13．（8分）Little birds talk with their sisters and brothers in their nest.They make a sound for food.Mum tells them to be quiet when danger comes.But now a new study finds that kind of talk begins long before the babies are born.Even in the eggs，they can talk with each other and know when to get out or when to keep waiting.
To check that finding，a team of scientists from Spain watched unborn birds carefully in Salvora Island.Over there，sea birds produce eggs and minks eat baby birds.So it is quite a dangerous place for baby birds.Knowing when to come out of the egg is a matter of life and death.
Scientists collected sea bird eggs and put them into two groups.When minks come，a parent will give warning calls to the baby birds.Scientists played those calls for one group.While the other group stayed in a safe box.They would never hear such calls.
When scientists put all the eggs together，they found something surprising：after receiving warning calls，the eggs vibrated more than the others.Those vibrations moved from one egg to another.It was just like there were ears in the eggs.It was clear that unborn birds talked with their sisters and brothers about danger.

14．（8分）Traffic lights are red，yellow and green.They are very important signals.Traffic lights are usually put at busy street corners to help control traffic.Sometimes，they are on streets near schools and shops，too.Most young children are taught what each of the colored lights means，so everybody can stay safe.
The first traffic signals were used for trains.The signals were put alongside railway tracks.The color red was used to mean "stop" because it warned people of danger.A red light was also the easiest color to see far away.Train drivers could see the red "stop" light ahead and had enough time to slow down and stop their trains.A green light was used to mean "take care" and a white light meant "go".
However，there were many dangerous accidents on the train tracks.Some train drivers thought a star shining in the night sky was a white light that meant "go".So the signals were swapped.The "go" light was changed to green and the "take care" light was changed to white.
During these times，people travelled by train or in carts pulled by horses.Years later，when cars were built，people began to drive them because they could travel much faster than horses.However，the road rules for drivers were not very clear and many people were hurt crossing the roads.Yellow warning signs had to be put on the side of the roads to warn drivers to take care and allow people to cross safely.
Today，towns and cities all over the world have traffic lights.Red and green lights match the signals used on the railways.Yellow lights are easy to see，so they are used to warn drivers that they should slow down and prepare to stop.
（1）Why was the color red used to mean "stop"？
A.It warned people of traffic rules.
B.It helped trains run well.
C.It gave people a warning of danger.
D.It was the first color people thought of.
（2）What does the underlined word "swapped" in Paragraph 3 mean？
A.Produced.
B.Exchanged.
C.Suggested.
D.Compared.
（3）In which order did the "take care" light develop？
a.A white light b.A green light c.A yellow light
A.b﹣a﹣c
B.b﹣c﹣a
C.a﹣c﹣b
D.a﹣b﹣c
（4）What is the passage mainly about？
A.The advantages of traffic lights.
B.The history of traffic lights.
C.The importance of traffic lights.
D.The meanings of traffic lights.

13．（8分）Little birds talk with their sisters and brothers in their nest.They make a sound for food.Mum tells them to be quiet when danger comes.But now a new study finds that kind of talk begins long before the babies are born.Even in the eggs，they can talk with each other and know when to get out or when to keep waiting.
To check that finding，a team of scientists from Spain watched unborn birds carefully in Salvora Island.Over there，sea birds produce eggs and minks eat baby birds.So it is quite a dangerous place for baby birds.Knowing when to come out of the egg is a matter of life and death.
Scientists collected sea bird eggs and put them into two groups.When minks come，a parent will give warning calls to the baby birds.Scientists played those calls for one group.While the other group stayed in a safe box.They would never hear such calls.
When scientists put all the eggs together，they found something surprising：after receiving warning calls，the eggs vibrated more than the others.Those vibrations moved from one egg to another.It was just like there were ears in the eggs.It was clear that unborn birds talked with their sisters and brothers about danger.

