What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, red? 小題1:Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist(悲觀主義者). At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours 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 grey.
A.On the other hand, black is depressing.
B.They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as grow up --- we are born with our preference.
C.The rooms are painted in different colours 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 colours make people not only happier but more active.
F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.
G. Colours do influence our moods---there is no doubt about it.

Teaching kids to fish sometimes puzzles us parents. Now I’d like to give you a few tips.
First of all, start them young.
Get them in a boat, or on a pier(碼頭), or on the bank at as young an age as you possibly can. Obviously this means being extremely conscious about their safety. Whatever you do, DON’T plan on any fishing yourself. If fishing is going to happen, the fishing will be done by the kids with your help! This lets you pay attention to them and not ignore them while you fish.
Next, make sure you plan the first trips to someplace where you can actually catch a lot of fish. At this point, it doesn’t matter what kind or how big, just make sure they can catch some. A small child’s patience is very short, and waiting 30 minutes for a bite will turn them off in a hurry. You may need to go to a small pond where the fish are dying to eat bread balls. Any type of fish will do. Remember, this is for them, not for you.
As they fish, cheer for every fish they catch. Make a really big deal out of it. Take pictures. And if it’s possible, take some home to clean. Let the child help you clean with a table knife, so he can’t get hurt.
Make sure he makes and sees the connection from catching to cleaning to cooking. As soon as you have the fish cleaned, it’s into the kitchen to start cooking. Make him flour and cornmeal the fish. Let him see the fish cooking, and talk about how good they are. Then when it’s ready, make sure you brag(吹噓) on the fact that he (or she ) caught these fish, and “aren’t they good?”
In this way, I’m sure your kids will be interested in fishing and good at fishing.

It was a quarter past nine as Marie hurried into the office building where she would be working. Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided she would start out half an hour earlier the next day. Once inside the building, she had to stand at the lifts and wait several minutes before one arrived. When she finally reached the office marked "King Enterprises," she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no answer. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no reply. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in. Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had had the interview with Mr. King, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking. At the far end of the room, somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her. Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others. Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any mind to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. King, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realized that the day's work in the office began just before Mr. King arrived. Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same train every morning, arriving in the office at 9:35, so that his staff knew exactly when to start working.

.
When coal is burned in a boiler, two kinds of ash by-products are produced: a heavy bottom ash and a fine-as-powder fly ash. About 10 to 15 percent of the coal by-product is bottom ash which is used like sand on streets and highways covered with ice, and also on highways as paving material.
It is the fly ash, however, that is receiving much attention. Once considered a waste, fly ash is now regarded as a natural resource in the United States. It can be placed in some lower places, where it is compacted(壓實) and covered with soil, for the seeds of various grasses and plants to be placed in the soil to make the land productive.
Fly ash may be added to concrete (混凝土)to build roads and other kinds of buildings, taking the place of the cement(水泥) up to 20 percent. As a by-product of burned coal, fly ash requires no extra energy to be produced, while cement production requires great amounts of energy.
Besides, the technology is able to take out some useful minerals from the fly ash, which is still a very expensive process today. But the time may come when it is cheaper to take out these products from ash than to mine new supplies.
49. The bottom ash can be put on icy streets________.
A. in order to rebuild them          B. in order to make them colorful
C. so that people can walk on them   D. so that cars can run faster
50. The fly ash can be used to________.
A. grow various plants   B. take the place of soil
C. cover productive land       D. make more productive land
51. Which of the following is right?
A. To produce fly ash, some extra coal is to be burned.
B. Fly ash is made while producing cement.
C. It takes less energy to produce fly ash than cement.
D. Fly ash is a costless by-product.
52. The word “mine” in the last sentence of the passage means_______.
A. to buy things from other countries
B. to search for useful materials in the mountains
C. to dig deeply into the ground to get useful materials
D. to take out certain materials from other things

