What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red?  小題1:Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings.  小題2: 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
 小題3: A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.  小題4: A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides(自殺) than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
小題5: It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or gray.
A.On the other hand, black is depressing.
B.They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as grow up—we are born with our preference.
C.The rooms are pained in different colors as you like.
D.If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.
E. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.
F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colors.
G. Colors do influence our moods-there is no doubt about it.

The 47-year-old singer talks about the new album Symphony(交響樂) that came out of a “very dark time”, including her decision to give up trying to have children. “People have suggested I could adopt,” Brightman says. “But work is central to my life now. And so I am going to put it to one side. After a while not having children becomes the norm and perhaps that might sound alarming, to parents especially, but I have never known anything different. I’m not hurt by not having children. My life and career are incredibly rich.”
Talking about growing up in a large family in Berkhamsted (father a property developer who later committed suicide), she says: “I was gifted as a child, and very musical. I seemed to be good at anything to do with the arts. At 5,I understood the music I was dancing to and had an eye for costume.” She first appeared in a West End musical at 11 and hated boarding school.
Brightman led the saucy dance troupe(辣妹三人舞) Hot Gossip and had her first hit with I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper in 1978. At 18 she married a music manager called Andrew Graham Stewart. “I was probably in love but I can’t remember. Girls change such a lot between 18 and 22. It didn’t really work out.” In 1981 she was spotted by Lloyd Webber. She became his leading lady in Song and Dance, Requiem and Phantom of the Opera. They married in 1984.
Brightman says she felt hostility(敵意) “from the beginning. I haven’t tried to understand it. I’ve done very well everywhere else, especially the US, where I now live, I just accept it for what it is. The more you are away from Britain, the more you appreciate it. But I don’t miss it, although I miss my family. Our profession can be uncomfortable but I enjoy what I do. I get on with it.”
小題1: The first paragraph tells us that _____.
A.Brightman is very popular around the world except in America
B.Brightman’s musical style is a mixture of opera, pop and jazz
C.the British people don’t like her for her style of music
D.Brightman is much older than Andrew Lloyd Webber
小題2: Brightman decided to give up having children because _____.
A.she could adopt one
B.her life and career were unbelievably rich without children
C.she felt it normal not to have children
D.she was too busy
小題3:The following statements are true except ______.
A.Brightman first appeared in a West End musical at 5
B.Brightman disliked life on the campus
C.Brightman was very gifted when she was young
D.The saucy dance troupe made Brightman famous
小題4:The underlined word in the fourth paragraph probably means _____.
A.locatedB.a(chǎn)dmiredC.followedD.found
小題5: What does the author try to say in the last paragraph by quoting Brightman’s words?
A.Brightman has to accept the fact that she is not liked in Britain
B.Brightman lives in America but she loves her own country
C.The British coldness towards Brightman led to her hatred to her homeland
D.Brightman was at a loss why she was not welcome in Britain

Recently, one of my best friends, whom I’ve shared just about everything with since the first day of kindergarten, spent the weekend with me.Since I moved to a new town several years ago, we’ve both always looked forward to the few times a year when we can see each other.

Americans use many expressions with the word “dog”. People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well. They take their dogs for walks, let them play outside and give them good food and medical care. However, dogs without owners to care for lead a different kind of life. The expression “to lead a dog’s life” describes a person who has an unhappy existence.
Some people say we live in a dog-eat-dog world. That means many people are competing for the same things, like good jobs. They say that to be successful, a person has to work like a dog. This means they have to work very, very hard. Such hard work can make people dog-tired. And, the situation would be even worse if they became sick as a dog.
Still, people say every dog has its day. This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. To be successful, people often have to learn new skills. Yet, some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks. They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.
People who are unkind or uncaring can be described as meaner than a junkyard dog. Junkyard dogs live in places where people throw away things they do not want. Mean dogs are often used to guard this property. They bark or attack people who try to enter the property. However, sometimes a person who appears to be mean and threatening is really not so bad. We say his bark is worse than his bite.
Doghouse provide shelter but they can be cold and lonely in the winter. Husbands and wives use this doghouse term when they are angry at each other. For example, a woman might get angry at her husband for coming home late or forgetting their wedding anniversary. She might tell him that he is in the doghouse. However, the husband may decide that it is best to leave things alone and not create more problems. He might decide to let sleeping dogs lie.
Dog expressions also are used to describe the weather. The dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year. A rainstorm may cool the weather. But we do not want it to rain too hard. We do not want it to rain cats and dogs.
小題1:The passage tells us something about________.
A.dogs and their lifeB.the expressions that describe dogs
C.the meaning of expressions with the word “dog”D.the structures of dog expressions
小題2: By saying _______, we compare people to dogs in bad ways.
A.“meaner than a junkyard dog”B.“to work like a dog”
C.“teach an old dog new tricks”D.“as sick as a dog”
小題3:By saying ________, we mean every person enjoys a successful period in life.
A.“he lives in a dog-eat-dog world”B.“he leads a dog’s life”
C.“he is in the doghouse”D.“every dog has its day”
小題4: If we advise the others to leave things alone and not create more problems, we say_______.
A.“become sick as a dog”B.“rain cats and dogs”
C.“l(fā)et sleeping dogs lie”D.“stay in the doghouse”
小題5: It has been really hot these days, as _______.
A.it rains cats and dogsB.we are having the dog days of summer

There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers, he used two buckers. One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one, which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.
Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I don't know why he still bothers with you. What a waste of space you are!”
And all that the old bucket could say was, “I know I’m not very useful, but I can only do my best. I’m happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.”
One day, the gardener heard that kind or conversation. After watering the flowers as usual, he said, “You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back. I want you to look carefully along the path.”
Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare (光禿禿的)earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.
小題1:What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?
A.DirtyB.Dark
C.Worn-outD.Plain-looking.
小題2:What was the old bucket ashamed of?
A.His past.B.His aging.
C.His manner.D.His leaking.
小題3:The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to         
A.laugh at the old one
B.take pity on the old one
C.show off its beautiful looks
D.praise the gardener’s kindness
小題4:Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?
A.Because it was used to keep a balance
B.Because it stayed in its best condition
C.Because it was taken as a treasure
D.Because it had its own function
