If we observe carefully, we van find that most of the flowers in nature are red, orange and yellow. If we have seen a black flower, it’s a chance in million. People have made a census(普查)to colours of more than four thousand kinds of flowers and discovered that only eight of them are black. Why?
As we know, sunlight is formed by seven different kinds of coloured light. The wave length of each light changes, so the quantity of heat in each light changes, too. Flowers, especially their petals(花瓣), are very delicate(纤弱) and prone(易于) to the harm caused by high temperature. Black flowers can take in all the light waves, which cause the flowers to dry up in a high temperature. So black flowers can rarely survive sunlight. But red flowers, orange flowers and yellow flowers can protect themselves from sunlight by reflecting the red light, orange light and yellow light, each of which has a large quantity of heat.
That is why red, orange and yellow flowers are very common in nature while black flowers are so rare.
1.We can hardly find black flowers because _____.
|
A．they are so weak that it’s difficult for them to grow up |

Last Friday my brother and I were driving home and had a fun conversation. So absorbed in our talk, my brother took a wrong turn.
Unfortunately, the wrong turn took us towards a 31 , and we had no way to turn 32 . __33 my brother paid the bridge fee and drove on. He was greatly 34 by his mistake and the needless 35 of $4.

I was busy trying to 38 which way we would go next, but my brother stopped and asked the guy if he needed any 39 And he did. He had a flat tire and needed a tool to get it off.
My brother gave him a wrench（扳手）, and then helped him 40 the flat. The young man said that this had been a 41 week for him: earlier he had gotten into a minor car 42 , and now this tire was flat on his way home from work. But he called us “a breath of fresh air’’ and kept 43 us because he really would have been 44 if we hadn’t come along.
After we had finished the job, he thanked us again and pulled out $20 to give us. “No,” my brother said. “We were never 45 to even get on that bridge. We took a wrong turn. But now we know 46 we did. It was to help you. Thank you for turning our mistake into a（n） 47 to serve.”
