We might think we know which colours do what．The idea that red wakes us up or blue calms us down is deeply rooted in Western culture．But do they really change our behaviour in the ways that we assume?

When it comes to scientific research, the results are mixed and at times contested． Some studies have found that people do better on cognitive tasks when faced with red rather than blue or green; others show the opposite．The idea is that if you repeatedly have a particular experience surrounded by a certain colour, then you eventually begin to associate that colour with the way you were feeling or behaving．A school career spent reading your teacher’s red writing circling your mistakes forever makes you link red with danger．Blue meanwhile is more likely to be associated with calmer situations like marvelling at a big blue expanse of sky．

Of course there will always be exceptions --- the comment from the teacher saying “well done” is also written in red． It is true that people do make different associations with different colours, but whether this translates into behaving in a certain way or succeeding at a particular task is a different question．

In 2009 researchers tried to clarify the situation．They sat their participants at computer screens colored blue, red or “neutral” and tested them on various tasks．With a red screen people did better on tasks requiring attention to detail, but when the screen was blue they did better on creative tasks．In practice this might be tricky．In a classroom you might want to think creatively some of the time and pay attention to detail at others．

However, when another team tried to repeat the study with a larger group of people in 2014, the effect of color disappeared． The initial study consisted of just 69 people．In this new, bigger study, of 263 volunteers, background color made no difference．

So colors might well have an effect, but so far those effects have been difficult to demonstrate consistently and sometimes don’t seem to exist at all．

1.What’s the major function of the first paragraph?

A． To present a widely held view

B． To raise a question of behavior change

C． To introduce the theme of the passage

D． To summarize the whole passage

2.The author mentions the exception in Paragraph 3 in order to show _____．

A． there are exceptions to every rule

B． people tend to associate colors with behaviors

C． colors don’t necessarily mean particular behaviors

D． colors do matter to those who desire success

3.It can be concluded from the results of the studies in 2009 and 2014 that _____．

A． the research findings are practical in indoor decoration

B． solid evidence is inadequate to prove how colors affect us

C． a larger study may help confirm colors’ effects on our behaviors

D． walls should be painted different colors depending on different tasks

Bottled water has become the choice for people who are healthy and thirsty. Bottled water is all over the world. But some say the planet’s health, and people’s health may be suffering from it.

The idea that bottled water is safer for humans may not be true. The Natural Resources Defense Council of America said, “There is no promise that because water comes out of a bottle, it is cleaner or safer than water from the tap.” Another New York City-based action group added that some bottled water is “really just tap water in a bottle—sometimes more clean, sometimes not.”

It is not proven that bottled water is better than tap water. Nick Reeves from the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management said, “The high mineral content(含量) of some bottled water makes them not good for feeding babies and young children.” Also, most bottled water doesn’t have fluoride(氟化物), which can make teeth stronger. Kids are drinking more bottled water and less fluoridated tap water, and some say that’s behind the recent rise in bad teeth.

Storing is another problem. Placed near heat, the plastic bottles can produce bad chemicals(化學(xué)物質(zhì)) into the water.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, some 2.7 million tons of plastic are used worldwide to bottle water each year. The plastic can take between 400 and 1,000 years to break down.

In terms of energy use, plastic bottles are also not cheap. One report said that if water and soft drink bottlers had used 10 percent recycled materials in their plastic bottles, they would have saved about 72 million gallons of gas.

So, if you are worried about the effect of bottled water on the Earth, you can take the following steps.

●Drink from your tap. Unless your government warns against this, it should be fine.

●Get a container(容器). Carry your tap water in a steel or a lined drinking container, and clean it between uses.

●Keep it cool. Don’t drink from a bottle that has been sitting in the sun, don’t store it near chemicals, and don’t reuse plastic bottles.

●Choose glass containers over plastic if possible. When finished, recycle!

1.What is the main idea of the article?

A. Drinking tap water is the only choice for people.

B. Glass containers are better than plastic bottles.

C. Plastic bottles are harmful to the environment.

D. Bottled water may not be as good as we think.

2.What can we learn about plastic bottles from the article?

A. They break down in less than 300 years.

B. They can be used for many other things.

C. They are a risk to the environment.

D. They are cheap to make.

3.According to the article, we can know that bottled water is ______.