When Joe Bates was twelve years old, he lost interest in school. He stopped listening in his classes. Some of his teachers began to consider him a problem.
But a few of Joe’s teachers thought that Joe might have lost interest in schoolwork because he already understood it. They proposed that Joe try taking a university class in computer science. Joe did. He was the best student in the class. Later tests showed that his intelligence and knowledge were far greater than most children of his age. He entered university when he was thirteen, about four years earlier than most children. And by the time he was in his early twenties, Joe was teaching computer science at a university.
Joe’s story shows what can happen when a child’s unusual ability is recognized. Sadly, however, not all gifted children get this recognition. And educational experts say unusually gifted children may waste their abilities if they do not get help to develop them.
Studies show that almost twenty percent of students who fail to complete high school in the United States are gifted children.This is because gifted children can have special problems as well as special abilities. Teachers may not recognize their abilities or may not know how to keep them interested. Or they may consider such students to be troublemakers or rebels.
Gifted children may feel lonely or different because they do not know other children who share their interests.
Educators say there are more than two million gifted children in the United States today.  But they say fewer than half are taking part in special education programs designed for them.
One of the most successful programs is held every summer at John Hopkins University in the state of Maryland, where Joe Bates went to school. It started in 1980 when educators saw that there must be many children like Joe.
At first, only 100 children took part in it, and now more than 1,000 children between the ages of nine and sixteen are students in the summer program.
The John Hopkins program provides studies in math and science. It also has classes for children with unusual ability in language and writing. The children study the same subject every day for several weeks. It could be biology, or history, or literature. In those few weeks, they learn as much as in a normal nine-month school year.
William Durden, the director says the program succeeds because it permits children to make progress more quickly than in a traditional program. And the children get to meet others like themselves.
49. Joe Bates stopped listening in his classes because __________.
A. he lost interest in school
B. he hated those teachers who considered him a problem
C. he had already understood what he was taught
D. he wanted to take a university class
50. When a child’s unusual ability is recognized, __________.
A. he can do whatever he likes
B. he will no longer be considered to be a troublemaker or rebel
C. he may have more success than most children of his age
D. he will certainly take part in a special education program
51. According to the passage, the most important thing is to __________.
A. recognize and develop gifted children’s unusual abilities
B. design and support special education programs for gifted children
C. help gifted children get to meet others who share their interests
D. encourage gifted children instead of treating them as a problem
52. Many gifted students fail to complete high school in the United States because _________.
A. they take part in traditional education programs
B. their unusual abilities are not recognized 
C. their teachers don’t know how to keep them interested in schoolwork
D. they have special problems as well as special abilities.

The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water.This may seem strange to you,since nearly 70 percent of the earth's surface is covered with water.But about 97 percent of this huge amount is sea water, or salt water.Man can only drink and use the other 3 percent-the fresh water from rivers,lakes,underground,and other sources.And we cannot even use all of that,because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glacier.Even worse,some of it has been polluted.
However,as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water is still enough for us.But our need for water is increasing rapidly-almost day by day.Only if we take steps to deal with this problem now can we avoid a severe worldwide water shortage later on.
We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water.One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it.
Today in most large cities,water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system.From there it returns to the sea or runs into underground storage tanks.But it is possible to pipe used water to a purifying plant.There it can be treated with chemicals so that it can be used again,just as if it were fresh from a spring.
But even if every large city purified and reused its water,we still would not have enough.All we'd have to do make use of the vast reserves of sea water in the world is to remove the salt.
If we take these steps we'll be in no danger of drying up.
56.The world is thirsty for water because we can only use      percent of the water covering the surface of the earth.
A.3    B.more than 3    C.less than 3    D.97
57.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
A.As things remain unchanging,this small amount of fresh water is still enough for us.
B.Our need for water is becoming larger and larger.
C.There will be no water shortage in the future.
D.We should take steps to deal with the water shortage problem.
58.To reuse water, we should              
A.treat it with chemicals              B.use it only once
C.send it out into a sewer system       D.make it flow into underground tanks
59.In order to have enough water.we should also make use of          
A.icebergs and glaciers    B.sea water
C.rivers and lakes        D.underground water
