In 1975, George Carlin appeared on a popular TV show, Saturday Night Live, with his famous words about blue food. “Why is there no blue food? I can’t find blue food—I can’t find the flavor of blue! I mean yellow is lemon; orange is orange and red is cherry. Where is the blue food? ”

Well, Carlin pretty much has it right—there’s not no blue food, but there’s certainly not a lot of it. Fresh-picked blueberries are blue, though they become purple when they are turned into jam. The blue in blueberries—like the purple in grapes and the red in tomatoes—is found in nature. But it isn’t a hot color for food. People don’t seem to prefer blue food. Some diet programs even suggest that those determined to lose weight should make their food blue.

Eating, in part, begins with our eyes. Charles Spence—an experimental psychologist from Oxford University—points out that color can change our taste experience. Commonly, we consider red-colored foods up to 20% sweeter than they actually are; and green foods as being more sour. Spence suggests: human expectations may be influenced by our long history of watching - green fruits can become sweet as they grow up and turn red.

But what about blue? Except blueberries, much of the blue food we see these days is dyed blue artificially. Food producers argue that artificial color doesn’t do much harm to health. A lot of research shows that some physical problems of kids are related to food dyes—while other studies show no effects at all. Blue birthday cake or even blue-dyed chicken can be served on the dinner table. So what?

1. George Carlin’s words are placed at the beginning of the passage to _______.

A. show the author’s opinion

B. introduce a TV show

C. tell a famous person

D. lead in the topic

2.. Which of the following statements of blue is true?

A. Blueberries are always blue, whether fresh or not.

B. The blue in blueberries is found unnatural.

C. Blue is not a very popular color for foods.

D. People often feel cold when they eat blueberries.

3.Eating sometimes begins with our eyes because _______.

A. our taste experience can be influenced by color

B. red-colored food are 20% sweeter than green food

C. people prefer red-colored food to green food

D. before eating, people watch food for a long time

4.The underlined words “is dyed” in Para. 4 are closest in meaning to “_______”.

A. is eaten up B. has grown up

C. is changed in color D. is harmful to

The majority of astronauts（宇航員）from America have been men．At the start of the space programme there was strong resistance from some people against having women in space．However, some women were very keen to become astronauts and in the end they were successful．In 1978, NASA began the first training programme for women astronauts．

Judy Resnick and Christa McAuliffe were both astronauts and they were both women, but in many other ways they were very different．Both of them were on Flight STS-5L-L．Judy Resnick was born in 1949 and studied engineering at university and went on to obtain a PhD in 1977．She was a member of the first group of women selected for astronaut training in 1978, and in 1984, she became the second woman in space．During that flight, she helped to launch three new satellites and she carried out a programme of research．She was, in many ways, a professional astronaut whose whole life was devoted to space travel．

Christa McAuliffe was born in 1948 and she was an astronaut almost by accident．In 1984, NASA decided to find a teacher who could accompany astronauts into space．They hoped that she would be able to communicate with students from space and encourage every one of them to be interested in space travel．Christa was a secondary teacher in history and social studies．She was a gifted teacher and she was selected from over 11,000 applicants to go on flight STS-51-L．She was also a very good communicator and she immediately established a very good relationship with the news media(radio, television and newspapers）．It was partly because of this that there was a great deal of interest and excitement about the flight．Thousands of students in schools and universities all around the country were looking forward to communicating with Christa in space．Millions of people were watching her flight with great interest．It is partly because of the excitement over McAuliffe's place in the flight that the disaster in 1986 had such an effect on people．

I may not be the wisest person on this planet. but I will tell you a little secret to happiness: Help other,, and live life. It is that simple. Just help a friend study for a test, or volunteer at a nursing home . I learned this after a long, hard search.

I was feeling really down because my long4ime friend had died. Then I started a six-week volunteering at a nursing home all day every Saturday. My routine was to serve the meal and clean up. After that, I would wait for the head nurse to tell me what to do.

One day I was told to go to Room 117 to make sure the patient was all righL. In the room I found a boy of eight sitting in his bed watching a movie. I was shocked to see a child in this seemingly forgotten nursing home for the old. He was so small and weak that you had to look closely to find him. He motioned for me to sit down. I grabbed his medical chart from which later I found out he had a terminal illness.

We started to talk, and I found out that his family rarely visited, and all he did ever7 day was watch TV. I wanted to cry for him, and for my lost friend. As we talked, he had a smile on his face, and I asked him why.

"The entire two hours I've been here you've never lost that smile. With this horrible disease, how do you still manage to stay happy?"

He thought for a moment, and then said that too many people are dead even before they die.

They walk around feeling that God has cursed (詛咒) them and that they have nothing to live for.

The boy said that he would not be like that. He wakes every morning thankful to see another sunrise. He keeps his window open so that he can smell the flowers and feel the heat of the sun. He also said that he has hope.

"Too many people haven't seen much of that around here," he said," Life is full of hope and we need to live life before it is gone. "

I don’t know what happened to him. I assume he passed away, but his lesson lives on. I now wake up and live each day to the fullest. The key to life is not money or fame, but the lessons we learn from it.

1.The nursing home in the passage is mainly for _

A. the elderly B. the homeless

C. the disabled D. the abandoned

2.The boy stayed happy mainly due to .

A. wonderful TV programs

B. his positive attitude

C. good medical condition

D. others' encouragement

3.The writer participated in the volunteering job in order to .

A. find out the secret

B. search for help

C. enrich experiences

D. get out of sadness

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. A Lesson in Hope

B. The Life of a Sick Boy

C. A Voluntary Job

D. The Meaning of Life
