Girls really prefer pink and boys prefer blue, recent research shows.

The reasons could have its origins in the hunt for food on the African savannah(稀樹草原) thousands of years ago. Evolution may have developed women’s preference for pink, perhaps because it helped to find ripe fruit and healthy men with reddish faces, while both men and women have a natural desire for blue, according to scientists at Newcastle University.

“ Everyone in today’s western culture, from parents to toy manufactures, seems to assume that little girls like pink.” Said Prof. Anya Hulbert, who wanted to find out whether the reason was cultural or to do with biology.

A love of salmon, fuchsia and coral does seem to be rooted into females, rather than picked up from their mothers.

The participants in the study were Chinese and British. The Chinese students showed a marked preference for red, “ Culture may contribute to this natural female preference,” said Pro. Hulbert.

In her experience, 208 young adult men and women were asked to select, as rapidly as possible, their preferred color. Hulbert and her colleague Dr. Yazhu Ling marked the results and found that while men preferred blue, women tended to choose pink.

Hulbert said she could only prefer about the preference for blue: “ Here again, I would favor evolutionary arguments. Going back to our savannah days, we would have a natural preference for a clear blue sky, because it signaled good weather. Clear blue also signals a good water source.”

 

51. The passage mentions “ the African savannah” to show that_____.

   A. the ancient Africa was a a beautiful place

   B. human beings lived in Africa at first

   C. women and men have different color preference

   D. color preference has its historical origins

52. It can be inferred that the underlined word “ fuchsia”_____.

   A. is probably a kind of toy

   B. is probably pink in color

   C. can be only found in Africa

   D. hardly causes men’s interest

53. By saying “ the Chinese students for red.” In Para. 5, the writer means_____.

   A. red is the Chinese students’ favorite color

   B. the Chinese prefer red more than the British

   C. culture influences people’s color preferences

   D. the study was carried out by two nations

54. What can we know from the last paragraph?

   A. Hulbert thinks evolution explains why people prefer blue.

   B. Hulbert has a strong desire for “savannah days”.

   C. Blue is a natural signal of many good things