A. no problem for the environment

B. more expensive than tap water

C. always safer than tap water

D. better for babies

4.Which of the following about tap water is NOT mentioned in the article?

A. There are a lot of problems storing tap water.

B. Bottled water can be just tap water in a bottle.

C. It may be better for your teeth.

D. It may contain fluoride.

Selfie

Social media and the mobile web have given rise to a strange phenomenon called the selfie(自拍). It refers to a picture of yourself, usually shared on any social networking website.

1. Some selfies are extreme close-ups(特寫(xiě)鏡頭), and others show part of an arm held straight outward. A few of them even feature the subject standing in front of a bathroom mirror.

Everyone takes selfies, but the younger crowd seems to be especially involved in the trend. Young people are relatively heavier digital users. They are interested in staying connected to their friends. 2.

There are also kinds of psychological factors driving people to take a selfie and upload it to a social networking site. 3. A quick and easy way to attract other's attention is to get "likes" and comments from friends. Secondly, it's human nature to show off your own great achievements. When you feel good about yourself or look good, it's far too easy to take out your phone and document it all through one or several selfies. 4. That's right. Sometimes people are bored at work, bored at school, bored at home and even bored on the toilet. Last but not least, social media is about being social! If that means uploading as many selfies as possible, then so be it. It's fun, and it's a cool way to sort of document your own life.

Finally, there are things to be mindful of when you're posting. It's easy to think you're sharing a photo with a few people. 5. So don't post anything online, selfie especially.

A. There are lots of selfie styles.

B. The rise of selfies has become universal.

C. Social media, to some extent, is the driving force of their selfie activity.

D. The desire to take, post and get "likes" on selfies goes back to a biological behavior.

E. But the whole world of social media is public and every individual can get access to it.

F. There are also people who will take selfies because they have nothing else better to do.

G. The leading factor is that people want to get attention from as many people as possible.

The world’s richest man might seem to have it all, but Bill Gates has one regret. The self-made billionaire said he felt stupid for not knowing any foreign languages.

Speaking in his third Ask Me Anything question-and-answer session for online forum Reddit(紅迪網(wǎng)), the Microsoft founder said that he wished he spoke French, Arabic or Chinese.

He said: “I took Latin and Greek in high school and got A’s and I guess it helps my vocabulary. I keep hoping to get time to study one of these—probably French because it is the easiest. I did Duolingo for a while but didn’t keep it up.”

Gates, who is worth $79.3 billion, praised Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for surprising an audience in Beijing when he spoke fluent Chinese. “Mark Zuckerberg amazingly leamed Chinese and did a Q&A with Chinese students—unbelievable, isn’t it?” he said.

This isn’t the first time for Gates to admit his regret over language. He also showed his habits at home and personal insights.

Last February, Gates said he likes to do the dishes himself—to his own special standards every night and also told the interviewer that his wife, Melinda, would likely want Samuel L. Jackson to play her husband in a biopic(傳記片).

He also admitted that he would pick up a $100 bill if he found it on the street.

As he took the top spot on Forbes(福布斯)28th Annual Billionaires list last year for the fourth time, he said he is pretty basic when it comes to so ending on clothes and food, but that he enjoys investing in shoes and racquets(球拍)when he plays tennis.

When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way, the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break. “Don’t stay up too late even if the book is really exciting. You will regret it in the morning. Pam still working on this problem,” he said.

1. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

A. An Interview with Bill Gates

B. How Bill Gates Succeeded

C. Bill Gates’ Regret

D. The Richest Billionaire

2. The underlined part in Paragraph 8 may actually mean that_____.

A. it is important to lay a good foundation of life

B. food and clothing are basic needs for people’s life

C. he doesn’t spend much money on food and clothes

D. he never cares about buying food and clothing

3.What advice did Bill Gates give?

A. Avoid staying up too late.

B. Be a good language learner.

C. Do the dishes yourself at home.

D. Pick up the $100 bills in the streets.

4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Bill Gates is also the founder of Facebook

B. Bill Gates topped the list of Forbes 28 times.

C. Bill Gates was good at learning languages in high schoo1.

D. Bill Gates’ wife wants Samuel to play a game with Gates.
