We see color because objects reflect light. Something that is red reflects mostly red light. (It reflects a
24、little green or blue light, too, but we do not see it.) In the same way, a green object reflects mostly green light. White objects reflect all colors of light. Black objects do not reflect any light. What happens to the colors of light that are not reflected? They are absorbed by the object. The dar
25、ker the color, the less light is reflected and the more light is absorbed. Light that is absorbed is turned into heat. For this reason, dark-colored clothes are warmer in the sunlight than light colored clothes.56. According to the passage, the sky looks blue because the atmosphere_.A. reflects most

29、her you cure my wife or you kill her I will give you all this.”The doctor was reassured and went into the house. When he reached the womans bedside it soon became clear to him that he could do little. She was seriously ill, and though he prescribed(开处方) her medicine, she soon died.He told the lawyer
30、 he was very sorry, expressing his condolences(慰问), and then asked for the money which he had been promised.“Did you kill my wife?” asked the man.“Of course I didnt .” said the doctor.“Well!

35、eral times, you will find that each version is better than the last.2. Why not learn with someone else?It helps if you can learn English with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or family member to study with you, it will make you keep working.3. Dont get stuck by a word you dont know.Languag
36、e learning is also about intuition(直觉).Guesswork is an important way to learn English. When listening to recorded material, you arent expected to understand everything for the first time.

37、sometimes a proper dictionary is necessary.4. Build up your vocabulary.A wide vocabulary is the key(关键) to learning English well but dont try to learn too much at once.

41、 sure of that was on September 11.I usually wake up a 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning. That day, I happened to wake up earlier.

43、nt understand how something this terrible could have happened.It wasnt until a few weeks after September 11 that I began to see that perhaps some good did come from this tragedy (悲剧).

44、fore are no longer big things. Personally, I am more tolerant than I was. I realize life is too short, and too precious(珍贵的), to let myself get worried over small things.

49、merican National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA, 1999) shows that around 2% of the population over age 12 were using drugs non-medically.72. NIDA views medications as a powerful force for good in the contemporary world. They reduce and remove pain for millions of people suffering from illness and dis
