A

When it comes to the greatest inventions of the world， Chinas name is sure to be mentioned several times. There are hundreds of things which were invented by the Chinese.

Alcohol

Shocked？ It was because when they said alcohol I thought about either the US or the UK. China had never crossed my mind. In China， alcohol was made by two legendary persons named Yi Di and Du Kang who belonged to the Xia Dynasty. This period was about 2000 BC—1600 BC. Research says that in ancient China， beer with 4% alcoholic content was widely consumed by people.

Tea

China is the proud inventor of tea which was first drunk by Shen Nong， a Chinese emperor around 2737 BC. Tea production was rapidly developed， making tea a popular drink during the Tang and Song Dynasties.

The Mechanical Clock

Have you ever wondered what on earth we would be doing without any idea of time？ A clock really is an invention without which things were incomplete. The credit of making the first mechanical clock goes to ancient China. The first mechanical clock was invented by Yi Xing in the Tang Dynasty which was during 618 AD and 907 AD.

Silk Fabric

Silk， the favorite fabric of many girls out there， is also a Chinese invention. Although we all know that silk is made by silkworms， it was Chinese people who first invented a way to harvest the silk and then use it to make clothes. The oldest silk which has been found so far is in Henan Province and dates back to 3630 BC.

21. What can we learn from Alcohol？

I thought she had stopped on the side of the road because of mechanical problems. The real reason was so much more inspiring.

Recently when the air turned warm and summery， I went for a drive through the local countryside. I had no destination in mind， but the sun was shining and the animals were out searching for food in the forest. What a great day！

Suddenly， I came upon a car on the side of the road. I watched an older woman get out of her car and walk down to the ditch （溝渠）. I thought she maybe had some mechanical or physical problems. I became concerned and decided to stop my car to see if I could be of any help. First I introduced myself， and then I asked if she was all right.

She told me that she had just stopped to pick up rubbish that some thoughtless traveler had thrown out of the window. She invited me to look inside her car and see how much trash she had already collected.

I told her that I wrote articles for the local paper and asked her if I could use her name to report what she did. “Oh my god！ No，” she said without thinking. “Im not doing this for recognition. We live in a beautiful country， and I try to do my little part to help keep it that way.”

So the next time you go out for a drive， be thankful that there are people out there who choose to protect the Earth. And consider taking some time to keep the roadside that you pass by clean. Youll get some exercise， fresh air and a good feeling knowing that you have done a lot to help keep our country beautiful.

How fit are your teeth？ Are you lazy about brushing them？ Never fear： An inventor is on the case. An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush， and it lets you track （跟蹤） your performance on your phone.

The Kolibree toothbrush was exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. It senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection.

The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right （dont forget the insides of the teeth?。?and make sure youre brushing long enough. “Its kind of like having a dentist actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis，” says Thomas Serval， the French inventor.

The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone， so developers could， for instance， create a game controlled by your toothbrush. You could score points for beating monsters among your teeth. “We try to make it smart but also fun，” Serval says.

Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They said “yes”， but Serval would find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided he needed a brush that really told him how well his children brushed.

The company says the Kolibree will go on sale， for $99 to $199， depending on features. The US is the first target market.

Serval says that one day， itll be possible to replace the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also has a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.

28. What is one of the features of the Kolibree toothbrush？

A. It can help users find their phones.

A. How Serval found out his kids lied to him.

B. Why Serval wanted to improve the toothbrush.

C. How Serval taught his kids to brush their teeth.

D. Why Serval thought brushing teeth was necessary.

31. What can we learn about the future development of the Kolibree？

Birds feathers are some of the most strikingly variable animal features that can be observed by the eyes. The patterns that we see in birds feathers are made up of combinations of scales， bars， and spots.

We already know why birds have colored feathers. Generally， the color of feathers may protect a bird from being noticed by the enemy in the environment， or it can make a bird more appealing to potential mates by helping them to stand out. These aspects are well known. A greater mystery has been how the patterns are created.

Dr Ismael Galván and his team studied the color of feathers to see what types of colors were present in birds complex feather patterns. The study shows they mainly consist of two types of colors： melanin （黑色素）， which produces a range of black， grey， brown， and orange color， and carotenoids （類胡蘿卜色素）， which are used to create brighter colors.

Birds cannot produce carotenoids on their own. For feathers with bright colors， birds must consume food items that contain these paints， and the carotenoids circulate through the blood to the feather. Melanin， on the other hand， is produced by special cells in the birds bodies.

The team found that about 32% of the species studied have complex color patterns， with the vast majority of these complex patterns produced by melanin rather than carotenoids. If the birds were artists， they would use carotenoids as a broad brush to produce color patches （斑）， with melanin as a detail paint brush to produce more complex designs.

But a few birds are exceptions to this rule： Three bird families do have complex patterns without melanin.

32. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to？

A. The color. B. The enemy.

C. The feather. D. The environment.

33. What will happen if birds cant get enough carotenoids？

A. Theyll be discovered more easily.

B. Theyll get less bright colors.

C. Theyll gradually die out.

D. Theyll have more spots.

34. What can we learn from Paragraph 5？

A. Birds have complex color patterns.

B. Birds are expert in painting colors.

C. Melanin plays a greater part in birds colors.

D. 32% of the color patterns come from carotenoids.

35. What can be the best title for the text？

A. How Do Birds Get Their Colors？

B. Which Color Is Common to Birds？

C. Why Birds Have Colored Feathers？

D. How Do Birds Tell Different Colors？
