【題目】 When Cheryl was at primary school, nobody ever called her by her real name. There was always someone making fun of her size. That continued for several years and it made her feel upset.

But one day, when she was eleven, as she was building a tree house in her garden, Cheryl realized she had more physical power (體力) than all the boys. She could lift heavy things and do things that other kids couldn’t. So, she decided to try weightlifting.

Cheryl was really good at weightlifting, so her coach encouraged her to take part in competitions. Her talent began to shine. She holds every American record in her age group and she also won a bronze medal (銅牌) at the 2000 Olympic Games, when she was only sixteen.

Cheryl is not only strong but also crazy about her sport. She usually works out for three hours a day including Saturdays. However, this doesn’t mean that weightlifting is her only interest. Just like other teenagers, Cheryl enjoys spending her free time with friends and her two sisters. They don’t always go out, but when they do, they often go to the cinema or a seafood restaurant. Cheryl also likes drawing and painting and she’s a very talented artist. Her portraits (畫像) made in pencil have won prizes in competitions.

Cheryl’s success has made her an idol, especially among oversized teenagers. She says, “Hopefully, I can set an example to other people who feel they are far from normal and encourage them to do things that are challenging. We’re not all going to be supermodels. I don’t want to look like that. What’s important is how you feel and how you act towards others.”

【題目】 What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you’re probably quiet and shy.

Colors do influence our moods （情緒）. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one, and a red dress brings warmth. On the other hand, black is depressing （使人壓抑的）. There was a black bridge over the Thames River, near London. The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge in the area until it was repainted green.

Light and bright colors make people not only happier but also more active. In the factory, the workers will work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，判斷下列句子正誤。（正確的“T”，錯(cuò)誤的“F”）.

【1】An active person may like yellow, orange, or red.

【2】Colors do influence on our moods.

【3】Most people feel more relaxed in a bark green room than in a yellow one.

【4】More people killed themselves on the black bridge because the bridge was too crowded.

Recorded background music first found its way in factories, shops and restaurants in the US, but it soon spread to other parts of the world. Now many stores like to play this kind of music.
