11．The British use the word‘colour'while the Americans use the word‘color'．

分析 英國人使用"colour"這一單詞而美國人使用"color"（這一單詞）．

解答 答案：while
解析：根據(jù)句意可知該句講的是英國英語和美國英語在詞匯方面的不同，所以此處應當選擇while"而"表示兩者之間的對比．

點評 本題考查單詞填空，做此類題目時先要從句子結(jié)構(gòu)或句意等多方面確定句子所缺成分，再考慮該成分由誰來充當；最終做出正確答案．

19．The meaning of the word"volunteer"may be a little different in different countries，but it usually means"one who offers his or her services．"There are many different ways in which people can volunteer，such as taking care of sick people，working on homes for homeless children，and picking up garbage （垃圾） from beaches and parks．Volunteers may work within their countries or in other countries．They are often people with a strong wish to help those who are less fortunate than themselves．Volunteers don't expect any kind of pay．
  At the root of volunteering is the idea that one person may have the ability to offer services that can help other people．Tracy，a good friend of mine，however，recently came back from India with a new idea of what being a volunteer means．She worked for two and a half weeks in one of Mother Teresa's homes in Calcutta．The following is her story．
"I first heard about Mother Teresa in my high school，we watched a video（錄像） about her work in India and all over the world．I was so moved by her spirit to help others and her endless love for every human being that after I graduated from high school，I too wanted to try her kind of work．So with two friends I flew to Calcutta for a few weeks．"
"I was asked to work in a home for sick people．I helped wash clothes and sheets，and pass out lunch．I also fed the people who were too weak to feed themselves and tried to cheer the up．I felt it was better to share with them than to think that I have helped them．To be honest，I don't think I was helping very much．It was then that I realized that I had not really come to help，but to learn about and experience another culture（文化） that helped improve my own understanding of life and the world．"

6．On a hill 600 feet above the surrounding land，we watch the lines of rain move across the scene，the moon rise over the hills，and the stars appear in the sky．The views invite a long look from a comfortable chair in front of the wooden house．
Every window in our wooden house has a view，and the forest and lakes seldom look the same as the hour before．Each look reminds us where we are．
There is space for our three boys to play outside，to shoot arrows，collect tree seeds，build earth houses and climb trees．
Our kids have learned the names of the trees，and with the names have come familiarity and appreciation．As they tell all who show even a passing interest，maple（楓樹）makes the best fighting sticks and white pines are the best climbing trees．
The air is clean and fresh．The water from the well has a pleasant taste，and it is perhaps the healthiest water our kids will ever drink．Though they have one glass a day of juice and the rest is water，they never say anything against that．
The seasons change just outside the door． We watch the maples turn every shade of yellow and red in the fall and note the poplars'（楊樹）putting out the first green leaves of spring．The rainbow smelt fills the local steam as the ice gradually disappears，and the wood frogs start to sing in pools after being frozen for the winter．A family of birds rules our skies and flies over the lake．

3．Green is an important color in nature．It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees．It is also the color of most growing plants．
Sometimes，the word green means young，fresh and growing．Sometimes，it describes something that is not yet ripe or finished．A greenhorn is someone who has no experience．who is new to a situation．But in the fifteenth century，a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose home had not yet developed．A century or so later，a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in battle．By the eighteenth century，a greenhorn had the meaning it has today--a person who is new in a job．
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb．The expression comes from the early nineteen hundreds．A person，with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well．You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died．
The green-eyed monster is not a nightening creature from outer space，It is an expression used about four hundred years ago by British writer William Shakespeare in his play Othello．"It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone has something he wants．A young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if his girlfriend begins going out with someone else．Or，that green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you get a pay raise and she does not．
In most places in the world，a green light is a signal to move ahead．A green light on a traffic signal means your car can continue on．In everyday speech，a green light means approval to continue with a project．

1．How many expressions including"green"are mentioned in the passage？B
A．Three．     B．Four．
C．Five．      D．Six．
2．What does"a greenhorn"mean now？D
A．A person who has rich job experience．
B．A soldier who has not yet any experience in battle．
C．A young cow or ox whose horns have not yet developed．
D．A person who is a green hand without any experience．
3．Which expression can be used if your friend is good at growing plants？A
A．A green thumb．
B．A green light．
C．A greenhorn        
D．The green-eyed monster．
4．What will make you suffer from the green-eyed monster？C
A．You meet a frightening g creature．
B．You watch the play"Othello"；
C．Your girlfriend dates with your friend．
D．You get a pay raise．
