18、ch of the following passages is followed with five questions. For each question there are four choices. Choose the best answer to each question. Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:If we observe carefully, we can find that m
19、ost of the flowers in nature are red, orange and yellow. If we have seen a black flower, its a chance in a million. People have made a census (普查) to colors of more than four thousand kinds of flowers and discovered that only eight of them are black. Why?As we know, sunlight is formed by seven diffe
20、rent kinds of colored light. The wave length of each light changes, so the quantity of heat in each light changes, too. Flowers, especially their petals (花瓣), are very delicate (纤弱) and prone (易于) to the harm caused by high temperature. Black flowers can take in all the light waves, which cause the
21、flowers to dry up in a high temperature. So black flowers can rarely survive sunlight. But red flowers, orange flowers and yellow flowers can protect themselves from sunlight by reflecting (反射) the red light, orange light and yellow light, each of which has a large quantity of heat.That is why red,
22、orange and yellow flowers are very common in nature while black flowers are so rare. 41. We can hardly find black flowers because . A. they are so weak that its difficult for them to grow up B. there are no black flowers in the world C. the petals of black flowers are very delicate D. they can take

26、ng passage:There are stock markets in large cities in many countries. Stock markets in Paris, London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock market, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell the shares of a factory or company. And
27、each share means part ownership of a factory or company. Different people go to the stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks to try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as part of their plan to save money. Of course, investi
28、ng (投资) money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money. No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may do badly. Then the stocks will go down, and the investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Ever
29、yone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory or company does a good job, the stock may still go down. No wonder going to the stock market is often compared to gambling（赌博）.

34、rican social customs and those of other countries is the way in which names are used. Americans have little concern for rank, especially socially. Most Americans do not want to be treated in any especially respectful way because of their age or social rank; it makes them feel uncomfortable. Many Ame
35、ricans even find the terms Mr, Mrs or Miss too formal. People of all ages may prefer to be called by their first names. Dont call me Mrs Smith, just call me Sally. Using only first names usually indicates friendliness and acceptance. However, if you do not feel comfortable using only first names, it
36、 is quite acceptable to be more formal.
