But they had to keep the fires burning(燃烧), for they couldnt start it again if there was no lightning. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone(石头) together could make a spark(火花). The spark could fire dry leaves(树叶). In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing(摩擦). They made a hole on a big piece of wood(木头) and put a smaller stick(树枝) into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat(热) from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.About two centuries(世纪) ago, people began to make matches(火柴). Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fires. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric(电子) fire starter. Of course an electric fire starter is much more expensive than a box of matches. But it is convenient.（1）A spark can .A . fire any leavesB . burn anythingC . burn dry leavesD . keep fires burning（2）We can also get a fire by .A . making a hole on a big piece of woodB . putting a smaller stick into the holeC . turning the stick hard for a whileD . all above together（3）Matches have been used .A . for about two thousand yearsB . for about two hundred yearsC . since people began to use fire for cookingD . since people used the heat from the sun（4）From this passage we know .A . an electric fire starter is widely usedB . people havent used matches since they had electric fire startersC . today there are only two ways to make firesD . some forest fires happen from lightning（5）Choose the right order of the ways to make fires people got to know.a. with a match b. from the sun c. from lightningd. by rubbing e. with an electric fire starterA . a, b, c, d, eB . b, c, a, e, dC . c, d, b, a, eD . d, a, c, b, e13. （10分）Look at the centre circles of Diagram (图)A and Diagram B. Which of the centre circles looks larger? In fact, they are exactly the same size.Then look at the picture on the right. What do you see? A vase? Or two faces？Does the picture change quickly from one to the other again and again? Maybe or maybe not, but you can never see them at the same time.“Whats happening? Is something wrong with my eyes?” You may wonder at what you see. Dont worry. Here is how it goes:When we look at things, our eyes send messages to our brains and then our brains interpret（解读）the information. However, sometimes our brains interpret the received information in a wrong way. It seems that our eyes are playing a joke on us. This often happens and we call it “visual illusion(视觉错误)”.Movie makers often make use of visual illusions. They make the objects around actors much smaller or bigger than usual. This makes us believe that the actors are much larger or smaller than they usually are. The movies Jurassic Parkand Honey I shrunk the kids just make use of visual illusions.（1）Why does the centre circle in Diagram A look smaller than that in Diagram B?A . something is wrong with our eyesB . the two circles are not the same sizeC . our brains interpret the information in a wrong wayD . the two pictures change quickly from one to the other（2）What do movie makers make use of visual illusions for ?A .
