Directions： There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked marked A. B, C and D. You should decide on the best ONE and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET. Questions 51—55 are based on the following passage ：
Have you ever wondered why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their particular colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Birds, especially seagulls, are very fond of locusts (蝗虫). But birds cannot easily catch locusts because locusts change their colors along with the change of the colors of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But when crops are ripe, locusts take on exactly the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies. So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usually invisible (看不见的)to the hunters’ eyes. because they have the colors much like the barks of trees(树皮).
An even stranger act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it, and it immediately swims away. Thus, it has existed (存在)up to now though it is not powerful at all.

An E-book (referred to as an electronic book) is a digital version (电子版本)of a print book that you download and read. But if you want to read an E-book, you must have an E-book Reader (阅读器), which is a kind of free software used by your computer. Make sure you have installed(安装)the appropriate Reader before you download an E-book from the Internet. The software allows you to turn the words on the screen into the size you like. It also helps you turn pages and change your viewing options.
E-books are a fun alternative (替代)to regular books. You can download them to any computers and create your own library with hundreds of titles. If you download them to your portable computer(手提电脑), you can take them with you wherever you travel. Some E-books are even interactive! Best of all, when you order an E-book, there is no waiting and no shipping charges(运费).
