二、涂色部分占整个图形的几分之几?
(Translation: Second, what fraction of the entire figure is the shaded part?)
**Figure 1:**
Description: A rectangle divided vertically into 3 equal rectangular parts. The left and right parts are shaded, and the middle part is unshaded.
Below the figure are blank spaces for a fraction:

**Figure 2:**
Description: A square divided into a 3x3 grid of 9 smaller squares.
- The central square is fully shaded.
- The four corner squares are each divided by a diagonal line. One triangular half of each corner square is shaded (specifically, the triangle in the bottom-right of the top-left square, the triangle in the bottom-left of the top-right square, the triangle in the top-right of the bottom-left square, and the triangle in the top-left of the bottom-right square).
- The four middle squares on the sides are unshaded.
Considering the whole figure divided into 9 equal squares: The shaded area is 1 full square (center) + 4 * (1/2) squares (corners) = 1 + 2 = 3 square units. The total area is 9 square units. The shaded fraction is 3/9, which simplifies to 1/3.

**Figure 4:**
Description: A six-pointed star (hexagram) formed by two overlapping equilateral triangles. The figure is divided into 12 equal smaller triangles (6 outer triangles and a central hexagon composed of 6 inner triangles). The 6 outer triangles forming the points of the star are shaded. The central hexagon, composed of 6 inner triangles, is unshaded.
Total equal parts: 12 triangles.
Shaded parts: 6 triangles.
The shaded fraction is 6/12, which simplifies to 1/2.
