Reading Comprehension （阅读理解）：（共50分）A. Choose the best answer.(根据短文内容，选择恰当的答案)：（共12分）When people put their hands in their pockets, they rarely realize they are using an invention that is only a few hundred years old. For several thousand years, human clothing did not have pockets of any kind. People tied a string, usually of leather, around the neck of a purse to keep things from falling out. These purses were usually tied onto belts. Thieves would try to cut these strings to steal the purses.Near the end of the 1500s, men began to ask for slits(裂口) in their trousers exactly where we have side pockets today. A man still tied the strings of his purse to his belt, but then he pushed the purse through the side slit in his trousers. This made it more difficult for a thief to steal the purse.These purses were also known as pockets even though they were not yet connected to trousers. We dont know who thought out how to put this pocket into side seam(接缝) and made it a part of the trousers for ever. The invention made it easier and quicker to get something from the pocket. No longer did a man have to tie a purse from his belt and then undo the string around it.Shortly after the pocket became a part of trousers for ever, people began to want pockets in other clothes as well. Both women and men asked for them in coats and so on. But they had to take two hands while reaching into the pocket. Finally, people asked for pockets at the hip(臀部) so that it would only take one hand to use the pocket.Travelers in the days of first pockets had journey from town to town in carriages(马车). They began to ask for secret pockets so they could hide small expensive things from the robbers. The robbers could not always find a secret pocket inside a piece of clothing. Today, business jackets for both men and women still have these inside pockets to protect them.Modern travellers sometimes still use purses like those of long ago. Today tourists can buy small, flat bags around the neck or waist for their passports and money. Then, even if thieves steal briefcases or womens handbags, tourists will still have the most important papers and money in need. Three purposes have shaped the history of pockets. The first is safety. To prevent theft, pockets have been inside business jackets as secret places for expensive things. Pockets also developed because people wanted to reach money, keys, pens, tissue and other items quickly and easily. The third purpose of pockets was the last one to develop. 69. People have had pockets in their clothes _. A) since 150 yearsB) since 1500C) for a few hundred yearsD) for several thousand years70. People began putting their purses in side slits in their trousers because _. A) it was harder for the purses to be stolenB) the purses were less likely to be lostC) they didnt like the purses tied to beltsD) robbers could hardly see the purses71.People started asking for pockets in trousers for ever because _.A) people were able to warm their handsB) this made it easier to get to the pocket C) it was hard to find the leather to make pursesD) it was cheap to have pockets than to make purses.72. Pockets kept peoples things safe. What is another reason why people liked pockets?A) Pockets were nice to look atB) Pockets were never be lostC) Pockets hold more than pursesD) Pockets were easier to use73. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A) Some tourists put passports and money in small, flat bags.B) Both women and men asked for pockets in coats and so on.C) Safety is the last purpose of pockets to develop.D) Nobody knows who first made the pockets.74.

Colours in them seem to be mainly used to p 81 themselves.Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot e 82 catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours with the changes of the colours of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change into the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests whose colours are different from plants are easy to be f 83 and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for live and appear only at night.If you study the animals life, youll find the m 84 use of colours. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters because their colours are much l 85 the trees.Colours are useful not only on the land, but also in the sea.
