AHave you wondered why different animals or pests have their particular colours？Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Birds，especially seagulls are very fond of locusts (蝗虫)，but birds can’t easily catch locusts because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colour of crops.When crops are green，locusts look green.But when crops are ripe，locusts take on exactly the same brown colour as crops have.Some other pests with different colours from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies.So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal life in any part of the world，you will find the main use of colouring is to protect them.Bears，wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests.They are usually invisible (can’t be seen) to the eyes of hunters，because they have the colour much like the bark(树皮) of trees.An even more strange act remains to be noticed.A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger.While the liquid is over，its enemies cannot find it，and it quickly swims away.Thus，it has existed up to now though it is not powerful at all.21.This passage mainly talks about .A.the change of colour in locustsB.animals or pests can dye(染色) themselves different coloursC.how a certain sea fish protects itselfD.the protective colour of animals and pests答案 D解析主旨大意题。

In the warm waters of an ancient seacoast, a little mass（一小团物质） was formed of water, chemicals, and salts. This little mess had something which nothing on earth had had before: the power to recreate itself to fit surrounding conditions. In a word: life. If life could be created then, why does it not happen today? Part of the answer is that the world now is very different from what it was when it was new. Long ago there was no other life to destroy very those very small bits of living matter. Now it is probable that they would be destroyed by bacteria(细菌).The oldest age for life was once thought to be 1,900,000,000 years. But in 1965, Dr. Melvin Calvin of the university of California, and a group of scientists, found tiny-substances that were 2,700,000,000 years old. In Africa other tiny substances were found that were 3,000,000,000 years old. It was formerly thought that no life had existed on earth during this period of time. Today we have thousands of different kinds of plant and animallife. Yet all of them have one thing in common: their origin（起源） in the sea.1.

We grow hybrid rice and use animal wastes to make the soil rich.)Has anyone of you ever been to the countryside? What did you do there?(For reference: I went to Chuankou the day before yesterday.

They are the bases of the traditional food in North China. )If you had the chance to do one thing to help end hunger in the world, what would you do?(For reference: I would try to end hunger by popularizing the advanced farming techniques.

Wetlands act like giant sponges during storms.They soak up extra storm water and afterward release it slowly back into the water cycle.This helps prevent flooding.Towns where people have drained wetlands have found that in a big storm，their streets and homes are often flooded because there are no wetlands to soak up the excess water. Wetlands also act as giant filters where pollutants are absorbed and dissolved over time.Though wetlands can become polluted from dumping，wastewater，and fertilizer runoff from farm fields，they are able to process some pollutants over time because of all the microorganisms and plants living there. Wetlands are especially important for providing homes and breeding grounds to millions of birds，fish，and amphibians worldwide.Many wetlands have become national wildlife refuges，where you can go to take pictures and look at birds and animals. The Everglades are a huge wetland that once covered more than four million acres