14．（8分）Traffic lights are red，yellow and green.They are very important signals.Traffic lights are usually put at busy street corners to help control traffic.Sometimes，they are on streets near schools and shops，too.Most young children are taught what each of the colored lights means，so everybody can stay safe.
The first traffic signals were used for trains.The signals were put alongside railway tracks.The color red was used to mean "stop" because it warned people of danger.A red light was also the easiest color to see far away.Train drivers could see the red "stop" light ahead and had enough time to slow down and stop their trains.A green light was used to mean "take care" and a white light meant "go".
However，there were many dangerous accidents on the train tracks.Some train drivers thought a star shining in the night sky was a white light that meant "go".So the signals were swapped.The "go" light was changed to green and the "take care" light was changed to white.
During these times，people travelled by train or in carts pulled by horses.Years later，when cars were built，people began to drive them because they could travel much faster than horses.However，the road rules for drivers were not very clear and many people were hurt crossing the roads.Yellow warning signs had to be put on the side of the roads to warn drivers to take care and allow people to cross safely.
Today，towns and cities all over the world have traffic lights.Red and green lights match the signals used on the railways.Yellow lights are easy to see，so they are used to warn drivers that they should slow down and prepare to stop.
（1）Why was the color red used to mean "stop"？ C
A.It warned people of traffic rules.
B.It helped trains run well.
C.It gave people a warning of danger.
D.It was the first color people thought of.
（2）What does the underlined word "swapped" in Paragraph 3 mean？
A.Produced.
B.Exchanged.
C.Suggested.
D.Compared.
（3）In which order did the "take care" light develop？ A
a.A white light b.A green light c.A yellow light
A.b﹣a﹣c
B.b﹣c﹣a
C.a﹣c﹣b
D.a﹣b﹣c
（4）What is the passage mainly about？
A.The advantages of traffic lights.
B.The history of traffic lights.
C.The importance of traffic lights.
D.The meanings of traffic lights.
【分析】本文主要讲述了红绿灯的发展由来﹣﹣﹣从火车上的演变到今天马路上能见到的交通信号灯。
【解答】（1）C.细节理解题。根据The color red was used to mean "stop" because it warned people of danger.可知，火车使用红色的标志牌是想警告人们危险。可知，红灯给人们以危险的警告。故选C。
（2）B.词义猜测题。根据A green light was used to mean "take care" and a white light meant "go".（绿灯意味着小心，白灯意味着通行。）而swapped后的一句话The "go" light was changed to green and the "take care" light was changed to white.（"go"灯变为绿色，"take care"灯变为白色）可知，绿色信号灯和白色信号灯的寓意交换发生了改变。所以swapped意为"交换"，故选B。
（3）A.细节理解题。根据第二段A green light was used to mean "take care"（绿灯被用来表示"小心"）第三段 the "take care" light was changed to white.（"小心"的灯被改成白色）第四段Yellow warning signs had to be placed beside the roads to remind drivers to take care（道路旁必须设置黄色警告标志，提醒司机小心驾驶）可知，"take care"light的发展过程由绿色到白色再到黄色，对应的正确的排序为b﹣a﹣c，故选A。
（4）B.主旨大意题。由第二段开头The first traffic signals were used for trains（最早的交通信号用于火车）到第四段开头During these times.Years later.（在这期间，多年后）到最后一段开头Today（今天）可知文章以时间轴的顺序在介绍红绿灯的发展由来﹣﹣﹣从火车上的演变到今天马路上能见到的交通信号灯，也就是交通信号灯的历史，故选B。

14．（8分）Traffic lights are red，yellow and green.They are very important signals.Traffic lights are usually put at busy street corners to help control traffic.Sometimes，they are on streets near schools and shops，too.Most young children are taught what each of the colored lights means，so everybody can stay safe.
The first traffic signals were used for trains.The signals were put alongside railway tracks.The color red was used to mean "stop" because it warned people of danger.A red light was also the easiest color to see far away.Train drivers could see the red "stop" light ahead and had enough time to slow down and stop their trains.A green light was used to mean "take care" and a white light meant "go".
However，there were many dangerous accidents on the train tracks.Some train drivers thought a star shining in the night sky was a white light that meant "go".So the signals were swapped.The "go" light was changed to green and the "take care" light was changed to white.
During these times，people travelled by train or in carts pulled by horses.Years later，when cars were built，people began to drive them because they could travel much faster than horses.However，the road rules for drivers were not very clear and many people were hurt crossing the roads.Yellow warning signs had to be put on the side of the roads to warn drivers to take care and allow people to cross safely.
Today，towns and cities all over the world have traffic lights.Red and green lights match the signals used on the railways.Yellow lights are easy to see，so they are used to warn drivers that they should slow down and prepare to stop.

