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 (蚱蜢), 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 (害虫) with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives in the day and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colouring is protecting themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the trees,
Have you ever noticed an even more strange act A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, the enemies cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it isn’t strong at all.

Our first expression is “in the red”. It is another way of saying that a business is losing money. In the past, numbers in the records of a company were written in red to show a loss. A business magazine recently published a report about a television company. The report said the company was still in the red but was able to cut its loss from the year before.
You can often tell from their faces if the businessmen are in the black or in the red.
A profit (盈利) by a business is written in black numbers. So a company that is “in the black” is making money. An international news service reported that a private hospital in Australia announced it was “back in the black with its first profit in three years.”
Another business expression is “run on the bank”. That is what happens when many people try to get back all their money from a bank. A “run on the bank” usually happens when people believe there is a danger that the bank may fail or close.
Newspaper reports about a banking crisis in Russia used that expression. They said the government acted because of fears that the crisis would cause a run on the banks.
“When a run on the banks was starting, there was not much they could do,” said a banking expert, “which means they will lose all the money caved in the bank.”
11. The manager felt ________ because his company has been in the red for 3 years.
A. relaxed B. worried C. pleased D. excited
12. In the past, if a company made money, the records of the company were written in ________
A. red B. black C. yellow D. green
13. What can we learn about the television company in Paragraph 1
A. It has been in a good condition. B. It has been making money.
C. It has been losing money for years. D. It will be in the red next year.
14. The private hospital in Australia ________.
A. has been making money these years B. has made money for 3 years
C. has been in the black for 3 years D. starts to make money this year
15. People in Russia run on the bank because ________.
A. they don’t believe in the banks B. they want to save money there

六、阅读与表达（10分）
Most Western people believe that one’s date of birth decides his or her star sign. They also think that people born under different star signs have different characteristics. In their opinion, if your star sign is Taurus (金牛座), you are stubborn, hard- working and patient. You do not like to change. and never give up easily.
Is it completely right I don’t think so. People’s birthdays can’t be decided by themselves. But their characteristics can be changed by the environment around them. My friend Joe was born on 15 April and his star sign is. Aries (白羊座). According to the information about Aries, we know that people of Aries are sometimes too impatient and a little selfish. But Joe always does things patiently, and he often thinks of others more than of himself and isn’t selfish at all. He isn’t interested in being a leader but just does what he thinks should be done
So I don’t think all the people born under the same star sign share similar characteristics. That may just be a coincidence (巧合).
根据短文回答问题，答案不超过6个单词。
1. According to Western people, what is one’s star sign decided by
2. What are people born under the star sign Taurus like
3. What can change people’s characteristics
4. Do Joe’s characteristics match what his star sign says about him
5. What do you think of star signs
