At that time Yangzhou was a famous port and one of few biggest cities in East Asia.With the improvement of the local economy and easy transportation way, there happened in the history a special local culture, which has an important place in Chinese culture. Many famous men of letters, poets, artists, scholars(学者), statesmen, scientists and national heroes in the history were born in, lived in or had connection with Yangzhou.

Yangzhou：A Famous Tour CityCA recent survey of 2000 parents in Britain showed that they are often afraid of science questions asked by their curious children only because they have no idea what the answer is. Here is a list of some simple questions that you can ask your parents to see if they know the answers. Q: Why is the sky blue? A: You probably know white sunlight is made up of seven colors. While it moves in a straight line when going through space, it starts to divide as it hits “raised area” in the atmosphere. The ones with longest wavelengths pass through easily. The blue , however , can be taken in by the gas molecules (分子) because it has a shorter wavelength , which in turn scatters (使分散) it in different directions. Thats why when you look up at the sky, it appears to be blue. Q:Why does the moon sometimes appear during the daytime? A: The simple answer to that is because just like any other object it is being lit by the sun. As long as it is around 45 degrees or even 90 degrees off the sun, it will receive light and be able to be seen. The only time it is not able to be seen during its 28-day orbit (轨道) around the earth is when it is right between the earth and the sun. Thats because its back , which is not lit by the sun, is facing us. Q: Where do birds/ honeybees go in winter? A: While the bird part is quite easy, since a lot of them get together and travel, the honeybee part is likely to puzzle your parents. It turns out that these busy insects stop being that active when the temperature drops below 50F. Instead ,they get together in the lower central area of the hive （蜂巢）and form a ball around their queen. This helps keep both warm enough to survive the cold winter months.( ) 38. The sky looks blue mainly because the color blue in the sunlight_.A. has the longest wavelength among all the colorsB. cannot be taken in by the gas moleculesC. doesnt hit “raised area” in the atmosphereD. cannot pass through space successfully( ) 39. How long cant the moon be seen during the daytime in a month? A. 2 B. 28 C.30 D. 31( ) 40. What do honeybees choose to do when the temperature drops below 50F?A. They choose to be active in the wild.B. They choose to keep themselves warm.C. They choose to travel to a warm place.D. They choose to get together in the upper central area of the hive.( ) 41. What is NOT explained in the passage?A. Why is the sky blue?B. Why is the moon able to be seen during the daytime?C. Why do birds travel in winter?D. Where do honeybees go in winter?DSports can help you keep fit and close to nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should realize that sport you choose might have great influence on the environment. Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also lots of water. Besides, huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses（球场）in good condition. This causes major environmental changes. For example, in the dry places of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for (为.承担责任） serious water shortage(短缺) in some local areas. There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You dont need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes, and you dont have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also help you stay healthy. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and keep thin. Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener than by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be green gyms. They are better replacements(替代) for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership(会员身份) And best of all, its free.( ) 42. Which of following does the author most probably support according to the passage? A. Bicycling around the lake. B. Car racing on the road. C. Playing basketball in a gym. D. Swimming in a sports center.( ) 43. What does the phrase resource-hungry in this passage mean in Chinese? A. 广为流行的. B. 亲近自然的. C.低成本的. D. 耗费资源的.( ) 44. The author uses power walking as an example mainly because A. it is an outdoor sport. B. it is loved by many people. C. it uses fewer recourses. D. it is supported by experts.( ) 45. The author writes the passage to_. A. show us disadvantages of golf. B. encourage us to take part in green sports.