A.b﹣a﹣c
B.b﹣c﹣a
C.a﹣c﹣b
D.a﹣b﹣c

14．（8分）Traffic lights are red，yellow and green.They are very important signals.Traffic lights are usually put at busy street corners to help control traffic.Sometimes，they are on streets near schools and shops，too.Most young children are taught what each of the colored lights means，so everybody can stay safe.
The first traffic signals were used for trains.The signals were put alongside railway tracks.The color red was used to mean "stop" because it warned people of danger.A red light was also the easiest color to see far away.Train drivers could see the red "stop" light ahead and had enough time to slow down and stop their trains.A green light was used to mean "take care" and a white light meant "go".
However，there were many dangerous accidents on the train tracks.Some train drivers thought a star shining in the night sky was a white light that meant "go".So the signals were swapped.The "go" light was changed to green and the "take care" light was changed to white.
During these times，people travelled by train or in carts pulled by horses.Years later，when cars were built，people began to drive them because they could travel much faster than horses.However，the road rules for drivers were not very clear and many people were hurt crossing the roads.Yellow warning signs had to be put on the side of the roads to warn drivers to take care and allow people to cross safely.
Today，towns and cities all over the world have traffic lights.Red and green lights match the signals used on the railways.Yellow lights are easy to see，so they are used to warn drivers that they should slow down and prepare to stop.
（1）Why was the color red used to mean "stop"？ C
A.It warned people of traffic rules.
B.It helped trains run well.
C.It gave people a warning of danger.
D.It was the first color people thought of.
（2）What does the underlined word "swapped" in Paragraph 3 mean？
A.Produced.
B.Exchanged.
C.Suggested.
D.Compared.
（3）In which order did the "take care" light develop？ A
a.A white light b.A green light c.A yellow light
A.b﹣a﹣c
B.b﹣c﹣a
C.a﹣c﹣b
D.a﹣b﹣c
（4）What is the passage mainly about？
A.The advantages of traffic lights.
B.The history of traffic lights.
C.The importance of traffic lights.
D.The meanings of traffic lights.
【分析】本文主要讲述了红绿灯的发展由来﹣﹣﹣从火车上的演变到今天马路上能见到的交通信号灯。
【解答】（1）C.细节理解题。根据The color red was used to mean "stop" because it warned people of danger.可知，火车使用红色的标志牌是想警告人们危险。可知，红灯给人们以危险的警告。故选C。
（2）B.词义猜测题。根据A green light was used to mean "take care" and a white light meant "go".（绿灯意味着小心，白灯意味着通行。）而swapped后的一句话The "go" light was changed to green and the "take care" light was changed to white.（"go"灯变为绿色，"take care"灯变为白色）可知，绿色信号灯和白色信号灯的寓意交换发生了改变。所以swapped意为"交换"，故选B。
（3）A.细节理解题。根据第二段A green light was used to mean "take care"（绿灯被用来表示"小心"）第三段 the "take care" light was changed to white.（"小心"的灯被改成白色）第四段Yellow warning signs had to be placed beside the roads to remind drivers to take care（道路旁必须设置黄色警告标志，提醒司机小心驾驶）可知，"take care"light的发展过程由绿色到白色再到黄色，对应的正确的排序为b﹣a﹣c，故选A。
（4）B.主旨大意题。由第二段开头The first traffic signals were used for trains（最早的交通信号用于火车）到第四段开头During these times.Years later.（在这期间，多年后）到最后一段开头Today（今天）可知文章以时间轴的顺序在介绍红绿灯的发展由来﹣﹣﹣从火车上的演变到今天马路上能见到的交通信号灯，也就是交通信号灯的历史，故选B。
