B [20巧•安徽合肥高三第三次質(zhì)檢]
The secret to a better cup of morning coffee might simply be choosing the right coloured coffee mug(杯).
The colour of a coffee mug can have something to do with the way coffee tastes, according to a recent study, which was conducted in Australia, and tested the influence that three different coloured mugs—one white, one blue, and one clear glass―had on the perception(感知)of different tastes. The researchers served 18 participants the same cup of cof?fee, in one of the three similarly shaped but differently col?oured containers, and then asked them to rate their sweet?ness, smell, bitterness, quality, and acceptability.
It turns out specifically that the white mug was associat?ed with a more intense (濃的)or bitter tasting cup of coffee, and the clear glass mug was not. The blue mug, meanwhile, proved to be "kind of an in-between. ,, The opposite was true for perceived sweetness―participants noted less sweetness when drinking from the white mug than they did when drink?ing from both the blue and clear glass mugs.
Research published this year shows that the colour of a plate has a clear effect on taste intensity and sweetness. And the colour red specifically has even been associated with lower levels of consumption.
A red strawberry looks redder when placed against a white plate than it does against a black one. And there are as?sociations with that redness that in turn can affect taste, Spence explains. "Red might indicate heightened sweetness, because red fruits tend to be more ripe than green fruits," he said. And that indication can be enough to cause a large difference in taste.
In the case of coffee, specifically, the researchers believe that the colour brown might be something people associate with bitterness. "The white mug may have influenced the perceived brownness of the coffee and this, in turn, may have influenced the perceived intensity and sweetness of the cof-fee," the researchers wrote. That would help explain why clear glass coffee mugs tended to have the opposite effect.
5.After being served the coffee, the participants were asked to_________ ,
A. distinguish the colours of the mugs
B. exchange the ideas about the tastes
C. judge the mug's influence on the coffee
D. give an overall description of the coffee
6.Participants considered the coffee in the white mugs
A. the bitterest
B. the least intense
C. the sweetest
D. neither intense nor bitter
7. According to Spence, a white container could .
A. get the fruit in it riper
B. keep the taste of food inside it
C. make the red fruit in it look even redder
D. reduce the sweetness of the fruit in it
8. If you prefer a clear mug for drinking coffee, it might indi?cate that you .
A. don't mind the colour of coffee
B. would like a sweeter taste of coffee
C. are accustomed to the bitterness of coffee
D. are interested in the brownness of the coffee

B
First Lady Michelle Obama is a big fan of volunteering. Volunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs Obama says volunteering is very important. "It should be part of everyone's life," she says.
Many teenagers agree. They say that helping others makes them feel great and makes a difference. These days, more teenagers volunteer than work for pay. Teenagers clean up parks? walk dogs at animal shelters, visit the elderly and more.
Some cities―including Seattle, Chicago, and Washington D. C. ―require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to gradu?ate. The student volunteers learn new skills and help their communities.
Many parents are in favour of the idea―they say volunteering helps teen?agers build job skills. But most teenagers don't want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say volunteering is only fun if it's a choice.
Read both sides of the debate and decide.
YES
Volunteering can help teenagers get into college or get a job.
Many cities and towns need help. Volunteers can help keep important programmes going.
Not all teenagers will volunteer if it isn't required. Schools should require students to do all they can to get ready for adult life.
NO
Most teenagers are already very busy with classes, homework, jobs and sports. Forcing them to do more isn't fair.
It should be up to each person. Helping out doesn't feel as good if you have to do it.
Finding a volunteer job isn't always easy. Students shouldn't be kept from graduating because of something they can't control.

I was never very neal, while my room-mate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place but mine always hid somewhere. She even labelled (貼標(biāo)簽) everything. I always looked for every?thing. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. So we both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, "Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!" Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled(爬)under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
Slowly I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. 1 got so into my work that I even didn't notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression was such disbelief. Then , she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, "Thanks.,,
Kate and I stayed room-mates for the rest of the year. We didn't always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
