They have known for a long time that th e color of a room or the color of the light in it can affect our feelings and emotions. Many pri sons and hospitals have at least one room that is painted pink. Officials have found that light and color can produce physical changes in our bodies. Professor Falfan worked with a group of 9 disabled children at school in Albert. Two of the children were blind. The other seven had normal sight. The scientists changed the color of the school room, and then looked for changes in blood pressure, heart beat and breathing rate. The effects of color changes were the same for the blind children as for those with normal sight. Their blood pressure dropped from about 120 to 100. Similar changes were reported in heart-beat and the breathing. The children were also calmer and less excited. Then the colors of the room were returned to orange and white. Blood pressure, heart-beat and breathing rate went up and the children became excited again.Professor Falfan said different colors produce different levels of light energy. He said the differences seem to affect chemicals in the brain that carry messages from nerve to nerve and from nerve to muscle.11．Light and color can affect ________.A．only one’s feelings and emotionsB．one’s en ergyC．one’s mental changesD．one’s heart-beat, brain activities, blood pressure, feelings and emotions12．The color of pink had a calming effect, that is to say, the color affects ________.

Traveling without a map in different countries, I find out about different ways of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”Foreign tourists are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there don’t have name signs. In Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions inste ad of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”People in Los Angeles, the US, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure distance by time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.”You don’t understand completely, “Yes, but how many miles away is it, please?”To this question you won’t get an answer, because most probably they don’t know it themselves.People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language. Instead, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.”Then he’ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question. What happens in the situation?A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People there believe that “I don’t” is impolite. They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. So a tourist can get lost very easily in Yucatan! However, one thing will help you everywhere in the world. It’s body language.15．Which of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions?A. “The post office is at Street Kamira.”B. “Turn right at the hospital and go past a school.”C. “The post office is about five minutes from here.”D. “Go south two miles. Turn west and then go another mile.”16．Why don’t people in Los Angeles give directions in miles?A. They prefer to lead you the way.B. They prefer to use body language.C. They often have no idea of distance measured by miles.D. They use landmarks in their directions instead of distance.17．How do Greeks give directions?A. Using street names.B. Using landmarks.C. Leading people the way.D. Giving people a wrong direction.18． According to the last paragraph, we can learn that_____________________.A. people in Yucatan always give wrong directionsB. people in Mexico know streets’ name wellC. body language makes you get lost in YucatanD. people in Mexico prefer to use body language阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
