Dear sir，
I ordered a skirt from you last month, but there are some problems with it. First, the color is not as green as it is shown on your website. I understand that the picture does not always show the real color, but it should not be that different. Second, I asked for Size M because it is the size I usually wear. But your Size M is so small that I have to give it to my younger sister.
I think you should be more serious about your business.
Truly，
Susan Rosen
Dear Ms. Rosen，
Thank you for telling us the problems with your order. We hope we can give you better service. We are sending you another skirt with this letter. It is Size L, and its green color is brighter than the one you had. We hope you like it.
Our office hours are 9：00 a. m. － 5：00 p. m. Please call us if you have any more questions.
Yours truly，
Victor Smith

Do you know why different animals or pests have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you'll find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the trees.
Have you ever noticed an even stranger act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of black liquid when they face danger. The liquid spreads over quickly, so they cannot be found by their enemies and can quickly swim away. That is why they can live safely though they aren't strong at all.
73. From the passage we can learn that locusts ____.
A. are small animals
B. are easily found by birds
C. are dangerous to their enemies
D. change their colours to protect themselves
74. How can pests with different colours from plants keep out of danger?
A. They run away quickly.
B. They have the colours much like their enemies.
C. They hide themselves by day and appear at night.
D. They have to move quietly.
75. Bears and lions can keep safe because they ____.
A. have the colours much like the trees
B. move quickly
C. like brown and grey colours
D. live in forests
76. The kind of fish can live up to now because____.
A. they are very big and strong
B. the liquid they send out can help them escape from their enemies
C. the liquid they send out can kill their enemies
D. they swim faster than any other fish
77. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. The Change of Colours for Animals and Pests
B. Colours of Different Animals and Pests
C. The Main Use of Colours for Animals and Pests
D. Some Animals and Pests
C
Have you ever heard someone use the phrase “once in a blue moon”？ People use this expression to describe something that they do not do very often. For example, someone might say that he tries to avoid (避免) eating sweets because they are unhealthy，but will eat chocolate “once in a blue moon”. Or someone who does not usually like to go to the beach might say “I visit the shore once in a blue moon”. While many people use this phrase, not everyone knows the meaning behind it. The first thing to know is that the moon itself is never really blue. This is just an expression. In fact, the phrase “blue moon” has to do with the shape of the moon, not the color.
As the moon travels around the earth, it appears to change shape. We associate (联系) certain names with certain shapes of the moon. For example, when we can see a small part of the moon, it is called a crescent moon(新月). A crescent is a shape that looks like the tip (尖端) of a fingernail (指甲). When we cannot see the moon at all, it is called a new moon. When we can see the whole moon, it is called a full moon. Usually, there is only one full moon every month. Sometimes, however, there will be two full moons in one month. When this happens, the second full moon is called a “blue moon”.
Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons. As you can see, a blue moon is a very rare event. This fact has led people to use the expression “once in a blue moon” to describe other very rare events in their lives.
78. Which of the following would be a good example of using the phrase “once in a blue moon”？
A. Simon often tells jokes. Simon tells jokes once in a blue moon.
B. Tom rarely remembers to do exercise. Tom does exercise once in a blue moon.
C. Mary likes to go shopping every weekend. Mary goes shopping once in a blue moon.
D. Cindy hates to stay up, but she stays up every day. Cindy stays up once in a blue moon.
79. When does a blue moon happen in nature?
A. When the moon has a blue color.
B. When we cannot see the moon at all.
C. When there are two full moons in one month.
D. When we can only see a small part of the moon.
80. Which of the following is another example of something that has a crescent shape?
A. The letter “O”. B. The letter “M”.
C. The letter “H”. D. The letter “C”.
81. How often will a blue moon happen over the next twenty years?
A. Once a year. B. Less than once a year.
C. More than once a year. D. At least twice a year.
82. What does the underlined part “This fact” in the last paragraph refer to(所指)?
A. A blue moon is a very rare event.
B. The moon appears to change shape.
C. The moon itself is never really blue.
D. A blue moon has to do with the shape of the moon.
D
A poor farmer had a friend who was famous for the wonderful apples he grew.
One day, his friend gave the farmer a young apple tree and told him to take it home and plant it. The farmer was pleased with the gift, but when he got home, he did not know where to plant it.
He was afraid that if he planted the tree near the road, strangers would steal the fruit. If he planted the tree in one of his fields，his neighbors would come at night and steal some of the apples. If he planted the tree near his house, his children would take the fruit.
Finally he planted the tree in his woods(树林)where no one could see it. But without sunlight and good soil, the tree soon died.
Later the friend asked the farmer why he had planted the tree in such a poor place. “What's the difference？” the farmer said angrily. “If I had planted the tree near the road, strangers would have stolen the fruit. If I had planted the tree in one of my fields, my neighbors would have come at night and stolen some of the apples. If I had planted it near my house, my own children would have taken the fruit. ”
“Yes，” said the friend, “but at least someone could have enjoyed the fruit. Now you not only have robbed(抢夺) everyone of the fruit, but also have destroyed(摧毁)a good apple tree！”
83. What did the farmer's friend give him one day?
A. An apple. B. Some apples.
C. A young tree. D. Some young trees.
84. Why didn't the farmer want to plant the tree in his field?
A. He thought strangers would steal the fruit.
B. He thought the tree would die.
C. He thought his children would take the fruit.
D. He thought his neighbors would steal the fruit.
85. Where did the farmer plant the young tree?
A. Near the road. B. In his field.
C. In his woods. D. Near the house.
86. Why did the young tree die in the end?
A. Strangers pulled out the tree.
B. His neighbors cut down the tree.
C. His children broke the tree.
D. There was less sunlight and poor soil.
87. What does the story tell us?
A. We should care about others' feelings.
B. We should learn to share beautiful things.
C. The young tree can provide apples for us when it grows up.
D. The young tree can grow up one day.

Have you ever imagined going to other countries without your paper passport? That will soon come true. And your paper passport will become history. You may use a new kind of passport called “cloud passport” in the future.
It's reported that Australia will be the first country to use the cloud passport. With the cloud passport，you don't have to take a paper passport with you all the time. The cloud passport will have your name，photos and other information. And if you go to other countries，you can just check the information on the computer.
When you take a paper passport with you, you might lose it. But with the cloud passport, you don't have to worry about that.
