Two 18-year-old girls ，Jrasnatt and Marisa ，learned about a major challenge faced by the

cricket（蟋蟀）farmers.Bigger crickets often attack the smaller ones.When attacked ，a cricket

will cut off its own legs to escape.But after abandoning a leg ，this animal will often die or

becomes less valuable to buyers.

Jrasnatt and Marisa were determined to solve the problem.After some research，they learned that

colored light can influence the behaviors of some animals ，including insects.To find out ，the

teen researchers transferred groups of 30 newly hatched crickets into each of 24 boxes.The

crickets in six boxes were exposed only to red light.Another six boxes were lit with green.Six

more boxes were lit with blue.These three groups of insects spent daytime hours throughout their

lives — about two months — in a world bathed in just one color of light.The last six boxes of

crickets lived in natural light.

"We see they're growing every day and take notes on what's happening，"says Marisa."We're like

the parents of the crickets."Throughout，the teens kept track of the crickets.The share of crickets

with missing legs was about 9 in every 10 among those living in red ，blue or natural light.But

fewer than 7 in every 10 crickets who grew up in a world of green lost legs.Also ，the survival

rate for crickets in the green box was four or five times higher than that in the other boxes.

Crickets' eyes are adapted to only see in green and blue light.So ，in red light，the world would

always look dark.Without being able to see，they are more likely to hit each other.That results in

crickets losing legs.Besides ，crickets are more attracted to blue light than green light ，which

pulls them closer together and leads to more fights.In the green light box，the crickets were most

likely to mind their own business and avoid struggle.

Creating a green-light world for crickets is a solution that could be brought to the farms.Jrasnatt

and Marisa are already in talks with the farmers.Those farmers plan to try out green lighting to see

if it will boost their profits.

4. What problem of crickets did the girls decide to settle？ ______

A. There is no cricket buyer.

B. They often jump high to escape.

C. Their legs are cut off by farmers.

D. There are always injuries and deaths.

5. What can we learn about the girls' research work？ ______

A. They conducted the research seriously.

B. They looked after the insects carelessly.

C. They observed the crickets day and night.

D. They divided the crickets into three groups.

6. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about？ ______

A. Possible application of the research finding.

B. A brief introduction to the research method.

C. A further explanation for the research results.

D. Detailed information about the research process.

7. What may be the attitude of the cricket farmers towards the girls' solution？ ______

A. Doubtful. B. Opposed. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent.

Kobe Bryant is no doubt a legend.How did he do it？Simply put his work principle.He showed up

to training every day ，no excuses.Without a doubt ，it is quite evident that Kobe's desire for

success was directly correlated with his work principle.

Kobe Bryant's work principle is what helped him become the legend he is today.But what also

must be understood about Kobe Bryant is that he was relentless （不停的；严格的）.He had a

mental toughness and steely focus that was driven by his competitiveness.

In short ，Kobe wanted to be the best ，and would do whatever it took to achieve this mental

goal.If he had a weakness in one area，he would commit to mastering that weakness.If there was

a lack of strength in his shot，he would get to work exhausting all options to correct that lack of
