectin with the new wrd. The next day, read yur vcabulary ntebk again and try t add ne mre example sentence using the new wrd. It’s helpful fr yu t remember it. These tw simple steps—writing the wrd and using it at nce—help yu remember and use new wrds.
D yu have a vcabulary ntebk? If nt, start nw.

③Cpy an example sentence frm the article r dictinary.
④Read yur ntebk again and add ne mre example sentence.
A. ②③①④B. ②③④①C. ③④②①D. ③②①④

Many f us have seen rainbws in the sky nce the sun starts shining again after it rains. Fr us t see a rainbw, the cnditins need t be just right. We need sme water drps in the air, like rain r even fg, and we need the Sun t be behind us and quite lw t the grund. This is because a rainbw is created by light passing thrugh water drps.
The light that cmes frm the sun seems white t us. But the white light we see is made up f a mix f different clrs. When the light ges thrugh a raindrp, these clrs can separate ut.
Each f the clrs in the rainbw has a different "wavelength"（波长）. Raindrps lk like little balls. When light hits ne f these little balls f water, the light can change directin. We call this “refractin”（折射）, Each f the different wavelengths is refracted differently. If the light hits the raindrp at the right place, the refractin separates the wavelengths ut int their different clrs.
We are taught there are seven clrs: red, range, yellw, green, blue, indig and vilet. But this isn't exactly true. Blue and green are next t each ther in the rainbw, which is why we can see turquise (a mix f blue and green). Brwn is a mix f red and green. But they aren't next t each ther in the rainbw, s we dn't see them mix t make brwn.
We wuld never see black and white in a rainbw. Black is what we see when there's n light at all. On the ther hand, white is a mix f all the clrs tgether. When light is refracted by raindrps, it separates the white light ut, meaning it is n lnger white.
37. We can see a rainbw under the right cnditins because _____________.
A. the raindrps are like little ballsB. the light ges thrugh raindrps
C. the sunshine seems t be clrfulD. the weather is fggy after it rains

A. They can becme brwn r Hack. B. There are nly seven clrs in all.
C. They mix t make the white light. D. Their wn places can be changed.
39. Which part f a magazine may this passage be taken frm?
A. Science. B. Health. C. Culture. D. Fashin.
40. What's the best title fr the passage?
A. Hw are the clrs received in the rainbw?
B. When can the clrs turn blue in the rainbw?
C. Which clrs aren't cvered with light in the rainbw?
D. Why can't we find white, black and brwn in the rainbw?

Did yu knw that vcabulary (词汇) is mre imprtant than grammar? If yu have gd vcabulary, yu can cmmunicate successfully, even if the grammar is nt cmpletely perfect.
Hwever, ne cmmn prblem is learning new wrds and then frgetting them. S when yu want t use a new wrd in a cnversatin, yu can’t remember it at that mment. Des this ften happen t yu? The reasn fr this difficulty is that mst students try t learn vcabulary by studying lists and dictinaries and remembering the wrds. But it may nt wrk if yu dn’t have a very gd memry.
The best way t learn vcabulary and remember the wrds successfully, is t learn new wrds and use them at nce. Yu can d this with a very simple exercise. Every time yu learn a new wrd, fr example, frm an English lessn r an article, write it dwn in yur vcabulary ntebk. Writing is mre active than just reading a definitin (释义). Yu shuld write the wrd, the definitin in English r translatin, ne example sentence frm the article r dictinary and ne example sentence that yu create.
Imagine yu just learn the wrd “generus”, write in yur vcabulary ntebk: generus (adjective), definitin—giving r willing t give freely. Example ne, frm the article: Thanks fr paying fr my dinner, yu’re very generus. Example tw, my example: My brther is generus because he vlunteers at the animal shelter n weekends. It’s best if yur example sentences are true t yur life, because this creates a persnal cnnectin with the new wrd. The next day, read yur vcabulary ntebk again and try t add ne mre example sentence using the new wrd. It’s helpful fr yu t remember it. These tw simple steps—writing the wrd and using it at nce—help yu remember and use new wrds.
D yu have a vcabulary ntebk? If nt, start nw.
38. What des the underlined wrd “it” in paragraph 2 refer t?
A. The prblem.B. The new wrd.C. The cnversatin.D. The dictinary.
39. What’s the crrect rder f the fllwing steps f taking vcabulary ntes?

③Cpy an example sentence frm the article r dictinary.
④Read yur ntebk again and add ne mre example sentence.
A. ②③①④B. ②③④①C. ③④②①D. ③②①④
40. Hw can we make the best example sentences accrding t the writer?
A. By asking fr help frm friends.B. By explaining wrds’ definitins.
C. By cnnecting them with ur life.D. By adding wrds frm the article.
