三、根据短文意思和首字母提示,写出一个完整正确的单词。
Colour is very important in our lives. It has a lot to do with our feelings. Colours are d 1 into warm colours, cool colours and neutral(中性的) colours. Red and yellow are warm colours because they make a room feel warmer. They also make the walls s 2 nearer to us than they really are. We say that blue and green are cool colours. They give us a different feeling—the room feels cooler and the walls seem to be farther a 3. A neutral colour is one that does not influence our feelings. Brown and gray are b 4 neutral colours, but they may also be put into warm or cold colours to affect our feelings. Let's begin to see the i 5 of choosing the right colours.

四、阅读理解。
There are thousands of kinds of animals in the Amazon rainforest, each coloured differently. Most rainforest animals use their colours for survival.
Some animals use colour to protect themselves from their predators(猎食者). An example is the green iguana(鬣鳞蜥). Young iguanas are bright green and hide among the bright green leaves of the trees where they live. As they grow older, their colour becomes duller. Old iguanas live higher in the trees, where the colours all around are less bright.
Other animals are predators and use colour to hide from their prey. The boa constrictor snake(蟒蛇) is a good example. Some boas are grey or brown, and their colours help them hide on branches. The emerald boa is green and white, so it can easily hide in the leaves. A boa hides in a tree and waits for a bird to fly by. When one does, the boa grabs the bird from the air and then squeezes it to death before eating it.
Colourful frogs can be orange, red, or green. Their bright colours let everybody know where they are. The bright colour warns other animals that the frog is poisonous, so they stay away. These tiny frogs are very poisonous! One frog has enough poison to kill 100 people.
The colours of the rainforest are beautiful to us, but to the animals they are very important. They help the animals survive.
