During the investigation the suspect suddenly told the truth.(1) admittedscreamed(2)outblurted(3)(4) confessed toRead the passage below and answer questions 26 to 30On our table in the garden we put a blue card and all around this blue card we put a number of different grey cards. These grey cards are of all possible shades of grey and include white and black. On each card, a watch-glass (small glass dish) is placed. The watch-glass on the blue card has some syrup in it; all the others are empty. After a short time, the bees find the syrup. They come for it again and again. Then, after some hours, we take away the watch-glass of syrup which was on the blue card and put an empty one in its place.Now, what do the bees do? They still go straight to the blue card, although there is no syrup there. They do not go to any of the grey cards, in spite that one of the grey cards is exactly of the same brightness as the blue card. Thus the bees do not mistake any shade of grey for blue. In this way we have proven that they do really see blue as a colour.We can find out in just the same way what other colours bees can see. It turns out that bees can see various colours, but these insects differ from us with regards to their colour sense in two interesting ways. Suppose we train bees to come to a red card, and, having done so, we put the red card on the table in the garden among the set of different grey cards. This time we find the bees mistake red for dark grey or black.That is one strange fact: here is another. A rainbow is red on one edge, violet on the other. Outside the violet, invisible to us, is call ultra-violet. Although it is invisible, we know that ultra-violet is there because it affects a photographic plate. Now, although we are unable to see ultra-violet light, bees can do so; for them ultra-violet is a colour. Thus bees see a colour which we cannot even imagine. This has been found out by training bees to come for syrup to various parts of a spectrum, or artificial rainbow thrown by a prism on a table in a dark room. In such experiment, the bees can be taught to fly to the ultra-violet, which for us is just darkness.Questions 26 to 30Choose the correct answer for each of the following questions. Write its number in the brackets provided26. The bees in the first experiment wanted to find _______________.(1)syrup(2) blue cardswatch-glasses(3)(4) cards of the same colour27. Bees cannot see the colour ______________.red(1)blue(2)grey(3)black(4)28. The passage is about experiments to find out _______________.(1) how bees feed(2) how to train bees as pets(3) the colour sense of bees(4) whether bees ever make mistakes29. The writer says it is strange that __________________.(1) bees enter a dark room for syrup(2) bees can see a colour which we can’t(3) ultra-violet affects a photographic plate(4) a rainbow is red on one edge and violet on the other30. Which of the following statements is true of the passage?(1) Bees can differentiate between red and black.(2) Bees can differentiate between blue and grey.(3) Syrup has to be placed outdoor to attract bees.(4) In a rainbow, ultra-violet appears between the colours red and violet.There are 10 blanks, numbered 31 to 40, in the passage below. From the list of words given, choose the most suitable word for each blank. Write its letter (A to Q) in the blank.

On the Empress Shoal, as it is called, over one hundred and twenty people defy floods and isolation to maintain a way of life where they still eat with wooden spoons, fasten their dogs to stone locks and fetch water from centuries-old wells.However, it is also a peaceful and fairly prosperous way of life where the ancient ways seem to harmonise happily with electricity, tractors and television.The island, which covers twenty hectares, lies at a sharp bend in the river of Shanxi Hequ country. All the thirty-six households share one family name, Li, and constitute the smallest village in Hequ. The islanders claim to be the descendants of Li Guang, a famous Han general.On the highest point of the island stands a temple where the people pray for a good harvest which they often get, thanks to the fertile soil and plentiful of water. The island’s only link with the outside world is a motorised ferry junk that crosses to the east in fifteen minutes. The isolation has made for a sense of security.Despite the favourable conditions, the islanders face one permanent threat – the flood by the Yellow River, which has made the island shrink by thirteen hectares in the past three hundred years, and driven many away from home. The 1981 flood was the latest and severest in memory submerged all our houses, everything except the temple,” an islander recalls.It happened on the eve of the Lunar New Year. But thanks to the timely rescue by the local government, there was not a single casualty, and most property were saved. To help alleviate the problem, a government fund has been used to build a stone breakwater at the north end of the island. At the same time, brick houses on the east bank of the river, for each household as emergency shelters, has also been build.But the strange thing is that even though people may return to the island to die, they want to be buried on the river bank. The dead are never buried on Empress Shoal, but on hills on the east bank of the river.ALL ANSWERS MUST BE IN COMPLETE SENTENCES76. Who was the ancestor of the thirty-six Li families living on Empress Shoal? ___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ 77. Which word in the passage tells us that the people of Hequ countryappear to balance the ancient and the modern way of life agreeably?___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ 78. What is the population of the smallest village of Hequ country?___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ 79. What makes the islanders feel safe living on Empress Shoal?___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ 80. What are the two difficulties faced by the islanders?___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ 81. How can the islanders get from the island to the east bank of the riverquickly?___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________82. How long does the journey to the east bank take?___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ 83. The Yellow River brings a certain danger to the island. Explain how it doesthat?___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ 84. What was probably the reason for the burial of the dead on the hills on theriver bank and not on Empress Shoal?___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ 85. Why do you think the temple was not submerged in the water caused bythe winter floes on the yellow river?___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________End of paper。
