Question

【題目】There are many colours in nature. But do you know that a colour has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment(實驗).

First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes. Wrap(包裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.

Why does it happen? A scientist found that different colours have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind. The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white. The scientists told us that colours also have smell. Can you smell the colour? Of course not. Then why did the scientists say so? That is because every colour represents a kind of light wave(光波)------ a certain wavelength(波長). It reaches our brain(大腦) through organs(感覺器官)

According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colour they like, and refuse the colour they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture(家具) for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only one hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change when we see different colours.

【2】Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Different colours have different weights in a man’s mind.

B. The colour “blue” is the second heaviest colour in a man’s mind.

C. People can’t smell the colours.

D. The colour you don’t like will keep you healthy.

【3】What will happen when you get into a cool coloured room from a warm coloured room?

A. You will feel excited. B. You will be happy and contented.

C. Your temperature will fall. D. You will be nervous.

【解析】

文章大意：自然有許多顏色�？茖W家發(fā)現(xiàn)不同的顏色在人的頭腦中有著不同的重量。也就是說，每一種顏色都有自己的重量。最重的顏色是紅色，然后是藍色、綠色、橙色、黃色和白色�？茖W家告訴我們，顏色也有氣味。但不能聞到這種顏色。人們感覺顏色有氣味是因為每種顏色代表一種有特定波長的光而已；但人們可以接受自己喜歡的顏色，充分利用自己喜歡的顏色。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中的句子根據(jù)第三段中The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.在人的頭腦中最重的顏色是紅色，然后是藍色、綠色、橙色、黃色和白色�？芍�白色在人的心目中是最輕的，故答案選D。

【2】理解判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind. The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white. .

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall.可知如果一個人走出了一個紅色的房間，進入一個藍色的房間，他的體溫會下降。故答案選C。
