Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观者), a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays(灰色)and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined(意志坚定的). You wish to succeedand want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists(心理学家)tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference(爱好), and the effect(影响)that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don't choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful(开心的)and more comfortable(舒服的)than a dark green one, and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(压抑). Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray.Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don't forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.31. According to this passage, _________.A. one can choose his color preferenceB. one is born with his color preferenceC. one's color preference is changeableD. one has to choose his favorite color as soon as he can see clearly32. We would pay attention to colors because _______.A. colors do have effect on our moods(情绪)B. colors may have effect on our work and studyC. light and bright colors make people happyD. you can know your friends better by the colors they like or dislike33 The main idea of this passage is ________.A. one's color preference shows one's characterB. you can brighten your life with wonderful colorsC. psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preferenceD. one's color preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beings34 The writer believes that in realizing the four modernizations of country, we need more people who love _______.A. yellowB. redC. greenD. black35 "I am feeling black" means ______.A. I am feeling wellB. I am very happyC. I am excitedD. I am depressedBDonald was not very good at maths. He co uld not understand the teacher’s explanations(解释). Ever when the teacher explained something a second time, Donald still could not understand it. “Never mind,” Donald told himself. “I’m quite good at other subjects. I’ll cheat(作弊)in the maths exam, then I won’t be in trouble.”“I’ll sit next to the boy who’s best at maths,” he thought, “and copy down his answers.” Theday of the exam came, and Donald sat next to Brian Smith, who always was at the top of the class in maths. Donald carefully copied Brian’s answers onto his own exam paper. At the end of the exam, the teacher collected the papers and graded(批改) them. Then she said, “Well, boys and girls. I’ve decided to give a prize to the student who got the highest grade. It’s difficult for me to decide who to give the prize to, however, because two students, Doanld and Brian, got the same grade.”“Let them share it,” one of the other students said.“I’ve thought about that,” the teacher said, “but I’ve decided to give the prize to Brian.” Donald was angr y when he heard this. He stood up and said. “That’s not fair. I got the same grade as Brian.” “That’s true,” the teacher said. “However, Brian’s answer to Question 18 was ‘I don’t know,’ your s was ‘Neither do I.’”36.
